has shared an update regarding the health of former Bafana Bafana coach Shakes Mashaba, who is undergoing treatment for prostate cancer and tuberculosis (TB).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The news of Mashaba&#8217;s health issues has led to a wave of support from the football community in South Africa, with fans, former players, and peers expressing their wishes for the beloved coach\u2019s swift recovery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response to reports on his condition, Maile visited Mashaba and found that the former coach remains optimistic despite his health struggles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAfter receiving news of his ill health, we paid a courtesy visit to Coach Mashaba and are pleased to report that he is in high spirits and remains positive,\u201d said Maile.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The MEC urged the public to keep the former coach in their thoughts and prayers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe wish him a speedy recovery and urge members of the public to keep him in their prayers,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Maile has cautioned against individuals who may be taking advantage of Mashaba&#8217;s condition by soliciting money under misleading circumstances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe also caution against extortionists who are fraudulently using his name to solicit money from the public,\u201d Maile noted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This caution comes in light of reports claiming that some have been asking for donations to help with Mashaba\u2019s medical costs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maile emphasized that any genuine fundraising efforts will be communicated through official channels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA formal statement will be issued with the correct details for Good Samaritans who may wish to offer support and assistance,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mashaba is regarded as one of South Africa\u2019s most esteemed football figures, having led the national team and played a pivotal role in nurturing young football talent throughout his extensive career.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"wedod-2307669480\" class=\"wedod-after-content wedod-entity-placement\"><script
