Malose Kutumela aka Papas 15, a Kaizer Chiefs supporter, was the second winner of the MTN8 Last Fan Standing started by MTN last year. The South African public was asked to text the words ‘Wafa Wafa’ to an MTN hotline and Kutumela emerged as the winner.
DiskiOff: How does it feel to be the winner of the second MTN8 Last Fan Standing?
Malose Kutumela: I feel very happy and lucky as there are a lot of people who entered the competition and to be last fan is something very special to me.
What have you done to be The MTN8 Last Fan Standing?
As an MTN customer, I entered the competition by sms’ing the word ‘WAFA WAFA’ to 083 123 wafa/9232 and a day before final we wrote a football trivia quiz which then decided the Last Fan Standing from 8 nominees.
What was the prize?
The ultimate prize fully sponsored by MTN is: A trip to Manchester United at Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams! Package includes flights, transfers, accommodation and match tickets and I will experience a museum and stadium tour of Old Trafford as well as receiving autographed Manchester United merchandise.
How was this year’s MTN8 and were you happy with your team’s performance in the tournament?
I was fairly happy because we lost to a team that were hungrier than my team as they played like the last game of their life.
Which player was the star for you in the tournament?
Andile Jali (Orlando Pirates midfielder)
Which game stood out for you in the tournament?
The final - because it was the game where I was announced as an eventual winner of the Last Fan Standing… very emotional.
What do you think of the PSL raising tickets to R40?
It’s not a bad price at all considering the rentals of new stadiums, but as for the product we are paying for … it’s not worth the money.
Which player is your favourite in Bafana Bafana and why?
Itumeleng Khune (Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper), he is a true role model to a lot of youngsters and disciplined as well.
Which team do you support overseas and why?
Manchester United, for their consistency (coach and players) and striving to be the best on planet earth.
What is your message to South African fans?
Let’s rally behind all our national teams regardless of the age or sex and stop hooliganism in the stadiums and please be MTN customers so that you can also be like me.

What are your last words, Mr. Kutumela?
I would like to send a BIG THANK YOU to MTN for this wonderful opportunity of a life-time and want to say to them…EVERYWHERE YOU GO IS AYOBA! You have really shown us how important we are as football supporters.
