# The City of Tshwane has approved the renaming of Soshanguve’s Giant Stadium to the Amos Chando Mkhari Stadium, honouring the late soccer legend. Mkhari played for Orlando Pirates and Witbank Spurs, leaving a lasting legacy before he died in 2014. The renaming follows a public participation process and was driven by the Soshanguve Heritage Foundation. Mayoral committee member for Economic Development and Spatial Planning, Sarah Mabotsa, praised the move and called it a tribute to local heroes whose stories shape community identity and pride.
