Nedbank Citi Dash postponed

NEDBANK Namibia, in conjunction with EY Namibia and the Namibia National Olympic Committee, has announced that the 2017 Nedbank Citi Dash, originally scheduled to take place on Saturday, 24 June, has been deferred until a later date.

According to a press release issued by Nedbank Namibia, the decision was taken as a mark of respect for the legacy of the late Andimba Toivo ya Toivo, who will be laid to rest on the same day. Joan Smit, secretary general of the NNOC, said meanwhile that the Olympic Day, which would have underpinned the Nedbank Citi Dash, will similarly be deferred.Arrangements are currently underway to reimburse the hundreds of runners who have already entered to participate in the Nedbank Citi Dash.
