The Atteridgeville-based stadium is in bad condition without a working generator and turnstiles.
"We are not fixing Lucas Moripe Stadium, we are going to play our home matches in Polokwane," Sikhosana tells KickOff.
"We will be using the New Peter Mokaba Stadium not the old one.
"We're not going back to the Lucas Moripe stadium as it has been banned.
"We are not coming back here, we are gone.
"All our remaining home games will be played in Polokwane, including the fixture against Kaizer Chiefs.
"It's been 12 or 15 years of talking one and the same thing with the Tshwane municipality regarding the stadium.
"They are unable to help us."
SuperSport currently occupy second position in the standings and will host TS Galaxy [April 7], AmaZulu [April 23] and Kaizer Chiefs [May 13] in Polokwane.
Matsatsantsa is then also expected to visit Limpopo clubs Marumo Gallants and Sekhukhune United at the same venue.
Meaning five of their remaining eight league matches will be played at their new home ground.
