Football administrators Farai Jere and Walter Magaya have been disqualified from the Zimbabwe Football Association elections after failing to pass an integrity test.
ZIFA announced the list of candidates who will contest the January 25 elections, following a two-week evaluation of the candidates’ suitability.
Farai Jere, cleric Walter Magaya, and former Warriors captain Benjani Mwaruwari are among the notable absentees from the presidential race.
Vocal politician Temba Mliswa is also another casualty of the Integrity Commission.
ZIFA’s regulations demand candidates to be free from pending civil, criminal, or disciplinary proceedings or investigations.
