We have taken note that you claim to have received a letter from FIFA with their alleged “opinion that the Ban served on Dr Chiyangwa is a nullity . . .”

We kindly request you favour us and the rest of the COSAFA membership with that communication from FIFA that allegedly lifted or nullified the Ban as well as mandated Dr Chiyangwa to find solutions in Zimbabwean Football.

ZIFA claim that they wrote a letter to FIFA enquiring for more details related to the ban of Chiyangwa and Mr Omega Sibanda. The association claims that the reply got suggest that nothing was nullified.

The letter comes after COSAFA wrote a letter to ZIFA alleging that FIFA had nullified a life ban on Chiyangwa and his deputy Omega Sibanda.

Chiyangwa had been banned for life by ZIFA for bringing Zimbabwean football into disrepute through the 2019 COSAFA Cup bid fiasco wherein he unilaterally submitted an incomplete bid document without getting a government guarantee and Zifa board resolution.

This attracted a ban on the country from Cosafa where he is president.
