The former football leader was sanctioned by Zifa for bringing the game into disrepute
The Zimbabwe Football Association (Zifa) has handed former president Philip Chiyangwa a life ban for “bringing Zimbabwean football into disrepute”.
Zifa made the decision on Wednesday after a meeting between the Zimbabwe president, Emmerson Mnangagwa, and the Zifa Executive Committee, which was held on August 9 in Harare.
Chiyangwa had been alleged to have circumvented the government by independently placing a bid for this year’s Cosafa Cup, which was held from May 25 to June 8 in South Africa.
