Tanzania Football Federation has come out to clarify the kind of ban they imposed on Yanga SC official Fredrick Mwakalebela.
Five days ago, the long-serving vice-chairman of the Jangwani giants was imposed with a ban of five years from all football activities and fined Tsh7m for alleged inciteful statements.
The Timu ya Wananchi top official had been accused of inciting the club supporters and members against the TFF and its affiliate bodies, and after a hearing, the federation’s relevant committee found Mwakalebela guilty and consequently banned him.
