Despite the risk she may be disqualified from the race to challenge incumbent Danny Jordaan for the SA Football Association (Safa) presidential elections, Ria Ledwaba appears set to go ahead and launch her campaign on Tuesday.
A media alert from her campaign team this week said the veteran administrator is scheduled to have a press conference in Johannesburg to accept her nomination as Safa’s presidential candidate.
“On April 19, we received all nominations for positions of president, the national list and provincial list for the elective congress to be held on June 25,” Motlanthe’s letter stated. “We therefore reaffirm the position that no nominated person must present himself or herself as a candidate in the public prior to the governance committee having finalised their work and handed the final approved list to the CEO’s office. The CEO will then make the list public,” concluded the letter.
Jordaan, who is running for his third term as president of the association, rose to the top echelons in 2014 when he defeated former vice-president Mandla “Shoes” Mazibuko by a landslide.
