The congress will be held at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg where incumbent Danny Jordaan, vice-president Ria Ledwaba and Safa Tshwane president Solly Mohlabeng will contest the presidency. According to the federation, ousted Safa Vhembe region leaders approached the courts seeking postponement of the elective congress while a dispute within that region was being resolved. But the court struck the matter off the roll for a lack of urgency.That leadership was removed during the region’s elective congress and the new leadership is rallying behind Jordaan, Safa Limpopo chair Jack Maluleka said.
Safa CEO Tebogo Motlanthe said Safa’s latest triumph in the courts is further confirmation that the association’s members should not be discouraged from voting for leaders of their choice.
