FRANCISTOWN: Media investor, Don Moore was elected chairman of controversy ridden soccer club, TAFIC, in a vote where the contestants were missing in action. Moore who co-owns the country’s leading tabloid, The Voice, beat former TAFIC chairman, Humphrey Nawa 19-13 in elections that both men did not attend.

The TAFIC drama continued when the absent Nawa who resigned in controversial circumstances late last year from the chairmanship was once again nominated for the position of vice chairman but lost 18-7 to Emmanuel Tabona. Tayani Chankoloba was third with six votes. 

The elections-in-absentia at TAFIC extended to the other posts.
