Expunge the BFA rot!

Revelations that the Botswana Football Association (BFA) has been deceiving football fans and the nation at large about FIFA's stance on constituency tournaments are mind-boggling.

At a time when Botswana football is moving towards professionalism, the treachery of the BFA is horrifying.  Coming in the wake of concerns about the absence of audited Premier League financials, this scandal points to another absence - that of honesty in the administration of our football and prudence in the management of its resources.  And perhaps for good effect, our one and only BFA has delivered this with what appears to be malicious aforethought!

There are a lot of unanswered questions in this saga.  What was the BFA's goal?  Were we all along wrong to regard the men and women of the BFA as people of integrity?  And when the mess unravels, it is a relative newly elected, Vice President (Administration) Boyce Sebetela, who comes to face the press.  For what: to catch the flak?  As a trouble-shooter?  Or as the proverbial sacrificial lamb?
