However, in the dying hours before closure of the job application, which is this evening, the BFL office had received only two applications for the CEO job.

He also said the screening process will resume on Monday and the public should then expect the position to be filled anytime from then. "We have just received only two applications for the CEO (job) as of now. The applications are with the (Botswana Football Association) BFA and they will presented to the board tomorrow (Friday) evening while the screening process will start on Monday. Since we did not receive a lot of applications, we do not expect it (the process) to take long and as soon as we are done we will announce the new CEO," Shah said.
