After succeeding Phillip Makgalemele as Botswana Football Association (BFA) president, David Fani got a scare when he discovered on the eve of a general assembly that a clique aligned to his predecessor was hatching a coup. He tells Staff Writer, MQONDISI DUBE that the coup was planned


Mmegi Sport: The BFA general assembly has come and gone, but not without hitches. There were efforts to topple your committee. Do you think this is indicative of the restlessness in local football?

Fani: I normally do not want to speculate but I am aware that there is a small minority in football who seem not to want to see stability in the game.  These are the people who were behind the attempt to sponsor a motion of no confidence in the BFA National Executive Committee. If there is any restlessness in the BFA, it is restricted to this small minority who do not want to give the National Executive Committee a chance to deliver. This minority do not appear to have any ideas of where they would like to take Botswana football if they are given the chance to lead.  This is why they would rather concentrate on discrediting those in the leadership instead of selling their plans of how they will take Botswana football forward.
