The CEO will only publish the names of all the approved and endorsed candidates two weeks before the much anticipated elective congress.SAFA has been lambasted by many after one of the presidential candidates, current vice-president,in Johannesburg on Tuesday. This follows a circular sent to all members including Ledwaba, warning her against attending the planned media briefing.

“Currently we don’t have an approved list there are constitutional provisions which need to be followed and if SAFA does not regulate it you run a risk of having people who know that they do not comply calling press conferences lying to the people. So you need to first sort your issues of compliance and once the governance committee comes and says we have screened and this is our report and that report is adopted then we publicise the list that’s what the constitution says.

The SAFA leadership has also dismissed accusations of continuously amending the constitution to protect the incumbent president, Danny Jordaan as well as his current executive.
