Former
Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) president, Dr Chiyangwa, and
'other leaders' had been banned by the current ZIFA management from all
'football activities' in Zimbabwe for life, pointing out to
mismanagement of the association during his time as leader.
Dr
Chiyangwa had appealed to FIFA for the life long-ban by ZIFA to be
removed.

Chiyangwa: Right |
And
his request was met last week by the World Football Governing Body.
Dr
Chiyangwa is the current president of the Council of Southern Africa
Football Association (COSAFA) and his association published a
statement showing that the ban by ZIFA on the president had been
reversed by FIFA.
COSAFA
released a statement last week, saying:
"We
can now advise our members that Fifa are of the opinion that the ban
served by Dr Chiyangwa is a nullity as due process was not followed."
