Israel Nhevera, may have had a wonderfulness match on Saturday, when Herentals thoroughly dominated DeMarriot at Rufaro, but Zifa Exco plot to weaponize referees, is a cancer that will eat and destroy this game, while we all watch, The Page reports.
That Nqobile Magwizi, knowingly broke the law in appointing Ken Ndebele to superintendent over referees, it is a clear statement that he is saying to Hell with FIFA laws, and that he is in charge and acts as he deems fashionable.
But then, football is not a fashion show where characters of exceptional and exuberant hew, like the burly Ndebele, have an endearing image in the eyes of the public.
The performance of referees this season, despite spasmodic excellent officiating by some, is something all arrogant and ignorant leaders can not ignore.
That Magwizi has determined to die or lose his office, as he surely will, to save Ndebele, is not anything football can ignore.
The Zifa assembly, which Magwizi, Ndebele, Thomas Marambanyika and Alice Zeure have plotted to disenfranchise later this July, after the PSL and ZWSL elections slated for the 25th, have watched this and know what they want to do.
Magwizi, oblivious of the source of his power, which he is now abusing, behaving like a king with no subjects, will remember that he was wrong in appointing Ndebele.
And that he is also wrong to not remove him, given all the madness spawn since his appointment.
Magwizi can pretend to be smart or powerful and align himself with Ndebele whom he gave the authority over referees, Marambanyika, whom he gave authority over committees, who are doing nothing and the majority of them have “resigned” or protesting in silence.
Worse, when Marambanyika has also been allowed the freedom to choose the heads of delegation, while Zeure has been given charge of the Constitution, which requires urgent attention.
The irony about Zeure and the constitutional cries, is that despite holding a law degree, she can not even understand the Zifa constitution.
So one wonders why and how Magwizi has elected himself to do all things wrong leaving the correct ones and the legal.
Asi mweya wenzvimbo unobata vanhu kana vapinda paZifa?
Is he for real or is just testing the resolve of the Zifa assembly, who have been watching in frustration while he selects those he wants and ignores the rest?
Well, The Page investigation can reveal Magwizi is determined to fall with Ndebele and that he is not going to do anything to change the situation.
“The Page and his cohorts can go and hang. We are in charge of Zifa and he who doesn’t like what we are doing, can leave and we will not even be worried.
“If the councillors think they have power, let them do zvavanoda tioneka.
“We are not going to be driven by those councillors who act as moles for The Page to cause us confusion.
“Is Ken a referee, who they lambast every week. They can wait for four years, that is if ivo vacho vachiripo then, ” a WhatsApp group conversation for the Exco, which was leaked to The Page show.
The leak, in which an Exco member had asked why nothing was being done to solve the referees committee conundrum.
What Magwizi must remember is that the nation has not forgotten how he was elected on January 25, by the same members of the assembly, who they now treat like lepers.
Just six months old, Magwizi has forgotten that he was elected into Zifa Exco by the 78 members of the assembly.
Now that he listened to Ndebele, Marambanyika and Zeure, who didn’t even support his candidature, Magwizi believes he can break rules and ignore the calls of the assembly.
So, like what Cuthbert Dube in 2015 thought, Magwizi, also feels he is indispensable and that Zifa is his garden tool?
Well, The Page can advise Magwizi that in 2023, Mossad, the Israel intelligence agency, plotted to infiltrate Iran military.
They didn’t use an army general or lieutenants or colonels, they went for a certain French born beauty called Kethrine Perez Sheked.
The beauty stayed and befriended all the high ranking officials and their families and got access to everything.
And for two years, she was relying all info, data and personals to Mossad about all the nuclear engineering and development.
And when she vanished from Iran, without trace, the 12 day war broke out and eight top military generals, seven nuclear scientists and three high ranking intelligence commanders were target killed.
Sheked, whom the top military and intelligence officials had access to, was the weapon used to destroy Iran military and intelligence cauldron.
The war was only stopped, after Sheked, allegedly also disappeared from Israel Mossad grip, causing panic, which reverberated to US President, Donald Trump’s door step.
Where is Kethrine Perez Sheked at the moment? Is Israel bombing Iran? Is US threatening Iran?
Magwizi will be the first one to survive this type of war at Zifa, more so for one whose football understanding and experience is negligible.
He can ask how Felton Kamambo, who ironically had Marambanyika as his inner circle, too, lost power.
Vincent Pamire, Rafik Khan, Wellington Nyatanga, Cuthbert Dube, Phil Chiyangwa all have one thread that was shredded to collapse.
It will be a new research opportunity for students of football politics, to study how Magwizi would have survived this trapdoor of arrogance, using the same modus operandi, featuring Ndebele, Marambanyika and Zeure, of all people.
Perhaps, Magwizi has also forgotten how those three were surprised to be in office on January 25.
Vatokanganwa vese chazuro nehope vatove mikonyora mugan’a.
When close relatives, disagree on a very important matter, they become enemies.
