The Fifa normalisation committee (NC), which was appointed in January to run the affairs of the Namibia Football Association (NFA) until 31 May, has been granted an extension until 15 October by the world football body.
NC chairperson Hilda Basson-Namundjebo said in a statement on Friday that the decision to extend their mandate was taken on 15 May, after a recommendation from the Fifa Member Associations Committee, which had deliberated on the matter during April.
Basson-Namundjebo, deputised by Franco Cosmos, Gaby Ahrens, Matti Mwandingi and Vivienne Katjiuongua are tasked to ensure that NFA members, whose executive committees are out of mandate, organise and conduct the relevant elections. Once these elections have been held at member level, the NC must organise and conduct elections for a new NFA executive committee.
The NC will act as an electoral committee, with none of its members eligible for any of the open positions.
Basson-Namundjebo had previously stated they would not have enough time to fulfil their mandate.
Friday’s statement said the NC will ensure that the first and second division leagues, as well as a firm policy framework on corporate governance principles, see the light of day.
The committee will continue to send monthly reports to Fifa on matters relating to Namibian football and on their activities.
