Following the decision of the Fecafoot Electoral Commission published on November 20, only one candidate has been declared eligible for the elections, Tombi a Roko Sidiki.
The other candidates were told to complete their files within 72 hours after which they were declared ineligible.
But, www.lions4life.com has learnt that the Prime Minister instructed that Prof. Joseph Owona should do everything for another candidate to get eligibility for the elections to take place on a level ground.
This explains why the candidates have been given another four days until November 26 to complete their files for elections on November 29.
These are the reasons for the disqualification of the other candidates: DECISION NO 232/FCF/PCN/STCE/2014 ON THE ELIGIBLITY OF CANDIDATES FOR FECAFOOT ELECTIONS
