The Zimbabwe Football President Philip Chiyangwa has fired the Association’s General Secretary Jonathan Mashingaidze.
ZIFA’s Chief Operations Officer Joseph Mamutse is now the  Acting General Secretary until a substantive figure has been appointed at the organisation’s Extra Ordinary General Meeting to be e held on the 4^th of June.
The decision to fire Mashingaidze was reached Tuesday after Chiyangwa  had influenced the Executive committee which met and denied to renew his contract.
Sources within the troubled Football organisation said Mashingaidze who was employed by the sacked former ZIFA President Cuthbert Dube, was viewed as a threat to Chiyangwa’s shenanigans and shoddy deals hence the expulsion.
“Several attempts to frustrate him were made but they were not successful until they today decided to not renew his contract,” said the sources.
In a statement to the media, ZIFA spokesperson Xolisani Gwesela said the sacking of Mashingaidze was not political.
“ The ZIFA executive committee refused to renew the contract of General Secretary Jonathan Mashingaidze and opted to put him on a retirement,” he said.
