Prophet Walter Magaya’s bid for the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) presidency faces uncertainty due to his criminal record. In 2019, Magaya was convicted and fined $700 for selling Aguma, an unapproved drug. This conviction, coupled with numerous lawsuits from ex-lovers, has raised concerns about his suitability for the role.
Magaya, a flamboyant cleric claiming healing powers, owns Yadah FC and initially received support from women’s football administrators for his presidential bid. However, his checkered past now threatens to derail his ambitions. The scrutiny surrounding his candidacy highlights the challenges public figures with controversial histories face when seeking leadership positions.
The ZIFA electoral committee will ultimately decide whether Magaya’s criminal record bars him from running. The outcome will have significant implications for Zimbabwean football, emphasizing the importance of integrity and accountability in public office. As the decision looms, Magaya’s fate hangs in the balance, leaving the football community eagerly awaiting the outcome.
