Sierra Leone FA bans 19 officials for life

By Daily Sports on September 23, 2017

19 officials of Sierra Leon Football Association have been banned for life by the country’s soccer body for violating the FA and FIFA status.

The officials were banned On Thursday after were said to have taken football related cases to civil courts. However, two of the officials banned for life will not accept the sanction.

The group went to court last month to seek an injunction to stop the current executive running the SLFA.

In July Fifa postponed the SLFA congress and elections while integrity checks on candidates were carried out.

Among those banned is Sanusi Bruski Kargbo, who had declared his intention to run against Isha Johansen in the next SLFA elections.

Kallon FC team manager Amara Kamara insists he will not abide by the ruling.

"We don't recognise the decision because the mandate of the Johansen-led executive expired last month," Kamara told BBC Sport.

"They are being inconsistent as they said in court we're not members of the SLFA and now they say they've banned us.

"This is a joke. We're not bothered by the decision. We're focused because we believe we're on the right track."

Another banned official Kasho Hollande Cole expressed similar sentiments.

"SLFA is a limited company by guarantee, [which means] they can sue or be sued," he pointed out.

"They don't have the mandate but even then how can you ban people without any hearing?
