A social media post has sought to clarify comments about Adelaide Migogo, chair of the National Women’s Football Association, and her departure from Morocco during Malawi’s Women’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign.
Felistus Dossi, a FAM executive member and the association’s Competitions Chairperson, was named as the official leader of delegation for the Scorchers throughout the tournament.
It said the Scorchers’ sponsorship deal with National Bank of Malawi was secured by FAM, not the National Women’s Football League.
Only the FAM president, the leader of delegation and FAM secretariat staff remained in Morocco once the rest of the executive returned home.
The clarification follows earlier commentary from football pundit Cliff Kawanga, who had questioned whether Migogo was receiving adequate recognition for her role in the Scorchers’ campaign.
