WAFF Election Questions Remain Unanswered
The WAFF has been given the opportunity to respond to questions on apparent election irregularities, but it remains unresponsive.
Our question remains: What does the WAFF have to hide? What agenda were in play which affected the elections?
If the elections were conducted properly, why does the WAFF remain silent on legitimate questions affecting the future of the sport?
We will continue to press for answers.
