//Kharas Football Region (KFR) chairman Emrico Blaauw has resigned from the position with immediate effect, citing compliance with the Namibia Sports Act and the Namibia Football Association (NFA) statutes.
Blaauw confirmed resignation to The Namibian Sport this week.
He says serving as a local authority councillor for the Keetmanshoop Municipality and chairperson for the football body contravenes the sports act.
A letter addressed to NFA acting general secretary Johannes Vries, and seen by The Namibian reads: “I would like to bring under your attention my decision after careful consideration, and as by the NFA statutes, namely Article 36 (5) (f) and section 25 of the Namibia Sports Act, 2003 (Act No.12 of 2003).”
“I would, therefore, like to submit to the AGS to formally receive my resignation with immediate effect as chairman of the ||Kharas Region Football. Me serving would be a non-compliance issue on the side of the NFA in contravention to the Sports Commission Act,” Blaauw says.
Responding to questions from The Namibian Sport, Blaauw says the incoming leadership should align their goals and vision alongside the NFA executive council’s vision and goals.
