I don't intend to pay bribes: Doeseb

NAMPA
Johnny Johnson Doeseb (JJD), Namibia Football Association (NFA) presidential candidate for the upcoming NFA elections, has called on NFA members to vote for him based on his manifesto.

He said this on Thursday when he launched a 10-page election manifesto containing five pillars aimed at transforming football in the country.

Doeseb, who was the chairperson of the Namibia Premier League for eight years, says in his manifesto: “I speak of ethics, moral integrity, honesty and rebuilding the trust of the public and stakeholder.

“If you start paying bribes you will pay until the end of time; therefore, I'm not intending to pay bribes during this election campaign.”

He added that a breeding ground for bribes is created when leaders exclude others from being part of the set-up and, in the end, people pay bribes to get votes.

“I have a manifesto that I put out to the nation so that they can judge me based on my manifesto come 22 February,” Doeseb said.

He also stated that the Namibian football constitution at the moment is not pro-development and it has therefore created a way for leaders to fight against each other all the time. The five-pillars are: change and development, change and NFA structures, change and leadership, change and cooperation, and trust and financial management.

The NFA congress is slated for 22 February and will see Doeseb vie for the presidency alongside Ranga Haikali, Izak Joseph Fredericks and Johannes Jacob Vries.
