A dispute has erupted within the executive committee (Comex) of the Fédération Sénégalaise de Football (FSF) concerning the appointment of referees for the Ligue de Football Amateur (LFA) tournament in Ziguinchor. Bacary Cissé, a Comex member and president of the Ziguinchor League, issued a strong statement denouncing serious irregularities in the referee selection process. He has issued an ultimatum, stating the competition in Ziguinchor will proceed without their support if regulations aren't followed. Cissé highlights concerns about unqualified individuals potentially officiating matches, questioning the professionalism and ethical standards of the appointments. He alleges some proposed referees have failed physical tests or faced corruption allegations. This situation poses a threat to the smooth running of the LFA tournament in Ziguinchor and raises broader issues of institutional and regulatory governance within Senegalese football.
