Finally, no candidate list for the presidency of the FTF was retained in the perspective of the elective general assembly on March 9.
The Tunisian Football Federation (FTF) announced, this Friday, February 23, 2023 on Friday, 2023, that after examining the various appeals filed by Maher Ben Aissa, Jalel Tekaya and Wissem Letaif, the three candidate lists for the elections of the next federal office were all rejected.
These three candidates had expressed their wish to chair the FTF by submitting their application on February 17, 2024 in order to contribute to the elections of the new federal office, scheduled for Saturday, March 9.
The independent body for the FTF elections had accepted, initially (February 19) the candidacy of Maher Ben Aissa. The next day, Jalel Tekaya’s candidacy had been retained, in turn when Wissem Letaief announced the withdrawal of his list.
A dramatic blow last night when the FTF announced the rejection of the two lists previously accepted. The appeals filed by the various candidates having all been accepted, the three lists fall into the water and the elections of the new federal office, which were to take place on March 9 are thus canceled.
They were summoned following the arrest of the former president of the FTF, Wadii Jary, on October 25, 2023.
