The Confederation of East and Central Africa (Cecafa) Secretary-General, Nicolas Musonye, is expected to arrive in Dar es Salaam today to start preparations for the regional tourney.
Cecafa will stage Senior Challenge Cup in Dar es Salaam from December 8-22.
The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) Information Officer, Florian Kaijage, said yesterday that Musonye would meet members of the press today to talk about the preparations of the tourney.
The secretary general will also dispatch election forms to TFF to nominate its preferred candidate for the body’s presidential seat.
The forms would be returned to Cecafa secretariat by October 30.
The soccer body will hold its elective assembly December 6-7 in Dar-es-Salaam, but no one has shown interest to replace Uganda’s Dennis Obua whose term will expire before the exercise.
Musonye is already assured of another four years as his post is by appointment.
Only presidential post will be contested for with the elected person appointing his vice among four executive committee members elected by congress.
Countries which will compete in the Challenge Cup are Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan, Eritrea, Djibouti, Zanzibar, Somalia and hosts Tanzania Mainland.
