The Warriors landed in South Africa on Monday morning to take part in the 20th edition of the Cosafa Cup that roars into life tomorrow in Nelson Mandela Bay in the Eastern Cape.

While Zifa could not shed light into the reasons behind the drama, immigration sources told Chronicle Sport that Loga did not have a visa allowing him to enter South Africa, while Harare City coach Chitembwe is said to be blacklisted for yet to be known reasons.

“Give us a few moments we shall be coming back to you with a formal comment,” said Zifa communications and competitions manager Xolisani Gwesela. The Chronicle

Chitapi Edwin not really. Zimbabweans can apply for visas to SA at the time of entry but not everyone can enter SA that way.
Loga is required to apply for a visa before travelling. Haana ma privileges like those accorded Zimbabweans
