Zifa has accused Cosafa president Philip Chiyangwa of pushing for the ban against his home country from the regional bloc "for a crime he individually committed" through making the "unauthorised bid" to host this year's Cosafa Cup tournament.
Cosafa last week announced that Zimbabwe could be banned from participating in the 2020 edition of the tournament and face further isolation until they pay a US$200 000 fine for reneging on their promise to host the Cosafa tournament this year.
Zifa, who are reportedly considering pulling out of the regional bloc, said in a statement yesterday that they would continue to push their motion to revoke Chiyangwa's Cosafa presidency.
