Highlanders chairperson Peter Dube has been elected new Premier Soccer League boss today.
Dube thrashed his Dynamos counterpart Kenny Mubaiwa by 11 votes to 4.
The PSL chairperson post became vacant after new Zifa president Philip Chiyangwa ordered the league to hold elections to replace Twine Phiri, who was a member of Cuthbert Dube's board which had its mandate revoked last year.
Prior to the elections, Dube had indicated that nothing was going to stop him from winning the poll as he was armed with the necessary requirements coupled with experience in mainstream football administration.
"I think I do qualify in terms of the demands and requirements hence my nomination has gone through the nomination process," he said.
"Confidence can only be indicated by submitting myself for judgment. I'm confident since my colleagues gave me the blessings to be at the helm."
Dube was Phiri's vice chairman during a successful period for the PSL which saw the league solidify their sponsorship agreements with Delta Beverages, SuperSport and NetOne.
The Bosso boss believes this impeccable track record gives him an edge over Mubaiwa when the 16 PSL clubs vote this weekend.
