Safa saved by POPI Act from parliament
The Star
|November 21, 2025
DURING a heated virtual parliamentary hearing on Tuesday, the South African Football Association (Safa) came under fire, as it always does.
Among the flashpoints were concerns over financial disparities within the national football coaching staff and the association's overall governance.
The stark salary contrast between Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos and his counterpart, Banyana Banyana coach Desiree Ellis, was a central point of contention that drew passionate, sharp reactions from members of Parliament.
During the session, which saw Safa's CEO, Lydia Monyepao, at the forefront, tensions escalated when MPs confronted her about the financial inequities between the two coaches.
Monyepao's insistence on citing the Protection of Personal Information Act as a defence for withholding Broos's salary drew the panel's discontent, which sought clarity on the issue.
