Premier League Board Information Officer, Karim Boimanda said at the presentation of the prizes to Simba Sc after winning the Premier League, the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) was represented by Athuman Nyamlani who is the First Vice President of the Federation. / p>
Nyamlani represented President Wallace Karia who had other responsibilities outside office
"There was Nyamlani (Athuman) from TFF, Karia and Wilfred Kidao had other responsibilities that's why they were not there"
"Giving gifts to Try Again and Mo is OK because there were also leaders of the Dar es Salaam Football Association (DRAF), they were supposed to be the leaders of the opposition team Namungo but they left"
"Medal awarding is not done by the Board but is a matter for the team itself or if there are others who have been told to wear the medals due to their preparation," said Boimanda
The explanation came after word of questioning the absence of the senior officials on such a big day
