Saula Waqa
Ba football captain Saula Waqa has been suspended for three years after testing positive for marijuana during the Punjas Battle of the Giants tournament.
This has been confirmed by Fiji Football Association chief executive Mohammed Yusuf who says the Ba striker is a repeat offender.
The national striker has also been slapped with a $500 fine.
“He’s a second offender, a repeat offender so three years and a $500 fine.”
This means Waqa will not be allowed to participate at any level of football.
Waqa was the only one tested positive out of the total 72 players that were tested during the Punjas Battle of the Giants tournament.
