Ncobo, who succeeded in forcing the cancellation of Safa’s elective congress, told the SABC that Jordaan must do the honourable thing and resign from his position for the sake of preserving the good image of football in the country.
The former school principal added that he would go all out to garner support from women within football to force Jordaan out.
Ncobo said he will also be approaching Safa sponsors, who will not want to be associated with a leader who is facing serious charges.
Meanwhile, two more women are expected to lay similar rape charges against Jordaan this week.
