On 10 January 2012, CAS released a statement that said Namibia’s appeal had been rejected. A press released by CAS stated that Zengue had taken residency in Burkina Faso in 1994, before receiving a Burkinabe nationality certificate in 2006 (whilst a player at Ankaragücü in Turkey) and a Burkinabe passport in March 2011 (the day before his début against Namibia). At no point did CAS decide whether or not Zengue was to be considered eligible for international football with Burkina Faso.

On 28 October, the day before the group stage draw for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, BBC reported that the player was ineligible and the player had not been granted clearance by FIFA. However, CAF chose to dismiss Namibia’s complaint as it was not counter-signed by Burkina Faso’s captain as per article 37.1 of CAF’s statutes. The Namibian FA appealed against CAF’s decision but lost. The NFA lodged a complaint with the Court of Arbitration for Sport to have CAF’s decision to reject Zengue overturned.

In 2011, controversy erupted over his participation in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match. In December 2011, the Confederation of African Football rejected an appeal by the Namibian Football Association. This was the subject of an appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The Confederation of African Football had rejected Namibia’s appeal. However, the appeal was denied on technical grounds. Namibia appealed to Court of Arbitration for Sport in order to have CAF’s rejection reversed. The Court ruled in favor of the African Football Governing Body.
