A free fall to the relegation danger zone and changing room discipline getting  out of hand, Hawassa Ketema Head Coach Zeray Mulu’s stay with the club is in question. The giant striker and team skipper Mujib Kasim in bitter contradiction against the team manager, the dressing room  discipline is said to be fractured into pieces.
Five defeats in a row, the premier league former champions are now in dire situation with the nightmare of relegation. Conceding ten goals in the past five outings and scoring only two goals, Hawassa slipped down into 13th on the table collecting only nine points in ten matches.
Though Hawassa actively participated in the winter break players’ transfer market and expected to mount a strong title contention, its current results showed that the team is rather in real danger of relegation. 
The eight million Birr worth attacking midfielder Mujib Kasim is no longer with the team for he is nursing his sick mother, Zeray couldn’t bring a capable  replacement despite having a twenty five member players squad. Add to that the resignation of central defender Million Solomon, Hawassa appears a side cursed for relegation losing five consecutive matches. A shocking three-nil defeat to both Kidus Giorgis and newcomers NegedBank, the team appeared to be in a split up thus life in the club might get shorter for Zeray Mulu who boasted at the start of the season having a strong squad capable of rubbing shoulders with the league heavy weights.
According to team manager Ato Utessa Ugamo, Mujib’s extended leave on behalf of his mother is no longer accepted, thus the club has handed him a suspension letter.“ Being the team skipper as well as the number one highly paid player, he should have led the team by example. But let alone an example, he turned out to be the most difficult player to handle” Club manager Utessa remarked.
According to sources the club management has already started looking for someone capable of guiding the ship out of the turbulence.
