ZURICH — African soccer confederation president Ahmad Ahmad was banned for five years by FIFA on Monday for financial misconduct. The ban was announced during the Madagascan official's campaign to be re-elected for four more years as the head of African soccer. His position also makes him a FIFA vice president.

Say what you want about Sleepy Hayatou but he was never stupid or reckless enough to get banned in his 20 + yrs as CAF Chief.

Let’s see what CAF does about this. Clearly Ahmad should not be president

CAF names Omari as new acting president.

Also noteworthy that in May 2019, Omari may have funded his daughter's wedding with CAF money + fully funded the attendance of 7 CAF ExCo members to the ceremony in DRC.

... and they finally got him. But who is FIFA to talk about corruption when they are equally bad, if not worse? Anyway, because he is caught, he will pay the price, else they are all the same, in my opinion

You’re absolutely correct but using CAF funds to take your boys to Mecca was sure going to arouse suspicion he was an easy scapegoat!

Bar any last minute change, Infantino is backing Patrice Motspepe.. Amaju Pinick could be his vice. But not without a fight from the Morrocan cabal in CAF.
