South African businessman Patrice Motsepe has secured a second term as the president of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) after being re-elected unopposed.
Motsepe, 63, who first assumed office in 2021, had announced his intention to seek re-election in October 2024.
His second four-year term was officially confirmed during CAF’s extraordinary general assembly held in Cairo on Wednesday, with FIFA president Gianni Infantino in attendance.
While his re-election was a mere formality, elections were conducted for CAF’s executive committee, where Cameroonian football icon Samuel Eto’o secured a seat.
The continent’s representatives for the FIFA Council were also elected during the assembly.
