Patrice Motsepe, the current president of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), is expected to continue serving as the organization’s head.
In 2021, the CEO of Mamelodi Sundown succeeded Ahmad Ahmad and became the organization’s president.
Every regional body met over the weekend and into Monday in preparation for the March 2025 election, and they unanimously approved Motsepe’s candidature for a second term.
The only North African nations that voted against his return was UNAF.
The South African business magnate was supported by other areas as well, including Cecafa, WAFU A and B, COSAFA, and UNIFFAC.
