Addressing the 54-member Caf General Assembly on Friday morning in Cairo, Egypt, Infantino says all they need is to given time to allow CAF to turn around the status quo.

Infantino has also rejected reports that this move has got a colonialist approach towards African football as it has been alleged that Fifa wants to run it remotely.Former Fifa President Sepp Blatter and other leading football officials on the continent, have made similar claims on this move.

Infantino says they are going to target three big areas in Caf governance and this would be done by going through a general, forensic audit and financial audits.Ahmad has also been complaining that he’s been a victim of leaks coming from within his organisation and he’s blamed this on those he claims are working against him.of Morocco walked off the pitch against Esperance of Tunisia and that matter is before the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland.

Further allegations of fraud have recently been made against Ahmad, who was detained and questioned by French authorities in June as part of a corruption investigation.
