Accra to Host Landmark CAF Exec Meeting April 26

Accra to Host Historic Inaugural Meeting of CAF Executive Committee on April 26

Accra, the vibrant capital of Ghana, is poised to host a significant event in African football history as the newly elected Executive Committee of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) convenes for its inaugural meeting on April 26, 2025. The high-stakes gathering is scheduled to take place at the luxurious Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City, starting at 10:00 a.m.

This meeting marks the first official assembly of the new CAF leadership since the recent elections and is set to influence the future trajectory of football governance and development across Africa. With CAF President Dr. Patrice Motsepe presiding over the session, the event carries heightened importance due to its comprehensive agenda and long-term implications for the sport on the continent.

The election of CAF’s vice presidents, a crucial governance mandate outlined in the organization’s constitution, will be a key focus of the gathering. CAF’s operations, strategic direction, and reforms in different areas of African football are greatly aided by these leadership positions. It is anticipated that the results of these elections will establish the standard for increased performance, inclusivity, and transparency inside the company.

The committee will discuss a wide range of topics outside of elections, such as club contests, infrastructure upgrades, youth football development, and financial sustainability. Expectations are high for this first session to produce dramatic results, since all 54 CAF member associations just backed Motsepe’s renewed four-year mandate.

Ghana has reaffirmed that it is fully ready to receive the continental football leadership and has promised a safe, orderly setting for fruitful discussions. Top administrators, technical specialists, and football stakeholders from all across Africa will attend the event, enhancing Ghana’s standing as a dependable venue for important sporting events. This momentous gathering marks a new era in CAF’s leadership and a concerted effort to bring African football to a higher level of international recognition.
