Hayatou re-elected unopposed as CAF President "again X forever "

Cameroonian Issa Hayatou was on Sunday unanimously re-elected President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for a new term until 2017.

Hayatou, 66,  ran unopposed at the 35th ordinary General Assembly of the continental body held in Marrakesh, Morocco.

Hayatou was elected head of the African Confederation for the first time in 1988 in Morocco, on the sidelines of the African Cup of Nations football competition.

Jacques Anouma of Cote d’Ivoire wanted to oppose Hayatou at this CAF congress, but a change to the election rules disqualified him.

Anouma’s attempt to overturn the decision to disqualify non-executive members from the election was rejected by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

CAS ruled on March 5 that the CAF Executive Committee had jurisdiction to refuse Anouma’s candidature which the CAF Statutes adopted in September 2012.
