Kurt Okraku endorses Patrice Motsepe’s second term bid for CAF Presidency

Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kurt Okraku has voiced his support for Dr Patrice Motsepe’s bid for a second term as President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

This endorsement was made during a WAFU B Zonal Union meeting, which Okraku leads, in Addis Ababa on October 18, 2024.

WAFU B, which comprises football federations from West Africa, collectively urged Dr Motsepe to stand again in the upcoming CAF elections reportedly scheduled for March 12, 2025.

Okraku commended the South African businessman for delivering on his promises, particularly by increasing financial investments in Zonal Unions and Member Associations across Africa.

Dr Motsepe, who has served as CAF President since 2021, has driven reforms aimed at developing African football and improving the organization’s financial health.

As his first term nears its conclusion, speculation around the 2025 CAF elections has intensified, with candidates required to submit their nominations by November 12, 2024.

The election will be held in Cairo, Egypt, and will see football executives from across Africa decide who will lead CAF for the next term. In addition to the presidency, several other executive committee positions will be contested, as well as the selection of CAF’s representatives within FIFA.
