Nigeria’s Samson Adamu is set to take on a major role in African football as he is expected to become the new General Secretary of the Confederation of African Football.
Reports indicate that CAF President Patrice Motsepe will confirm the appointment at a press conference in Cairo.
Adamu, who currently serves as CAF’s Director of Competitions, is well respected for his work in organising major tournaments such as the Africa Cup of Nations, the CAF Champions League and the Confederation Cup.
If confirmed, he will replace Véron Mosengo-Omba in one of the most important administrative positions in African football.
Samson Adamu is also the son of Amos Adamu, a former FIFA Executive Committee member.
