The Court of Arbitration for Sport rejected Jacques Anouma’s second appeal regarding the invalidation of his candidacy for the CAF presidency. Anouma’s appeal to run against Issa Hayatou has been rejected, making Hayatou the only candidate for his seventh term. Anouma had challenged the candidacy rules, and with this decision, Hayatou is poised to continue his long tenure at the helm of CAF. The rejection of Anouma’s appeal raises concerns about the lack of opposition in the leadership of African football.
