LFA President Musa Bility has openly endorsed Madagascar FA president Ahmad Ahmad, who is challenging Issa Hayatou for the Caf Presidency. Bility, who has come out to make his stance known, joins Cosafa as Ahmad's supporters ahead of the elections set for 16 March in Ethiopia at the Caf Congress. "I think there could never have been a better time to honour the life of president Hayatou with a befitting event and bring this era to an end. Back in September 2012 at the Caf Congress in Seychelles, a controversial amendment to the statutes excluding non-Executive Committee members from contesting for Caf Presidency was adopted to alienate Ivorian Jacques Anouma, who was challenging Hayatou for the position. Cecafa made their official stance known and are backing the incumbent.
