President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Dr. Patrice Motsepe is scheduled to arrive in Accra on Wednesday, for a two-day visit. The South African businessman who took over the reins of CAF from Amad Amad in March this year will attend a number of programmes during his visit.

Dr. Motsepe will be the Special Guest at the Youth connects Programme – an initiative of H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo, President of the Republic of Ghana.

He will meet President Nana Akufo Addo at a Dinner event in Accra Wednesday evening to brainstorm on how to transform the African Youth and policies and programmes for the development of African Football.

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) will later organize a breakfast Meeting for him at the Kempinski Hotel where he will meet Youth and Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif (Hon.), Football stakeholders, GFA Executive Council Members, Corporate Ghana, past and present football administrators and the Media.

Dr. Patrice Motsepe will round up his visit with a donation at the Dworwulu Special School before a brief session with Ghana’s Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif (Hon.) on Thursday evening.

The Sports Media is to take note that there shall be an opportunity for a media interaction (Questions and Answers) at the Conference Room of the Ghana Football Association at midday on Thursday, October 21, 2021.

This is Dr. Patrice Motsepe’s first visit to Ghana since he was elected into office as President of CAF in March 2021.

The Mamelodi Sundowns owner became new Confederation of African Football president during the organisation’s 43rd Ordinary General Assembly in March, 2021.

The 59 years old was elected unopposed to replace outgoing Ahmad Ahmad, whose three-year reign promised much but was ultimately mottled by accusations of nepotism, corruption and embezzlement.

Ahmad Ahmad was suspended in November after being found guilty of breaching four separate articles of Fifa’s ethics code and banned from all football-related activity for five years.
