CAF president Patrice Motsepe has urged for a clean slate for FECAFOOT president Samuel Eto'o following his new found position within African football top decision making body.
Newly re-elected CAF President Patrice Motsepe has urged for a clean slate for Samuel Eto'o, who recently secured a place on the CAF Executive Committee despite his controversial past.
Eto’o, the president of the Cameroonian Football Federation (FECAFOOT) since 2021, has faced disciplinary action in recent years.
His past includes admitting to assaulting a football supporter and serving bans imposed by both FIFA and CAF, following a viral video from the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar that showed Eto'o attacking a fan.

CAF president Patrice Motsepe has set high expectations for his fellow South African Benni McCarthy who was recently appointed Harambee Stars coach.

As a result of the incident, FIFA barred Eto'o from attending any men’s or women’s international matches involving Cameroon for six months.
This ban initially made him ineligible to seek a spot on the CAF Executive Committee. However, Eto'o successfully appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), which lifted the ban late last week—just in time for him to run unopposed and secure his new position by acclamation.

Benni McCarthy hands lifeline to forgotten defender with Harambee Stars recall
Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy has recalled one forgotten deender who has been out of the team since 2021.
Motsepe, who is embarking on his second four-year term as CAF president, noted that Eto'o's past should not cloud hi tenure.
"Everyone at CAF must ensure that incidents involving Eto'o in the past must remain in the past. Nothing that occurred previously should now be held against him. I believe he has an important contribution to make. Cameroon, under the leadership of Samuel, will return to its glory days."
With Eto’o now part of African football’s top decision-making body, attention will turn to his leadership and whether he can restore Cameroon’s footballing prestige while navigating his new role in CAF.
