CAF’s General Secretary Tenders Resignation Letter

CAF General Secretary Mouad Hajji has tendered his resignation letter to CAF President Ahmad Ahmad, who accepted his resignation on Monday.

Hajji was appointed CAF General Secretary on 11 April 2019. He pleaded for notice of his departure to be shortened, a request which the President has acceded to. He said his resignation was personal reasons indicating the need to return to Morocco as soon as possible.

The Emergency Committee will meet to appoint an Acting General Secretary, at the request of the CAF President.

According to the statutes of the organisation, resignations and appointments must be submitted to the Executive Committee. Thus, the CAF President has announced that a meeting of the Emergency Committee will be convened as soon as possible to appoint an interim General Secretary.

President Ahmad expressed his gratitude to Hajji, for his invaluable work in driving the reforms of the organisation and African football since his appointment. He also commended his commitment, loyalty and above all passion for African football, and wishes him the best in his future endeavours.

Hajji appreciated the president saying, “I would like to warmly thank President Ahmad Ahmad for giving me the opportunity to serve the football on the continent at such a level of responsibility. The numerous reforms initiated in the areas of sporting and administrative since 2017 continues to remain a project which I believe in, and which I still support. I have no doubt that the President will continue to work for the good and development of our most beautiful sport.”
