YAOUNDE: Issa Hayatou, the president of CAF, the African football confederation, urged the three other African members on FIFA’s executive committee for a clean vote when they decide which African country will host the 2010 World Cup next month.
“I’m exhorting all the African FIFA executive committee members to vote cleanly, freely and according to their conscience and assessment of the bids from the five countries,” Hayatou, one of six FIFA vice-presidents, told reporters in Yaounde on Friday.
