This Sunday, long-standing Confederation of African Football President Issa Hayatou is set to be re-elected into what he says will be a final term in office.

The Cameroonian who has been in office since 1987 is running unopposed after his only rival - Fifa Executive Committee member Jacques Anouma - was barred from standing for office due to some technicalities.

Despite several allegations of corruption that trails Hayatou, the Cameroonian has recorded some achievement during his long tenure some of which includes increasing Africa’s World Cup entries from 2 to 5 teams, creation of new tournaments, increased finances as well as bringing the World Cup to Africa.
