A senior official at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has been fired after accusing President Ahmad Ahmad of corruption and harassment, Reuters reports. General secretary Amr Fahmy was dismissed after submitting a report claiming that Ahmad had taken bribes and misused funds. This is not the first time CAF has found itself mired in controversy. In January 2017, the Egyptian Competition Authority (ECA) fined then-CAF President Issa Hayatou and former Secretary-General Hisham El Amrani a combined EGP 1 bn for violating market competition laws.
