The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has appointed Nigeria’s Amaju Pinnick as its First Vice President amid crisis over his chairmanship at Nigerian Football Federation (NFF).

Few days ago, Amaju was sacked from his post as NFF Chairman after a court order reinstated Giwa to take over.

The new appointment was conveyed in a letter dated July 5, 2018, sent to all CAF affiliated national associations and signed by CAF General Secretary, Amr Fahmy.

According to the scribe, the appointment followed the resignation of the erstwhile General Secretary, Mr. Kwesi Nyantakyi.
