Outspoken president of the Nigeria Football Association Amaju Pinnick says CAF presidential candidate Ahmad Ahmad already has 35 votes as he confidently pronounced the possible exit of Issa Hayatou as CAF president.

Pinnick made the remarks at a ceremony to celebrate Philip Chiyangwa’s 58th birthday and ascension to power as COSAFA president.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino who was the guest of honour was the centre of attraction at the event graced by several top dignitaries on the football scene.
