Issa Hayatou named FIFA Acting President

African football leader, Issa Hayatou
has been named to take charge of FIFA after former
president, Blatter was suspended and “stripped of all
duties.”
African football leader Issa Hayatou on Thursday took
temporary charge of FIFA after Sepp Blatter was “relieved
of his duties” because of his 90-day suspension, the world
body said.
Hayatou, 69, is president of the Confederation of African
Football, and takes over as senior vice president of FIFA. He
has in the past been reprimanded for misconduct by the
International Olympic Committee.
“Joseph S. Blatter was relieved of all his duties as FIFA
president” after the move by the FIFA ethics committee to
suspend him for 90 days because he is under criminal
investigation by Swiss prosecutors, FIFA said.
