"After over 30 years of an international professional career dedicated to promoting an ideal form of football that brings people together, educates, and creates opportunities for hope, I have decided to step down from my position as Secretary General of Caf to devote myself to more personal projects."
"Now that I have been able to dispel the suspicions that some people have gone to great lengths to cast on me, I can retire with peace of mind and without constraint, leaving the Caf more prosperous than ever."
"Mosengo-Omba has been a divisive figure at Caf, accused by some employees of creating a toxic atmosphere in the workplace, although an investigation after staff complaints cleared him of any wrongdoing."
Veron Mosengo-Omba has resigned from his position as general secretary of the Confederation of African Football (Caf) following significant pressure for his removal. His resignation comes during a turbulent period for African football, particularly after Senegal was stripped of the Africa Cup of Nations title. Mosengo-Omba, who has faced criticism for exceeding the mandatory retirement age, stated he is retiring to focus on personal projects. Despite being a controversial figure, he expressed gratitude for the progress made under his leadership.
