"Several former and current members of staff have told the Guardian there is an atmosphere of intimidation and paranoia at the Caf headquarters in Cairo, where Mosengo-Omba is accused of sidelining colleagues and silencing whistleblowers. Those sacked include Hannan Nur the former head of governance, risk and compliance (GRC) who accused Mosengo-Omba in a damning report last year of impeding members of her department from performing their duties and, among other claims, of breaching internal governance and auditing regulations."
"Anyone who dares to speak up anyone who is part of the report is terminated, without cause, without any due process, said one senior employee who asked not to be named for fear of retaliation. We live in an organisation that deliberately hides the truth so as not to embarrass the secretary general and his entourage. Everything is political now."
Caf general secretary Veron Mosengo-Omba is accused of treating the Confederation of African Football as his proprietorship and fostering a toxic culture of fear. Several former and current staff report an atmosphere of intimidation and paranoia at the Cairo headquarters, with employees allegedly fired for speaking out or participating in reports. Hannan Nur, former head of governance, risk and compliance, accused Mosengo-Omba of impeding her department and breaching governance and auditing rules. Caf's audit and compliance committee later alleged unauthorised interference and attempted whitewashing. Other senior figures, including Abiola Ijasanmi, Noumandiez Doue and Raul Chipenda, were dismissed after raising concerns.
