Fifa hands Caf executive committee member Musa Bility long-term ban

Confederation of African Football (Caf) executive member Musa Bility will serve a 10-year ban for “misappropriation of funds”.

The former Liberia Football Association (LFA) president was found culpable by Fifa for dishonestly using resources and accepting undue benefits.

Bility’s suspension has to do with funds granted under the global body’s “11 against Ebola” campaign, which was launched because of the outbreak of Ebola in Liberia between 2013 and 2016, when more than 10,000 people passed on.
