Ibrahim Gusau has been replaced as president of the West African Football Union Zone B (WAFU B), days after resigning as president of the Nigeria Football Federation, according to PM News. His replacement means Nigeria will no longer hold the leadership position of the regional football body. The development marks a significant shift in Nigerian football administration, as the country loses its representation at the helm of the West African zonal organisation.

AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors' Forum and Governor of Kwara State, has been elected as the President of the Forum of African Regions (FORAF). He was elected alongside four regional vice-presidents, with a focus on promoting better integration and inclusive growth across Africa.

Football veterans and prominent figures in South African football have endorsed AmaZulu owner Sandile Zungu for the presidency of the South African Football Association (Safa), according to TimesLIVE Sport. The group of masters and legends of the game said Zungu's leadership would strengthen the sport in the country. The backing adds high-profile support to his candidacy ahead of the Safa leadership race.

FIFA and the Confederation of African Football have opened a fresh investigation into the crisis within the Nigeria Football Federation. According to FIFA's Chief Member Associations Officer Elkhan Mammadov, the probe follows various communications received by both bodies concerning developments at the NFF, including notifications about the resignation of the federation's president, members of its Executive Committee and the General Secretary, alongside additional correspondence from other football stakeholders in Nigeria.

A delegation from world football governing body FIFA and the Confederation of African Football (CAF) is expected to arrive in Abuja on Monday, Vanguard Sports reports. The visit comes amid conflicting accounts over proposed football reforms in Nigeria, with reports suggesting FIFA and the National Sports Commission, led by chairman Mallam Shehu Dikko and Director General Bukola Olopade, had reached an agreement, though Vanguard indicates another dimension to the discussions has emerged.

South African Football Association presidential candidate Sandile Zungu says he will push for the implementation of a video assistant referee (VAR) system in local football if he wins the election on Saturday. According to Sowetan, Zungu also apologised to McKenzie while outlining his plans ahead of the Safa presidential vote.
