African football legends are gradually taking charge of the game in the continent with the latest being the Jonathan Pitroipa of Burkina Faso.
Former Indomitable Lions forward Samuel Eto’o is the current president of FECAFOOT and Didier Drogba also bid to become the president of the Federation of Ivorian Football before losing out.
