As the fight to lead FIFA into a new era devoid of the corruption of the past continues, more people are throwing their hats in the ring to lead the organisation going forward.

President of the Liberian Football Association Musa Bility is one of these people. The 48 year old has announced plans to stand in the next elections for the FIFA boss, claiming that ‘Africa must take the lead to bring the game back together’.

According to BBC:

“Liberia FA chairman Musa Bility has announced plans to stand for the presidency of Fifa, saying it is Africa’s time to lead world football.

The 48-year-old is the second person to declare his candidacy after former Brazil international Zico.

“Africa is the largest voting bloc in Fifa and we must take the lead to bring football together,” said Bility.

“We all agree that football is facing a difficult moment and it is in difficult moments that great leaders emerge.”

Bility, who has led the Liberian FA since 2010, becomes only the second African to make a bid to become Fifa president.

Current Confederation of African Football (Caf) president Issa Hayatou lost to Sepp Blatter in the 2002 presidential elections.”
