In a remarkable show of leadership and generosity, Confederation of African Football (CAF) President Patrice Motsepe has donated both his salaries as FIFA Deputy President and CAF President to the staff of the continental body, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The South African billionaire made the gesture to motivate and boost the morale of CAF employees, who have reportedly been underpaid compared to their counterparts in other football organizations.

Motsepe, who has consistently emphasized transparency and welfare since assuming office in 2021, stated that the decision was aimed at recognizing the hard work and dedication of CAF staff members who continue to serve the organization under challenging conditions.

The donation has been widely praised across African football circles as a rare act of humility and compassion from a top football administrator, reinforcing Motsepe’s reputation as a reform-driven leader committed to uplifting African football both on and off the pitch.
