Gabon FA chief still in post despite suspension recommendation, FIFA says case is ongoing
January 22 – FIFA has yet to act on an independent investigator’s recommendation in November that the president of the Gabonese football association (Fegafoot) should be immediately suspended.
The report in The Guardian newspaper says Pierre-Alain Mounguengui, who has been accused of covering up widespread sexual abuse, is still awaiting trial and could face up to three years in prison if found guilty
There is no suggestion Mounguengui – who was re-elected as Fegafoot’s president for a third term in 2022 – has been accused of sexual abuse himself.
