%=macroPartfont/arial3=%Issa Hayatou was born to lead and to serve: to lead with his ideas, to organise anything from children's games to the big events, to serve others with a sense of dutiful generosity and magnanimity and with an honesty motivated by a sense of justice and passion.
The Hayatous stem from the northern part of Cameroon known for its nobility and its wisdom, and this widespread family has long enjoyed special status among the local population; traditionally, nothing was ever done without the Hayatous' approval.
IssaHayatou has won his first battle in these first eight years as CAF President, showing the confederation to be really in control of the game throughout the continent.
