“I have a duty to develop football all over Africa. “We cant host the AFCON in only four countries that we believe have got all the infrastructure but you have to create opportunities for other countries to build infrastructure at the level of the world cup that we want them and develop football in those countries.
“I am confident that the AFCON in Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda will be successful. There will be challenges like the world cup in Qatar. And like we are going to the world cup now in United States, Canada and Mexico, there will be challenges.
“That is why I was insisting that the CHAN takes place in those countries even though they were not ready in February and I was convinced that helps in organising the AFCON in Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda.”
