The 46-year-old Executive will serve a four-year term on the committee after winning the vote at the FIFA congress in Mauritius. This is indeed a proud moment for women everywhere as HER election is coming after nearly 109 years of the governing body history, Nsekera became the first woman in history in the Executive committee today.
So proud of this lady, congratulations sista
