The Egyptian resort city of Sharm El Sheikh is all set for the 12^th CAF Extraordinary General Assembly due for Sunday, 30 September 2018.

Delegates have started flocking the 'City of Peace' for the gathering which will discuss relevant issues related to the development of the game on the continent. The assemblage of the crème de la crème of African football has been the talk of town in the resort city, more than 500 kilometres from the Egyptian capital, Cairo.
