Unsuitable Nature of FIFA Governance Structure for African Football
The 'specificity of sport' doctrine allows FIFA to self-govern with minimal state interference, ensuring autonomy in managing global football. This doctrine has led to governance challenges and limited accountability of football associations in African countries. FIFA mandates that member associations remain free from government interference, maintaining autonomy in football governance. This doctrine limits the ability of African governments to oversee football associations, leading to issues of mismanagement and lack of accountability.
