A CAF executive committee member Musa Bility believes under-fire Ghana FA president Kwesi Nyantakyi will be exonerated of the fraudulent charges levelled against him.
The 49-year-old has been charged with "defrauding under false pretences" on orders of Ghana president Nana Akufo-Addo, after a documentary produced by Ghanaian journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas allegedly captured Nyantakyi using names of high-ranking government officials to defraud foreign investors.
Although, the Ghana FA chief is still under investigation, Musa, who doubles as Liberia Football Association president, believes his colleague is a man of integrity and will survive the charges.
"Kwesi Nyantakyi is a good man. His credibility and integrity is undoubted and everyone at Caf is very confident he will come out clean," Bility told Beach FM.
"I'm not surprised with the current situation Kwesi Nyantakyi finds himself in his country. This is because allegations of bribery and corruption against Football Association presidents as well as their involvement in governmental manipulations are gradually becoming normal practices in Africa.
"Many people believe football administrators are corrupt but that's not the case. Nyantakyi shouldn't be defined by this current predicament alone since we believe he will be free soon. He has a lot of goods to still offer African football," he added.
The full video of the investigation will be premiered in Accra on June 6 & 7.

Musa Bility, Musa Bility, where do you live? Of course how can you say otherwise, since you are doing the same at CAF! What is CAF at all. Are they not ashamed of themselves? When Europe if reaping $m through football (UEFA) look at what they are doing in Africa? CORRUPTION! He should come and say this in Ghana and see........
Why to the quick defence of Nyantakyi because all CAF and FIFI executives are corrupt starting from Sepp Plater to the others down the line. Give us a break.
Look how nyantakyi has made his face in the picture, as if the whole world smells bad. very funny Mr nyantakyi you have disgraced your family especially your children . they may not understand the gravity of the problem now but will one day understand.
Mr Musa of CAF should be told that appearances can be a poor judgement of anybodys character ; who told this full that Kwesi Nyatakyi is an honest man and has any intergrity; the man is a thiff and very corrupt .
CAF and FIFA are rotten organisations just like the NDC..........
Clean by whose standard? what percentage did he give you. Lets see the video if only its not edited. We will infact remove him by force if need be. He cant be joking with out football like that.
Of course Kofi is clean by CAF's standards - an organization that has global reputation for fraud and corruption. This is no news, at all for an organization that treats anything ethical with contempt. Shame on CAF executives.
