South Africa will host the 2013 Africa Cup tournament.
Caf announced today that the decision was reached during Tuesday’s executive committee meeting held in Cairo.
The development will see South Africa swap hosting of the Africa cup with previous bid winner Libya.
“The Executive Committee also decided on the swapping between Libya and South Africa for the 2013 and 2017 respectively, considering the current political situation prevailing in Libya.
This means that South Africa will host 2013 Africa Cup of Nations and Libya, 2017 Africa Cup of Nations,” Caf said in a statement.
South Africa will also host the 2014 CHAN tournament instead of Libya.
Meanwhile, Caf also handed the 2014 Africa Womens Championship to Namibia.
Niger will host the 2015 Under-17 Cup while Madagascar will stage the same tournament two years later.
And Senegal will host the Caf Under-20 Championship in 2015.
