South Africa will replace Libya as hosts of the 2013 CAF Africa Cup of Nations.
The CAF Executive Committee under the leadership of CAF President Issa Hayatou met on Tuesday, September 27, 2011 in Cairo, Egypt.
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.
