Ghanaian Supreme Court judge, Anin Yeboah, has been elected as chairman of Fifa's Disciplinary Committee.
He was voted for a four year term at a congress of the football’s governing body on Thursday in Bahrain.
In 2016 Yeboah served as a member of Fifa's Ethics Committee.
He was one of several Africans voted onto committees at the congress, including Rwanda's Martin Ngoga who was selected to be deputy chairman of the investigatory chamber of the Ethics Committee.
