LONDON -- The president of the Liberia Football Association is seeking the FIFA presidency, saying Africa should take the lead rebuilding world football's governing body as it reels from criminal investigations.

Musa Bility is the second candidate to emerge since Sepp Blatter announced on June 2 -- four days after being re-elected to a fifth term -- that he would step down amid the corruption scandal rocking FIFA.

Former Brazil star Zico has already declared his interest in running in the election, which is expected to be held between December and February. Candidates must be nominated by at least five of the 209 FIFA member associations to get on the ballot.
