yum remove httpd* alone cant remove httpd completely. Follow the steps as shown below.

Use yum list installed "httpd*" to list all the httpd packages
Now use yum list installed "mod_" to list all modules that helps httpd.
Remove all the listed packages with yum remove command.
Once its removed, delete the user and group called "apache" .
Followed by apache path rm -rf /var/www /etc/httpd /usr/lib/httpd

Thus we have completely removed httpd.
