“The selection of the Garoua stadium is a manipulative technique to rally the inhabitants to FECAFOOT”
Abdouraman Hamidou Baba expresses his doubts concerning the selection of the Roundé-Adjia stadium in Garoua for the match between Cameroon and Namibia scheduled for September 7, 2024. Though he’s initially from Garoua, he sees this resolution as a politically manipulative transfer aimed toward rallying the native inhabitants in FECAFOOT.
“In regular instances, as a son of Garoua, it could have been an excellent satisfaction for me to welcome the data that THE INDOPTABLE LIONS would play their match in opposition to Namibia on the Roundé-Adjia stadium on September 7, 2024.
However within the present context, marked by an unprecedented mistrust of FECAFOOT in direction of the republic, the selection of Garoua to host this sport appears very clear as a manipulative transfer to make the populations of this metropolis goal allies on this revolt initiative.
You will need to do not forget that the preliminary selection of FECAFOOT was the town of Douala and actually, Garoua was chosen solely to keep away from selecting Yaoundé which was the desire of Coach Marc Brys.
The position of soccer federation leaders is to place your complete nationwide crew in essentially the most favorable working atmosphere potential to allow them to provide the very best performances. Aside from goal causes, federation leaders have an obligation to observe the opinion of the technical employees on questions instantly associated to sports activities efficiency.
It appears more and more clear that the present development, identical to the earlier one, associated to the appointment of the teaching employees of the AMAZING LION, has little or no to do with soccer. My conviction is that it is a battle from a political viewpoint whose penalties could be devastating for our nation.
If the match in opposition to Namibia was performed in Garoua, it could be essentially the most irrefutable proof of the chapter of the official state. This may imply very clearly that those that are presupposed to run our nation aren’t those who really run it. So we’d be led by an unknown group, which might imply that Cameroon is not on the brink however already on the brink.
Far be it from me, the thought of denying FECAFOOT its autonomy vis-à-vis different organizations, together with CAF and FIFA, and its full independence in inside decision-making processes. However this autonomy and independence can solely be legitimate in compliance with legal guidelines, guidelines and rules of fine governance.
In the end, as a Cameroonian, I’d not be in any respect shocked if the UNKNOWN LIONS weren’t concerned within the sport in opposition to Namibia, whatever the outcomes.
Energy should stay within the republic that may stay, unbiased of the personalities known as upon to animate its establishments over time!”
