Tensions Mount Between Minsep and Fecafoot Over Indomitable Lions' Technical Staff, Prime Minister to Mediate

In this leadership battle, the Prime Minister positions himself as a mediator to restore order.

According to sources close to the matter, a reconciliation meeting is scheduled for Thursday at the Prime Minister's office, bringing together representatives from Minsep and Fecafoot. The primary objective of this meeting is to reach a consensus on the appointment of the new technical staff for the Cameroonian national team.

While Minsep recently signed a contract with Marc Brys and part of his staff, tensions arise with Samuel Eto'o, tasked by the Emergency Committee to make proposals for the technical staff, despite the already made appointment by the Ministry. Despite a 72-hour deadline, Eto'o's proposals remain unknown.

The discord seems to originate from the Prime Minister's intervention, who reportedly discouraged Samuel Eto'o from proceeding with his nominations. Joseph Dion Ngute will personally preside over the meeting between the two parties, aiming to prevent an escalation of the conflict that could have detrimental consequences for Cameroonian football.

Furthermore, Thursday also marks the funeral of David Eto'o, the father of Samuel Eto'o, in Douala. In this difficult context, Samuel Eto'o's attitude remains uncertain. However, this day should bring clarity on how he handles this dual pressure.

In summary, the reconciliation meeting orchestrated by Prime Minister Joseph Dion Ngute represents hope for easing tensions and finding common ground among stakeholders in Cameroonian football.
