Volke Finke says "Joseph Owona is a loud sounding nothing man"

Volke Finke, the erstwhile coach of the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon, has said ``Joseph Owona former normalization committee chair was probably a great minister who has done great service to Cameroon, but in football in knows completely nothing. The German football technician also observed that Tombi A. Roko, a business man, Jo Kamnga and a certain Ribiero don’t work for Cameroon football but for their pockets`` Volke Finke placed the failures and calamity in the Cameroon Football Federation on the doorsteps of someone he declined to mention his name.

In an exclusive interview with Canal 2 International, Finke said Fecafoot and the Cameroon government owe him 19 months salary of the 24 under contract and a good bonus separation as a friendly way to solve the differences. The close to 700million francs according to Finke is part of his 2 years renewed contract with the Cameroon authorities of which only 5 months pay has already been transferred into his bank account.

On the selection of players into the national team, Finke told Canal 2 International that, `` during the Brazil 2014 World Cup, I selected 12 of the 23 players and the rest by other sponsors as my list to Fecafoot was constantly changed sometimes with a large difference.`` He further explained that after the Brazil fiasco, Fecafoot officials told him to forget about Samuel Eto'o and Alex Song to which he had no option. Also, the former coach observed, `` Its Tombi who negotiated all friendly matches with the help of a certain Jo Kamnga who is not competent hence very often, arrangements were never completed on time and I was simply told to play the games they found for me…``

Finke revealed that the lone friendly match he negotiated against Germany before the world cup was ``fine`` but regretted the one against Nigeria in which the Lions were thrashed saying ``unbelievable things happened………….extra ordinary to change the place and time of the match without informing the coach. In addition, he was aware that Alexandre Belinga will take over from him before the match against Niger and thinks Bonaventure Djonkep is more experienced than Belinga. Logically he could have been the head coach. Nevertheless, the coaches are experienced and I wish them luck in the future. Volke Finke is currently in Cameroon with International lawyers to sue Fecafoot and the Cameroon Government for ``wrongful breach of contract``
