Cameroon’s football governing body, FECAFOOT, has suspended Éclair FC de Sa’a, a decision that has sparked outrage and allegations of internal witch-hunting within the women’s football scene.

The suspension, which reportedly stems from disputes over administrative irregularities and the authenticity of a general assembly document, has left the club’s management fuming. The club’s vice president reacted strongly, describing the decision as “an injustice built on falsehoods.”

According to him, the so-called minutes of the meeting used to justify the sanction were fabricated. “The guy attached a supposed fake PV deposited by the alleged complainants. On July 15, Christo wasn’t even in Cameroon — we never held any General Assembly,” he protested, insisting that the club would organize an official assembly soon to set the record straight.

The situation has reignited tensions between certain club executives and FECAFOOT’s hierarchy, particularly given the strained relationship between the federation and members of the Onana family — who have been outspoken about governance and transparency issues within Cameroonian football.

Some observers believe the move against Éclair FC may be part of a broader campaign targeting individuals close to the Onanas, both at club and national team levels. This perception has deepened the divide in the women’s football community, with several voices calling for mediation and transparency in FECAFOOT’s decision-making.

For now, Éclair FC de Sa’a remains barred from participating in all official competitions, pending further review. The club has vowed to appeal the decision and defend its integrity before the competent authorities.
