The Court of Arbitration for Sport (TAS) has declared itself incompetent to judge on the appeal made on March 15, 2024, by some actors of Cameroon football. The appellants have been ordered to pay 7,000 Swiss francs to FECAFOOT as a contribution to the arbitration costs.
The Court of Arbitration stated:
1. The Court of Arbitration for Sport declares itself incompetent to rule on the appeal filed on March 15, 2024, following the alleged inaction of the Cameroon Football Federation in handling the complaint lodged on November 16, 2023, with its Ethics Commission.
2. The arbitration costs, which will be communicated to the parties by the Registry of the Court of Arbitration for Sport by separate letter, shall be borne by the Appellants, jointly and severally.
3. Djiko FC of Bandjoun, Dragon Club of Yaoundé, Espoir de Mfou, AS Stade de Bandjoun, Kohi Club of Maroua, Guébaké FC of Pitoa, and Tourbillon FC Guidiguis, as well as Mr. Guibaï Gatama, Mr. Aboubakar Alim Konate, Mr. Mohamadou, and Mr. François Kouedem, must jointly and severally pay the sum of CHF 7,000 (seven thousand Swiss francs) to the Cameroon Football Federation as a contribution to its costs related to this arbitration procedure.
4. All other or further conclusions of the Parties are rejected.
Despite this ruling, Eto’o Fils Samuel is not cleared to run for the CAF Exco position though it is a step towards another success in his long line of legal battles in his three years in office.
