President Motsepe praised Cameroon government’s commitment in delivering what he believes will be ‘the most successful Africa Cup of Nations in modern memory.’
He said: “We had wonderful discussions with the Prime Minister, the Sports Minister and the leadership of football in Cameroon. We are making good progress because our ambitions and expectations are very high. These on-going discussions to keep track on progress are important. There is a team from CAF ed by the General Secretary Veron (Mosengo-Omba) that is based in Cameroon that is working very close with the Local Organising Committee, the government and FECAFOOT. I’m confident that we are making good progress and I’m impressed with what I have seen. I would like to thank the Prime Minister for his commitment in ensuring that we will meet our objectives.”
