Iya Mohammed, outgoing President of FECAFOOT,
has been reelected as President of the national football federation even as he
was not physically present at the polls, which took place last night (June 19)
in Yaoundé amid controversies.
The election followed a crisis meeting
between Cameroon football officials and Prime Minister Philemon Yang.
Iya who is still in detention in
Yaounde, accused of having caused SODECOTON to lose over FCFA Nine billion
while he served as general manager for over two decades, succeeded to send a proxy for the election.
He was nominated in absentia, and after voting
Mr.Iya secured 97 of the 98 who actually cast their votes, according to
fecafooonline, the official website.
But the Electoral College was made up
of 102 delegates or representatives, meaning 1O4 did not vote.
A member of the newly elected
Fecafoot Buruea told The Recorder that, a Fifa representative witnessed the election.
He said they had to go ahead with the election despite controversies here and
there so as to prevent Cameroon from being sanctioned by FIFA.

bureau of Fecafoot are
