The prayers
and fasting to reverse by Cameroonians or to avert the prophecy of the Nigerian
Prophet which went viral on social media platforms and handles finally went in vein
and Cameroon was eliminated. True to his words “Cameroon will play the finals before
the finals and he sees a Muslim country holding the trophy. Sadio Mane team captain
of Senegal also prophesied from the very beginning of the 2021 AFCON that he will
play the finals with Mohamed Salah and it has come to pass.
What
happened to Cameroon as the host country of the African Nations cup in 1972 at infancy,
has come to pass in the year 2022, 50 years after in ripe adulthood. Bad signs!
All attempt
to avert what happened in 72 failed in 2022 under a new leadership with all the
money, all the encouragement, all the mobilization, all the prayers and above all
the individual sacrifices and collective commitments.
One thing,
everybody has come to conclude is that under football natural circumstances Cameroon
was defeated on the pitch by the Egyptians but beyond the physical, the defeat speak
volumes.
Volume
in the strict sense of it that all the living forces in Cameroon were all at sleep.
Who vexed the gods? What was not done or should have been done? Is the question.
Coming
back to the nation, remember the prophet in his words about Nigeria said, “they will play well in the first round but will
come back empty because the house is divided”. Cameroon entangled in all the socio
economic and political crisis plus all the security challenges on earth you can
imagine, what do we expect? Doom of course. The flesh is willing but the soul of
the system is depleted.
Now looking
back at 1972 and onto 2022 what are the lessons Cameroon learned under Ahidjo and
did not correct under Biya because what happened on the 3rd of February
2022 was beyond human apprehension to host twice and unable to pick the crown once.
Shall
we now say Cameroon is cursed or doomed never to host and win the trophy? There
is still much yet undisclosed or uncovered about the last defeat of the Cameroon
national team.
The night
of the defeat of the Lions, right up to where we report appears to be too long as most
sport lovers, fans and sympathizer are yet to believe what happened or still day
dreaming.
One thing
is clear and certain, on the 3rd of February 2022 Cameroon was eliminated
at the Semi finals through penalty shoot out and the sad memories enters football
achieves and Cameroonians will live to regret it.
The third
position in the games remains the last hope and option for the Cameroonians national
team in order not to host and leave empty handed.
To rest
my analysis or case, in 1972 the reunification question was up when we lost the
African Nations cup we hosted, fifty (50) years after in 2022 hosting for the second
time, the question of independence and sovereign right is up by Anglophones wanting
separation through war. In your or our humble opinions what should we have expected
other than defeat? With all the serial killings, blood flow and Mafia. God have
Mercy.
“To not
have succeeded in the midst of all the confusion with Eto’o Fils the goal maker
at the head of FECAFOOT plus all the money he pumped in, means, God is still to
say something about Cameroon Football” The future is pregnant.
