Multiple reports are claiming that Cameroon will be stripped off hosting rights for the next African Cup of Nations, AFCON, slated for middle of 2019.


A sports news website based in East Africa, Kawowo Sports, said the decision by the Confederation of African Football, CAF, cited significant delays in the delivery of infrastructure.

It added that interested countries have been asked to submit hosting proposals. CAF is currently holding an emergency meeting in the capital of Ghana, Accra.




A Ghanaian journalist is tweeting about the situation stating that members of the CAF Executive Committee have said there were issues with the bid but that “a decision will be announced today.”
