Fecafoot Elections: Why the ‘candidature’ of Tombi in Roko creates fear

Presented as a candidate in the race to the estate of Iya Mohammed at the central prison of Kodengui since June 20, 2013, the Secretary general of the Cameroon football Federation, pretentiously posed by some as the "candidate of Fifa, is one of the most feared candidates of these electoral jousting.

Candidate or not, by the admission of the person concerned, is not at the centre of its concerns for the moment. Or perhaps, it will never be. For Tombi in Roko Sidiki, the most important thing in the end of the transitional period of Fecafoot, is to ensure that the electoral process is the canvas as enacted by the Committee for Standardization, with the anointing of the association of international football federation (Fifa), the rest is that distractions.

Perhaps this is why despite the hollering, insults and slanderous expressions balanced in its place by a mob of malcontents, recruited from among the actors of the Cameroonian football, he remains of stable. One would think that the lifting of shields occurred in the aftermath of the announcement of its (supposed) informally candidacy at the head of the Cameroonian football umbrella body.

Presented by a certain press as the engine of several business diversions and sugarcoat lists, the SG seems to reduce all these flocks of green lumber it receives for more than a year already. Not a day goes by without him receiving a flurry of share of detractors who wield, to be justified, his complicity with Joseph Owona.

In addition to the national Union of the footballers of Cameroon (Synafoc) who is not ready to validate projects status and electoral Code of the Fecafoot, Prosper Nkou Mvondo, Roger Milla and Abdouraman Hamadou (to name only a few), do not appreciate Tombi piloting the ship of Cameroonian football.

For them, former first vice-president in charge of administration and Finances of the football League of the Littoral cited wrongly or rightly in some cases suspicious at the time of Iya Mohammed, is immediately out of the race to the prestigious throne.
