Fifa lifts ban on Cameroon

Fifa has lifted its ban on Cameroon on Monday after a normalisation committee headed by former Minister of Education, Sports, Joseph Owona, began its work.

Fifa imposed a ban on Cameroon earlier this month the country’s government started interfering in the running of the country’s football.

“As requested by the Fifa Emergency Committee, the normalisation committee that was appointed on 20 July 2013 was able to take up its duties this Monday… at the Cameroon Football Federation (Fecafoot) headquarters, with Fifa and Confederation of African Football (Caf) observers present,” Fifa said in a statement.

The normalisation committee will work under the supervision of Fifa’s Primo Carvano and Caf representative Prosper Abega. Following the lifting of the ban, Cameroon will be allowed to play their 2014 World Cup qualifier against Libya in September.
