The African Cup of Nations gets underway in Cameroon in less than a week.
The football championship was supposed to be held in 2020 – but was pushed back by the COVID-19 pandemic.
And now, security concerns threaten its staging.

@Brandon Blooming it’s not even our fault if our gov is idiot anglophones and francophones are both suffering in Cameroon
@Nathan Bayiha i didn’t say the francophones dont have their own problems. Dont compare what french cameroon is going through with southern cameroon. I have meet many french cameroonians and they dont care a little and show no remors to what is happening to Southern Cameroonians. Do you know how many people have died in southern cameroon in the hands of the military? Do you know how many children women babies have been killed in the hands of the military. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY VILLAGES HAVE BEEN BURNED AND SCORCHED BY THE MILITAR? DO YOU KNOW THAT SOUTHERN CAMEROON IS A NATION THAT DECIDED TO JOIN FRENCH CAMEROON UNDER A FEDERATION? DO YOU KNOW THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE FLEED SOUTHERN CAMEROON TO NEIGHBORRING NATIONS?
FOR GODS SAKE IT’S FOOTBALL NOT SOCCER. MOST OF THE COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD CALL IT FOOTBALL!!! NOT SOCCER!!! (srry for caps)
Ahahahahaha no one cares. I’ll call it what I like ahahahahahaha
Blame the British the word soccer came from there.

@albert einstien then u r not Albert Einstein GOT’EM
@UrAb0T_ nope the name soccer originally came from university of Oxford. Lol the more you know

@the jaerd I DONT CARE. GOD YAHWEH IS WITH US SOUTHERN CAMEROON. OUR RESOURCES ARE EXTREMELY RICH. AND WE ARE BY THE ATLANTIC OCEAN. WE HAVE OIL AND MANY RESOURCES. ALMOST HALF LA REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN WEALTH COMES FROM US SOUTHERN CAMEROON. WE JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO WHERE WE WERE BEFORE WE JOINED CAMEROUN UNDER A FEDERATION AGREEMENT. WE WANT TO BE A NATION OF OUR OWN. WE MADE A BAD DESCSION TO JOIN LA REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN. WE HAVE FACE GENOCIDE ON OUR PEOPLE, OUR PEOPLE KILLED, WOMEN, BABIES KILLED, OUR TOWNS BURNED TO ASHES, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OUR PEOPLE FLEEING TO NEIGHBOR COUNTRIES, AND WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH. SOUTHERN CAMEROON WILL BE A NATION. I meet alot of French Cameroonians and they show no rumors to what is happening in southern cameroon. They are all in with the genocidal government. Southern Cameroon will be A Nation whether some like it or not. Our Resources are Extremely Rich.
@Brandon Blooming you don’t care about that ? do you want people to be even poorer than before? no longer supporting a country with oil alone look at venezuela, relying on natural resources creates an unstable economy. do you know what genocide means? it is an attempt to eliminate an ethnic, religious or nationality group, which has never happened. Ambazonia terrorist are killing a lot of people , but they can do it for the “freedom of the people” right?
@the jaerd MOM AMI. YOU SOUND LIKE A BRAINWASH INDIVIDUAL(i m not saying you are brainwahed but you sound like you are). PAUL BIYA DECLARED WAR ON US SOUTHERN CAMEROON WHO JUST PROTESTED PEACEFULLY TO GO BACK TO A FEDERATION AGREEMENT WE AGREE TO JOIN CAMEROUN.. THEY THOUGHT WE WERE TWO CUBS OF SUGAR AND WILL MELT.

YOU HAVE BEEN BRAINWASH3D BY THE PAUL BIYA EVIL EMPIRE. WE SOUTHERN CAMEROON WILL BE A GREAT NATION. DONT COMPARE SOUTHERN CAMEROON TO VENEZUELA, OR SOUTH SUDAN. GOD YAHWEH WILL BE WITH US. I DONT CARE BECAUSE WE WANT TO GO BACK TO BEING A NATION. WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE AND SAY SOUTHERN CAMEROON WILL NOT PROSPER AS A NATION. YOU ARE NOT GOD YAHWEH. SOUTHERN CAMEROON WILL BE A GREAT NATION. WE ARE BETTER THAN ANYTHING, THAN BEING WITH LA REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROON WHO HAVE GENOCIDALY KILLED OUR PEOPLE. WOMEN, BABIES, CHILDREN. BURNED DOWN OUR TOWNS. AMBAZONIA FIGHTERS ARE FIGHTING TO FREE SOUTHERN CAMEROON. IF PAUL BIYA WANTS HE CAN CALL AMBAZONIA FIGHTERS AND DISCUSS THE AGREEMENT FEDERATION OR SEPERATION. IF AN INTERNATIONAL COUNTRY WANTS THEY CAN
CALL BOTH SOUTHERN CAMEROON AND CAMEROUN TO STOP THIS WAR. AND GIVE EACH COUNTRY WHAT THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR. BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE. GOD YAHWEH NEVER FORSAKES HIS PEOPLE. YAHSHUA WILL NEVER FORSAKE HIS PEOPLE. SOUTHERN CAMEROON WILL BE A GREAT NATION. CAMEROUN KNOWS THEY WILL STRUGGLE IF SOUTHERN CAMEROON IS PROSPEROUS AND BE A NATION.

4 It was destroyed, the earth fell; got sick, the world fell; the high peoples of the earth have sickened. 5 And the land was polluted under its inhabitants; because they transgressed the laws, they falsified the law, they broke the everlasting covenant. 6 For this reason the curse consumed the land, and its inhabitants were laid waste; for this cause the inhabitants of the earth were consumed, and men were diminished.
7 The wine is lost, the vine is sickened, all who were merry in heart groaned.
8 The rejoicing of the tambourines has ceased, the noise of those rejoicing has ceased, the joy of the harp has ceased.
9 They will not drink wine with singing; cider will be bitter to those who drink it.
10 The city is broken by vanity; Every house has been closed, so that no one can enter.
11 There are cries for lack of wine in the streets; all joy was darkened, joy was banished from the earth.
12 The city was desolate, and the gate was broken down with ruin.
13 For so it shall be in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the peoples, like a shaken olive tree, like gleanings after the harvest.
Isaiah 24: 4-13.

6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; See that you are not disturbed, because it is necessary that all this happens; but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be plagues, and famines, and earthquakes in different places. 8 And all this will be the beginning of pain. Matthew 24: 6-8 JESUS.

I’m not going anywhere that the police have to walk around with automatic rifles
I hope France colapses during my life time and a Muslim government takes over 🥲
@1:15 Claim: Cameroon hosted 2021.
Fact. Cameroon didn’t host African nations championship in January- February 2021. The tournament was moved from 2021 to 2022.
Please try to get you facts before posting online. There is a difference between the African Nations Cup and the African Nations Championship. Cameroon did host the African Nations Championship in 2021 and now she is host the the African Cup of Nations commonly referred to as AFCON
🤣u are living in the medieval times

…
true and competition is a scam , the people are nto allowed to create things and their own world which contradict even the conomical sistem which imprison them through money
we have automated technology and to create things for areselfs only ……not for toehrs , if others want soemthing they have to create that something …..selfsuficiency is more important together with automated technology and creating things and ways to escape economical model
competition must be replaced by creating things , people dont let you tricked by sport , you can create things and escape democracy , republicanism , business capitalism , there is more ways to escape it even through automated technology
It’s not soccer, it’s football.
Africa is the best!
The question here is who’s sponsoring those surrogate forces the answer is the western countries
FREE SOUTHERN CAMEROON(AMBAZONIA)
Nope
@Nathan Bayiha GOD YAHWEH BLESS SOUTHERN CAMEROON(AMBAZONIA) IN YAHSHUA MIGHTY NAME. GOD NEVER FORSAKES HIS PEOPLE.

No
@Emanuele Tataranni YOUR ENTIRE COMMENT IS POINTLESS AND MEANINGLESS. I have meet many french cameroonians and they dont care a little and show no remors to what is happening to Southern Cameroonians. Do you know how many people have died in southern cameroon in the hands of the military? Do you know how many children women babies have been killed in the hands of the military. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY VILLAGES HAVE BEEN BURNED AND SCORCHED BY THE MILITAR? DO YOU KNOW THAT SOUTHERN CAMEROON IS A NATION THAT DECIDED TO JOIN FRENCH CAMEROON UNDER A FEDERATION? DO YOU KNOW THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE FLEED SOUTHERN CAMEROON TO NEIGHBORRING NATIONS?
Two countries with two anthems that agreed to federate but one treid to assimilated the other but it has failed.
Honestly I just want to watch the games. People have started making their predictions. This will be a nice break from all that’s happening right now worldwide. So long as precautions are taken and people enjoy themselves I’m all for it
Are you really human enough to say you just want to watch the games in the midst of a genocide carried out by the satanic regime of the failed republic of French Cameroun against Ambazonian civilians? So you want to enjoy football games over the blood of the more than 30000 (thirty thousands – a very conservative figure because the actual death could even be more than 100000) innocent Ambazonians? You want to enjoy over the blood of the innocent children like baby Martha, baby Caroline etc. killed by the demonic French Cameroun soldiers when the babies were on their ways to school and from school. Perhaps you have children or you would some day have children. Shame on you.
How did they even get awarded the right to host such an event. Might as well host the Olympics in Syria and the World Cup to Myanmar and while we at it host the Six Nations to Colombia.
1:40 that man on the back 🤣
Bet Nigeria or Cameroon
Where are the Cove-heed masks and regulations 🤔 yet Africa has the lowest infection rates and cove-heed death rates. I’m not saying it’s not real but the media is blowing it out of proportion.
they always have to show you the bad side of africa
Let the games begins
So sad that the same people are divided by colonial languages
