Samuel Eto'o and Rigobert Song summoned to the Prime Minister's office to diagnose the Cameroonian CAN. President Paul Biya indicated on February 10 that he had given instructions to the government for a better organization of Cameroonian football for better results.

The results are undoubtedly not positive for a team from Cameroon, five times African champions, and which only won one meeting in Ivory Coast, against Gambia (3-2). Samuel E to'o had also submitted his resignation the day after the poor performance of the Indomitable Lions, ingloriously eliminated by Nigeria.
