The Indomitable Lions justified their standoff in an open letter to the public on Friday
According to Caf rules, Cameroon players ought to have arrived in Egypt early Friday, which is five days before their first match at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations which kicks off later today. However, the cup holders are still at a hotel in their country’s capital Yaounde waiting for more money.
They are protesting the bonuses offered to them by the government. They are demanding 40 million francs (€61,000) each, whereas the authorities say they can’t pay more 20 million francs (€30,500), which has been wired to their respective bank accounts.
