Samuel Eto’o tendered his resignation as president of the Cameroon Football Federation on Monday only to have it denied by its executive committee.
Eto’o, who won the African player of the year a record four times, has been dogged by allegations of improper conduct, match-fixing and corruption.
The federation said its executive committee met in Cameroon’s capital, Yaoundé, on Monday to assess the national team’s performance at the Africa Cup of Nations, and that the meeting began with Eto’o offering to step down while inviting the other members “to do likewise in good faith.”
“At the end of discussions and subsequent deliberations, the members of the executive committee decided to keep their current mandates and thus unanimously rejected the president’s resignation thereby renewing their confidence in him to continue with the same spirit of reconstruction and development of Cameroon football at all levels as envisaged in his plan adopted by the elective general assembly of Dec. 11, 2021,” the federation said in a statement, referring to the date Eto’o took over as president.
