By -

CAF has announced Morocco as the host of the 2024 Women African Cup of Nations for the second time in a row.

Morocco which is a North African country hosted the last edition of WAFCON in July, which saw South Africa emerging as champions after beating Morocco 2-1 in the final.



CAF announced Morocco as the host of the  tournament on Tuesday

The decision comes as a surprise, though, as Morocco just finished hosting the 2022 edition.

According to reports Morocco were granted the hosting rights after other African countries failed to submit a bid.

Morroco is the only country to submit a bid, and as a result they were named automatic hosts.

In the often predictable world of Cameroonian politics, this week delivered a bombshell that no one saw coming. Issa Tchiroma Bakary, a man who has been one of President Paul Biya's most trusted allies for years, just walked away from everything—his ministerial position, his comfortable spot in the inner circle, and decades of political loyalty. Issa Tchiroma Bakary The Moment Everything Changed Picture this: It's Wednesday evening, and Cameroonians are scrolling through social media when suddenly, there's Issa Tchiroma posting an open letter that would change everything. The Minister of Employment and Vocational Training wasn't just resigning—he was declaring war on the very system he had helped build and defend.

As Cameroon gears up for its October 2025 presidential election, a troubling pattern has emerged among opposition candidates that exposes the shallow nature of their campaigns and their disconnect from the country's most pressing humanitarian crisis.

Every aspiring leader is making bold proclamations about resolving this complex conflict that has claimed thousands of lives and displaced over a million people.

The humanitarian crisis in Anglophone Cameroon is spiraling, yet for many, it remains a silent tragedy. Despite the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) consistently categorizing it as one of the world's most neglected displacement crises, the international response, particularly from bodies like the United Nations, appears to be downplaying its severity. This underreporting and muted condemnation are not merely oversights; they are contributing directly to a rising death toll and an escalating human catastrophe. For nine years, the Anglophone regions of Cameroon have been gripped by a brutal conflict between state forces and armed separatists. What began as protests against perceived marginalization has escalated into widespread violence, marked by unlawful killings, torture, abductions, and the destruction of homes and infrastructure. Hundreds of thousands have been displaced, their lives shattered, and access to basic necessities like food, water, and healthcare severely limited. The...
