Understanding sports dynamics and legality in Cameroon: Sports Ministry sponsors two-day programme
The 2024 “dynamics of Cameroon’s sports’ federations conference” comes on the backside of the recent cacophony by some federations. This annual conference is aimed at shaping the legal, political and economic aspects of different disciplines. The event is billed for May 9-10, 2024.
After a complete success last year, the 2024 conference on the dynamics of sports federations in Cameroon will be done via institutional sponsorship of the ministry of sports and physical education.
The two-day programme is scheduled for the nation’s political capital of Yaounde, precisely, Djeuga Palace.
This conference couldn’t come at a better time. Different sporting disciplines including: Football, Volleyball and Cycling have witnessed tornado-esque changes, for simple reasons.
All queries will be handled at the conference with tact and style from top-notch professors across the national triangle, and even others from abroad.
The minister of sports and physical education, professor Narcisse Mouelle Kombi will be present for this well sculpted idea, birthed by Maître Nouyadam Jean Jacques, founder and manager of the Noyadam and Associates law firm. This initiative is expected to solve puzzles of thousands of Cameroonians.
