Cameroon government has compelled council workers in Buea in south-west Cameroon to attend the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations football games.
According to the town’s mayor, this is in line with instructions by the regional governor with attendance being mandatory for all.
The decision came after many games being played in the town of Limbe had few fans in attendance.
The Cameroonian government has reduced the daily hours of work for public workers to enable their attendance at the Africa Cup of Nations.
