Geremi, the President of the National Union of Cameroonian Footballers (Synafoc) is set to challenge Fecafoot's decision to exclude Synafoc from the federation's general assembly, Camfoot reported.
In a statement, Synafoc revealed it would appeal the decision saying it was excluded without valid reasons.
"To achieve this, Fecafoot has created from scratch a procedure that does not exist in any of its texts, namely the withdrawal of approval," the organisation's Daniel Blaise said.
Blaise referred to a ruling issued on 16 November 2024 to exclude Syanfoc from the Assembly, and on 18 November 2024, Synafoc referred the appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
"Until 1 April 2025, the said commission did not see fit to render its decision, including on the question of the interim measures requested by SYNAFOC," Blaise said.
He continued: "Considering itself the victim of a denial of justice, SYNAFOC decided to refer the matter to the CAS, first in conciliation, then in arbitration on 1 May 2025."
Synafoc is now waiting to hear the outcome of the decision by CAS.
