Officials of the PWD Bamenda have express discontent with
the disrespect of own laws by the Professional Football League.
In a release
made public by the Team Press officer TPO Abongwa Fozo, the authorities of the
club are worried as to why the Homologation Committee of the Professional
League has refused to make public the decision of its Tuesday April 17, in
Yaounde to “deliberate on the PWD vs Ngaoudere University FC match which was
won by forfeiture by PWD Bamenda.” |

According to the release “the outcome of that meeting is
still awaited by the football public in general and the fans and supports of
PWD Bamenda in particular.”
Indicating that “the Team President Abunde Pascal and his
collaborators have been doing everything possible to see that the rules and
regulations governing the Prefessional Football are applied in strict
interpretation of the law, the release further says “on Thursday April 12, the
President of PWD Bamenda sent a correspondence to the LFPC reminding the SG of
the league that pursuant of article 20 of the rules and regulations of the MTN
Elite II Championship 2018, the match that failed to hhold on march 24 was
supposed to have been homologated per the text not more than 14 days after the
said date.”
PWD authorities are thus calling “for the match to be
homologated as soon as possible so that the team should be clear about it’s
position before the Canon match” played Monday April 16; a request which was
never granted.
The management of PWD has however continued with the push
for the decision to be made public as soon as possible with the Club President
maintaining that the decision be made public before their next game.
“The management of PWD and fans continue to wonder aloud
while this specific delay in the case of PWD Bamenda and suspects this could be
manipulation by the committee to favour and disfavour some teams at the same
time.” The release states
Unlike the General Classification that puts PWD Bamenda on
spot number three with 22 points behind Canon and Lion Blesse with 23points
each, the PWD Bamenda Team Press Officer’s release rather puts PWD top of the
league Table saying “while awaiting the publication of this decision we
consider that PWD is topping the Elite II on 25points, followed by Canon
Yaounde and Lion Blesse on 23points each.”
The league has however not made any official statement as
relates the matter.
