Didier Drogba on CAF's INSANE Ruling:
"My brothers and sisters in African football… today I speak with a heavy heart.
In January, we all watched Senegal fight with courage and defeat Morocco in a historic final.
It was a night of passion, sacrifice, and pride for the entire continent.
From Dakar to Abidjan, from Lagos to Nairobi — Africa celebrated its champions.
But now, months later, a decision taken in a boardroom has changed that story.
The Confederation of African Football Appeal Board overturns the result… and suddenly a victory earned on the pitch is taken away.
This is not just about one trophy.
This is about the credibility, the dignity, and the soul of African football.
Yes, rules must exist. Discipline must exist.
But when decisions arrive long after the final whistle, they create doubt, confusion, and pain.
They make the world question our organisation, our seriousness, our unity.
And we know how quickly critics speak.
They will point to moments like this to belittle the Africa Cup of Nations, to call it chaotic, to reduce its greatness.
But Africa is not small.
Africa has produced giants — players who have conquered Europe and inspired millions.
From Samuel Eto'o to Mohamed Salah, from Sadio Mané to Riyad Mahrez.
Our talent is unquestionable.
Our passion is unmatched.
What we need now is leadership that protects the image of our game.
Leadership that builds trust, transparency, and stability for the next generation.
If justice must be sought, then let it be sought — even before the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
But beyond this case, we must look within ourselves and ask:
What future are we building for African football?
Because our fans live for these moments.
Our players give everything for that badge.
We must not allow uncertainty and politics to steal the joy of victory from our people.
Africa deserves respect.
African football deserves strong foundations.
We are giants…
and giants must stand tall together."
@AineahOmondi@AokoOtieno_ Bro, this guy is overqualified. Come huku KAA, you will find guyz walikula E KCSE with cooked diploma certs wako pale earning salo proper, since he was brought in by so and so
@ntvkenya It's really sad, why do we have to involve njuri ncheke and the chiefs yet, this thing has been happening under their watch. Pedophilic disorder is also a mental health issue and needs to be taken in to consideration. Unearth and arrest those culprits to face the law.
You don’t fight corruption you fuel it! That’s the naked truth! If the bill is not yours why don’t you allow parliament to do its work, which is to draft, amend, pass or reject any legislations ? The truth is EACC wants to amend four legislations, which exist to fight corruption by using a new bill. You should have sort for a miscellaneous amendment bill but not a new bill. I take great exception to your falsehood press release, which only reinforces my position on the floor of the house, which I stand by. My job is to oversight you and clearly I can confirm that you are not interested in fighting corruption in Kenya.
