Gabon deserves to host 2017 AFCON
Gabon’s Sport Minister Blaise Louembe explained yesterday during sport national TV show “Le grand sport” the reasons why CAF selected Gabon for hosting this 31st edition of the African Cup of Nations.
According to the Sport Minister, it is our savoir faire, stability and our innovative telecom services that foster the CAF selection.
Gabon has proved its capacity to be ready for such an event during the joint host with Guinea Equatorial. Gabon; though co-host at the time shined by its superb organization.
The political stable situation of Gabon is also a key reason to let Gabon host the event. Unlike, Algeria which experience unstable situation might have compromised their candidacy.
Also, Gabon’s innovation as far as Telecommunication is concerned proves that Gabon disposes of the highest standard of infrastructure as well as the European one.
For the Minister, CAF thought of giving his chance of Gabon, which is from far the country which has least host an AFCON compared to its competitors.
