The Stade d'Olembe tragedy that occurred during the previous Africa Cup of Nations in Yaounde, Cameroon, left a dark mark on the tournament. However, in a heartwarming gesture, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has invited the families of the victims to attend the final match in Abidjan.
During an address to review the ongoing AFCON, CAF president Patrice Motsepe announced that the family members of the victims from Cameroon would be attending the final in Cote d'Ivoire. Motsepe expressed his condolences and revealed that CAF representatives had personally visited each family, offering support and sympathy in their time of grief.
