Abega gets three-month ban (22.08.2004)
Cameroon`s Football Federation have handed a three-month match ban to Canon Yaounde`s general manager Theophile Abega.
Fecafoot`s ban is effective from Monday, 23 August.
Abega, a former African Footballer of the Year and 1984 African Cup of Nations winner, was sanctioned for bringing the game into disrepute.
The former Cameroon international was found guilty of using abusive language on match officials in last weekend`s league match between Canon and Cotonsport Garoua.
Abega, whose side lost 4-0 to Cotonsport at home, had accused the officials of biased officiating.
He also stopped the match officials from going to the dressing room at the end of the game`s first half.
Policemen had to restrain Abega and his secretary, Ripolin Koungou, also banned for
threemonths, from a physical confrontation with the match officials.
Although BBC Sport witnessed Abega attacking Gilbert Maina, the secretary general of Cotonsport, in the stands, Fecafoot`s disciplinary committee did not take this into consideration when imposing sanctions on Abega.
This was because the incident was not mentioned in the match commissioner`s report.
Maina, who had asked Abega not to insult the referee and Fecafoot chieftains, was not the only club official in the line of fire.
Essomba Eyenga, president of Tonnerre Yaounde, sustained an injury on his left leg in an effort to protect Maina from Abega`s attack.
Canon, who have been struggling in the eight-team super league phase, are second from bottom.
