Olopeng hits out at ANOCA

Briefing the media yesterday, Olopeng said during his visit to the All Africa Games in Congo Brazaville, he attended a AUSC Region V caucus meeting on September 2, 2015, where it was upheld that the games should remain under the custody of the African Union Sport Council (AUSC), on behalf of the member states. “ANOCA president wrote a letter to the African Union (AU) demanding full ownership of the games and cede the use of the AU anthem, logo and flag during the games,” he said.

Olopeng further indicated that ANOCA also demanded African governments to finance the games but as a silent partner.
