Dieudonné Nsambi, president of the FECOFA standardization committee, as well as his collaborators Guy Kabeya and Innocent Kibundulu, were recently arrested by the authorities before being released. This arrest has raised many questions and speculations, but no official reason has been given at this time.
This comes against the backdrop of FECOFA recently announcing a new format for the Linafoot schedule, as well as the release of next season’s dates and fixtures. In addition, the designation of qualified clubs in Africa for the next season was also announced.
While the precise details of the arrest and the reasons behind it remain unclear, it is important to follow developments closely. FECOFA plays a key role in the organization of football in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and any major event that affects its leaders can have an impact on the functioning and stability of the sport in the country.
It is essential to note that this arrest does not seem to be linked directly to the activities of FECOFA, but rather to external factors which are not yet known.
We therefore remain on the lookout for future developments and additional information regarding this inquiry. Sport in the DRC is an important pillar of society, and it is crucial that sports leaders can perform their duties transparently and without hindrance.
In the meantime, football fans and sports stakeholders in the DRC will continue to focus on upcoming fixtures, the performance of qualified clubs in Africa and what’s at stake next season. Despite this unexpected event, the passion for football remains intact and fans are hoping for a quick resolution of this matter so that the sport can regain its full momentum.
