They deserve it...

ibson99:
CAF ain't smiling, i like that, football is serious business

They lost a lot of revenue....plus relocation takes money.

Hence the anger.

I wonder if Nigerians would have accept to host nations cup during Ebola fears. I know over two third the people on nairaland would have refused such move amid fear of ebola


So from Moroccan point is understandable. If it was any day they would have host it but it was a deadly epidemic with no cure and fast spread. Who won't fear for his life over a tournament

Na wa Ooo

Good .CAF should also move their headquarters to west or central Africa.

olu77:
Good for them

Will that affect their economy?

They where proactive enough to prevent that urgly disease from their country.

CAF is on its own. Indian is doing well without FIFA

India is a FIFA member....

The India national football team is governed by the All India Football Federation (AIFF). Since 1948, the AIFF has been affiliated with FIFA, the international governing body for football. In 1954, the AIFF became one of the founding members of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). At the peak of its success during the 1950s and 1960s, the team was automatically advanced to play in the 1950 FIFA World Cup (all the other Asian teams withdrew), but they did not go to the tournament in Brazil due to the cost of travel, lack of practice time, team selection issues and valuing the Olympics over the FIFA World Cup.[2] They won gold medals at two Asian Games and one silver at the Asian Cup.

Hmmm... that is a salient point you made

When CAF gets angry.....CAF gets angry.

But I do not blame Morroco....it is cheaper to prevent Ebola from entering your country....than it is to treat a few dozen cases of the illness.

African countries....improve thy public health. We have a serious situation here.

what are u saying? Has ebola entered equitorial guinea now?

IN BUHARI'S VOICE: "WETIN I QUANCINE ME?"

ekemit:
You can't really blame them prevention is better than cure.

yet they hosted world club cup featuring R Madrid from Spain at a time when first Ebola case was discovered there

They refuse to host AFCON but hosted the Club World Cup succesfully

Morocco is a big disgrace to Africa. They see themselves as Arabs and not Africans. That is why they are not part of African Union. The most annoying thing is that they agreed to host the FIFA Club World Cup. It just shows that they do not respect Africa.

Shame on Morocco
Shame on Royal Federation.

This is why I love Nigeria.
Even with Ebola, I am very sure that Nigeria will have put measures in place to host the Nations Cup, if we were given the rights since 2011.

Good one by CAF.

Of course not....and I even thought the Morrocans over-reacted. But...that is what you pay your health experts to do if you are the leader of a country or a football association....over-react.

In health care....better to be safe than sorry. Sawyer flew into Nigeria...with a fever. Like hundreds of other people. Who wants to take a chance that one of them has Ebola?

wetin this girl they find for football thread huh?

Pls someone should throw her out quick!

1 million dollars! That's too much.
They should take caf to the court of arbitration.

bushdoc9919:

My point is clear bro; you don't trade the safety of your citizens for a tournament that have no "meaning". CAF should have postpone that tournament amidst the outbreak of the deadly ebola disease.

No sane country would have accepted that.

EQui Gui saw it as an opportunity to show to the world the little they have

Well, I guess we all how it turned out

And court of arbitration may still rule in CAF's favour....Morocco did not keep to the contract.

passionate88:
They should have been banned from world cup qualifiers also

God forbid oh..but what if a single case of ebola was discovered at the ongoing AFCON competition?
what would u av said?

hmmn Hayatu don vex...serves them right they should be band till 2099 sef e ne concern me..

Why didn't we accept it when Morroco withdrew?

Do you think 1million can erradicate ebola disease?

The Royal family in Maroc did the right thing.

Morroco is like a European country inside Africa. They know better.

How about Equitorial Guinea?

They deserve more

We did not accept it because of elections. So you know, it is one thing to take responsibilities given to you and a totally different thing to put your head in what does not concern you. Nigeria did not sign a contract with CAF to host the Nations Cup, Morocco did, we are not obligated to host for them!

Abi ooo...and to tink that Guinea(a country strike by ebola virus) plays all her qualifying game for AFCON right there in Morocco for that matter...Morocco has no case. They just wan fall Africa hand afterall they are Arab in the first instance.

Una been dey support Morocco not to host the nations cup even tease naija join say if na dem they will go ahead to host despite Ebola but now una dey enjoy the game

End time things. Just like you accept the mark of the beast no matter your condition (in tribulation season for unbelievers) or you pay for it

Makes sense.....So far so good, has there been any reported case of Ebola in Equatorial Guinea?

............
You have a point but 1 m dolls and 2 nation's cup ban.......That's too harsh as far as I am concerned.It's worth going to court.....win or lose.
