Samuel Eto'o: Cameroonian legend under investigation for match fixing
Samuel Eto'o, the head of the Cameroonian Football Federation, is under investigation for match-fixing.

He made the decision to vehemently deny the reports that he is the person whose voice can be heard in the recording that is being broadcast across the world.
Victoria United president’s club statement
Valentine Nkwain, president of Victoria United said, as reported by Footcam, “For the past few days, a voice note has been circulating on social media in which we can hear a supposed conversation between the President of the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT) and the president of our football club.
“We would like to inform the public that this so-called voice message is not recognized by the president of our dear football club.
“With all that a popular club like Victoria United alias Opopo is doing for the South West and Cameroonian football, we cannot accept this manipulation, lies and falsification.
“Our lawyers are working to file a complaint against the people responsible for circulating these false rumours so that they can prove the authenticity and source of the voice notes and other information circulating on social media.”
