There are as many as 10,000 people protesting in Lome, Togo over the suspension of the Togolese football team.
The BBC online said in this article that the Confederation of African Football had suspended Togo for the next two tournaments.
The reason for the ban was Togo’s sudden withdrawal from the tournament in Angola.
The reason for the withdrawal was an attack on Togo’s team bus in January that killed two officials.
The reason for the suspension was what the CAF called the interference by the Togolese government. The CAF insisted that the team should not have been allowed to withdraw because they claim some of the players still wanted to play.
Welcome to Africa, where a little thing like an attack on the team bus shouldn’t interfere with anything as important as football
