Cameroon’s Indomitable Lionesses are on the verge of harvesting yet another quarterfinal ticket at the FIFA Women’s World Cup today.

The 2015 quarterfinalists rub shoulders with England at 4:30pm later today.

Cameroon qualified to the round of 16 after a hard earned 2-1 victory against New Zealand on match day three.

The head coach of the Lionesses, Alain Djeumfa has acknowledged England is a better side but mentains his girls are set for this evening’s duel.

During a pre-match conference in Valenciennes Saturday, sensational defender Esther Johnson also promised the team would put on a good game.

The Lionesses count on the expertise of Ajara Nchout and Gabrielle Onguene in their fourth outing of the tournament.

The 26-year-old Ajara neted in two goals to qualify Cameroon to this stage of the 2019 Women’s World Cup in France.

 

 

The Queen’s team is a better side tonight given that they have won all their three groups stage games in the ongoing Female Football show piece.

However, they are seemingly a lesser opponent for Cameroon compared to USA and France who have better performances in the competition.

This Sunday’s confrontation between Cameroon and England is reminiscent of the July 1, 1990 controversial
Men’s Quarterfinal World Cup meeting which ended 3-2 in favour of the English side.

Expectations are that, today’s encounter should be void of biased decisions from the referee, as many say was the case 29 years ago with the male teams.

Canal 2 Journalist Suspended Over Muyuka Baby Killing

TWIF News has got reliable information that the renowned Canal 2 English journalist who did the first on-the field report on the Muyuka baby’s killing has been suspended from hosting his Political show “Newsroom.”

A credible source told TWIF News that Dominic Meme Nwakimo was suspended by Canal 2 hierarchy, days after he returned from Muyuka.

His suspension from anchoring “Newsroom” every Saturday was influenced by “pressure from the regime,” says our source.

Newsroom Host, Dominic Meme Nwakimo 

Our source revealed that the government expressed its dissatisfaction with the report which indicted state security and defence forces, for the murder of the four month-old Martha Mbuh.

“After watching the report at the ministries of Communication and that of Defence, they called the Director of Canal 2,” the source intimated.

Dominic Meme however, was barred just from hosting “Newsroom,” but has been carrying out other reporting functions, TWIF News has learned. He was first given an indefinite suspension which took effect from Saturday May 25, barely four days after his report.

The suspension was later reduced to a month, but it remains unclear the circumstances behind the reduction.

However, TWIF News’ source also said that the political reporter undertook the Muyuka journey without authorisation from his media organ.

When TWIF News reached out to the Coordinator of Canal 2 English who now anchors the program, Ntaryike Divine Jr. qualified the information as “hearsay” and said “Newsroom” has no permanent anchor.

“Newsroom which I conceived is not a personal belonging. We take turns: Kejang, Ntaryike and Meme,” he declared.

He declined to divulge any further information about the suspension which TWIF News understands is expected to end this Friday June 21 at midnight. Unless there are further changes from the organisation’s hierarchy, Dominic Meme is due to host the program this Saturday, says our source.
