Few hours after Danny Namaso was eligible for selection to the Indomitable Lions squad, a social media battle between the Ministry of Sport and Physical Education and the Cameroon Football Federation has erupted. The dispute here is to played an essential role in securing the FC Porto striker switch. However, the real issue isn’t the controversy itself but the evidence provided to justify that it was Professor Narcisse Mouelle Kombi, Minister of Sport, who oversaw the case.
Except that the evidence revealed contains the player’s personal information, which could already be exploited by anyone, since the correspondence from Minsep to Fecafoot
contains the player’s telephone number and e-mail address. Instead of a simple procedural debate, the voluntary or involuntary leak of the player’s sensitive information is causing concern for his safety.
Danny Namaso at risk
Danny Namaso now finds himself exposed to calls and letters of all kinds, considering the world we live in today where the slightest piece of information about a personality or a star requires discretion, however, Namaso’s telephone number and email address are no longer a matter of discretion, leaving him vulnerable.
This kind of confidential breach must end, especially if Cameroon want to win over other players with dual nationality making waves in Europe. The Cameroonian public rather than fueling more tensions between Minsep and Fecafoot, the focus should be on players protection for a united football community.
