Terreno Deportivo Cameroon: Casualty of the “Juju” Game
Football is a great game. Quite entertaining! But a lot of bizarre things are said about those who practice the sport to the extent that one begins to wonder if an outside force is not involved in every kick of the ball. Those who grew up in the villages are certainly used to rumours of how players of school teams were said to sleep in the grave yards on the eve of crucial matches. Or how people “tied” the legs of their opponents or “locked” them up in calabashes which they shock mercilessly outside the pitch as the encounter unfolded. And what about these international athletes who insist of “going to their villages for the last blessings” before taking off for a great expedition? Don’t ask me what they go to do in the villages.
