  1. Sick, sick, sick. Ironically, some people will claim that homosexuality is not a part of African culture. I guess these sick bastards didn’t get the memo.

    Just because you proclaim that something doesn’t exist, does not mean it doesn’t exist. Being in denial, suppressing (or not) your true sexual desires, even getting married and making a woman’s life miserable (closeted gay men are notorious for being emotionally & physically abusive because they feel pressured and compelled to be with a woman and produce offspring in order to adhere to so-called societal norms).

    When you bring kids into this, sexually abusing them, no matter their gender, you should receive the most severe of consequences.

  2. It’s commendable that BBC exposed this alleged ills in the Gabonese Football Association, and I strongly condemn any form of abuse on kids or anyone at that and we hope that someone takes the courage to sue them and prove their guilt.
    However, what I find repulsive is the headline, it is sensational and a disgusting clickbait and sad ignorance of the BBC, Gabon is not Africa, it is a country in Africa, but of course no one would watch if they wrote Gabon instead of Africa. This misleading headlines just needs to stop. Africa is not a continent of vices, there evils and atrocities been committed as well in Europe and other continents. Please stick with the location, instead of making it about an entire continent, it’s grossly unprofessional to do so.

  3. Someone needs to go to Cameroon. That’s another very corrupt society and I’m not gonna be shocked it’s happening there as I speak.

  4. so these guys gang together to harasse these young boys?? what happened to having a conscious?? this is beyond sad and evil. These are times I pray Saturn has a special place for molesters .

  5. FOR THE VICTIMS MY HEARTY SUPPORT. It shouldn't be surprising of the lack luster attention the different ruling bodies have taken to this nasty crime, you see what was done in that recent case in England how publicly it was and how far far back investigations went as my friend suggested at that it was breaking news look at the color of the skin of the suicide victim. I strongly disagreed then but now looking back and comparing to others he may have a strong point.
    How can one support monsters of this nature preying on young innocent minds and the others that are not mentioned but maybe still there carrying on . I get them and expose them.Disgusting and SHAME ON FIFA N THE GOVERNMENTS SUPPORTING N OFFER SHELTER TO THESE MONSTER .

  6. As a Ugandan that grew up obsessed with football, and went to school with a lot of youth national youth protests, we had our own scandal in the early 2010’s and unfortunately despite some of them being sentenced. With money and external( foreign influence), it was later swept under the rug.
    A shame because I personally knew some of the young ballers that fell victim to this.
    A lot of them were eventually ostracized, and many fled due to the shame

  7. Friends our ONLY hope and security in the world is Jesus. The Coach suppose to be a trainer but rather he's choose to been used by the devil to destroy lives and demonic in nature. The man must be possessed with an evil spirit. Please run to Jesus Christ in Him there is protection, joy, peace and safety in this cruel world. I love Jesus Christ He my Saviour and Lord. Surrender your heart to Jesus now and be save. Jesus loves you

  8. You're talking about Gabonese Football and you generalise it to mean African Football. If English Football has a problem do we say it's the whole European football? You people are part of the problems of Africa.

  9. Every one had heard about this for decades. Unfortunately they chose to make lewd jokes about it instead of stopping it. Hard to feel sorry for a society like that. 🤷
