In order to have objectivity and fairness, the organisers of the 2021 African Cup of Nations, have delegated the duties of testing players for covid-19 to the internationally recognized laboratory.
Mismanagement has characterised covid19 tests in the CAF inter-clubs competitions recently which has led to several calls for the football body to take up the responsibilities upon itself.
According to the statements released on Thursday evening, the internationally recognized laboratory will conduct the test on players under strict supervision.

” For the sake of objectivity and neutrality and in order to guarantee confidence-building measures on both sides, CAF will call on an internationally recognized independent laboratory to test the players of qualified national teams and their supervision,” the statement said.
Participating teams are expected to arrive in Cameroon before January 9th when the opening game will take place.
