In an interview with the team, Enza Yamissi is concerned about the current situation in Central Africa. The country is experiencing a resurgence of violence since last weekend, following the coup d’état. Rebels took control of power, breaking President François Bozizé.

“I am a patriot, this is my country … Due to my status as captain of the Central African national team, my teammates and I would get this messenger that peace returns soon. Already at the base, we are a very poor country … If the little we have, we begin to destroy, it will be very difficult. “

“The problem is that they have closed the borders. No plane can land … We went to play in South Africa for a qualifying match for Afcon. Some players and coaches have not been able to return, they are blocked in Cameroon. Same thing for foods … If borders remain closed and if the conflict continues, it will become difficult to feed. “

In 2006, the Ivorian, Didier Drogba had made the same gesture calling for peace in his country. Yamissi just wants to return to calm, nothing else.

“Honestly, I do not know if it will be used for something. And I do not take for Drogba or whatever. But with my teammates, we could do nothing. As I said, we are not a large country, but through our status as footballers, we are respected there. I hope it will get things moving. We really want this conflict to end quickly, with the least possible violence. Calm must get back to our lovely country. “
