CAF has noted the escalating unbecoming and unprofessional behaviour of some “media practitioners” in working spaces at the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Cote d’Ivoire 2023.
Today, CAF met with Local Organising Committee (“COCAN”) and Police to discuss the situation and find workable solutions. CAF has engaged a number of Organisations represenating Journalists and raised the serious concerns on the behaviour of some “journalists” in media tribunes, media centres and mixed zones.
While we understand that we are all Football fans and are passionate about our National Teams, Journalists are expected to observe professional standards.
