Clinton Njie encourages lionesses

Cameroon and Tottenham Hotspur striker, Clinton Njie, has visited the Indomitable Lionesses at their training camp at Muea-Buea as they prepare for the upcoming Africa Women Cup of Nations billed for November 2016 in Cameroon.

                Clinton Njie made the surprise visit on June 18 to encourage the girls as they begin their first phase of preparation ahead of the Africa Women’s AFCON.

                Njie, who is on holidays in his hometown, Buea, said it was wise to pay the Lionesses a visit and encourage them and let them know that Cameroonians are behind them.

                “I heard the Lionesses were in Buea, so i thought it wise to visit them and give them words of encouragement since i am also in Buea. The objective of my visit is to have a chat with them and also encourage them for the upcoming Africa Women Cup of Nations. Also, I wanted to let them know that Cameroonians care about them,” Njie explained.

                The Spurs striker hailed the Lionesses for the good work they have been doing and urged them to work harder for the Africa Women Cup of Nations.

                “I congratulate the Lionesses for the good job they have been doing,” Njie said.

                The Lionesses played lost 1-2 in a friendly against a local division two side, Cinyodev.

                They also on June 24 played another friendly against the SW Women’s selection at the LimbeOmnisport Stadium.

                The preparation at the Mount Cameroon Sports Academy in Muea will run from 16 to 30 June.
