EDITORIAL- Since November 30, the normalization committee has packed its bags to free the premises of the Guinean Football Federation which it has besieged for two years. Initially, given a mission which was not to exceed one year, Mariame Satina Sy’s team saw its lease extended for an additional year.
The reason given was that they still had enough to do to accomplish the tasks essential to the success of their mission.
Two years later, it’s still a mission that feels unfinished. So so-so. In absolute terms, we can certainly harbor regrets regarding CONOR’s record. Because one of the fundamental missions assigned to the institution, that of a return to normal order with the election of the new executive committee, this mission has not been achieved.
However, we can find excuses. First of all, the reign was not a smooth river. Football players have shown bad faith. Everyone acting to protect their chapel. Self-centeredness has annihilated the desire to achieve an honorable exit from the crisis, as is the case elsewhere. CONOR, for its part, is not exempt from criticism. He has often been criticized for being a partisan actor. This caused communications made by some of its members, which communications did not help to unite around an ideal.
Above all, we cannot spit on all the acts carried out by CONOR. The management of day-to-day affairs was not that bad. Under their reign, football continued to circulate, as best it could.
Beyond that, we must salute the management of the prospects with a historic contract negotiated with a local telephone company. Not to mention the other contract negotiated with one of the major construction companies in the area, which undertakes to finance Ligue 1. It’s a good step in the right direction.
To do this, we must put a cursor on the implications, at the cost of a media bombardment which regularly targeted Vice-President Séga Diallo and the Secretary General, Lancinet Kabassan Keita, who, moreover, must, alone , continue the adventure to achieve normalization.
CONOR leaves, but problems persist.
These problems, everyone agrees, are created by the actors themselves, who are at war with each other. Salifou Camara Super V, former President, has the reputation of being one of the arsonists of the crisis. His name is mentioned in the bad moves which aggravate the crisis. Himself being the definition of crisis, say several observers. As proof, it is insisted, that He was at the heart of Guinea’s first sanction by FIFA. Also at the heart of the crisis which brought about the first CONOR, we are reminded. It was the mid-2000s.
The same Super V, we regret, is cited as being the real instigator of the crisis which brought about CONOR two years ago. His name is still circulating, even though it smells bad for the future of Guinean football.
In a word, as in a thousand, CONOR shares with all the players in local football the poor results of its management.
