Panthère Sportive du Ndé has strongly reacted to accusations made by Colombe du Dja et Lobo, following a recent match. The Ndé club issued a statement on February 26, 2026, to refute the allegations of its counterpart from Dja et Lobo, which accuses an elite from the Ndé department of having influenced the refereeing.
According to Panthère Sportive du Ndé, these accusations are "false" and aim to mask Colombe's poor performance at the start of the season. The Ndé club recalls that Colombe left the field after a penalty was awarded to Panthère, a penalty that the club considers justified.
Panthère did not fail to recall that Colombe had benefited from favorable arbitration decisions during the final of the Cameroon Cup on December 14, 2025, including a generous penalty and a penalty refused to Panthère. The club is surprised by this "selective memory" on the part of Colombe.
In addition, Panthère Sportive du Ndé wished to specify that the elite of Ndé, questioned by Colombe, was not present in Bandjoun during the match, and therefore could not have influenced the referees as claimed. The club demands proof of the accusations made by Colombe and says it is ready to collaborate with the competent authorities to establish the truth.
Panthère Sportive du Ndé reaffirms its commitment to the values of fair play and respect, stressing that it does not endorse the idea that the results justify all means. Tension is rising between the two clubs after this match and these exchanges of statements. The rest of the season promises to be potentially explosive between these two teams.
