Description

Description

The Olembe sports complex in the northern outskirts of Yaoundé includes a 60,000-seat stadium and was planned to have additional facilities such as training grounds, a five-star hotel, a shopping center, a museum, a cinema, and an Olympic swimming pool. The project originally secured about 110 hectares of land for the development as part of preparations for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations. However, construction delays disrupted the original plan, and many additional facilities were never built, leading to land disputes and informal occupation.
