He noted that national federations will work closely with the technical departments of Regional Olympic and Sports Committees to guarantee effective preparation and execution of the Games.
With momentum building and coordination strengthening, the Douala 2026 Dixiades are on course to stand out as a major sporting rendezvous, showcasing Cameroon’s commitment to sports development and excellence.
