Samuel Eto’o has rejected his salary as the President of the Cameroon Football Federation, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Four times African player of the year has been praised by many Africans since assuming office as the President of the Cameroonian football federation.

The legend promise not to receive salaries as president and instead, such wages were diverted toward players’ well-being in the Cameroon Leagues.

As part of his policies to ensure players earn the right amounts for their work, Eto’o has advocated for high wages for players in the Cameroonian women’s football league, the Guineas Super League.

“The salaries of home-based players are already known. Any club president that does not pay players will no longer receive subsidies!

I’m giving the players the right to press charges against clubs that don’t pay them, and FECAFOOT will pay them directly from the subsidies that the clubs in question had to benefit from.”

“I’ve come to put things in order. I don’t speak; I act. The money I invest in Cameroon football during my tenure must have a convincing outcome.”

According to reports, the women league players will be paid 100,000frs a month. Whilst the headline sponsor is expected to pay each of them an amount of 50,000frs, Eto’o personally decided to add 50,000frs more to each player’s monthly earnings.

Another initiative made in the best interest of the players by the FECAFOOT president is an instruction he gave out for every club to ensure that, players are duly enrolled on the National Social Insurance Fund, CNPS.
