In the world of sports, champions are forged on the pitch, yet their struggles reach well beyond the end goal. Franck Tchoupteng, the winner of the 2023 Douala International Marathon, represents the highs and lows experienced by athletes in Cameroon. Despite his notable achievements in the world of sports, he faces the challenges of not receiving the recognition he deserves and dealing with unkept promises.

Amid the jubilation of triumph, Tchoupteng’s joy was dampened by the harsh reality of economic inequality. Despite the apparent excitement of receiving a significant sum of 2.5 million CFA francs from the Minister of Sports, the actual situation is far from glamorous. Months have gone by since his victory, but the promised reward still seems out of reach. In a heartfelt video, Tchoupteng shared that he has only received a small portion of the promised amount—a mere 500,000 CFA francs, which he obtained after persistent pleas and appeals.

Tchoupteng has experienced a consistent pattern of disappointment when it comes to the disconnect between what is promised and what actually happens. He has been waiting for payment from Tara Sport for the past six months, which has caused him a lot of frustration. The delay in receiving his rightful dues highlights the concerning treatment of athletes in Cameroon. Their impressive accomplishments on the pitch are often overlooked due to a lack of attention and financial support from those in charge.

The situation faced by Franck Tchoupteng highlights the deep-rooted problems that exist within the sports sector in Cameroon. After their triumphs, athletes are left to fend for themselves, with little support or recognition. The absence of clear communication, responsibility, and prompt distribution of rewards cast a shadow on the standing of sporting institutions and dampens the spirits of athletes.

After the attention wanes and the applause subsides, it is crucial for authorities to acknowledge and tackle the concerns of athletes such as Franck Tchoupteng. In addition to receiving recognition, they should also be provided with practical assistance, just compensation, and respectful treatment. Only then can the genuine essence of sportsmanship thrive, and Cameroon’s sporting scene flourish with honesty and inclusivity.
