Growing uncertainty surrounds the Accra 2023 African Games, with the Association of African Sports Confederations (AASC) threatening to boycott the continental multi-sport event if a row with the African Union (AU) is not resolved.
An agreement was signed between the AASC, AU and Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa (ANOCA) in 2018 relating to the ownership of the African Games.
However, ANOCA and the AASC were angered by the AU’s signing of a separate agreement with the Accra 2023 Organising Committee in April of this year.
The AASC, which was entrusted with technical coordination under the three-party agreement, has claimed that this means the initial arrangement “has been violated”.
