The International Cycling Union, which oversees the race considered the northern zone and Eastern region as being dangerous.
Lovers of cycling in the northern regions of Cameroon will not experience the international cycling Tour 2015 expected from 13th to 22nd March, 2015.
The situation in this region, marked by bloody incursions of the Islamist sect Boko Haram in the far North, has led the International Cycling Union (Uci) to ask the Cameroonian cycling Federation (Fecacyclisme) to the Northern region; the organization that governs cycling in the world to make the request in a letter written January 20, 2015."
For the association, the northern part is concerned by insecure", explained to the head of communication of the Fecacyclisme cell, Jean-Baptiste Biayé.
The eastern region also is in the viewfinder, which has also often been the target of belligerents in the Central African crisis. "The UCI knows that Eastern and Northern regions are risky areas", justifies Biayé.
According to him, the Federation therefore had no other choice than to comply with the requirements of the world umbrella body.
