2 Players Missing in Libya!

Oh No! JAMI and HERVE YONE, 2 Cameroonian volleyball players operating in the Libyan club Misurata are reportedly MISSING. With the political unrest in Libya right now, we hope these 2 PLAYERS are SAFE.

More details…

According to THIS ARTICLE we’ve found, only 4 of the 6 players were able to escape the WAR. They are  George Kari Adeka (Al Jazeera), Valery Tatsi (Al-Ahli Tripoli), and Jean-Pierre Ndongo and Serge Ag (Al Nasser club).

Jami, Herve & the other 4 lived in remote areas therefore it was difficult for the other guys to get a hold of each other.

Jean-Pierre Ndongo (pictured) shared this to the press:

The club held our passports. The situation worsened. It was worse for blacks. With the help of Fécavolley President who called the Libyan federation’s president, I could get my passport. I took the road to Benghazi on the border with Egypt where there were 250 dams erected by both the opposition and the camp of the Libyan leader. My story is the same as my teammate, Sege Ag. I was in Benghazi. I saw dead bodies, stray bullets kill people. With all that I went through, I was traumatized. I will never go back to Libya.

Well we are glad the 4 of you are safe but we really hope Jami and Herve are alive. We can’t imagine the struggles of the people in Libya right now.

Even if their club teams promised they’d pay the players after the war, we still don’t think it’s worth it. Safety first over $$$.

Our hearts break when we think of the violence in Libya as well as the fate of its people.

Endless Hugs and Love for Libya!
