Togolese National team attacked. Driver killed, several players injured.















According to various reports the Togolese team bus has been attacked in Cabinda, Angola, after crossing into the country by road from Congo.

The latest news from Angola indicates that the driver of the bus has died from gunshot wounds. Four others have also been shot: two of them are players, reported to be Serge Akakpo and Kodjovi Obilale. A team doctor and another Togolese official of an unknown role were the other two victims.

The rest of the passengers, including the Togolese team, were immediately taken to the nearest hospital for injured players to receive treatment.

This is really so sad! Can't come to terms with what could have prompted the attack!! In deed the end times are NOW.. Brothers killing brothers!!
I pray God gives Togo as a nation the grace to pull through without devising a means of retaliation some day!!
