Absent Drogba 'stripped of award'

BBC, February 4, 2008

Drogba was named Africa's Player of the Year in 2006
Didier Drogba says he does not wish to be considered for future African player of the year awards after Frederic Kanoute won the 2007 title.


The Ivory Coast striker is playing at the Africa Cup of Nations in Ghana and claims he was told he had won but had to travel to Togo to accept the prize.

"This attitude doesn't honour Africa so I've pulled out of future elections."
