Geneveva Atonma an Eqatoguinean footballer,who once won Female footballer of the year,reveals how she was humiliated by CAF cos they thought she was a man.
Prior to the 2011 FIFA women's World cup,Anonma and two other players from Guinea were forced to strip in front of officials in order to prove that that were not men,this ordeal came after Geneveva and two others were accused of being male by opponents.
Though Anonma rejected the allegations,the African Football Authorities still forced her to take off her clothes in front of officials from CAF and her own team.
Speaking to BBC journalists,she lamented."I was crying,my morale was low,it was totally humiliating but over time I have got over it"
Anonma is the first foreigner to win the Bundesliga top scorer award,when she scored 22 goals in the 2011-12 seasons,and in 2012,she was named African women footballer of the year.
