Cameroon President Paul Biya has insisted his country will be ready to host next year's Africa Cup of Nations.

Mr Biya made the assurances to the president of the Confederation of African Football (Caf) Ahmad during a meeting in the capital, Yaounde on Tuesday.

In turn Ahmad added Caf had no plans to take the tournament away from Cameroon.

"President Biya has given us the assurance that he will give all to ensure that all the projects are completed on time," Mr Ahmad said.

"This meeting with President Paul Biya was for us to clear the air over recent stories on social media that Cameroon were going to forfeit the organisation of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations."
