She finished 5th with a throw of 15m31 during the shot put competition at the last African Games in Accra. Today, at the Olembe Sports Complex, in Yaoundé, during the International Grand Prix of the Confederation of African Athletics, Carine Mekame Ndong took her revenge by brilliantly winning the competition with a throw at 15 m 80. A throw very far from his performance in Accra.
In the high jump, Elca Charles Ambourouet placed 2nd in the event (1m 95). The jumper, despite this silver medal, is no longer able to beat his own record which is 2.10 m.
