Egypt has abandoned the race for hosting the 2017 African Cup of Nations, handing a major boost to the chances of Ghana hosting the event.

This means that three nominees are still competing for hosting this event which are Algeria , Ghana and Gabon .

The reasons behind this decision were not announced but still , they’re so predictable .

The Egyptian football has suffered during the last years from a lot of violent events in the stadiums.

Recently , a lot of supporters were killed during a first league game which obliged the Egyptian federation of football to suspend the league .

In addition , the political situation in Egypt is not quiet stable which will make it harder for this country to host such a big event .

If the information is confirmed , Algeria ‘s chances to host this competition will get even bigger.

The decision about the competition hosts will be made on April 8th .
