The championship was suspended on April 11 by the direction of the
LIFOBRA (league of Brazzaville) due to the troubles provoked by the
ninja militions in Brazzaville (who were close to the area of the
Stade Marchand where many (most?) matches are played).
It was resumed on May 14.

Regional Championship of Likouala
Held at Enyellé; competition abandoned after 4 from 6 rounds in
order to 'preserve human lives and the regional unity' following
unspecified 'anti-sporting behaviour' by certain directors and
supporters from the host district. The table after 4 rounds was
therefore declared final:
1.Patronage d’Impfondo 4 2 2 0 8
2.Cara d’Enyellé 4 2 2 0 8
3.Etoile d’Enyellé 4 0 3 1 3
4.Patronage d’Epéna 4 0 1 3 1
NB: clearly Impfondo and CARA were to meet each other in one of the
two remaining rounds.
Qualified for national championship: Patronage d'Impfondo.
Regional Championship of Niari
Champions: AC Léopard de Dolisie
NB: Niari's runners-up Socobois won a play off against a team from Bouenza
province for a place in the National Championship Playoff.
