 By Kimbi V Muku

Minister Fuh Calistus Gentry, head of the CPDM senatorial campaign team to Donga Mantung Division has declared that all CPDM councilors will be caged for three days and will only be released to go and vote. The strategy to keep CPDM councilors from each council area together in one house he said is intended to avoid any kidnapping from SDF militants. Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry made the statement today April 6, 2013 in Nkambe during the official launching of CPDM senatorial campaigns in the Division. According to Dr. Fuh Calistus CPDM councilors will have to spend three days in an enclosed house and would be transported in luxury buses to the polling stations in Nkambe on April 14, 2013 where they will cast their votes. He observed that councilors have made themselves so cheap that they can easily be bought with ten thousand francs note. CPDM councilors of Nwa, Ako and Misaje councils, we gathered will be kept in three spots. Confidential sources hinted that councilors from Nwa will be lodged at Taku in Ndu Sub Division. According what we gathered, a certain Tamfu Simon has offered his residence in Taku for the purpose. More so, those from Ako will be lodged at Hon. JK Ntoi’s house while those of Misaje council will be lodged at Dr. Fuh Calistus’s residence. He cautioned all CPDM militants to shy away from any provocation because the SDF is ready to create unpleasant situations for results in a particular polling station to be cancelled.

Harping on the participation of the main opposition party in Cameroon, the SDF, the leader of the CPDM campaign team to Donga Mantung emphasized that the CPDM accepted SDF national chairman to come to the table because the CPDM “pitied him (Fru Ndi)”. He continued that the SDF has nothing to offer to Cameroonians given their candidates for senatorial election have created a lot of doubts. To Dr. Fuh Calistus, the victory of the CPDM resides in Donga Mantung Division reasons why senatorial campaigns will be person-to-person and not in public rallies. He wondered how the SDF did the selection of its candidates given that even their militants are complaining. “The senate is the place that people should be selected based on personal relationship as is the case in the SDF”. He called on the militants of the CPDM to be confident that it is Donga Mantung that will declared the closure of the SDF given that the SDF is already collapsing in Boyo. “We have allowed the CDU of Ndam Njoya to deal with them in the West Region” and as if to say all is done with the SDF, Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry continued that Kum Henry Echu (former SDF Provincial chairman) will be in Donga Mantung to talk to councilors emphasizing on the fact that there is no single drop of trust within the SDF. Reacting to the statement made by SDF National chairman that if CPDM bigwigs come to them they should collect the money and eat, Dr. Calistus Gentry said that the CPDM has people that are smarter. “We have with us people who will check that”, he reiterated. To Dr. Fuh Calistus, nothing will stop the CPDM from winning because their candidates have been selected based on competence and not personal relationship. Convinced that the CPDM has won up-front in the North West Region, he added that the five councilors’ gap between the CPDM and SDF has increased now with SDF decamped councilors like Fon Benchep Nfor Adamu, Ngingyu Beri and one councilor of Kudu that decamped as well as three others from Boyo. The gap he said is growing wider and wider.He said the CPDM candidates are credible personalities. Prof. Jikong he said is a man who has done alot in this country and voting him to senate is a blessing for the people of Donga Mantung Division.
