Fonkam Azu'u Cautions Political Parties on Risk of Commenting on Elecam Statistics

 Fai Cassian Ndi

Before leaving Donga Mantung Division today August 14, 2013, the President of Elections Cameroon, has declared that he is satisfied with the level of mobilization and the open mindedness of stakeholders.  Dr. Fonkam Azu’u reiterated “the necessity for everyone to withdraw the voters’ card and to vote with that card as required by law”. He called on the Press to drum the message so that all the cards are collected within record time. He emphasized that the law is very clear that people can only vote with the voters’ card and that they can only use the identity cards to identify themselves.

Harping on whether it is the responsibility of a political party to give statistics on the number of voters cards distributed, Dr. Fonkam Azu’u said that it is not the role of any political party to distribute cards and or disseminate information on the process. “It is the duty of political parties to have those statistics, we are not hiding them but it is not the role of the political party to comment because they are not their statistics” he re-echoed. He insisted that the role of the political party is to sensitize militants to collect the voters’ cards. He also announced that all the cards of the North West Region were printed and the cards will be available for distribution before August ending. It should be recalled that 82771 voters’ cards were printed and dispatched to Donga Mantung Division for distribution yet only 45.517 cards have been withdrawn.

However, Dr. Fonkam Azu’u had difficulties to resolve a case where by it is alleged that some cards were withdrawn without the owners being present. Notwithstanding, a school of thought holds that the ELECAM staff may have been tricked by some politicians while another opinion holds that voters' cards should henceforth be distributed only when all commission members being present or withdrawn by their owners. Besides, it is also aired that some smart politicians could have developed a scheme to outsmart the staff by pocketing some of the cards as allegations are rife that one man was spotted holding over 30 cards. 
It should be noted that Dr. Fonkam's regional tour is intended to encourage voters to collect their voters' cards.

Talking to journalists after the strategic meeting in Nkambe on August 11, 2013, Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry revealed that strategies have been put in place with the administration to make sure that within two weeks all voters’ cards are distributed. He said that 45.517 cards have been distributed making a percentage of 50%. With 82.771voters cards already printed and dispatched to Donga Mantung Division, Dr. Fuh Calistus was optimistic that Donga Mantung Division is on a good footing. Accordingly, Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry added that the distribution of voters' card is a civic responsibility reasons why the administration was part of the meeting yet observers were aghast at the fact that the Press was not allowed inside the hall which was indicative that something obnoxious was being cooked. 

Elated by the fact that he also used the opportunity to console Hon. Ntoi and Abdou Borno Kamfon, he (Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry) declared that the CPDM will surely win all the councils of Donga Mantung in the upcoming September 30, Twin Elections.  

It should be recalled that Hon. JK Ntoi and Abdou Borno Kamfon were honoured as Golden militants for succumbing to the dictates of the CPDM investiture. Tension had escalidated in Donga Mantung Division after the designation of CPDM Parliamentary candidates in the Ako/Misaje Special Constituency, Donga Mantung East and Donga Mantung Centre.

Hon. JK Ntoi was applauded for leaving his parliamentary bid and blessings to Abe Michael while Abdou Borno Kamfon who was tricked by the gender sensitive component gave his parliamentary bid to the little known Mbonyor Naomi Ngandong Nfor. 

Talking to journalists after the reconciliation meeting at the Nkambe Council Club, Dr. Fuh Calistus Gentry, Head of the CPDM Central Committee Delegation said that the conflict between the outgoing mayor of Nwa and the Member of Parliament for Nwa has been settled amicably. The conflict in Nwa is reported to have reached crisis level following the endorsement of Hon. Genesis Mbucksek, incumbent as CPDM Parliamentary candidate. Dr. Ngomfe Loma David, Senator Jikong Stephen Yeriwa were aghast with the choice and tempers are reported to have flared given that their candidate Nyanganji Job was not favoured. It is even alleged that Dr. Ngomfe Loma David had been campaigning for the SDF candidate. As to whether the reconciliation was genuine remains a mystery given that some of the protagonists had visited witch doctors etc.On his part, Nyanganji Job told this reporter that he was delighted that Dr. Fuh Calistus took the initiative to heal wounds. Harping on the manner at which politics is involving in Donga Mantung Division, he said he was impressed that elected officials will have to work harder due to the fact that they are now aware of the potential challengers.

Construction of Nkambe Telecenter Sparks Controversy as Minister Inaugurates Five Others

By Fai Cassian

Biyiti Bi Essam in Ako

Minister Jean Pierre Biyiti-bi Essam has inaugurated five multi-media telecentres in the North West Region as part a precious gift of President Paul Biya to foster Vision 2035, yet the would-be telecenter for Nkambe was not inaugurated. Before performing the symbolic ritual of the cutting of the ribbon, Post and Telecommunication Minister Jean Pierre Biyiti bi Essam said the centres meet standards and were conceived to serve the people without discrimination. From Jakiri to Oku, through Ako, Misaje down to Ewoh in Batibo, post and telecommunication minister stressed that the centers are indispensible tools for human existence and assets of human development especially as with the click of a mouse one can make a tour of the world.

It is a poverty-alleviation project that checks rural exodus, creates indirect jobs, opens chances for competition in business ventures and enhances the government’s resolve to decentralize, he observed.

Each centre carries infrastructure, computers, information equipment and furniture worth about FCFA 70 million. They are open to the general public and cover compartments with opportunities for postal services, ICTs, telecommunications, training, financial services, telephone, internet, e-mail, typing, digitalised photo printing and video editing studios. In Misaje for example, the centers also habours a community radio which will go a long way to disseminate viable information to the population.

The mayor of Misaje Council Nkenda Simon Sunde expressed gratitude to President Biya and “his hardworking Prime Minister for making Misaje part of the global village”. He applauded that the construction of the telecenter has narrowed the gap between his municipality and the outside world. But outlined that the energy strength will be insufficient to serve the radio and the telecenter.

On the other hand, NUDP national Youth President decried that the project was hijacked for political aggrandizement which he described as pathetic. He however recalled that it was thanks to Bello Bouba Maigari that Misaje benefited from the project when he visited Misaje when he was minister of post and telecommunication.  

Public opinion is questioning why Minister Biyiti Bi Essam could as well inaugurate the Nkambe telecenter. A school of thought holds that it is because the building constructed do not meet up with the standards. Besides, it is even alleged that funds allocated were siphoned by unknown individuals given that the structure in its entirety looks like a boy’s quarter. A classified source hinted that Minister Biyiti Bi Essam is aware and that elements of the Supreme State audit have been alerted on the controversy surrounding the Nkambe telecenter.

Presidential 2018: From Parliamentary Hopeful, Teche Nyamusa Declares Presidential Ambitions

 Felix Teche Nyamusa, a one-time parliamentary aspirant for Mbengwi Central whose parliamentary bid ended in columns of newspapers and internet posts, has declared his Presidential ambitions for 2018. Yet he has been inconsistently inconsequential given that he backtracks quite often. In another move, Felix Teche Nyamusa has gone hell-wire declaring that he will contest in the upcoming Presidential Elections Cameroon of 2018 on SDF ticket.  Public is doubting the seriousness in his declaration given that he spent over a year mobilizing for parliamentary elections but when time for primaries drew near, he almost dumped his ambition. Eventhough he was handicapped by the gender sensitivity component, doubts were casted as to whether he would have made it in the primaries. Here below is his declaration

2018 Cameroon Presidential: Felix Teche Nyamusa for President
Darling fellow Cameroonians, I, Felix Teche Nyamusa former SDF Mbengwi Parliamentary hopeful humbly submit for your appraisal my candidacy for the 2018 Cameroon Presidential Elections on my Party, the Social Democratic Front (SDF) ticket.
Considering that it is less than five years from now before this all important event (Presidential Poll in a corrupt, heavily indebted and poor country, Cameroon, that has had barely two Presidents in more than 50 years), we think enough time is not on our side to create meaningful change through the ballot box here. Hence our decision to kick starts planning immediately.
Fellow compatriots, help me pilot the fulfilment of our dreams for a contemporary befitting country. This call goes to Cameroonians of all walks of life, of all political opinion shades and of all ages. Once more dear country men and women, collaborators and myself, fully aware of the gimmicks that characterize Cameroon politics, have decided to be proactive - hence our beginning to talk and plan for this very important scheme right now and not targeting but some indefinite future !
    My biggest challenge, folks, supposedly will be to emerge as my party, SDF, flag bearer. After this stage, any other candidate be he/she from the ruling CPDM or other parties will be a walk over considering the strategy my campaign committee has in stock.
    Meanwhile, fellow compatriots, I urge all potential voters to collect their vote cards prepaid to vote and defend their votes, the SDF Parliament and Council Candidates come 30 September 2013. The SDF is the only Cameroon-salvation-hope. The party has again for the umpteenth time decided to test the claim of the very unreliable CPDM regime to a level transparent electoral playfield. My/Our warning to the insensitive Biya regime is that Cameroonians for too long have been over ill-politically stretched. Consequences of further manipulations? ! … Let the national and international community note this as 2013 Parliament, council and further polls are conducted.
    Back to the Felix Teche Nyamusa for President Bid - we will not accept any manipulations which include shifting of Presidential election date from the 2018 schedule.
    We have what it takes to ensure an effective renewal of government. The Presidency is an apex position, thus the President is the ultimate Cameroonians’ servant. Thus Cameroonians will, I have no doubts; give utmost attention to me (upon unleashing the worth-while manifesto in stock) for maximum service to them.
    Cameroonians know too well what a good electoral code, elections management body is. It will be up to the incumbent regime with our concern to modify adequately what passes today as governance paraphernalia less before the Presidential rendezvous, business as usual here will be a far cry!
    I plan to make Cameroon a space, Silicon Valley or contemporary technology/need destination in my reign as President of the nation. However, before this, roads for a rural economy like ours take pride of place. Even Douala and Yaounde the “Most Urban” of our towns still fall far below mediocre standards when it comes to roads. Inter and intra city roads, farm to market roads will be given priority to in the Nyamusa government. Simultaneously to be tackled as the roads network, is in-depth restructuring of the present school scheme from nursery to university (tertiary) levels that will confidently propel the Cameroon economy to a contemporary developed one – a scheme that will produce jobs-creating graduates at each stage of completion not certificates-carrying enthusiasts who are predominantly employment seekers as obtained today, is our candid aspiration.
    A befitting manifesto, dear country folks, will be made available in the days ahead.
Thanks a million
God Guide Cameroon!
Felix Teche Nyamusa, 2018 Cameroon
Presidential hopeful
28 July 2013.

SCNC Activists Arrested in Kumbo

 Cameroonian authorities have once again arrested Mr. Nfor Ngala Nfor, the current National Chairman of the Southern Cameroons National Council (SCNC) along with 79 other SCNC leaders and activists on Saturday, July 27th in Ndzrinji-Kumbo during a private meeting. The detained SCNC activists were arrested by a team of Gendarmes and local Cameroonian police forces and are believed to have been unlawfully detained and tortured during the arrest. They are currently being held incommunicado at the Kumbo Gendarmerie Brigade and the Kumbo Police Station in uninhabitable detaining cells.  Twenty of those detained are women, one of whom is pregnant.
The meeting in question was organized to fill vacant positions in the National Executive Committee (NEXCO)   and to organise a memorial mass at the St. Theresa Catholic Cathedral in Kumbo to honor Southern Cameroons activists who have dedicated their lives and work to the restoration and sovereignty of the Southern Cameroons nation.
The Southern Cameroons National Council has made it their mission to bring autonomy to the Southern Cameroons nation and seek restitution for the ongoing persecution at the hands of the Cameroonian central government. Exactions by the State against the SCNC are numerous and recurrent, and often result in indefinite detention periods and postponed court hearings.
Currently, the National Secretariat of the SCNC has obtained the names of eight detained Southern Cameroons activists, not including Mr. Nfor Nfor.
1)    Ntungia Michael, SCNC Northern Zone Chairman.
2)    Tita Joseph, SCNC National Chairman Treasurer
3)    Amdou Ndam
4)    Priscilia Khan
5)    Divine Dzekem
6)    Pascaline Kinyuy Ndi
7)    Steven Mounyo
8)    Vivian Tangwa

The SCNC has condemned this arrest and called on the international community to:
1)    Amass diplomatic pressure on the Yaounde annexationist regime to unconditionally release the detained SCNC activists, including SCNC leader Nfor Ngala Nfor.
2)    Calls on the Republic of Cameroon to respect the rights of Southern Cameroonians to freedom of assembly and to self-determination.

The UNPO echoes the sentiments of the SCNC and equally condemns the blatant disregard of human rights in the Southern Cameroons by authorities in the Republic of Cameroon. We call on the international community to shed light on the injustices suffered by the Southern Cameroons people. The UNPO also urges authorities of the Republic of Cameroon to immediately halt further persecution of the Southern Cameroons community.
