A delegation of French senators have met in Cameroon to discuss the infamous embezzlement case of Franco-Cameroonians, Lydienne Eyoum and Emmanuel Foumbi.

During a press conference given recently, Jean-Yves Leconte, Senator from France said: "We had a working meeting with the Minister in charge of justice, and we talked on the Lydienne Eyoum and Emmanuel Foumbi affair."

At the end of a mission to Cameroon last week, the parliamentarian committed to issues of the French in the Diaspora and met with Cameroonian authorities to defend the cause of his compatriots detained in Cameroon in illegal conditions.

"I have not had the opportunity to meet Mr. Foumbi, but I have a pretty clear idea of his location. He is sick, half paralyzed and is unable to defend himself. It is desirable that he goes to seek treatment in France,” argues the Senator.

“The technical plateau is inadequate to cure him. As time passes he is being killed, “supports Me Marc Ndzouba, president of the Cameroonian Committee of support for Michel Thierry Atangana and member of Sos racism.

"He has one side paralyzed," he indicates. Before turning against the enemies of his client, cursing those who have "programmed the death of this citizen."

He added: "People cannot have their problems in France, and instead of following the procedures out there, they choose to abandon the procedure there to come to Cameroon and into engage another because," he denounced.

After having neglected this case, everyone found guilty of embezzlement of public funds in complicity with Polycarpe Abah Abah, the former Minister of finance, are assured France is now more determined than ever to seize the bull by the horns, for the defence of the interests of its citizens.

"I'm parliamentary, I represent the French from abroad. All these cases concern France at the highest level,” informed Jean-Yves Leconte. “The Cameroonian authorities have written to the Ambassador of France in Cameroon concerning the case of Foumbi.

"There is also the case of Lydienne Eyoum, which has not been abandoned by France. We have discussed with the Minister of Justice and reference was made to the case of Michel Thierry Atangana, who regained freedom after 20 years of deprivation of freedom. French justice is working on the file and the victims want reparations for the harm it has caused them.”
