"There is a cacophony at the level of Government communication and this maintains on all subjects. "For months we say Boko Haram is leading incursions in the North of the country, which today opens a war front in the Eastern Cameroon, and an confrontation between different factions in power in Cameroon to either paralyze the central State by preventing any cabinet reshuffle or to continue to empty state coffers,"
It is no longer a secret that Cameroon by paying ransoms to free hostages have funded pro-government groups who today want to destabilize the country and its institutions, putting thousands of Cameroonians in the street, depriving them of their daily activities.
These are the same groups that led the president of the Republic to declare war on the Boko Haram Al Nebula in Paris, which today and many can recognize as absurd and dangerous but respond to a specific Schedule. Their objective is achieved, weapons are circulating in Yaounde, Douala, and they increased outbreaks of terrorism within the national territory.
The Government of Cameroon in its attempt of manipulation of public opinion, calls people to play the role of the police, that role has never been explained to the population. President Biya is increasingly a man alone, who goes where he wouldn't go, doing what he wouldn't do, unfortunately there is no compensation for the people who are toiling under material and moral poverty.
Some members of the Nation must be stripped of their immunity so that they can be explained, some mayors, some delegates of the Government appointed by the President of the Republic, some Ministers must explain their activities especially in Cameroon and abroad.
It is important to ask ourselves what we would be a war against Boko Haram built from scratch if at the end we are more alive to enjoy a hypothetical victory. It is time to realize that since 50 years in our country, successive Governments have built too many walls and not enough for bridges the people.
