Anglophone Crisis: Marafa Ahmidou Yaya in a French speaking tabloid calls for a way forward

Marafa Ahmidou Yaya in a French speaking tabloid called for an alternation as the way forward in resolving this present sociopolitical impasse in Cameroon. Marafa Ahmidou Yaya, the one time second in command to Paul Biya, openly calls for alternating format of governance, so that the nation can appreciate an immense electoral year.

The former Minister of State for Territorial Administration and Decentralization called upon his compatriots to seize this golden opportunity offered by this year's Presidential elections. " I am inviting you on the contrary to have this opportunity and chance. The chance to make 2018, an important year for Cameroon. 

An important year after many decades of wasted immobility and denouncements. It shouldn't be a year for the settlement of scores with the present regime. On the contrary, let us systematically put aside all democratic alternatives. It shall be a new era and a remarkable occasion for our Country" as written by Marafa Ahmidou Yaya on a French tabloid published on Thursday. Marafa Ahmidou Yaya the architect of the ugly system as the former Secretary General at the Presidency of the Republic of Cameroon.

The architect of the system condemns in very unequivocal terms the present sociopolitical climate in the North West and South West Regions of Cameroon since a year ago. Marafa Ahmidou Yaya equally regrets the trend of corruption that presently is so common in Cameroon.

It's regrettable that Cameroon now has an poverty rate that affects close to eight million Cameroonians.Of equal worry is the 50% unemployment rate in a country so abundantly blessed with human capital and natural resources. For recalculation, Marafa Ahmidou Yaya, a former dignitary of the present regime, was arrested in April 2012 and subsequently judged in September of the same year. He was slammed a twenty years imprisonment term at the Secretariat of State Defence, the headquarters of the Gendarmerie.
