Unveiling Scandal: Billion CFA Franc Theft and Abductions Rock Yaoundé

At first, attempts were made to dismiss the claims, with those close to Mvondo Ayolo attempting to manipulate public opinion by labeling the allegations as fake. However, investigations reveal that this is a well-founded story that has caught the attention of NGOs, including the Mandela Center headed by the prominet lawyer Akere Muna, which has taken up the matter.

In the coming days, Mvondo Ayolo is expected to face prosecution for charges ranging from money laundering to kidnapping and torture.{loadmoduleid 378}

A new twist in the case emerged as Mete'e Marie-Joseph, a former employee of the DCC suspected of stealing a billion from his ex-boss, resurfaced. Currently under intensive care in a local hospital, Mete'e Marie-Joseph revealed a harrowing tale of being held captive in a room by Mvondo Ayolo's brothers-in-law, both military and civilian. He endured daily beatings since his abduction on December 9.

Seizing an opportunity during his captors' absence, Mete'e Marie-Joseph broke free and sought refuge with a Colonel in Semil, who provided him with 1000 CFA francs for taxi fare. He then went to his uncle in Yaoundé, who later took him to another city for safety and medical attention.

According to Mete'e Marie-Joseph, the individuals responsible for his torture are identified as Mbang Rodrigue, a military adjutant and member of Mvondo Ayolo's wife, and Martin Odo'o, a major constable.

The locations of the reported torture include Monté Ane Rouge hypogrome, Tradex Emana, Nkolbisson, and Mballa 2 chiefdom. Disturbingly, Mete'e Marie-Joseph urges authorities to search Mvondo Ayolo's homes, citing substantial amounts of money believed to be hidden in banks. This detail is emphasized as a matter of utmost seriousness.

Despite the gravity of the situation, media outlets, including Canal 2, online press, and written press, have curiously remained silent. Mete'e Marie-Joseph calls on civil society actors to mobilize and shed light on this disturbing story.

As the case unfolds, the scandal surrounding Samuel Mvondo Ayolo raises questions about accountability and justice, urging the public and authorities to act swiftly in the pursuit of truth.{loadmoduleid 377}
