Fighting Corruption: French Senator wants Biya to release Barrister Lydienne Eyoum

Cameroon Concord has been reliably informed that French Senator, Jean Yves Leconte who recently visited the Kondengui central prison in Yaounde met with Barrister Lydienne Eyoum. Our Yaounde city reporter who contributed to this report revealed the French government was lobbying Etoudi to grant a presidential pardon to the disgraced Franco-Çameroonian advocate.

Barrister Lydienne Eyoum, accused of complicity in embezzlement and misappropriation of public funds by coercion at the expense of the liquidation of the former ONCPB was sentenced to 25 years in prison by the Special Criminal Court.
