Paul Biya; Foreign Cameroonian President or Cameroon's Foreign President?
Paul Biya, the 83 years old man who has spent 34 of these years at the helm of Cameroon, signed a decree Thursday,29 September 2016. This presidential decree is coming in from a foreign country other than his presidential palace, barely a few days after the end of the 71st general assembly of the U.N.O. which was his official pretext to leave the country.
It should be noted that he is more at ease out of Cameroon where he prefers to ruminate in total tranquillity after hastily masticating our local first grade hay to his fill. As opposed to other Heads of State who left New York for their various countries immediately after the summit, our 'king' is still out of the country.
In his charismatic governance from "Geneva-Switzerland" where he has made it his domicile of choice, the Head of State has signed a decree appointing David Koulbout Aman as senior divisional officer for the Dja and Lobo Division, South Region, where the president hails from.
The new S.D.O. replaces Bernard Marie Mba who has been relieved from his duties . The official reasons for the sack were not released. Nevertheless , information gathered from judicial sources by KOACI reveal that the sacked S.D.O. is involved in a financial scandal linked to compensation of locals around the Mekin Dam.
The scandal has taken a strange twist and is now a matter of high import to the State. It involves top state officials whose names have been littered everywhere in local media organs. Sources say the S.D.O. could be charged for his involvement in this matter in the days ahead.
It should also be noted that there is tension between the infamous S.D.O. and the Mayor of Sangmelima who happens to be a nephew to our Head of State. Observant people have also remarked that this is not the first time the president of the Republic is signing a decree of such magnitude from abroad.
In his book titled, " The Secretary General of the Republic of Cameroon; Between Myths, Texts and Realities" , Jean Marie Atangana Mebara, a former Secretary General at the presidency of the Republic of Cameroon who is today behind bars at the Kondengui central prison for embezzling public funds, writes that the President of the Republic is often compelled to fly out alongside senior state officials and very close collaborators when he so wishes to get their points of view on certain hot state issues.
The question whose answer is blowing in the wind is that; must very important issues only be discussed out of Cameroon ?
