Paul Biya and his men were recently taken aback when Paris based French language international news magazine Jeune Afrique put its foot down at the ongoing political blunders in Cameroon to insist that Biya should step aside. When a committee of CPDM media experts including those of the Diaspora such as Cameroun info.net went to work recently to map out ways of challenging the authoritative news magazine, the CPDM gang was caught napping with no position to state to the Cameroon people.

What did Jeune Afrique say? After 30 years in power Biya still cannot provide answers to a worrying cocktail of unemployed and helpless youth, life expectancy is lower than the Ahidjo days, an ageing Francophone Beti-Ewondo ruling political class extremely lacking in administrative finesse and a majority of the Cameroonian people living far below UN poverty line.  The Editor-in-Chief Bechi Ben Yahmed has revealed that the Biya family has amassed wealth for even unborn children. Yet, some Cameroonians want us to believe that these are not objective analysis of the prevailing situation of the country.

Biya and his ill equipped media team have openly attacked Jeune Afrique and its editor claiming the paper is now hostile because President Biya no longer waters billions of Fcfa to French based media outlets. They even told the world that President Biya refused paying 350 million Fcfa to a Portuguese mercenary Jose Alberto Fernandez- the man Jeune Afrique had named as having participated in the abduction of former Cameroon coup leader Guerandi Mbara. For the first time ever, the Cameroonian people now know that the Biya regime and Jeune Afrique had an agreement whereby the Cameroon government pays 629 million Fcfa to Jeune Afrique on a monthly basis to project the image of the head of state in France. The Biya propaganda machinery is proud to tell the Cameroonian people that the presidency has not honoured the arrangement for the last 4 years.

These are revelations that the Francophone Beti-Ewondo government wants the Cameroonian people to take lying down!!! Some have even suggested that it is because of the refusal by President Biya to pay Jeune Afrique that prompted the paper to adopt a hostile attitude towards the president and his family. There is really nothing to write home!! Let Ahidjo come and see the damage he has done to the people of Cameroon by given us a monstrous liability of a president call Mr Biya.

Boko Haram and other security issues dominated the opening of the second bi-annual conference of governors involving this time around the Minister Delegate at the Presidency in charge of Defence Edgar Alain Mebe Ngo’o today in Yaounde.  Under the theme "security and socio-economic challenges” the conference grouping all ten Governors  of the republic started with various security presentations from Ministers Rene Emmanuel Sadi, Minister of Territorial Administration and Decentralisation, Emmanuel Nganou Djoumessi of Economy and Regional Planning and Martin Mbarga Nguele, Delegate General for National Security.

 The security meeting that will last three days is intended to improve co-ordination on intelligence gathering against the Nigerian Islamic sect, Boko Haram and above all, to brief the Governors on the implementation of the new anti terrorism law. Cameroon Concord gathered that the regional heads will also be given a guide to the three year emergency plan launched by the Cameroonian dictator President Paul Biya. Minister Rene Sadi praised the Governors for the current state of policing in the country and hinted that there was an urgent need to increase surveillance during this festive period. The Cameroon security chiefs also noted the rise of attacks in the East Region coming from the Anti Balaka Seleka group in the Central African Republic.

We of this publication stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the men and women working tirelessly to keep the homeland safe.

The new anti terrorism law recently passed in Cameroon seems to be changing the strategy of the Nigerian Islamic sect, Boko Haram with 7 captured Boko Haram terrorists claiming to be “simply armed robbers”. The Boko Haram militants were arrested by Cameroon defence forces at Ouli in the district of Mbotoro in the East Region.

The militants were caught with heavy military hardware alongside documentation bearing directives on how to seized the Divisional Officer for Ouli and take him hostage. Cameroon Concord learnt that upon interrogation the militants revealed that they were armed robbers and not members of the Boko Haram terrorist group. Ouli is the capital of Mbotoro district bordering the Central African Republic.

Three soldiers of the Rapid Intervention Force were killed early this morning in the Far North Region of Cameroon by militants of the Nigerian Islamic sect, Boko Haram. Information that filtered from the military says the soldiers were patrolling from Zelevet to Mora when their vehicle exploded from a mine widely believed to have been planted by Boko Haram.

Cameroon Concord is aware that two soldiers were seriously injured and three others missing reportedly taken hostage by Boko Haram. Our informant in Maroua hinted a few hours ago that the Cameroon military is not getting the desired cooperation from the inhabitants of the Far North region in areas such as intelligence gathering and non state policing.
