The first declared candidate in the presidential elections of 2011 comments on the riots that inflame Cameroon. He welcomed the trade union action has been taken from the most beautiful way in his country. The native of Ebolowa calls for the emergence of a true leader in opposition. It also proposes the dissolution of the oil company SONARA.
Enoh Meyomesse you is it possible to give your views on the current socio-political situation of Cameroon in drafting camer.be? course. First, we followed with great grief, the speech of Paul Biya. As usual, he displays a very large share of its sufficiency, the other of his profound contempt of Cameroonians. I will not say more.
How do you like this happens in your country? We we have noted with satisfaction that the unions have finally come back to life in Cameroon. It is these that led from end to end things. Where were our major traditional political leaders? All, if you do not know, have received large sums of money or to return their jackets and support the plan or when to say nothing, or else pretend to be with the strikers, but without . I think you're aware of the amounts: 10 million CFA francs for the former minister who broke the ears to Cameroonians, throughout the weekend. To us, it was suggested that half, so that we would also hold a press conference alongside Issa Tchiroma. What we have, quite naturally, refused to do. Tonye Bakot''If there had not been''
What do you know the position of other leaders including the opposition?
Even the noisiest political leaders residing in Douala, and give each the impression of being ready to set fire to Cameroon, Paul Biya of the power, have received money.
You want to say clearly that they are corrupt? If so by whom? One, currently deputy, once his jacket pocket, took the plane and take it easy at the moment, France. Are not you surprised that he should say nothing? We must remember that it is always the way things happen. Remember the money that had been distributed in December 2006 by the Prime Minister, to all those he had received in consultation, concerning ELECAM.
Can you tell us more? Only Bishop Tonyé Bakot, Archbishop of Yaounde, had questioned about why the envelope of a sum of three million francs which had been shed. Answer: "... it is for your fuel." And he continued: "the cathedral here at the Prime Ministry, not even one mile, three million of fuel!! "
In contrast, all the party leaders that there is no need to cite names, and never miss an opportunity to denounce" the regime of Paul Biya's corrupt to the core "had stitched their mouths. No one had complained this time. If Tonye Bakot had not been there, Cameroonians would have known nothing at all of these sordid bargains.
Back to the news. What is behind the current explosion of violence in your opinion? We can only we insurrection before the high cost of living in Cameroon. Should we remember that a liter of gasoline costs, in Nigeria, which produces oil as we, 241 francs, Gabon, another oil producer, 341 francs, Equatorial Guinea, a country also produces oil, 310 francs, and that, in Benin, a non-producing oil, 400 CFA francs? We, in Cameroon, we find ourselves 600 francs le litre, et, bien mieux, Talba Malla, le DG la Caisse de Stabilisation des Prix des Hydrocarbures nous fait savoir que l’Etat nous fait même une extrême faveur en ne fixant le prix de litre qu’à ce montant-là, car le véritable prix qu’il devrait faire payer aux Camerounais est de …700 francs cfa !!! N’est-ce pas scandaleux ? Chose encore plus choquante, Paul Biya a profité de l’euphorie des Camerounais à la suite de la victoire de notre équipe nationale en demi-finale de la C.A.N. pour augmenter, en catimini, de 16 francs, le prix du litre d’essence. Comment qualifier un tel comportement ? Et lorsque les choses se mettent à chauffer, il n’est longer there to defend his decision ...
How can we solve the oil crisis in Cameroon? From our perspective, if the sonar can give us, for our local consumption of cheaper oil, we are in favor of closure. It would be preferable to proceed as Benin, which, although not producing oil, markets its gasoline to 400 CFA francs at the pump. The oil we produce, would be for export only, to save us money. But there are better, Ahmadou Ahidjo who sold the basement of Cameroon to France on December 30, 1958, should, above all, repeal these agreements, real unequal treaties, which he had signed for the sole purpose of being chartered by the French government, as future president of Cameroon, two years later. This will allow us, for example, to become, finally, a member of OPEC.
What is your analysis on the current crisis in a comprehensive manner? Regarding the riot itself, our view is this: the people of Cameroon has finally woken up after the dismal failure of dead cities in 1991. In this time, we were those who condemned, firmly, this adventure, for the simple reason that we should not initiate a revolution without ensuring that the drive to completion. Otherwise, the cons-revolution that will follow, will be terrible. That's what we experienced after the failure, yet predictable, dead cities. The initiators of this mistake, had no means of paralyzing the city of Yaounde. Consequently, they had no chance to succeed. After this resounding defeat, Cameroonians no longer believed in the virtues of the insurgency, and the regime of Paul Biya has instead found enhanced.
You mean the approach of the current generation of protesters is to review and correct? Fortunately, today we are dealing with a new generation of Cameroon, who have not experienced that time. Therefore, the fight seems to take. But there is again a major problem. Nowhere in the world, a spontaneous uprising has toppled a regime. Renowned authors, following the example of Germany's Rosa Luxemburg, in the 20's, have written extensively on this subject. For an insurgency triomphe, il faut, absolument, un parti d’avant-garde qui conduise cette dernière. Or, malheureusement, dans le Cameroun d’aujourd’hui, nous sommes loin d’en disposer. En conséquence, il y a fort à parier que la révolte actuelle finira par s’estomper, même si elle dure plusieurs jours, voire plusieurs semaines.
Le chef de l’Etat prévient en effet que l’ordre régnera et que la paix sera rétablie
Quoi qu’il en soit, le président de la République est dans de sales draps. Il vient de découvrir que sa « large majorité » à l’assemblée nationale, it does not guarantee a peaceful revision of the constitution so he can stay in power forever. Population, obviously, is awaiting a spark to ignite. The surprise increase in fuel prices has been one. We see, now, his reaction. Never since independence in 1960, that is to say 48 years ago, a strike has been such a general acceptance. Never. It's very bad sign for the president. Worse, he declined. He eventually make a slight decrease in the fixed price. In other words, the people gave him to one knee. It's terrible for him, "Mr. sufficiency." Currently, he is stuck. He can not, again, even in six months or a year, adding a penny more on the price of fuel, without the people not back down in the street. This is not everything, it can not even raise any other price, without the public from going down the street. Similarly, it dares to continue to change its constitution, the people again will be in the street. The situation is even more critical to him that even the Beti, which had been constituted, so far, the political structure of his regime, broke in Yaounde, all social movements, have, this time it dropped. Now, the capital of Cameroon is able to be paralyzed. It can no longer show off in these terms: "when breathing Yaounde, Cameroon lives."
