According to the Universal Mediator and President of the Independent Commission Against Corruption and Discrimination (COMICODI), there is no room for tribalism or personal favors in the current state of affairs. Only the eternal interests of Cameroun must prevail.
A CRITICAL CHALLENGE FOR THE NATION, THE STATE, AND THE REPUBLIC
There is no such thing as an untouchable citizen in our country. Before considering any government reshuffle or the appointment of a vice-president, a rigorous cleaning of the political landscape is required. The corruption is deep-rooted, and the public demands substantial change and accountability.
The fundamental question we must address is whether we want a superficial fix using the same toxic actors and old habits, or if we truly aim to build strong, pragmatic institutions led by individuals of integrity, patriotism, and loyalty.
Perhaps no other leader has been confronted with such a dangerous and inextricable situation as Paul Biya faces today. Having started his tenure with honest promises, the President cannot be held solely responsible for the nation’s current struggles. Over four decades, he has shown extraordinary patience and tolerance in the face of blatant betrayals by his closest associates.
Managing this crisis is not as simple as flipping a switch or rotating a few officials. To believe so is to misunderstand the complexity of the elite in Cameroun. It is becoming clear that the President’s strategy is rooted in long-term patience and sacrifice. Time will eventually reveal who is fit to lead and meet the urgent expectations of our future.
The scale of the cleanup required is immense. Consider the audacity of a newly appointed board chair who immediately requests over one hundred million to renovate a private residence. This illustrates the gravity of the moment. The President is carefully reflecting on how to proceed without destabilizing the very foundations of the state.
The traitors within have been exposed. There will be no immunity for those involved in toxic networks and influence peddling that have harmed the nation. We must allow the President to manage these disappointments and catch his breath, as he is navigating a delicate destiny that will impact generations to come.
In this logic, there is no village, no tribe, and no clan. There is only Cameroun, and there will only be Cameroun forever. Claims that time is running out are irresponsible; the destiny of a nation is built through sustained sacrifice and unthinkable patience. This is an existential issue for the Republic, and the final outcome will speak for itself.
