The alert was issued by the International Crisis Group. The NGO is producing a report on the risks in the socio-political context of Cameroon

0:47 less than two months before the presidential election. That's the summary. Once again, good evening to all ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for welcoming us to your home of religion at the opening of this newspaper.

The presidential election of October 12, 2025 is on the agenda for the celebration of the Feast of the Assumption at the Notre-Dame des Victoires Cathedral in Yaoundé. In order to prevent the country from falling into chaos. Monsignor Jean Baga invites the faithful to place their trust in Mary, Mother of God, model of peace and unity. It is a special grace that at the time when the election campaigns are about to begin , we have the feast of the Assumption to celebrate. We pray a lot invoking the name of Mary. We know that she is the patron saint of our country. I remain with you in a

2:20 fullness of serenity that Cameroonians will know how to prevail the best values which are peace, fraternity and above all the continuity of the history of Cameroon. The Holy Virgin Mary is the marine and protector of Cameroon. During the Eucharist, in the presence of Mary's ascension into heaven, the Metropolitan Archbishop of Yaoundé invokes Our Lady of Victories for the victory of peace and social cohesion before, during and after the upcoming election. She stood by the nations who called upon her for peace. She was on the side of the persecuting church and was able to stand up to its adversaries. She is a woman of all struggles and I believe that today for our Cameroonians,

3:06 it is an assurance to know that we are at the right address because she is a woman of victories, our lady of victory. This name was given to her because she is able to give victory to all humanity who call upon her for her power of intercession. Rosaries are distributed during mass. A sheaf of flowers accompanied by candles are placed at the feet of the Virgin Mary. At the Notre-redame des Victoires Cathedral in Yaoundé, the faithful pray and sing, asking the intercession of the Mother of God for peace in Cameroon. As we told you in the headline, the town of Garois en Liè and the

3:51 international airport were stormed this Friday. Isatiroma Bakari makes a resounding return to her northern stronghold . A declared candidate for the presidential election on October 12, the president of the FSNC returns from Yaoundé, refreshed by strategic meetings and a rapidly rising popularity. Between popular fervor and major political issues , it is a welcome worthy of the greatest figures on the national scene. Instead, watch this report by Ubert Michel Camini. Early this Friday afternoon, the area around the Garois international airport is bustling with activity. A dense, visibly excited crowd eagerly awaits the imminent arrival

4:37 of a man whose name is a staple of all political conversations in the region: Isatiroma Bakari. It is a scene from the great popular mobilizations which illustrates the intact orat of the politician in the run-up to a crucial electoral meeting . A triumphant return for the politician, a candidate for the presidential election on October 12. The latter is returning from a stay in Yaoundé, the political capital of the country. His days during which the diplomatic broom he engaged in did not go unnoticed. In particular his meeting with another political leader Bob Bouoba Magari. he is also a presidential candidate with whom the emergence of a possible political alliance of weight is strongly evoked by the national press. This

5:23 weekend, in the capital of the northern region, thousands of supporters wearing the colours of the FSNC chanted for their leader. From the airport to his home. The streets of Garois lived to the rhythm of a rare popular innovation reflecting a political fervor that continues to intensify. And still regarding the 2025 presidential election, the political alliance for change denies any rumors about talks that Professor Maurice Camto would have engaged in with a view to supporting any candidate in Lis for the

6:10 election of October 12. In a press release issued by Jean-Michel Nietu, the APC also denounced a historic forfeiture of which the candidate of this platform of opposition parties was the victim on the part of the members of the Constitutional Council. The MP, however, calls on the people of change to remain standing and not to be discouraged by this forfeiture. I quugo. Neither the Political Alliance for Change nor Maurice Camto have entered into discussions or negotiations with any candidate on the list for the presidential election on October 12. This clarification is contained in a recent statement by the interim national coordinator of the PC. The honorable Jean-Michel Ni debunks all rumors on the subject and specifies in the

6:56 document dated August 14 that the information spread among the public is nothing but trickery and manipulation. The PC, he said, will decide in due course on its position for the rest of the presidential election. Returning to the invalidation of the candidacy of Professor Maurice Camto, APC candidate invested by the magnetemme, the interim coordinator of the APC denounces a historic forure orchestrated by the members of the constitutional council who habitually excluded the candidate Maurice Camto, heavyweight of the Cameroonian opposition from the cause for the supreme magistracy, betraying at the same time the confidence of the Cameroonian people. Faced with this flagrant injustice, according to the themes of the press release, Jean-Michel Niieu calls on activists and supporters of the political parties that are members of the PC not to give in to discouragement.

7:44 This statement comes two months before the presidential election and especially at a time when all eyes are on Professor Maurice Camto, eager to know which of the candidates he will support if he ultimately abstains. 2025 Presidential Election: International Crisis Group Warns of Risk of Unrest According to the NGO, the lockdown of electoral institutions, the lack of transparency in the succession of Paul Bya, the rise of tensions in the English-speaking regions and the far north pose a high risk of post-election protests and violence. His strong gesture of appeasement and dialogue. The election could destabilize Cameroon, the NGO said. The point of this outing with Emazum Matida Osomba Gladis of the

8:31 Bambbadian presidential 2025 in Cameroon International Crisis Group fears that this election of October 12 will turn into a catalyst of instability. The NGO points to a combination of explosive factors, including a political lockdown of electoral institutions controlled by the government, the absence of reform since 2018, a repressed opposition and a muzzled civil society, security tensions, separatist threats in the English-speaking regions, jihadist attacks in the far north, and massive population displacement in a socio-political climate. The

9:16 International Crisis Group also discusses what it calls a frustrated youth and a society in which hate speech is on the rise. She therefore fears possible violence if the results are deemed not credible. According to this NGO, without a strong gesture of appeasement and transparency, the election could plunge the country into a major political and security crisis . Let us now discuss this raid in the economic capital of Cameroon. Six individuals suspected of committing burglaries and robberies have just been arrested by the anti-crime squad of the regional delegation of the judicial police. This group mainly targeted supermarket stores but also

10:01 money transfer agencies in Douala and its surrounding areas. More details in this report by Claudia Innocent BGA. An automatic pistol, a nail puller, a hammer, among other things. It was with this arsenal that this so-called Bracker was screwed into the city of Douala. Specializing in robberies and robberies, he has just been arrested in connection with an operation carried out by the anti-crime brigade of the DRPJ littoral. Following multiple burglaries in the city of Douala, an operation was organized under the coordination of the regional delegate of the national

10:47 coastal society. It allowed us to arrest six individuals who were members of an organized criminal group specializing in burglaries and robberies. We were able to record five burglaries to their credit, including a microfinance institution, a bank, three local shops, as well as several cases of robberies carried out on Motxi drivers. Among the victims was a business operator who wished to remain anonymous. We are already really satisfied with the work carried out by the Cameroonian police. It happened in the early morning of July 17th and we were informed about it by one of our security guards who alerted us. We immediately went to the agency and also called the gold security forces

11:32 . Each time, the alleged offender left with an important goal: clothing, a laptop, vehicles, a safe and various valuables. The arrest of these individuals allowed us to get our hands on an automatic pistol with three 9 mm caliber rounds, a strong and well-bulged chest and their work equipment consisting of snatch grinders and other effects. They will be brought before the competent authorities to answer for their actions. And in the West Cameroon region, the regional delegation of the judicial police has just put an end to the escape of a suspected criminal who is

12:17 terrorizing the Noun department and its surrounding areas. The project for their track was planned and put into action after a couple was robbed of a large sum of money. More details in this report by Vivien Tonfac and Robert Kenny. Gérard Peppuna, 30, and Maman Mou, 37, are anything but choirboys. These two individuals are presented by the regional division of the judicial police of the West as dangerous bandits who sowed terror in the department of Noun and its surroundings. Their latest crime is said to have been committed against a couple in the town of Fumbot who fell into the outlaws' trap while returning home. After controlling the couple, the law

13:03 dispossessed them of the sum of 530,000 CFA francs, three iPhone phones and 8 Android phones. As if that were not enough, they kidnapped the couple's wife and a baby, as well as the vehicle in which their target was traveling. So, as a result, we immediately infiltrated our criminal networks. This infiltration allows the close associates of the judicial police to identify the traces of these criminals and to immediately engage their plot. The meg it did not occur to us that one of the senator's malf was to go to the city of Douala to sell the vehicle in question and the goal in a real manhunt he will refuse to surrender and he will go to hit a parked truck where he will find death. In the stolen vehicle that this suspect was driving, a pistol, ammunition, several SIM cards, a

13:50 balaclava and many other tools used for the dirty work were found. But the elements of the regional division of the judicial police of the West do not give up their determination to dismantle the gang. research we will locate the rest of the gang members in the localities of Fessan and Moni located in the district of Fundot. A raid organized on the morning of August 1, 2025 will allow us to arrest them and seize homemade weapons, including a machete and the words they use to carry out their robbery. The two suspects arrested, all former inmates of the Bafousam central prison and the Douala central prison, were brought before the government commissioner at the Bafousam military court.

14:36 She is the very first woman to lead the district of Onaco in the department of [ __ ] Verclin et Paul and has just been installed in her functions by Yve Bertran Noël Diana, the prefect of [ __ ]. The people hope that her maternal sense will bring speed to the development process of this locality. And in Mengan in the central region, the new sub-prefect installed has been instructed to ensure the maintenance of public order. Further details in this report by Gaston Masso, Carlos Minouet, Isabelle Carosoupette. This is a first for the town of Lonaco, in the Bongo department, to welcome a woman to head this commune. Mrs. Épaulewan Verclin is the new sub-prefect of

15:21 onaco. A role that rhymes with hard work to save these populations who are in the doldrums. There are no boreholes, so people are forced to drink water any way they can. It's the problem with the roads to get here, it's really hard to do it in this rainy season, the roads are completely cut off. The real problem is to continue to give us the opportunity to live together in the Lonaco. To these difficulties, the mother of the ONACO added and urged the new sub-prefect to work together hand in hand to accelerate the development process. here the promotion of hygiene hello the promotion of activities generating the empowerment of youth subject to all kinds of desires the

16:09 sustainability of peace and social cooking these are, madam, the challenges that belong to us together to meet the populations also invited to collaborate to carry out this mission of ensuring the maintenance of order to ensure that we have a good conduct of the elections which are coming to encourage development and social cohesion. So we cannot do this without the collaboration of the people. This is her first assignment outside the Southwest region where she held positions of responsibility for many years . Far away, in the Mengang district, Union and FouMu department, the new sub-prefect Niaso Moramad was also officially installed. A ceremony presided over by

16:56 the prefect of this department, whom he instructed to make maintaining public order his priority. End of the first part of this journal. The second is dedicated to major reporting. More on that in a moment. In our series Cameroon as it is tonight, our reporter Dani Warenz Cing Ding decided to extend their stay in the town of Malimbas in the Sanaga Maritime department. Their incursion reveals many problems that have plagued the lives of residents of this Palestinian state, which has been without water and energy for years. Look earlier. Life in Malimba meanwhile continues

17:41 its course, caressed by the waves. In the small town of Malimba, life goes on to the rhythm of the wave but also to the rhythm of the power cut. The problem of water supply, electricity and even access to this locality remains a pressing issue facing the population. But also the question of health. As you can see, Malimba, like many other localities in the Sanaga Maritime department, are today largely forgotten by history. And we will soon realize this. We have been living here for 48 hours. We had the opportunity to meet people. Today, we find our

18:26 faithful grandmother Bénanet in her kitchen. She has lived here her whole life. It'll be OK. And as far as he can remember, his village has been without power for a long time . We don't have the light. It's been 4 years since we had light. But still, there are the poles installed. There are the poles. We were given the poles but we didn't send the light. We don't know what's going on. How do you manage here without light? We have what

19:12 we call sun plates. Yes, we have the sun plates. We work with sun plates. The others have the groups. 4 years in the dark, a real nightmare. As we walk through the village, the images are striking. Poles transformed into flower pots, electrical cables lying on the ground and others that today serve as washing lines. However, there is no shortage of counters here . We arrive in front of Giselle's house . It's the same reflex every day. Check the charge status of your solar panel lamps. She, like many inhabitants of Malimba, seems resigned.

19:59 How come you have poles and cables everywhere but not deè? Well, that's not at my level. For the moment we live as you see, there are poles, there is no light. We live as you see. We make do. You can only see the people at the top when there are elections. After that, we are left to our own devices. Abandoned to themselves. Before leaving Giselle, she makes some revelations that send shivers down our spines. There is no water in front of the Sanaga water. We find it very hard to believe. However, we will be forced to note this when we meet Catherine Siliki again. Armed with her jump and

20:45 her crutch, despite her handicap, she is forced to go several hundred meters further to the river bank to find water. Here is the the the tap there. It doesn't flow. The water is not flowing. It's been maybe 4 years today since it leaked. We drink the water from the sad which gives us the diare. What does the mayor tell you when you talk to him about the water situation? No, we're still waiting. They say they 'll fix it, they'll fix it. Doesn't help. There you are, you saw how the earth was poured on the road. There's no way to get through. Back in the village, she explains to us

21:31 that look at me with my condition, I don't have then look at the edge distance. arriving here, eh, it's really very bad, a state, a [ __ ] is starting to get rid of it to go and dig up water. It's really very bad, it's very bad for me. Between the lack of energy and water, the deputy mayor of the district of Moanco, including Malimba, seems evasive. Is the city hall doing anything to resolve the electricity issue? Yes, precisely, we are in the process of we are in the process of because we had a solar power plant here. We are currently thinking about this issue with Aer. It's true that for the moment we are focusing on truly isolated areas.

22:17 Malimba is landlocked and deprived of everything, as if forgotten by the rest of the country. A report in this edition of the 8 p.m. news.

27:41 UCB House of Flavors speaks to you. Quality back to school. Prepare for your return to school without stress. It is with this public report that we end this edition of the 8 p.m. news. Thank you for following this ladies and gentlemen. Don't miss the second part of K soir, it's coming up in a short while with Serge Allan Autour and his guests. Good evening Serge. Good evening Julien Bert Bissaï. Unlike the failed incident a few weeks ago, the plane carrying Minister Isa Tiroma Bakari was able to leave Yaoundé Simalen International Airport for Gaua International Airport. The presidential candidate has arrived in the capital of the northern region, his stronghold. This Friday, Serge Allin learned of a negotiation trip to

28:26 Yaoundé for the establishment of an opposition coalition to confront the government. His landing at Garois International Airport mobilized hundreds of supporters and activists from the FST, his political party. As you have mentioned, since his ban on leaving the country, Isatiuma Bakari's popularity rating , it must be remembered, is still on the rise. Sergejala. That's the gist of the evening game. Good evening to you Julien Bert Bisaille. Have a very good evening. See you Monday at 8 p.m. Next up is a set with our guests: Doctor Pudi, Jean-Claude and of course Xavier Bellem. And if the gods of technology are with us, we will finally have Suleiman

29:12 Karamoko from Garwa. Is Suleiman there? Not yet. So. There you go, Jean-Claude, Minister Isatiroma and Agar, you have been able to see the images. A return that is nevertheless expected, eh, by many FSNC activists. I don't know if it's the new activists recruited because he had first made his comeback after his resignation from the government. uh it was passing, I don't know because in reality, I do n't know if from one day to the next suddenly in barely uh 1 month uh he already went crazy and everything because as soon as he resigned from the government, he returned to Garois, everyone said the minister Sa Chin returned to Garwa, there was no one to welcome him. Well, today, uh, he came back, we do

29:58 n't even know the results of these different consultations because in fact, what did he gain from his... you want to know the results? Well, I do n't know. So I wonder what the point is, and on top of that, were the voters who were at the airport to welcome him? I don't know. I saw two or three people wearing a loincloth that we wanted to say but not all of them can wear the loincloth like in the RDPC so that we know directly that they are RDPC activists. Well, uh, there too, that's something else to be able to say that you saw two people, two or three people who were in FC loincloths, so the rest are not activists. So maybe it's sympathetic. OK. Uh P who acts as an activist but we can distinguish the B does not act at all but we distinguish the MO by the B. It is an

30:44 important activist of the RDPC on board the PAN of the RDPC. I made trays here uh maybe out or outings no the campaign office has not yet started but be sure you know very well that we will be dressed uh in the outfit uh uh of the candidate of the Cameroonian People's Democratic Rally and we will share uh all our gadgets as we know how to do with all the fellow citizens of the Republic. But to come back to something much more seriously, uh I think that there is more I followed there uh at the closing of the newspaper where the journalist Juliette Mc Bissal said that her popularity rating was rising. I don't know if this is an

31:31 opinion poll. OK. THANKS. THANKS. We already have it for you. It didn't go up. Suleimman is already here. Good evening Suleiman Karamo. Good evening Alainou. Good evening to your panelists. Good evening also to all the millions of viewers of Quinox Television. It's always a pleasure to meet you on the Ekinox television stainless steel set. Here is Suleiman, I'm staying with you. Two images. He mentioned the RDPC communicator on this set. When Minister Tiloma resigned, he left the John Gouté government and arrived at Gois International Airport. There is

32:17 no mobilization like we saw today. How is it organized? How were the two arrivals of Minister Tiroma Agaro organized? Why is there such a crowd today? What happened? Uh you know uh Minister Isatiroma Batari today represents uh uh hope, an alternative, an alternative for Cameroonians and uh that uh his coming is uh it must be remembered that it is a private visit whether it is the first time he was in Garois as well as uh the one today where uh the first time uh we did not have the information for the second time, there was the information circulated a little and the activists

33:03 therefore got involved. It was not a mobilization that was organized, it was a spontaneous mobilization that the activists decided to reserve this warm welcome to the national president of the FSNC Isatiroma Isatiroma Bakari. It is, uh, and these are activists, sympathizers, Cameroonians, not only from the southern part of Cameroon, but Cameroonians, activists and sympathizers, uh, generally, uh, Cameroonians who came to testify, who came, uh, to present, uh, to show their support for the candidate for the national president of the FSNC. It's not just like some people want to

33:49 make us see some people. You yourself have seen the images, the images are there, the mobilization and detail and above all what must be, what must also be emphasized here, it is not a mobilization that was organized, it is a spontaneous mobilization. It started, uh, uh, with phone calls from certain officials who learned that President Isaturoma was going to Garois for a few days. So they decided to give him that warm welcome. And it should be noted that Serge Allin Auto, we left Garoa International Airport from his residence for a distance of less than 3 km. It took us almost 4 hours. This is to

34:35 signal this human tide here. And this human tide is to send a message. This is to send a message to the national president of the FSNC. message according to according to which he has their support, he has the support uh uh of the Cameroonian people in the Cameroonian people in their entirety uh to carry uh the hope of this of this change which will uh that that uh uh the national president Isairoma Bakari blows to the people to the Cameroonian people. And the Cameroonian people today recognize themselves in him because, you know, he himself defined, he said with him it is the people who are in power. Power therefore returns to the Cameroonian people. Don and and this testify. We haven't

35:21 started the campaign. The election campaign has not yet begun. Here, it's just a message, a message of unconditional support and the hope that these people place above the head of the president of the FSN, Coma Bakari. So, I'm staying with you Sleemmand Karamoko of images. A few days ago we saw Minister Isatomaari visiting, or rather the Minister of State visiting Minister Isatomaari. What do you think they said? And Souleimane, what can explain this interest in what the northern candidates are saying? What is actually happening?

36:09 Uh uh you know, we have we have considered a lot that uh the majority the electorate the electorate of the renewal and then essentially uh uh in its entirety in the part uh in the part of Cameroon where uh these three regions alone account for practically 40% of the electorate of the electorate of Cameroon at least of these uh going uh to that figure. And you know that during the various consultations during the previous presidential elections, these two personalities called for voting for the party in power, but

36:55 today there is a break, there is a break and they understood the message of the people who were asking for a break with the government, with the regime, the Dia regime because today we are not going to go on about everything that is wrong with Cameroon. Today, it is a question of showing that there is a rule and any speech, any organization that goes in this direction has the support of the people of the Cameroonian people in general and in particular that of the 7th century. And this interest, it must be said that some time ago today, no one there was, uh, we had no interest in showing these personalities. But today, so as far as Isairoma Bakari's FSNC is concerned

37:41 , he has made the break, he has made the break. He clearly showed that he had given his position towards the current regime and also towards the Cameroonian people. he took sides with the Cameroonian people and that's why there is this interest that this Cameroonian people arouses behind this personality and today and on Sunday itself you saw these mobilizations testify more to what we are saying and and to uh uh come back again to recently we prevented the the we prevented the President Isatoma from carrying out to carry out to meet the Cameroonians of the diaspora under the pretext that he would have used a

38:27 diplomatic passport and there I therefore bring us these formal steps there the minister the president of the FSNC Isairoma Bakari handed over with his letter of his letter of resignation his service passport he had he had an ordinary passport and that is with which he wanted to carry out this trip there this right that that that he confers the constitution that unfortunately therefore the regime in place prevented him from exercising his right his right his most absolute right and therefore uh and for say the message the most important message the essential message that today all these people there all this population who came who came to the airport it is to testify to it is to testify its loyalty and it is

39:14 also to testify its hope its confidence the confidence that these people place it in uh in the heart in the hands therefore of the candidate of the FNC Isoma Isatoma Bakari. Thank you Suleiman, we will come back to you if time permits. First of all, you have followed Minister Tiroma who is returning to Garoain with a crowd and the explanations, eh, in relation to the ban on leaving the country a few days ago . is a sign that we are thirsty for change and people are hungry for change. But I would think that Cameroonians when they are matching in the streets uh during uh rallies like this they should

40:01 match along with their voters C. Let us know that the population has registered to vote. They have their voters cuts and they are willing uh to change. Um uh minister ex minister Isauma is making waves just like Bell Buba magari and um I think we can see the signs of time that we have stuffed ourselves with change and when a time for change comes the signs are there. It's visible. Uh Minister Isauma is making waves. Buba magari is doing his own best I think if the concess candidate fails, the can

40:51 anglophones. Precisely the boat master Akbobala he asks Bobala wants that there is a candidacy in quotation marks Anglophone that the three come together also Anglophones we have been more than the French section of the country who believe that Cameroonians are one and the two came together in an equal gentleman's agreement. It's but normal that uh uh the anglophones themselves if they unite because it is not the population

41:37 of the anglophones that will give them the vote . It is a concess of a country that wants to stay together that wants to be united together because when Neon Frundi won the election in 1992 it was not the anglophones who voted Nundi. It was a change for the better. It was a union of change that wanted change in this country. And I think we have tested the francophone uh system of governance for so long and it's time enough for us to understand that if we we we should try something new from the the Anglophone region. But the leaders I I I keep saying it if we stay divided if the anglophones cannot agree with other candidates

42:24 from other regions and they cannot agree with themselves then we think that the problem of the opposition is bigger than the problem of Cameroon. So. So. Exactly, uh, Dr. Yamsi, this situation, as I said, has to do with this Anglophone candidacy, in quotation marks, which is also the idea that is being born, it is that we cannot win only with other Cameroonians, but he thinks that we can also start there, that the three are already getting together, no, already the three candidacies, eh, whether

43:17 it is Master Akeremona, whether it is the young AK, whether it is Barissan, we must understand one thing, that the Anglophones are this weak link that has never been very well understood in the political lander for the simple fact that at any time when there is a meeting in good uniform, there is a large mobilization of French speakers who cannot understand the Anglophone part of Cameroon. You see, when we try to look at the level of Cameroonian politics, there are images that are stark. The stick is a seated man, he is a gentleman who can bring but not real political influence on the national territory. When we look at what is happening, what exactly is the paternona being criticized for? We know that in 2018 he was accompanied by a polite party. He returns in 2025 with the same method. Many believe that he should have created his own political apparatus from there. He loves the Yango. In principle, it is not that he could have

44:03 created his own political apparatus. Someone who has been at the sphere and at the great march of the State of Cameroon, is someone who knows international problems. He is someone who has a common understanding of how to properly manage power. Except that Cameroonian politics has this aspect of hypocrisy. It's that the old truths of power, this generation of 40 and 50 who got their legs tangled up are today doing what we call settling scores . these settling of scores where we are ready to say that the elders no longer respond to what they wanted to do, what we call national unity. They are talking about what is called it's my turn, it's our turn. There is no one's turn at the presidency of the Republic. It's not someone's turn . But you yourself, Dr. Poudiez, recently said that it was the

44:48 young people's turn. No, it's not the young people's turn. It is time for this old guard to extend its hand and pole to this youth to make what is called an ascent towards the truth of power. Why do I say this? Yut won't be able to convince me. It is also part of this task to be able to support thinking differently from what these elders did. These elders have nothing more to prove. I give you the fossils of Cameroonian politics and Satioma Bakari what has not yet brought 81 years there is no vision it has been it has been 25 years. He spent 25 years with the Allied party and is responsible for the mismanagement and economic stagnation of this country. He had three ministers, what happened to the Ministry of Transport ? What did Camerco do? He took the call. We still had these capsules when he

45:34 said that President Paul was the best, the best understood, the misunderstood but he is accountable that what did he do with the Ministry of Tourism former Prime Minister to the EP deari are not paradigms for a youth who wants to evolve while we had you are sure that it is only the members of the government who are accountable? I'll tell you, are these members of the government, is it only the members of the government who are accountable? There are only accountants. I'll tell you why. The policy was implemented in such a way as to serve the nation and serve the people. Yes. Since the people are what we call the barometer of what the government does. If the people are suffering, it means that the members of the government have mismanaged the government. And since they handled it badly , why would you want this people to connect another chance?

46:20 Today, people are in the water to make the axis. So, since President Kamto is the most prominent man, we want to woo his electorate and make him a king. Now, we have to look at what we want to do with him? Is this a fact or not? I could not say that it is a fact because in politics and in political science, we had the said and the unsaid and for those who have said, they must be said, for those who have unsaid, the ones must triumph. And for some to triumph, political anchoring, national marriage. But wait, doctor, you seem to forget. Perhaps your last passage here, you said that asking the teacher to do something should be what should be asked. No,

47:05 listen, I'm saying this, he is not a kingmaker, but he is someone who can bring something to Cameroonian politics because a kingmaker, the king is the monarch, the monarch is in the CPDM that we have seen him in 43 years. President Camto does not make kings, he makes what I call potential presidents who can leave after having done a good job like what you saw in Benin with President Talon. So those who say that it is a king's act, no, he does not make a king, he makes a president who after one or two terms will be able to say here I stop, someone else can take over so that the dynamics of the Cameroon house can move forward. What I was saying is that President Kanto is currently the man in a no less controversial situation but who can

47:51 make the north south east west axis and look in a consensual way says that this is the man we are waiting for to make a policy to fight the campaign to fight the campaign and beat the RDPC candidate. Now, there are so-called forces lurking in the man who are pulling Professor Kamto towards Roba, who are pulling Professor Kamto not to react, who are calling on Professor Kamto not to do what the people expect of him. What the people expect from him, but the people expect Professor Kamto to make a final speech and move towards Yes, there is a speech that Professor Kamto is entitled to make. He has to make a speech. He has to make a speech. He has to keep the people by the skin of his teeth and as who he is he is more in the race. No, you know, I'll tell you why you want to bring it back to the Atelien society 400 years before Jesus Christ. You know what? He was

48:36 so important. He had to be kept in the race. But ask Youuth, it was the YouTube comrades at the Constitutional Council who decided to make their former government members what they became. He had a bad Yangango, please. He had a Yangango who had very serious problems . I know you're very gal. All right. It wasn't YouTo's comrades who were bad. He just didn't take a good Yango. So it is high time, it is high time that Professor Camto should be beyond and above the menée to look straight ahead eti and look at the different protagonists who remain on the list and say that this is the ideal combination to win these elections and I think that he is not that is why we summarize this in one word he is the kingmaker.

49:22 No, I don't like the word king very much in politics. No, you didn't like it or not? the term that fits gen kings do not do politics kings do politics the term is kingmaker I I advise you I advise you but in the academy we knew that monarchies of kings are monarchies that often fade because we would have called dictatorships President Kamto can make Cameroon a power of alternation and a power to thwart all the prices on the evening of October 12, 2025 there you go thank you you liked it we said this return of President Tiroma of the FSNC president of the FSNC Agaro different from when he returned after his resignation this popular fervor what is happening we must we must

50:07 first see yeah when he resigned we must put things in perspective when he resigned as minister and now that he is a candidate that is to say that he satisfies at least on his part his base which was who exerted several pressures on no the day Minister Tyoma arrives in Garwa, he is not yet a candidate, he made his exit a few hours after his arrival in Gara for that is what I was not a candidate when he arrived there was a Chiroma who arrived the first time in Garwa as minister of missionaries and but today Tom welcomed Agaro as a candidate for the presidential election so these sympathizers and activists have exercised several prions according to what we had followed through the media he has accomplished them he has he has he has acted like

50:54 them they They were waiting for he became a candidate and it is normal that he is carried in triumph. It is a triumphant return that Equinos have come to reward us with. It's good. And then I would like to clarify to the FCC, I am an FCC activist, the FCC member of the PC. The PC, which is a platform that supported Professor Kamtou's candidacy. Our adversary, we have only one adversary, it is the RDB regime, President Bia. The rest there can be competitors as they can be allies of therefore Isatom today is no longer a minister and besides even ancient history teaches us many things. You know what is called the Buddha. Buddha was a prince, he lived in a festive palace. The day he went out, he saw people lamenting, he was surprised that

51:41 human beings could suffer like this. And he decided to join them in what he was suffering. Yet he was he was naturally born with a golden arse . So he decided to make the choice to live in poverty and to work towards bringing happiness to all the citizens of his country. So this is the story of Buddha. So I and then the most important thing for us is the objective. What is the objective? The goal is to drive Mr. B out of power. That's the goal. Whatever the means except no on the level on the level there is an election no I will say on the level to win it you on the electoral level I will not say otherwise

52:27 than on the electoral level no it is we work we we have always worked for decades in this direction to win an election and to be able to get rid of the quarantined RDPC regime in power which has brought only misery and distress in our country. At some point this joke has to stop, this comedy. Whether it is Mr. Turoma, Mr. Boboba or Mr. Matomba who finds himself in pole position to bring us this change, we are taking it upon ourselves. It's true we didn't have any candidates today, we are ready so I don't want to judge Gon, he is a former minister and besides the one who defines the nation's policy is the President of the Republic. It's not the minister. The minister does

53:12 what the President of the Republic asks him to do. So he is not he is he is not an accountant. The one who is accountable passes to the sovereign. He is the President of the Republic that Cameroonians elected. Whether he was wrongly elected or not, he is responsible for the current disaster. OK. We could find an excuse for him through any ministry which, moreover, is currently working on reasoning so that this regime leaves. not the voice of but we at the PC we are not going to attribute the responsibility of economic and besides I remind that the people of when they come on the plateau, they must take stock of 43 years on all cultural, economic and infrastructural levels, school and others.

53:58 So and coming here, we see we see we see how uh just now the report how Cameroon is doing every evening. I am watching this on your television, which gives us these incredible images from all four corners of Cameroon. See the misery that affects Cameroonians. Thank you very much for having me and thank you for the of panelist. We cannot be in a country for 60 years we are still suffering basic necessity electricity water and road. But for Cameroonians I want to tell them that leaders who feed us during campaign and staff us during office are not worth are not worthy to be voted for. THANKS. Jeanclaud

54:45 for coming. The FSNC needs to know now where it is going because it has lost many leaders. Uh Salbana uh Yerim uh his secretary general. No, the vi means that at the base there were at least 500,000 people there. Leave us with the details there. Yeah.
