Amadou Vamoulké summoned to court again

The General Manager of the Cameroon Radio and Television (CRTV) was under a long interrogation at the Special Criminal Court at the time Yaoundé welcomed the presidential couple from their private stay in Europe.

Justice Annie Sorelle Bahonoui kept Amadou Vamoulké the whole day seeking information that will help keep Prof. Gervais Mendo Ze in prison and by extrapolation Amadou Vamoulke.

It was also the second meeting between Justice Bahonoui and Vamoulké after formal charges were served to him on February 17 by the same court, after two hours of hearing, for embezzlement in coaction with his predecessor Gervais Mendo Ze, currently behind bars.

Our source revealed that the General Manager of the Cameroon Radio and Television could be arrested soon.

He observed that his arrest is expected before the next hearing by the investigating magistrate on a date that has not been specified. Amadou Vamoulke who arrived at the head of CRTV on January 26, 2005 with the slogan "modern management” is now heading towards his end.

Mr. Vamoulké has already been the subject of more than 15 management controls and we understand that the company's financial commission has detected a "budget hole" amounting to 15.450 billion CFA francs.

Interestingly, Amadou Vamoulké continues to sign his own mission orders in violation of the law which makes it the sole prerogative of the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Our reporter gathered that a monitoring report of 31st December 2006 revealed that CRTV had 2,097 part time staff including 2,054 permanent work force.

In November 30, 2007, the Agency had 2022 staffs with 121 not reported in the official wage statement.

Vamoulke has also been accused of a deal that involved the acquisition of 14 transmitters. Only 4 transmitters were delivered. The famous renovation of the sealing system of the production centre at Mballa II was another story.

It is thus believed that it was a ghost contract assigned to a company Nicam.
