Fight against Boko Haram: The political class in one spirit

Professor Jacques Fame Ndongo (CPDM), Joshua Osih (SDF), Prof. Maurice Kamto (Mrc), Kah Walla (Cpp), Prof. Theophilus Yimgaing Moyo (Moci), El Hadj Oumarou Ya-Kamata, reacted after the tragic events in the Far North Region.

There was a strong condemnation of the suicide attacks in the Far North Region, and a mobilization of people against terror waged by various members of the political class on Monday, July 27, 2015, in the columns of national bilingual newspaper, Cameroon Tribune.

For Professor Jacques Fame Ndongo of the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement (CPDM), success is behind Biya: "Our party knows it can count on the maturity and insight of militants and sympathizers of the CPDM, if not all citizens to support unequivocally, as they have always done, the strategy developed by the army chief in order to destroy the forts of the terrorist group Boko Haram."

Joshua Osih, first national vice-president of the Social Democratic Front (SDF), says that his party "reaffirms its constant support for our security and defense forces without which the situation will be more serious than what is happening today."

The National President of the Movement for the revival of Cameroon (Mrc) Prof. Maurice Kamto indicates that "it is with the support of all Cameroonians that these radical terrorists will be defeated. In these painful moments for the Republic as a whole, the MRC salutes, with a particular resonance, the memory of our fallen compatriots in the field of the terror operations."

On behalf of the Cameroon people's Party (PPC), Kah Walla protested: "This attack against the innocent of Cameroon is an attack against our entire national community. As Cameroonians, we all have been attacked!"

Prof Moyo Theophile Yimgaing, Citizen Movement (Moci), for its part said "Citizens Movement and the Patriotic Front forces of Panafricanists calls on the Cameroonian people particularly those in large cities, to be in extreme vigilance and seamless cooperation with the forces of defenses and administrative authorities by denouncing any act of suspicious persons."

El Hadj Oumarou, national president of Ya-Kamata, said we must "explain to national communities the real involvement of the Popular Defence concept. So that everyone understands that the war against Boko Haram is not only the financial contribution to the war effort and organizing marches".
