| MR LANG : WATER ON A DUCK's BACK? |
Below
is Foligar Lang’s full letter to Cameroonians.
Fellow
Cameroonians
As
you all know, President Paul Biya has been in power for 34 years. Unfortunately,
and as confirmed by Marafa (a former Biya’s Minister of Territorial
Administration), Biya has never ever genuinely won any election in Cameroon.
Elections
in Cameroon have been rigged by the Biya’s regime because the Electoral System
is designed to favour the incumbent and the ruling party (CPDM).
As
you all are aware, one of the main reasons Biya has been in power for so long
is due to the fact that the opposition parties have been divided for the past
34 years. It is a shame.

| FRU NDI : LIVING ON PAST GLORIES? |
In
order for the opposition parties to win elections in Cameroon, opposition
parties must sink their differences, unite as a group to address pertinent
issues, make decisions and implement those decisions together.
In
their respective new year messages to the nation, Professor Maurice Kamto of
the CRM and Ni John Fru Ndi of the SDF called for the unity of all Cameroonians
and opposition parties of good faith against the Biya regime. The CRP welcomes this
invitation.
On
behalf of CRP, I would like to extend my hand to Ni John Fru Ndi and Professor Maurice
Kamto. The CRP is willing to work with the SDF,
CRM, with other parties and
individual groups that are interested in a regime change. CRP is equally
calling for a change of the current electoral code, the introduction of an
independent electoral commission and the abolition of ELECAM.
 |
| PROF KAMTO: ME OR NO ONE ELSE ? |
The
CRP is willing to press for the declaration of assets of all Presidential
candidates as provided in section 66 of the Cameroon constitution which has
always been ignored by Paul Biya and his government.
Fellow
CRP members
Fellow
Cameroonians
In
the coming days and on behalf of CRP, I will write to some opposition party
leaders requesting for a meeting, hoping that my invitation will be honoured. Talking
about unity is one thing. Making attempts to unite and actually uniting is another
thing. So, I will be making attempts to meet with other politicians. No party
is too big or too small, too young or too old to think that they can easily and
single-handedly put the CPDM out of power.
 |
| NDAM NJOYA CDU : WHERE IS CRP FROM? |
I am urging fellow politicians and
Cameroonians to keep pride, fear and cynicism aside so that we can possibly unite
as a single force on the things we agree on.
We must jointly put pressure on the dictator, Paul Biya so that we can finally
get what we want and deserve.
With
a united force, the Biya regime will be out of power come 2018 or even before
2018.
Long
live Cameroon
Long live CRP “With you and for you”
