Manifestations Against State Institutions : Gov’t Urges Cameroonians To Be Exemplary In Republican Morality

Below is a statement from the Minister of Communication.

“It is no secret to anyone that, for some time now, the visits of the President of the Republic, His Excellency Paul Biya, and his wife to certain foreign countries have been giving rise to aggressive, violent and uncontrolled actions and demonstrations organised by some of our compatriots, motivated by the desire to disrupt the smooth running of the said visits.

The government of the Republic, through my voice, appeals to the patriotism of these fellow citizens in the diaspora, to their honourability and sense of responsibility, so that they refrain from such inappropriate, dishonourable and pernicious actions, which can only heap opprobrium on all, and harm their own...
