Declaration warning against the interference of foreign nationals in the ongoing electoral fraud orchestrated by ELECAM, the national police and the CPDM.

DECLARATION WARNING AGAINST THE INTERFERENCE OF FOREIGN NATIONALS IN THE ONGOING ELECTORAL FRAUD ORCHESTRATED BY ELECAM, THE NATIONAL POLICE AND THE CPDM.

It has come to my attention that in addition to using Cameroonian citizens to organise electoral fraud from the voter registration phase, the trio of ELECAM, the General Delegation of National Security (DGSN) and the CPDM are now using foreign nationals resident in our country.

The mechanism is as follows: the CPDM’s political elites identify the foreigners to whom the DGSN issues real fake national identity cards, ELECAM registers them on the electoral roll and the CPDM’s local elite keeps their electoral cards until voting day to fraudulently get them to vote with these electoral cards. Real-false voters with real-false electoral cards. It is cruel that Africans who enjoy the fraternal hospitality of Cameroonians should agree to play this criminal game at a time when our people are mobilising in fierce adversity to give themselves a future through the forthcoming presidential election.

Whether consciously or unconsciously, driven by the dream of perpetual power over Cameroon, the current regime is granting Cameroonian nationality to foreigners who have not applied for it or renounced their nationality of origin, while preventing millions of Cameroonians in the Diaspora from taking part in the elections.

Cameroonians are hard at work in various localities, in various parts of the country, particularly in certain clearly identified areas, to track down the foreigners and CPDM political elites at the heart of these savage and intolerable electoral frauds.

It is easy to understand why the coalition of ELECAM, the High Court of Mfoundi, the Constitutional Council, the Court of Appeal of the Centre Region and the CPDM is doing everything in its power to prevent the application of Article 80 of the Electoral Code, which prescribes the publication of the national electoral roll no later than 30 December each year.

I invite the diplomatic and consular representations of Cameroon’s neighbouring countries to dissuade their nationals from taking the risk of interfering in the electoral process in Cameroon, their host country.

Foreign residents who participate in these electoral frauds by the CPDM regime must be fully aware that they are exposing themselves to the rigours of the law, and to the consequences of all kinds that such crimes could entail. Cameroonians are very hospitable people, but they would certainly not appreciate it if Africans whom they welcome in all fraternity were to distort the elections, particularly in this year 2025 when the future of their country is at stake. They intend to be the only ones to choose their leaders in strict compliance with the laws of the Republic, in particular the Electoral Code.
