Far North: 939 million FCFA for the maintenance of roads in the Mayo Tsanaga department

The Cameroonian capital is shaken by a controversy that is inflaming social networks and arousing the indignation of many citizens. At the heart of this storm: a controversial decision by the prefect of Mfoundi that pushed Cabral Libii, a rising political figure, to step up.

Cabral Libii protests against an unprecedented measure

Cabral Libii, known for his strong positions, reacted strongly to information relayed on 237online.com according to which the prefect of Mfoundi had taken the unprecedented and shocking decision to temporarily ban certain citizens from staying in the capital. This measure provoked a public outcry, with Libii at the forefront of the protest.

Cabral Libii’s scathing response

Faced with what he bluntly describes as “authoritarian drift”Cabral Libii did not mince his words. In a statement that caused a stir, the political leader denounced:

• A flagrant violation of the Cameroonian Constitution
• An attack on fundamental freedoms, in particular freedom of movement
• A clear abuse of power by the prefect

” We do not receive residence permits from the Prefects as nationals”hammered Libii, embodying the voice of many indignant Cameroonians.

The legal analysis that supports Libii’s position

The arguments put forward by Cabral Libii seem to find a favorable echo among legal experts. According to the analyses relayed by 237online.com, nothing in Cameroonian legislation allows a prefect to take such a measure. Neither the 1990 law on maintaining order, nor the 2008 decree on the attributions of heads of administrative districts provide for such a power.

Cabral Libii’s appeal to the authorities

Faced with the scale of the controversy, Cabral Libii urges higher authorities to react. He expressly asks the prefect of Mfoundi to “report this act which reflects a historic democratic regression”The ball is now in the government’s court, which will have to clarify the situation and potentially disavow the prefect.

Cabral Libii, voice of a democracy in peril?

With his muscular intervention, Cabral Libii is setting himself up as a defender of democratic values ​​in Cameroon. His involvement in this affair could strengthen his image as a determined opponent.
