Calls for Insurgency March : G20 Leaders Denounce Plans

In a press conference in Yaounde on September 18, 2020, the members of the G20 Group challenged the ‘go-to-war’ altitude propagated by some leaders of opposition political parties.

Members of the G20 Group in a press conference on September 18, 2020 in Yaounde have strongly condemned anti-democratic and insurgent calls by some politicians for Cameroonians to take to the streets as a means of demonstrating their complaints to the regime. Citing the leader of the Cameroon Renaissance Movement (CRM), Maurice Kamto, for inviting party supporters to an insurgent march on Tuesday September 22, 2020 in order to “chase” President of the Republic from power, the G20 group members call for a rejection to the invitation stating that President Paul Biya was legitimately elected by Cameroonians in October 2018 for a seven-years mandate. The members of the Group further denounce the protests march on grounds that its purpose is to challenge existing republican and democratic institutions. 
A final communique after the press conference states that the calls to an insurgent march follows earlier warnings by the same political party to prevent the organisation of regional elections in Cameroon without a prior consensual review of the electoral code and resolution of the crisis in the North West and South West Regions. To the G20 members, the upcoming regional elections to elect regional leaders is part of the resolutions taken during the Major National Dialogue in which the CRM took part but is today trying in an incomprehensible manner to prevent the implementation of the said resolutions. As part of measures being implemented to resolve the crisis in the two English speaking regions of the country, the communique highlights the Decentralisation law voted in Parliament and enacted by the President of the Republic, which gives more powers to local authorities in regions. “The ongoing reconstruction of the said regions is carried out with the highly welcomed support of bilateral and multilateral cooperation with friendly countries of Cameroon,” the release highlights.
