The Minister of State, Minister of Justice Laurent Esso chaired the event in Yaounde on January 18, 2017.
The practice of justice in Cameroon has been enriched with official English copies of the Penal Code, the treaty creating OHADA and OHADA Uniform Acts handed to the President of the Bar Council of Cameroon, Barrister Ngnie Kamga for use by legal practitioners in the different jurisdictions especially in the English-speaking North West and South West Regions. OHADA is the Organisation for the Harmonisation of Business Law in Africa.
The Minister of State, Minister of Justice and Keeper of the Seals, Laurent Esso, handed copies of the legal instruments to the President of the Bar Council in a ceremony at the Ministry of Justice in Yaounde on January 18, 2017.
