Uproar: As the Media Cries Foul to Cameroon Minister's Scandalous Declaration over Usage of COVID 19 Funds
-22 Billions Squandered in the space of 6 Months
-Population, Journalists, Civil society in bewilderment Clamor for Minister and health Official's Arrest.
Last 23rd July's call by Cameroon's Prime Minister, Head of Government Chief Dr Dion Ngute for investigations to be opened and audits carried out on the unclear or scandalous report presented by the Minister of health in his last Media outing in Yaounde, is still sparking confusion within the media circles and provoking uproar amongst Cameroonians of good will.
22 Billions to have been Squandered in the space of six months by the Minister of health Manaouda Malaichi and his officials is unimaginable and unbelievable.
To contain a virus, while the country keeps recording positive cases daily.
The rate of infection in Cameroon from statistics is exponentially growing and does not March with all efforts and means put all together by the government, EU countries and WHO to put situation under control.
Meaning all what has been going on in the name of building of isolated specialized treatment centers, treatment, expenditures on each quarantine case, nation wide screening, buying of specialized health and treatment equipments, risk allowances, supplies and missions are all cosmetic, cooked up or better still, stealing arrangements.
It is unfortunate but the facts are there, couple with the illicit acts of viscious Doctor who tag most death cases COVID-19 to make money as such scaring population from going to the hospital.
This acts of gross dishonesty is not surprising from the Present Minister of health and his officials to the public who are living witness to the last arrest of former Minister Urbaine olangene in 2008 for embezzlement of health funds and immidiately after him government threatened to arrest Andre Mama Fouda his successor on similar charges of embezzlement, today government has ordered his successor to be auditted while in office.
From all indication the present Minister of health is following the footsteps of past Ministers. In no distance time the special team of auditors from the supreme state control audit in Cameroon will come out with their findings.
Other sources close to the intelligence service of the presidency holds it that the anti corruption unit has been put behind the Minister to unmask those toiling arround with COVID-19 funds.
By extension, it is likely that there may be cabinet shakeup in no distance time just because of the Minister's alleged atrocious acts.
