Crying Fowl: Cameroon Minister of Water and Energy Pushing Back Multi-Billion Water Funds from EXIMBank India Meant for 20 Semi Urban Towns


-How Minister of Water and Energy with Gang Continue to Wave Orders from the Presidency since 2018 till Date

-WPIL Limited almost Packing out after Eight Months in Cameroon without concluding  jobbing Orders to Execute Contracts while Cholera Continue Ravaging South West and other Parts of Cameroon

Going by a series of correspondences from the Presidency since 2018 till date on the high instructions of the Head of State President of the Republic Paul Biya, the Minister of Water and Energy Gaston Eloundou Esomba have been ordered on several occasions to engage the contract with EXIMBank and make sure the funding meant for water does not go back.

But it will beat your imagination and surprise that as we report, the said Limited company (WPIL) has been in Cameroon for the execution of the Project with Nkah Engineering Group for the past eight months and have been unable to conclude the jobbing arrangements with the Minister and are almost Packing out.

All because of negligence, too much bottle neck in the Ministry in question and bad fate of the Minister as Cameroonians die in their tones because of lack of portable water even at the mercy of the beg and call of big foreign banks which are ready to harness such resources with their own funds for the welfare of the people.

It is unfortunate and how can one even come to explain that a Minister disrespects four different correspondences from the Presidency on high instructions of the head of state to contract a deal with a foreign bank for water resources to be harnessed for 20 Semi Urban Towns in Cameroon.


There is no sufficient or adequate reason to give other than negligence, bad fate or better still the terms (of the Minister) which does not agree with the foreign bodies.

Certainly, kick back and issues on percentage should be the bottom line for why the Minister and gang are dragging their legs to do as instructed by the President even through the Prime Minister in 2019 and recently this March 25th 2022.

Such a behavior breeds great room for suspicion and questioning about the morals of a Minister who claims to have the people’s fate at hand and claims to be loyal to the head of state.

Just this action of the Minister in question proves that he is one of the enemies in the house who is doing everything humanly possible to discredit Biya’s 2035 emergence goals and regime.

Toiling around with the fate of over 25 million Cameroonians living at the mercy of cholera for selfish and egoistic interest speaks volumes about the type of Ministers Cameroon has.

Even when, a son of the soil source for the funds and a foreign bank willfully offer to pomp billions with out interest and a Minister is there complicating even on high instructions, then the Civil society, the benefitting towns, leaders of political parties, Religious leaders should rise and speak out on the matter for Minister Eloundou to be called to order.
