Minister of Mines Auction Cameroon to China, Civil Society Front Cancellation of 50 Years Convention

Gabriel Dodo Ndoke Cameroon's Minister of Mines

To exploit, the rich Mineral base of Kribi and Campo. This high level deal was stroke and signed by Gabriel Dodo Ndoke Cameroon’s Minister of Mines on the 6^th of May 2022 with the renown Chinese exploitative company specialized in the exploration of Mineral resources Sinosteel.

The said deal, gives the Company the latitude to harness and harvest mineral resources of the area without reserve for 50 years in return for a total of 23 Billion yearly multiplied by 50 years which gives Cameroon nothing reasonable as a take home package.

To the parties concern, it is a win win and a gain gain situation that will help Cameroon redress the general financial  economic hardship she is into.

A motive or reason d’etre for the convention which has sparked a high level of criticism from all a sundry. Whether Cameroon must auction all to survive? And why is the Ministry in question unable to do the exploration and exploitation for sales?

Where Cameroon is, in a pool of financial mess and dilemma according to the people she can only survive in the future if they have ready available mines and natural resources to harvest for survival.

If all is auctioned not even sold then the premise this Cameroon’s leadership are building is not a good one for the future generation.

That is why the civil society (RECONCILIATEUR) have taken upon themselves of late to advocate for the cancellation of all those funny conventions signed by heartless Ministers to forfeit private gains and interest not looking at the great havoc it may cause the country in future.
