| CPP suspends Kah Walla led National Council |
Amongst the resolutions arrived
at during the meeting amongst others; the voting of Tamukong Roland Angong as
the Secretary General and National Coordinator of the party, the rescheduling
of the party’s national conference pending filling in of reports by al basic
organs, the joining of all political actors in a frank and sincere dialogue to
solve the Anglophone problem. On the form of state, the party declared their
support for a “unitary form of government and condemns very strongly all forms
of violence orchestrated by terrorists” while calling on all militants to ”join
the crusade for effective school resumption in the English Speaking parts of
Cameroon.”
The possible suspensions of the
party chairperson Kah Walla is however insinuated in the declared maintenance
of “CPP’s status as presidential majority” which has remained unperturbed since
1992 with the insistence that “all matters should be addressed or directed to
the Honorary National Chairman Founder and Father of CPP Rev Prof Tita Samuel
Fon.”
The party has also called on
“militants and sympathisers nationwide” to “remain loyal to the party and give
it enough support as she enters a crucial political season” and has also urged
militants to shown from politics of bickering, manipulation and exploitation.”
The CPP meeting has also warned
all “self-seeking individuals who have been using the party for money making
and personal aggrandizement.”
Mindful of Kah Walla’s
determination to bring meaning change and transition to Cameroon via the
different platforms she now coordinates like Cameroon Obosso and Stand Up For
Cameroon, observers are already describing the outing by the party Honorary
Chairman and declaring of party for presidential majority as a means to eject
her from the CPP.
Kah Walla was elected as the
president of Cameroon People's Party on April 30 th, 2011, succeeding to Samuel
Tita Fon who created the party in 1991.
The CEO of Strategy may now need
to begin a search for a political platform from which she presents herself for
the anticipated 2018 presidential elections.
She has recently been on the
shortlist of four by a campaign baptized Anglophone for President alongside
Akere Muna, Joshua Osih and Monki Joseph.
