Cameroonians in Switzerland have embarked on what they term an irreversible struggle for regime change in Cameroon on or before 2011.
The Post gathered that after a demonstration at the Cameroon Embassy in Bern, Switzerland, a movement called the Cameroon Action Group was formed to carry out investigations on President Paul Biya's activities in Switzerland, especially his financial transactions and how the Cameroonian taxpayers' money is squandered there.
One of their discoveries was that Brenda Eyanga Biya, the President's daughters is in Class Six in College du Leman where the school fee is a staggering FCFA 40,000,000 a year.
Daniel Tabeng and Francis Masice Nfonka, two Switzerland-based Cameroonians who led the demonstration to the Swiss Embassy, informed The Post online that they were scandalized by the discovery, especially when they considered the fact that average Cameroonians find it difficult to feed their families, let alone pay fees for their children.
"The average Cameroonian lives on less than a dollar a day, which is the equivalent of FCFA 450 and FCFA 40,000,000 is the yearly income of over 80 families."The two political activists who signed the memo calling for the freezing of Biya's Swiss account, called on the international community to carry out investigations and expose Biya's accounts abroad.

They told The Post that it was absurd that Biya is unable to respect the very Article 66 in the constitution, inserted on his instructions, which obliges people holding high office to declare their accounts before and after taking public office.
"Biya has gone on the rampage arresting his former collaborators on charges of embezzlement" said Nfonka, "he hasn't told the world how much he has in his own account."
Tabeng commended the story published by The Post in which Polycarpe Abah Abah, former Finance and Economy Minister threatened to expose Biya if he were not released.
with things like this it shows that politics in Cameroon is changing faces. My brother this is what we need in the 90s .

Nothing seamse to be... [Read Full Text]
I am a Cameroonian based in the US. How can we help find justice for Cameroonians and Africans? We have to stand up to biya and tell him enough is enough. Even if it means using "force". I will follow what ever plan you guys in Switzerland are working on. Please keep me posted. biya must go. Cameroon must be free.
