I also own land in Fako – Tiku Tambe

Christopher Tiku Tambe, the Secretary of the South West office of the National Commission on Human Rights and Freedoms has told The Sun that he has land in his name in Molyko. He said the over 600square metres of land is not a surrendered land.

He insists that the land in questions exists only on paper and he is still waiting for surveyors to take him to the actual site. Tiku Tambe was reacting to claims made by some chiefs that he is also a beneficiary of surrendered CDC lands. He also denies claims that he gave Chief Epupa FCFA 1 million to buy him over.

The land allocated to me at the Molyko new layout is not a CDC surrendered land. They gave me National Land. I was apportioned land that I have not seen with my own eyes. If they have the land, let them go and show me and I will take the land. What we are fighting is the grabbing of CDC surrendered land.

For your information, if they are not even aware, I have land in Batoke. The chiefs are not the ones who gave me that land in Molyko. That land was given by the government through the SDO. The land is 600square metres. Let them show you the documents of the land and who I sold it to and for how much. They should show you the receipts. Where is the land? Why should I be selling land when I need land? If I need

The ed money, I will sell the one in Batoke which is about 2000square metres. I’m not the type that will take land and sell. As a Cameroonian, I have the right to own land anywhere, but such land should not be CDC land. CDC surrendered land is not subject to sale.

Do I need to buy people to join my camp? If I had money I’ll rather send my child to study in England. My daughter is the first in the GCE A/L in Cameroon. If I see Chief Epupa Ekum, I may not know him. Why should I spend such an amount on something I’ll not have any benefit from?

As far as land in Fako is concerned, I have already finished my job. The damage has been done already. So what they are trying to do is the last kick of a dying horse.

They are all under investigation. If they think that they have credible information for me to be investigated, then they can go ahead and put forth that evidence. As far as I’m concerned, my job is finished. I wanted to expose the illegality and I have done that.
