Inter Continental Hotel petitioned to ban Biya from using its facilities

A Cameroon Francophone body known as the Organization for Democratic Cameroonians in the Diaspora has written a petition to the management of Inter Continental Hotel Europe calling on it to ban President Paul Biya from using any of its facilities, Cameroon Concord has learned.

A very flippant but reliable source deep within Inter Continental Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland erroneously revealed that President Biya has a room reserved annually for him and his family costing the Cameroon tax payer 7500 euros a day.

The information which was made public over the week end has sparked controversial reactions even from militants of Mr. Biya's ruling CPDM party in the diaspora.

All attempts by Cameroon Concord's Chief Correspondent in Swiss to get the Cameroon ambassador to Switzerland Fabien Nkou Anatole to respond to the allegation has met with a stone wall.

Speaking to Cameroon Concord earlier today, Pierre Onana a Cameroon student at the University of Benn in Swiss said "it is shameful for a president of a country with more than 60 per cent of its population living below UN poverty line to be wasting tax payers' money like this".
