Fame Ndongo reacts to Marafa's book

After reading the trial of his party comrade imprisoned today, Minister of Higher Education published an article in which he poses "Twelve questions" to his former colleague from the government.

Minister of Higher Education, Jacques Fame Ndongo reacted to Marafa Hamidou Yaya's book, "The choice of action."

In an article published in the newspaper L'Action of November 19, 2014, the government member who is also a "politburo member" and "communication officer to the Secretary General, Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPDM," commented on the book which a dozen each time he concludes with a series of questions.

Comment No. 7 is particularly noteworthy as Fame Ndongo writes, "Jean Pierre Chevènement had a famous saying: a minister, closes his mouth, or he resigns. In light of the information, the book is full of Mr. Marafa's rather pejorative and derogatory remarks to the President of the Republic on his regime and actions, it would be expected that the author of the book resigns as Secretary of State to the Minister of Finance or as special advisor to the Head of State or as Minister of State, Minister of Territorial Administration and Decentralization. We would like to know why he had not done that."

That was the reaction to the excerpt from page 15 where Marafa said: "I never served Paul Biya, but the best interests of the nation."

Fame Ndongo who believes Marafa has not resigned from the CPDM wonders if a minister can claim from the institutional point of view the origin of an action that is the result of the power conferred on the chief executive.

The former journalist challenged Marafa to name "one major action by a minister from the government of the autonomous State of Cameroon (May 10 1957) without the approval of the executive who ultimately bears the institutional origin of action, the latter part of a comprehensive policy."

Jacques Fame Ndongo also wants to know if the disappointment of the people was on December 9, 2011, the date of Marafa Hamidou Yaya was ousted from the government.
