Tensions are growing steadily between Cameroon and France over the fate of the correspondent of Radio France Internale in Cameroon.
Cameroon lashed out at Rfi and France on Friday in retaliation to strong accusations over alleged injustice inflicted upon Ahmed Abba who was sentenced to ten years in prison by a military tribunal in Yaoundé last Monday.
A critical editorial from the state-run broadcaster, CRTV, declared and reaffirmed that Mr Abba deserved the sentence. It went further to ask France about the raison d’être of her own numerous prisons. CRTV also reiterated that Ahmed Abba is a Cameroonian, so tacitly he ought to have mastered Cameroon’s judicial life as well as been more patriotic. Cameroon is a sovereign state and will not receive orders from whomever in the name of freedom, concluded the editorial.
