SDF National Elective Convention Billed for October 2017!

 Jean Tsomelou, Senator from the West Region and President of the SDF Parliamentary Group speaking during the National Executive Committee Meeting on Saturday May 27 at the party’s Head Quarters at Ntarikon in Bamenda said they had just taken a certain number of resolutions including the chosing of October 2017 as the time for the  National Elective Convention.

Among other things he said they listened to the reports of some Regional Presidents and asked them to go back into the field and redynamise the party at the level of the Basic Organs and that they’d brought back SDF Echoes; the party Newspaper into circulation.

Reacting to problems  of the party in the Centre Region, and other related issues, he said problems in the center Region were not more than those in the Littoral and that decisions were being taken that will ensure that electoral processes go on smoothly in the problem regions such as the Center as well as the Adamawa and the South Regions.

“For us there are no problems as far as the activities of our party are concerned in the field. It is simply that in every house there are always problems. Our elections will sail through calmly. If you look at the Littoral Region that they were talking about so much, you will see that nothing is being talked about it today. This is because after the elections, the minority respected the majority and the majority did not suppress the minority. This is democracy and it is helping to prepare our upcoming electoral processes.”

Speaking about Honorable Wirba, he said SDF had no problems with him and that questions about the party having problems with Wirba should be thrown at those insinuating such. The President of the SDF Parliamentary group said questions should rather be thrown at the CPDM obliging them to explain what problems they have with people of the Northwest and the Southwest Regions. “Because it is inadmissible that a warrant of arrest be issued for a Member of Parliament so the best person to answer questions on problems in that direction is not found in the SDF party.”

Senator Hamman Paul from the Adamawa Region and Secretary of the SDF Senate group on his part said reports of the day came in mainly from the Adamawa, the Centre, the South and the Littoral. Most of the deliberations he said were centered on improving upon the life of the party. Commenting on the non participation of the party at the May 20 Celebrations, he said the decision was taken by the strategy Committee and called on Government to look at problems plaguing Anglophones in Cameroon adding that since November 2016 the SDF had called on Government to engage in sincere dialogue with the people who were looking for solutions to their various problems.

Nkemlemo Denis of the Communication Committee said attention was also given to the incessant kidnapping and abduction of people who are taken to Yaounde and indiscriminately charged on crimes ranging from Terrorism and crimes against the State which merit death penalty. He further said the return of SDF Echoes on the Newsstands was not to rival the other papers but to serve as a source of authentic information about the Social Democratic Front. He also drew attention to the fact that while much attention was being drawn by the SDF’s non participation at the May 20 celebrattions it should also be noted that the party did not also celebrate it 27^th anniversary which was supposed to take place on May 26.

Other sources have also revealed that on the day SDF was supposed to be celebrating its 27^th anniversary, the city of Bamenda saw heavy military presence along the Commercial Avenue and CPDM Bigwigs of the Northwest Region shepherded by Professor Elvis Ngole Ngole stormed the Congress Hall where a working session was held relating to the activities of the CPDM Academy; the brain child of Professor Elvis Ngole Ngole.
