Fraud in Cameroon's 2018 presidential elections

An opposition contender who will seek election in Cameroon's impending presidential polls alleged on Friday that a "massive fraud" is underway to ensure the sitting president wins a seventh term.

Maurice Kamto's campaign chief Paul-Eric Kingue said that efforts to rig Sunday's ballot "had the blessing" of the Elecam electoral commission.

"We won't accept any result if this kind of fraud continues," he said at a media briefing by Kamto's Movement for the Rebirth of Cameroon (MRC) party in the capital Yaounde.

Kingue called on party supporters to "fiercely resist" rigging.

The MRC has alleged that polling cards have been forged and that voter registration has been allowed to continue despite the process being officially closed.

"In 62% of areas, the (ruling) Cameroon People's Democratic Movement party is still adding names to the voter roll," said Kingue.

"But this year, 2018, will not be like 2011," he vowed.

In the most recent presidential elections in that year, President Paul Biya won a sixth term in office with 78% of votes in polls the opposition and observers accused of being flawed.

But the masses are blinded to see all these
The masses are d real problem of the country.
If they want a change today, there will be a revolution but most of them are the tools used to truncate the plans of the others.

Exactly, power belongs to the people not the politicians. Here in the US we are preparing for mid term elections, you need to see real campaigning. Politicians focus their campaigns on real issues, you either hear them talk about tax administration, affordable health, etc. These are issues affecting the common American and these are what they will be measured with at the next elections, how well they delivered on their promises on these. Nobody campaigns on providing boreholes or good roads cos those are necessities. Nigeria will get there sha.

I don't think the average Nigerian is ready for something of such.

I was following the town hall meeting of the democratic candidate of Texas who is going against Ted Cruz. He was asked what is there for him to do since Texas has the lowest unemployment rate in America, his response was something else.
He didn't insult the senator but said he planned to raise the standard of living than it is now. He said so many things that made me wonder why we don't have brilliant politicians in Nigeria, but then I had to conclude that most of these politicians employ the same masses to fight against themselves.

I personally live in Texas and I can tell you the governor is doing very well, yet people are not relaxed, they are holding the politicians accountable. They are tackling one of the aspiring senator now just because he questioned the rational behind building the Mexico wall. Just recently, the surface of a 12 miles highway was re-layed, it took roughly three weeks to complete the eight lanes, no disruption of traffic. You just drive in the morning and see they have completed a portion and when they finished nobody came to cut a red ribbon cos it’s a no brainer. Africa you build such road and the president will leave behind national issues to go commission a road.

In Africa when they construct a 1km road, they will want the masses to shout their praise.

The problem is the masses, if u follow comments in this forum you will discover what I'm talking about.
People can kill themselves over a politician that can decamp the next minute, something that hardly happens in America.

Sincerely, I sometimes don’t bother reading the comments on nairaland cos they are full of shit. All they know is insults and support politicians blindly. I mainly read to get latest happenings in Nigeria, I depend on nairaland and Linda for local news, not as if I have other choices though.
