The four Cameroonians who are presently in police custody, according to some sources, declared Dr Samuel Fokam Azu’uh, in his capacity as Deputy Secretary General at the National Assembly, signed fake mission orders to help them obtain visas.
News paper reports even claim these four did pay three million francs each for the mission orders. Dr Samuel Fokam Azu’uh has denied any wrong doing.
Reacting to the scandal, the Secretary General of the National Assembly, Louis Claude Nyassa argued that these are all false claims.
He stated that only the Speaker of the National Assembly has the powers to sign mission orders.
The Secretary General made clear that, contrary to News paper reports, Police inquiry at the National Assembly did, in no way, point to Fokam Azu’uh.
Sources say investigations have now extended to the Moroccan Embassy to determine the origin of the supporting document.
This scandal, it is worth noting, was made public shortly after the Deputy Secretary General of the National Assembly was appointed Chairman of ELECAM, the body charged with the organization and supervision of elections in Cameroon.
