One of those who flew to Cameroon from Germany to attend the Major
National Dialogue that took place in Yaounde-Cameroon has been arrested by
security officials in Yaounde. Though the circumstance surrounding his arrest
is still not clear, sources DrayInfos
could not independently confirm, indicated that, Paddy Asanga as he is popularly
called fell in the hands of security officials for allegedly taking pictures at
the Kondengui Maximum Security Prison Tuesday October 08, 2019. Sources say,
Paddy Asanga was visiting the prison when he decided to take pictures not
knowing taking pictures without authorization was prohibited.
Paddy Asanga is a Federalist based in Germany, a militant of the
Social Democratic Front Political Party, the SDF. This explains why, the SDF
party in Berlin Wednesday issued a press release calling for his immediate release:
“The
Executive Committee of the SDF in Germany met in an urgently meeting in Berlin
this day to demand the Immediate and Unconditional release of Paddy Asanga. The
Regional Secretary for Communication and Information and SDF Delegate from Germany
for the Grand National Dialogue has been arrested in Yaounde under unclear
circumstances. SDF German reiterates her total support for comrade Asanga”.
There has been no comment from the government
of Cameroon as to the reason why Paddy Asanga was arrested and where he is
being held. It should be noted that, before the commencement of the just ended
Grand National Dialogue that took place in Yaounde from the 30th to
the 05th of October 2019, the spokes person of the MND, George Ewane
said, no representative from the Diaspora to Cameroon for the Major National Dialogue
would be arrested.
