Another APF militant dumps Ben Muna for Bello Bouba

From Michael Ndi in Bamenda
 
The Alliance of Progressive Forces (APF) has recorded another set back in the constituency of the founder  and national chairman, Barrister Ben Muna ; following the resignation of the pioneer lone APF municipal councillor in the country, Tayong Jacob Akum.

Tayong Jacob, an agriculture technician, tabled his resignation letter on September 8, 2014. According to the one-page resignation letter forwarded to the APF national chairman, he stressed that: “I am by this short notice, informing you (Barrister Ben Muna) through all the party organs that from the date of this signature I, the under signed, Tayong Jacob Akum has resigned from the APF party”. He said his resignation was personal regretting the inconvenience caused.
In a press briefing in Bamenda that followed his resignation from the APF, Tayong Jacob disclosed that he was already a militant of the National Union for Democracy and Progress, NUDP of Minister Bello Bouba Maigari. Hear him: “I have contacted my supporters before taking such a decision and they were all unanimous that with APF, they would be leading to no where since Barrister Ben Muna has politely signed his exit from the Cameroon political landscape”.
Tayong Jacob is the second political figure to quit APF in Ben Muna’s Mbengwi constituency. He followed one Mudoh Walters who crossed carpet from APF to UNDP during the September 2013 elections in Batibo.
On a one-on-one with Mudoh Walters who is currently the chairman of the UNDP adhoc committee for Momo reorganization, he said he left APF in 2013 and was list leader for UNDP municipal elections in 2013.
According to him, “UNDP in Momo is coming to neutralize other political parties like the APF, CPDM and SDF which are still led by old guards that have stubbornly refused to give way or accept the opinion of the younger generation in decision – making of the country”.
He observed that with a 30-year old national president of the NUDP youth wing, Ndansi Elvis coming from the North West region and proving his worth in politics, the party is today waxing strong in Momo division and will equally extend through out the nooks and crannies of the entire region of the North West.

  1. I can now confirm the rational behind this saying "politics is a dirty game". When the personal interest of a militant in a party is threatened he is bound to resign that is politics in Cameroon, politics of the stomach.
