  • Cameroon Page 1 of 19
    Cameroon Page 1 of 19 Cameroon Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2004 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor February 28, 2005 Cameroon is a republic dominated by a strong presidency. Despite the country's multiparty system of government, the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement (CPDM) has remained in power since the early years of independence. In October, CPDM leader Paul Biya won re-election as President. The primary opposition parties fielded candidates; however, the election was flawed by irregularities, particularly in the voter registration process. The President retains the power to control legislation or to rule by decree. He has used his legislative control to change the Constitution and extend the term lengths of the presidency. The judiciary was subject to significant executive influence and suffered from corruption and inefficiency. The national police (DGSN), the National Intelligence Service (DGRE), the Gendarmerie, the Ministry of Territorial Administration, Military Security, the army, the civilian Minister of Defense, the civilian head of police, and, to a lesser extent, the Presidential Guard are responsible for internal security; the DGSN and Gendarmerie have primary responsibility for law enforcement. The Ministry of Defense, including the Gendarmerie, DGSN, and DRGE, are under an office of the Presidency, resulting in strong presidential control of internal security forces. Although civilian authorities generally maintained effective control of the security forces, there were frequent instances in which elements of the security forces acted independently of government authority. Members of the security forces continued to commit numerous serious human rights abuses. The majority of the population of approximately 16.3 million resided in rural areas; agriculture accounted for 24 percent of gross domestic product.

    Report Multi-Sector Rapid Assessment in the West and Littoral Regions Format Cameroon, 25-29 September 2018 1. GENERAL OVERVIEW a) Background What? The humanitarian crisis affecting the North-West and the South-West Regions has a growing impact in the bordering regions of West and Littoral. Since April 2018, there has been a proliferation of non-state armed groups (NSAG) and intensification of confrontations between NSAG and the state armed forces. As of 1st October, an estimated 350,000 people are displaced 246,000 in the South-West and 104,000 in the North-West; with a potential increment due to escalation in hostilities. Why? An increasing number of families are leaving these regions to take refuge in Littoral and the West Regions following disruption of livelihoods and agricultural activities. Children are particularly affected due to destruction or closure of schools and the “No School” policy ordered by NSAG since 2016. The situation has considerably evolved in the past three months because of: i) the anticipated security flashpoints (the start of the school year, the “October 1st anniversary” and the elections); ii) the increasing restriction of movement (curfew extended in the North-West, “No Movement Policy” issued by non-state actors; and iii) increase in both official and informal checkpoints. Consequently, there has been a major increase in the number of people leaving the two regions to seek safety and/or to access economic and educational opportunities. Preliminary findings indicate that IDPs are facing similar difficulties and humanitarian needs than the one reported in the North-West and the South-West regions following the multisectoral needs assessment done in March 2018.

  • Molecular Identification and Prevalence of Tick-Borne Pathogens
    Abanda et al. Parasites Vectors (2019) 12:448 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-019-3699-x Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Molecular identifcation and prevalence of tick-borne pathogens in zebu and taurine cattle in North Cameroon Babette Abanda1,2,4* , Archile Paguem1,2, Mamoudou Abdoulmoumini3, Manchang Tanyi Kingsley5, Alfons Renz1 and Albert Eisenbarth1,6 Abstract Background: Public interest for tick-borne pathogens in cattle livestock is rising due to their veterinary and zoonotic importance. Consequently, correct identifcation of these potential pathogens is crucial to estimate the level of expo- sition, the risk and the detrimental impact on livestock and the human population. Results: Conventional PCR with generic primers was used to identify groups of tick-borne pathogens in cattle breeds from northern Cameroon. The overall prevalence in 1260 blood samples was 89.1%, with 993 (78.8%) positive for Theileria/Babesia spp., 959 (76.1%) for Anaplasma/Ehrlichia spp., 225 (17.9%) for Borrelia spp., and 180 (14.3%) for Rickettsia spp. Sanger sequencing of a subset of positively-tested samples revealed the presence of Theileria mutans (92.2%, 130/141), T. velifera (16.3%, 23/141), Anaplasma centrale (10.9%, 15/137), A. marginale (30.7%, 42/137), A. platys (51.1%, 70/137), Anaplasma sp. ‘Hadesa’ (10.9%, 15/137), Ehrlichia ruminantium (0.7%, 1/137), E. canis (0.7%, 1/137), Borrelia theileri (91.3%, 42/46), Rickettsia africae (59.4%, 19/32) and R. felis (12.5%, 4/32). A high level of both intra- and inter-generic co-infections (76.0%) was observed.

  • Half a Century of Tsetse and Animal Trypanosomosis Control on the Adamawa Plateau in Cameroon
    Half a Century of Tsetse and Animal Trypanosomosis Control on the Adamawa Plateau in Cameroon A. Mamoudou 1 A. Zoli 1 P. Van den Bossche 2 V. Delespaux 2 D. Cuisance 3 S.

Three species of tsetse flies have been recorded: Glossina morsitans submorsitans, G. fuscipes ■ fuscipes and G. tachinoides. Between 1960 and 1975 the Cameroonian Gov- ernment organized large-scale trypanocidal treatment campaigns of cattle. Later on, tsetse control activities were initiated. Between 1976 and 1994, sev- eral aerial spraying campaigns were carried out which resulted in the clear- ance of 3,200,000 hectares of pastures. Unfortunately, reinvasion of tsetse flies in several cleared areas could not be avoided. To prevent reinvasion of tsetse flies from Koutine Plain (north of the Adamawa plateau), a barrier consisting of screens and traps was set in place. However, bush fires destroyed most of the screens and traps soon after deployment in 1994. Thereafter, the bar- rier was replaced by a program of insecticide treatments of cattle. Cross-sec- tional and longitudinal parasitological and entomological surveys in 2004-05 showed that the barrier of insecticide-treated cattle had succeeded in keeping the plateau relatively tsetse free. The incidence of trypanosomosis in cattle on the plateau was reported to vary between 0 and 2.1%.

  • Morphological Characterization of Four Leguminous Crops Cultivated in Two Agro Ecological Zone: Western and Guinean Savannah Highlands of Cameroon
    European Scientific Journal March 2019 edition Vol.15, No.9 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 Morphological Characterization of Four Leguminous Crops Cultivated in Two Agro Ecological Zone: Western and Guinean Savannah Highlands of Cameroon Momo Wobeng Nelly Blondelle, Department of Biological Sciences, Laboratory of Biodiversity and Sustainable Development, University of Ngaoundere, Cameroon Megueni Clautilde, Head of Department of Biological Sciences, University of Ngaoundere Cameroon Mandou Mouncharou Marie Solange, Department of Crop Science, FASA, University of Dschang, Cameroon Madou Chantal, Department of Biological Sciences, University of Ngaoundere, Cameroon. Institute of Agricultural Research for Development (IRAD), Garoua, Cameroon Mapongmetsem Pierre Marie, Head of Laboratory of Biodiversity and Sustainable Development, University of Ngaoundere, Cameroon Doi: 10.19044/esj.2019.v15n9p389 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2019.v15n9p389 Abstract In 2014, quarter (¼) of Africa populations were estimated to be suffering from hunger. In Cameroon, the demand for food is increasing while productivity was decreasing subsequently the food insufficiency. To solve this problem, leguminous crops were valorized in Cameroon. They represent a major source of protein especially among the poorest population, and are rich in essential amino acids such as lysine, supplementing thus the nutritional value of cereal and tuber diets. Nevertheless, their production faced the problem of soil degradation and loss of soil fertility. The main objective of this work was to characterize leguminous crops cultivated in two agro ecological zones of Cameroon. Investigations based on farmer’s knowledge on leguminous crops cultivation were done in Western highlands and High Guinean savannah zones of Cameroon. During this survey, leguminous crops were collected for qualitative and quantitative analysis.
