Debate

Will Gov’t Disarmament committee solve Cameroon’s security crisis?

Ruyuy Nana
Business Man

Yes
The establishment of the structure complements the Emergency Humanitarian Assistance Plan and the Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Centre for the restive English speaking regions.
It is lauded initiative as it shows the Head of State commitment to bring peace in the region. I think if well implemented, peace will return to crisis stricken regions.

No
I think it is one of those overzealous Government's structures. How can you create a commission without calling for a ceasefire in the warring regions.

A ceasefire should have preceded the creation of the committee for Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration. So, I don't see how peace will return after this.
