Pomla Ousmana Dahira, National Secretary in charge of Youths, Sports, and Culture at the Cameroon Renaissance Movement (CRM) political party, has resigned.
He tabled his resignation on on July 8, accusing the party of undermining state institutions.
“After several years in the National Executive of the MRC as National Secretary in charge of Youth, Sports, and Culture, I have decided to definitively put an end to my political commitment within the Cameroon Renaissance Movement, CRM,” Pomla stated in his resignation letter addressed to the National President of the party.
Accusing the party of undermining state institutions, the now-former youth secretary hinted at joining a different political party.
“I believe that it is high time for me to take another political path in order to completely dissociate myself from any political act likely to undermine public order, peace and living together in Cameroon. I remain convinced that political action must be carried out with respect for the institutions of the Republic and democratic values,” he added.
Declaring his intention of joining a new political outfit, he expressed gratitude to the CRM political party for trusting in him over the years.
“This is why I made the decision to leave the CRM from this day forward in order to seek another political framework that better corresponds to my ethical and moral principles,” he declared.
The CRM is yet to react to the latest resignation of one of its Members.
The party, whose President is Maurice Kamto, will be unable to participate in next year’s Presidential elections because it has no representative in Parliament and controls no Municipal Council.
The party’s hopes were dampened after the government passed a new bill extending the mandates of Parliamentarians and Municipal Councillors.
