The Director-General of the National School of Local Administration (NASLA), Tanyitiku E. Bayee, has signed a call for applications as well as a statement related to the launch of training for municipal police officers in the municipalities in Cameroon.
This came after the Minister of Decentralisation and Local Development, (MINDDEVEL), approved the deliberations on the creation of such services.
These council areas are therefore invited to familiarise themselves with the terms of this call for applications and the related statement in order to best organise the training of individuals working in these services.
MINDDEVEL has invited councils wishing to have a municipal police service to comply with the applicable regulatory provisions. It encourages them to approach #NASLA and the competent services of its ministerial department for any information related to this matter.
Finally, it relies on the understanding and responsibility of all to ensure that peace and good order remain in our cities.
Mimi Mefo Info (MMI) is an Independent online news reporting network based in the UK, Germany & Cameroon. We have reporters across most of Cameroon’s ten regions, bringing you independent news on a daily basis. MMI is not affiliated with any government or organisation. As such, we report the news with objectivity, aiming to encourage freedom of the press and expression, hold authorities to account, and encourage a system of citizen journalism where Cameroonians from all works of life can get their stories told.
Despite the hostile media environment in Cameroon, where journalists are constantly, harassed, arrested, or killed, MMI believes that the only way to overcome this is to create a structure of reporting, where journalists are free to work, without jeopardising their safety. Hence, while MMI is registered in the UK and has its top management out of Cameroon, the journalists who cover the news on a daily basis are resident across different regions of Cameroon.
MMI also covers news of interest across different countries in Africa and the globe. Often, these are stories that have been authenticated by local media sources. The objective is to amplify the voices of others in these countries and provide the Cameroonian audience with up-to-date happenings in other areas of the continent and the world.
We believe that information is power and should be used in shaping society for the good of everyone. We believe that everyone stands to benefit when we embrace and value the diversity of thoughts, ideas, and ways of working that people from different backgrounds, experiences, and identities bring.
