Government cancels all land titles in Douala Airport vicinity

The government has announced its decision to cancel all land titles within the designated domain of the Douala International Airport, a move that it says is geared at protecting the airport infrastructure.

This directive, issued through a communiqué signed by Secretary Ferdinand Ngoh Ngoh, authorised by the President of the Republic, aims to address potential encroachments and ensure the smooth operation of the vital transportation hub.

The communiqué, while not explicitly outlining the reasons behind the decision, underscores the paramount importance of safeguarding the land surrounding airports throughout Cameroon.

This move likely stems from concerns about unauthorized constructions, land disputes, or security risks that could compromise the functionality and safety of this critical facility and even claim lives.

The cancellation of land titles within the Douala Airport domain applies to both individuals and legal entities.

While the specific area affected remains undefined in the communiqué, it is expected to encompass the designated airport perimeter as established by regulatory authorities.

The impact on affected landowners and potential compensation measures are yet to be clarified.

This decision is bound to have significant implications for hundreds of households.

Property owners within the designated zone may face challenges regarding land ownership and potential relocation requirements.

The construction industry and related sectors could also experience disruptions due to restrictions on development near the airport.

However, the long-term benefits of safeguarding Cameroon’s air infrastructure are undeniable.

The government’s move is likely to be met with mixed reactions.

While some may perceive it as an infringement on individual property rights, others will undoubtedly commend the proactive approach to protecting vital national infrastructure.

The success of this initiative will hinge on clear communication with affected stakeholders, transparent implementation procedures, and the provision of adequate support measures for those impacted by land title cancellations.

The recent demolitions at New Town Airport were met with a lot of resistance because many who suffered it were neither relocated nor compensated.

The coming weeks and months will reveal the specifics of this policy’s implementation and its wider ramifications for the Douala community and beyond.
