He made the call while opening the June parliamentary session today.

“The Head of State has already ordered an audit of the management of funds for Covid-19 control n Cameroon. I beseech my fellow citizens to kindly wait for results of the audit by refraining from having … to judge some Cameroonians beforehand and expose them to mob justice” said the House speaker.
