Some persons involved in the collection of bribes to secure places in health training schools during competitive entrance examinations have been fished out.
The information was disclosed on September 7, by Manaouda Malachie, Cameroon’s Minister of public health.
According to Dr Manaouda Malachie, they were apprehended following thorough investigations by the Judicial Police.
“… Investigations carried out by the judicial police for several months have made it possible to lay hands on many ill-intentioned people, engaged in [illicit] maneuvers of admission to competitive entrance examinations for training schools for health personnel under the Ministry of Public Health and to certification examinations sanctioning the end of training in the said schools, ” said the Public Health Minister.
Dr Manaouda Malachie equally reiterated that the only condition for admission is obtaining the minimum mark required.
“The Minister of Public Health invites them to refrain from yielding to any proposal for the coinage of the said examinations,” he warned.
Persons involved in the collection of bribes for such exams, according to the Minister, will be “… placed at the disposal of the courts are subject to sanctions, in accordance with the provisions of the Penal Code.”
The collection of bribes for competitive entrance examinations in Cameroon is a common practice, carried out not only in health institutions.
Many spend millions in bribes to secure a place in public educational institutions.
