« Voici la 3 ème République » , titrait récemment en Une l’hebdomadaire « L’avocat » , pour évoquer la vie carcérale des « people » pris dans le tourbillon de « l’opération Epervier ». Avec une accroche comme celle là, ça devrait être un succès assuré auprès du lectorat camerounais, et du public soucieux de découvrir par le menu tous les détails de la vie des « prévaricateurs » de la République. Combien de journaux vendus ? Combien de tirages supplémentaires pour cause de rupture de stocks après ce dossier à charge ? Passons.
« Embastillés depuis un certain temps, les prisonniers de luxe savent qu’ils n’y sont pas pour longtemps » , pouvait-on lire en couverture. « Comment ils vivent en prison », s’interrogeait l’hebdomadaire ? Et de poursuivre sur « leur stratégie de prise de pouvoir », enchaînant sur la composition du futur Etat camerounais, où Edouard Etonde Ekoto, colonel à la retraite depuis trois décennies !, occuperait le poste de ministre de la Défense. Autant dire qu’en cas de réalisation de ce gouvernement virtuel l’ancien militaire would return to his first love. It's fate, I tell you!
Concerning its other companions in misfortune, they too were not forgotten by the weekly, hence the allocation of ministerial posts below. Pierre Desire Engo
was appointed President of the Republic since its ... ... New Bell prison!
Edzoa Titus was appointed Vice-President of the Republic ... .... Celllule since the prison Kondengui!
Forjindam Mungwa became Prime Minister. ... From his cell in the Rison New Bell! Haman Adama
was promoted to Minister of State and Secretary General of the Presidency ... .. from prison Kondengui!
The least we can say is that through this upheaval unlikely at the top of the state of journalism in Cameroon showed how much he excelled in the comic more and schoolboy humor that in respect of the professional ethics. Like what, we only have the press we deserve in this country.
Three key lessons were learned from this "special edition" devoted to the "third republic" end of the shallows of the prison in Cameroon.
First, The will of lynching, disinformation and slander those who find themselves behind bars on behalf of President of the Republic is no doubt. The role of the media is there to inform or engage in antics of bad taste, as evidenced by the composition of a virtual government, pages 1 and 7? ?
Does the press have the task of Attorney? That is a paradox on the part of a weekly called "The Lawyer".
Second, it seems clear that the leitmotif of the Cameroonian press, especially this week, is Sensationalism to low blows. Regardless of whether the facts pleaded are truncated, this is not the most important, according "Advocate" because the main thing is to bait the barge, the reader curious to know how the Republic treats its executives disgraced by the will of the monarch. And for that, the arrangements with the truth are legion. For example, how explain that the weekly page 6, evokes an increase in the imprisonment of Colonel Edward Etonde Ekoto, or 15 years (on appeal instead of 10 years in the first ruling of the Court of Great Forum Wouri )? Need I remind you that collegiality has only confirmed the original sentence restraint December 13, 2007 ? The media have a mission to bring the word government, disseminating state propaganda?

Thirdly, there is a real problem of consistency journalist. When there are no cons meaning in a sentence, the last article on page 6, (the reporter referred to "the minimum capacity of 700" instead of full capacity, trying to evoke the overcrowding approaching 3000 prisoners) is absence does neutrality calls As the words used by journalists are those of prosecutors, these supplementary power. "It is obviously guilty of something in New Bell" .... "The famous Operation Hawk, which is supposed to prosecute and try those guilty of misappropriation of public money" , page 7. As for the description of "PIPOL" of cell 18, it is more of "they say" of journalism. How to remain credible in the same article when you mention "the VIP area penitentiary" while denouncing the conditions of overcrowding ( 3500 prisoners for the 700 seats real ), unsanitary conditions, dangerousness and dilapidated facilities ( prison built in 1930 )? Can we claim to be a journalist without meeting a minimum of ethics? For example, when a trainee journalist writes an entire article?
Let no mistake, this issue devoted to the "third republic" does not really intended to inform rather than entertain the price of slander, approximations, lies, etc ... The critics of "the Operation Sparrowhawk "Are strengthened in their struggle against arbitrary and violation of human rights in Cameroon. For that reason alone, the weekly "Counsel" be welcomed, unwittingly, have contributed to the manifestation of an inconvenient truth.
