Biography

[edit]

He comes from Kribi, the capital of Océan.[2]

In 2010, he was the president of the commission for coordinating and supervising the special recruitment of 25,000 graduates in the public service.[3] He was one of the elected members of the central committee of the ruling political party, the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement (RDPC) during the party congress organized on September 16, 2011.[4][5] Also during 2011, he was the secretary general of the Cameroonian Prime Minister's services.[6]

On 4 February 2020, he and Joseph Ngute signed a proposal to reclassify most of the Ebo Wildlife Reserve to logging area. The decision was reverted after a group of scientists sent a letter asking for such.[7] Since 27 April 2023, the area has been reclassified for logging.[8]

On April 17, 2024, he helped create a collaboration between the Cameroonian government and the Research Institute for Development.[9]

On 19 June 2025, he launched phase six of the Programme for the Sustainable Management of Natural Resources in the South West Region—a plan to protect ecosystems in southwest Cameroon, launched in 2006.[10]
