You’re fired! Biya sacks Cameroon ambassador to Great Britain and Northern Ireland 0

Nkwelle Ekaney is no longer Cameroon’s High Commissioner to Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In a letter dated October 19, President Paul Biya instructed the Minister of External Relations, Lejeune MBELLA MBELLA, to recall urgently and definitively to Cameroon, the High Commissioner of Cameroon in Great Britain and Ireland, Nkwelle Ekaney.

The Biya letter noted that the British authorities will be informed of a possible replacement of the disgraced diplomat.

According to a source close to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a meeting was held last week between Minister Lejeune MBELLA MBELLA and Nkwelle Ekaney on the decision of the Head of State Paul Biya. No official information is currently available on the reasons for the Biya action.
