Water and Energy Minister, Basile Atangana Kouna, has come under scathing criticism after publishing a list of some 135 recruits into the ministry with only Eight Anglophones and following it up after with another 30 names, most of them from his own Beti tribe.

The Minister, it should be said, had released the list of 135 newly recruited technicians and engineers with Anglophones numbering just eight in the list. While the list of the 135 recruits was still being criticised, the second 30-man list came up, made up of only Betis, Kouna’s tribe.

The recruited technicians and engineers according to a communiqué made public last week, are expected to be trained on the installation of solar panels in some 166 localities across the country.
