In a stunning disclosure, Cameroonian journalist Remy Ngono has brought to light that President Faustin-Archange Touadéra of the Central African Republic financed his 2020 electoral campaign with money allegedly embezzled from Cameroon. The revelation points to a cross-border corruption scheme that directly linked the Central African leader to misappropriated Cameroonian state funds.

According to Ngono’s investigation, the operation involved diverting public money from Cameroon’s treasury into Touadéra’s campaign coffers, bypassing legal oversight and raising serious questions about the integrity of the 2020 presidential election in the Central African Republic. The journalist’s findings have sparked outrage among civil society and political observers, who are now demanding a full international inquiry into the matter.
