Outside Sdf, Cpp, Apf presenters, a chunk of the candidates or their heralds were either poorly dressed- suffocating in party gadgets or were incoherent in their delivery. The leader of Merci party, Feuzeu Isaac in his attempt to define the general objectives which he wants to achieve if elected did not only bury  his head in the scrap paper he used but his address was full of gaps as he spoke with drowsy eyes. His delivery could push a viewer to zap to another station, laugh, sleep off, engage in another discussion or switch off the Tv. Some of the parties lacked “content” and drifted to insulting the regime in power. Hubert Kamgang, Upa candidate based his address on just two objectives; change the legal tender of Cameroon from Fcfa to “um” and “no business with France”. He failed to give the alternative country he will choose as partner if elected president. For comic relief, he displayed the sample of the “new Cameroon bank note” come October 9.Meanwhile, Anicet Ekane of Manidem who was the last to join the race after the Supreme Court decision held his first rally at a visibly empty square in Boumnyebel. He failed to divulge his slogans, term and objectives but opted for “an easy way-out”- insulting the Cpdm government leader and his supporters, referring to them as “witches and wizards.” The diminutive Kah Walla began her campaign in Douala where she has worked for close to 25 years with the laying of a wreath on the tomb of Rudolf Douala Manga Bell, one of Cameroon’s nationalists.

The national bureau president, Yaou Aïssatou said the women “want to plebiscite Paul Biya” in the October poll. According to the secretary general René Sadi the women “play an irreplaceable role” in the party reason why the Cpdm counts on them. On samba Tv, the Nyong et So’o division through the leaders of its cultural and development association, Adenso’o declared Paul Biya as their choice for president, during a meeting held Sunday 18, 2011.Speaking on Saturday’s edition of “Etoudi 2011” on Equinox Tv Douala, the candidate of the People’s Action Party, Pap Hon. Paul Abine (Cpdm defector) who was main guest spelled out his convictions and agenda. He failed to develop a sound and convincing economic plan. He talked of probity in the management of state funds which editorialist Suzan Kala Lobe described as “not good enough” to build a strong Cameroon.
