LaPlumeDelAigle

A new series of decrees dismissing 297 state agents was signed on February 5, 2025 by the Secretary General of the Prime Minister’s Services. 

This operation, which is part of the contentious phase of the Physical Counting of State Personnel (COPPE) operation, brings to date to 4,324 the number of civil servants removed from the Cameroonian administration.

In an information note signed on 12 February, the Minister of Civil Service and Administrative Reform (Minfopra), Joseph Le, also wishes to point out that the said procedure is in line with the « high directives » of the President of the Republic in the context of the fight against chronic absenteeism of public officials. These disciplinary sanctions were therefore taken at the end of a rigorously conducted administrative process in accordance with the provisions of Decree No. 94/199 of 7 October 1994 on the general status of the State civil service, amended and supplemented by Decree No. 2000/287 of 12 October 2000.

However, any person concerned who considers that they have been unfairly sanctioned may, prior to referring the matter to the Higher Council of the Civil Service, exercise their right of appeal by contacting the competent services of Minfopra, either by filing a request or by electronic means.
