CPDM fails to meet target for sale of party cards, extends deadline
The Cameroon People”s Democratic Movement, CPDM, party in a bid to
identity its militants and to raise funds for party activities engaged a
nationwide sale of party and contribution cards from the 14th of
November 2014, an exercise that was to last up till 30th December
2014 prior to the reorganisation of party basic organs due for 2015.
The time given for this exercise is said to
have fallen short of the desired results as the expected number of militants
and money raised through the sale of cards were not met either because
sensitisation of militants was not intensive or simply that militants became
reluctant to buy cards because the activity has not been given due
consideration in recent years. Many say CPDM bigwigs have been used to dishing
out money to militants, and that coming back to ask them to contribute looked
more ironical, and to some this exercise was
going to scare away militants from the party.
A communiqué issued by the party hierarchy
on the 5th of January 2015 extended the deadline for sale of party
cards to the 31st of January 2014 to give ample time for party
officials to meet with militants at grassroot level for more sensitisation and
education so that they should see the need to identify themselves with the
party by buying their party and contribution cards.
