An enquiry into the controversy surrounding the case of a dead man who passed entrance exams into ENAM has been opened by Prime Minister Philemon Yang.
The name of Ndjomo Milsaints Claude appeared on the final list of successful candidates into the National School of Administration and Magistracy earlier this month.
He had reportedly died before the final phase of the exams.
But he took the first place in his department with an average of 14/20, reports say.
Biya's two children, Brenda and Junior Biya, are among the successful candidates for this session of the exams.
According to La Nouvelle Expression, the commission of enquiry includes people from the PM's Office, Ministry of Public Service, ENAM...
This session of the exams is one of the most controversial, with names added to the initial list by the minister of public service after the publication of results by the director of the institution.

The Governor of the South West Region is reportedly on his way to Nigeria through Ekok purportedly to distribute relief supplies to people he and his government chased from their villages.
According to information reaching me this Tuesday the 19th of December at 12.13 pm, Okalia Bilai is already on his way.
What is certain is that these supplies could well be poisoned gifts and the visit itself a veiled ploy to chase after young people running to safety.
I am sending out this message so that we all begin to make calls and reach out to whoever can stop that visit or cause our lovely people not to meet the colonial administrators who has generally addressed us as dogs.

Paul Kagame granted audience to barrister Akere Muna . Comparable with other factors of leadership that Biya lacks, Akere Muna who declared his candidacy for the post of the President of the Republic of Cameroon. It's on record that the candidacy for the President of African Lawyers association was heavily supported by the present Ghanian President Nana Akufo Addo.
The Ghanian President elect Nana Akufo Addo invited some twenty Head of States, including Barrister Akere Muna of Cameroon and asked him when shall it be his turn to be the President of Cameroon. President Paul Biya who is gradually sidelined by the International community wasn't invited to the installation of the Ghanian President.
The humiliation he suffered in New York when he last attended the last UN General Assembly. President Donald Trump of the United States of America didn't allow Biya to participate in the dinar party offered by him for African Head of States. Barrister Akere Muna has a lot of international recognition amongst the English speaking communities and is the Vice President of Amnesty International.
The building of a seemingly fruitful relationship with the Nigerian President, Buhari Muhammadu has become sour because of the influx of the Southern Cameroon's refugees that number close to 70.000 refugees displaced and resettled in Calabar, Nigeria. President Paul Biya has only attended three meetings at the African Union Headquarters for his thirty five years of ruler ship.
President Theodora Obian Nguima of Equatorial Guinea has ordered the closure of his borders with Cameroon. Other Countries of the CEMAC zone are partially having good working relationship with LA Republique Du Cameroun, except for the Chadian President Eno Idriss Derby who pays allegiance to Biya because the Chadian Petrol passes through Cameroon. The state of Cameroon has been ruined by the syndrome tagged as Biya Camerounese .

Camerounese have done and are doing everything to fuel Anglophone consciousness. In spite of numerous calls from moderate Anglophone leaders for the “two Camerouns” to sit at the table to introspect and chart the way forward, there has been the mistaken belief by some fascist Camerounese that brute violence would do the trick. Till date, some are still under the illusion that sadism and killings are the unique option. SORRY!
One should have liked to see the oneness and indivisibility of Cameroun pragmatically. But truth be told, we see the opposite on a daily basis. What is all the worse, even official rhetoric has not been any helpful.
And so do we hear about “froidement assassinés” these days. When war was declared against Boko Haram, soldiers were either “tués” or “égorgés”. In the case of a war against Anglophones, Camerounese are unanimous that soldiers killing Anglophones are assassinated on the battlefield pursuant to a war they declared.
No-one needs to teach even a first degree imbecile that war means killing; and that there are inevitably casualties on both sides in every war. Under those circumstances, the term assassination is inappropriate generally; much less can it apply to any one side. An elementary notion of warfare is that you kill or you are killed: “kill or be killed” is the military jargon.
Those irrational attitudes only do drive moderate Anglophones into radicalism. And the situation gets more and more exacerbated by the apparent tacit official approval of private unhelpful utterances; and all the worse by official echoing.
It is regrettable that God gave us a land flowing with milk and honey; but we have, through greed and linguistic divide, transformed it into a land flowing with blood and beer. Yet in the hopeless expectation of escaping God’s wrath! Where “Thou shall not kill” has been repealed by a constitutional amendment!
