Cameroon to adopt law against tribalism [Morning Call]

The Morning Call

Cameroon plans to introduce laws against tribalism.

The justice minister who defended the text amending Article 241 of the Penal Code in front of the National Assembly, said that the rise in tribalism and hate speech could compromise security and social cohesion.

If the law is passed someone convicted of tribalistic crimes could face one to two years imprisonment and/or pay a fine of up to 3 million FCFA or 5000 USD.

Africanews correspondent Lambert Ngouanfo updates us on the proposed law.
