A BLCC-USA Investigative Report
An extensive investigation carried out the Bakweri Land Claims Committee (BLCC) into the identity of Brobon Finex since October 2002 seems to give credence to increasing evidence and allegations being made in Cameroon (even by the Government-owned Cameroon Tribune) that this South African “consortium”, which recently purchased the Tea estates of the Cameroon Development Corporation (CDC), may be a dummy Corporation set up by unscrupulous Cameroonian nationals (with the aid of South African accomplices) to defraud the Cameroonian people.
Shortly after the sale agreement was signed between the Government of Cameroon and Brobon Finex back in October 2002, the BLCC decided to contact the South African company to draw its attention to the fact that the sale agreement had failed to address the fundamental issue of indigenous land rights, particularly in Fako division, and that it was opening itself up to a potential lawsuit in South Africa where the issue of alienated ancestral land rights was a very sensitive issue.
A Needle in a Haystack
Immediately, however, the BLCC ran into an unexpected roadblock: Brobon Finex was untraceable and there was no known contact or other information about the consortium, - not even from South African Trade missions, major Chambers of Commerce in South Africa or the South African Ministry of Trade and Industry!
