“We are very satisfied with our visit to Camtel. This shows the strong relations that exist between my country and Cameroon. We came to Cameroon on a study trip and our school trains its interns on various domains like public management, public contracts and administration. This visit to Camtel falls in line with our training,” Brigadier General Elumba Monga Likumbu Ghislain Myriam Rogers said
“We had to understand the importance of communication ls because the army has two main levers for the success of its operations which are; mobility and communication. Added to these is cybercriminality.
So, there is need for a strengthened collaboration between defence and security forces and telecommunications companies in order to protect communications. Our presence at CAMTEL demonstrate the excellent relationship between our two countries as well as the armed forces of the DRC and Cameroon, he added.
