The Cameroonian Party for National Reconciliation (French: Parti camerounais pour la réconciliation nationale; PCRN or CPNR) is a political party in Cameroon, created on 14 February 2003.[1]
History
The party was created with the collaboration of Albert Fleury Massardine and Robert Kona.[2][3][4] Massardine's son, the current secretary general, is the intermediary between Cabral Libii and the PCRN, in search of a party that will invest him.[5][6]
On 4 January 2024, Cabral Libii is due to appear before the Mayo-Kan Court of First Instance in Kaélé (Far North). At a press conference in December 2023 in Yaoundé, Robert Kona, former civil administrator and founder of the party, accused him of having used the 11 May 2019 meeting in Guidiguis, Mayo-Kani to oust him and take control of the PCRN.[7][8][4][9] He also declared that the PCRN would never invest Cabral Libii.[7][10][11][12]
Its congress announced by Cabral Libii in Kribi in December 2023 was prohibited.[13]
The PCRN is considered the third political force in the country during the 2020 Cameroonian parliamentary election with 5 deputies elected to the National Assembly.[14][15]
The party president is Cabral Libii, elected on 11 May 2019, during the first party congress held in Guidiguis in the Far North region.[16][17] He replaced Robert Kona, founder of the PCRN, who has led the party since its creation in 2003.[18] Since 2018, Anne Féconde Noah has been the party's first vice-president.
The PCRN participated in the legislative and municipal elections of February 2020, and won 5 seats in the national assembly, 7 municipalities, and more than 200 municipal councilors.[19][20]
