L’obtention du titre foncier par immatriculation directe et indirecte au Cameroun
La terre revêt de nos jours une importance capitale dans toutes sociétés. En Afrique, elle est un bien précieux qui exprime dans une certaine mesure la cohésion sociale et familiale. L’immobilier devient chez et partout ailleurs, le plus grand héritage qu’un père puisse léguer à sa famille. Plus que de l’argent liquide, c’est l’élément principal de l’évaluation de la fortune. La terre étant le premier facteur de développement économique au monde, la propriété foncière est indiscutablement la garantie la plus indiquée et la sureté la plus fiable pour le financement des projets d’investissement par les Banques. C’est dans ce sens que ZAMBO MVENG Samuel Rémi affirmait que: « les questions foncières et domaniales sont la plaque tournante de l’histoire mondiale et du salut »1. Le titre foncier est définit en droit camerounais comme étant la certification officielle de la propriété immobilière2. Il revêt de ce fait trois principaux caractères : d’abord inattaquable et définitif ; (Ce sont ces caractères définitifs et inattaquables qui contribueraient à le rendre intangible).

The difficulties associated with mining in Cameroon are manifold. This is not only due to the impertinence or the insufficiency of texts, but also and especially due to deficits of integrity in the mining value chain in Cameroon. To attract investors in the mining sector, and promote the sustainable exploitation of mineral resources, the State of Cameroon has undertaken many efforts that have resulted in the creation of institutions such as CAPAM and the adoption of the mining code of 2016.The existing institutions and texts do not necessarily alleviate the controversy that this sector arouses in our country. Director General of Sonamines Write-ups abound, such as work of student researchers in the mining sector and the advocacy of civil society (in this case Transparency International, Foder and others) which denounce upstream, influence peddling, favoritism, fraud, corruption, etc. . Downstream, we find in the exploitation, the use of prohibited equipment, the non-recording of the quantities produced, the exploitation without authorization and the non-respect of the allocated spaces. Faced with all these difficulties, the list of which is not exhaustive, the Head of State signed on December 14, 2020, a decree creating the SONAMINES (National Mining Corporation) with mandate to henceforth manage the interests of the State in the mining sector. It is placed under the supervision of two ministries, in particular that of the Ministry of Mines which provides technical supervision and the Ministry of Finance which provides financial supervision. The advent of this decision raises questions: has the advocacy of civil society aroused an awakening of decision makers and the reaction of the Head of State? Does the creation of SONAMINES resolve the value crises within the mining sector in our country? What will change after this decree? Download and read more
