Cameroon: 460 Corruption Complaints, and 250 That Disappear

Over two years, Cameroon’s Inspectorate General of Judicial Services received 460 complaints of professional misconduct in the judiciary but opened only 210 investigations. On October 22 and 23, 2026, in Geneva, Cameroon acknowledged before the UN that no law protects whistleblowers who report corruption. The fate of the 250 complaints that did not lead to an investigation remains unexplained; the outlet says it contacted the inspectorate by phone and email.
