Maurice Kamto

Maurice Kamto is a Cameroonian politician. He was a member of the International Law Commission of the United Nations from 1999 to 2016. He successfully led the Cameroonian delegation during the negotiations to resolve the matter of Bakassi, a peninsula disputed with neighboring Nigeria. His decisive contribution helped him to be appointed as Minister-Delegate to the Minister of Justice in 2004. He resigned from the government in November 2011.[1]

After resigning from the government, Kamto formed a new opposition party, the Cameroon Renaissance Movement (MRC). A kick-off meeting of his party, merging multiple parties, was prohibited by the government on 13 August 2012.[2]
