Cameroon’s National Assembly deputy Nourish Foster has announced her transfer from the Parti Camerounais pour la Réconciliation Nationale (PCRN) to the Pacte Social pour la Gouvernance (PSG). The move follows her resignation from the PCRN, marking a shift in her political affiliation ahead of upcoming legislative activities.
Foster, who has served as a member of parliament representing her constituency, confirmed that she left the PCRN to join the PSG, a party that positions itself around social partnership and governance reforms. No further details on the timing of her resignation or the formalities of her new party membership were provided in the announcement.
The PSG, founded in recent years, seeks to promote transparent governance and social cohesion in Cameroon’s political landscape. By welcoming Foster, the party aims to strengthen its parliamentary presence and broaden its appeal among voters who prioritize governance issues.
Political analysts note that party switches are not uncommon in Cameroon’s multiparty system, where legislators often realign themselves in response to evolving policy priorities or strategic considerations. Foster’s move may reflect a desire to align with a platform that better matches her legislative agenda.
While no official comment has been issued by the PCRN regarding Foster’s departure, the party’s spokesperson previously emphasized the importance of national reconciliation in its platform. Foster’s transition to the PSG adds another dimension to the ongoing realignments within Cameroon’s parliamentary factions.
