It is believed that the Cameroon government is seeking financial worth of up to 940 Billion FCfa. In order to complete this programme, part of the finalising is being done right now through the IRBD branch of the World Bank, hence leads to a loan of USD 325 Million (approximately180 Billion FCfa)

These are Exim Bank China, Société Générale, Exim Bank India, AfDB and BDEAC, or the Chinese bank ICBC and Deutsch Bank of Spain, Basile Atangana Kouna indicates.
