background
In 1957, the first Cameroonian government under André-Marie Mbida came to power in the French mandate and the first constitution for the French part of Cameroon was enacted. Mbida was initially an employee of Louis-Paul Aujoulat , but then fell out with him. On the advice of the French High Commissioner in Cameroon, Jean Ramadier , Ahmadou Ahidjo , the future dictator, resigned from the Mbida government and provoked a government crisis. In September 1958, Ruben Um Nyobé was killed. In October 1958, Ramadier's successor announced Charles de Gaulle's will to grant Cameroon independence. In 1959, Ahmadou Ahidjo and Michel Debré signed a "cooperation" agreement between France and Cameroon, which continued to secure France's decisive influence.
