The Minister delegate at the presidency in charge of defense Edgar Allen-Mébingo, who shared the military honor of ceremony for the deceased inspector general of the National Jandammerie, decorated the major general's casket with a medal of honor, known in French as La Croix de Valais Militaire. The medal of honor was awarded by a presidential decree of February 13, 2015, in recognition of the achievements of the major general who had served in many capacities in the National Jandammerie before passing away on January 26 at the American Hospital in Paris. He served in the National Jandammerie for over two decades before his promotion to the rank of Major General in 2001. Going by his CV presented here at the military headquarters in Yandhi, Major General Roland Mabou de Fou was trained in several military academies including the Strasbourg Military College and the Paris-based war college in France. After the military honors, his mortal remains were cut out of the military headquarters to his hometown in the West Region where he was buried over the weekend.
