Speaker's statement on the death of Hon. Emilia Monjowa Lifaka, MP
21 April 2021
Sir Lindsay Hoyle, Speaker of the House of Commons and Joint Branch President of CPA UK, said:
"The death of Emilia Monjowa Lifaka, who chaired the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, has come as a great shock to all of us.
"She was a doughty parliamentarian in Cameroon - where she was Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly - and in her promotion of the activities of the CPA in Africa and internationally.
"She was someone we looked up to as chair of the CPA – and her presence at our meetings will be greatly missed."
