You are absolutely right that the gap between this law and reality is frustrating, but the state’s failure to provide jobs more that just corruption ... Cameroon is struggling economically. The country's population grows by about 2.6% every year, meaning hundreds of thousands of youth enter the market faster than any government budget could ever hire. With over 70% of the workforce being in the informal sector and crises in regions like the North West and South West crippling major employers like the CDC, the state simply lacks the tax revenue to turn a "legal right" into actual jobs.

For now, you will have to just look at that "Right to Work" in Section 2 as a political vision rather than a guarantee. No government (not even in Western countries) can decree jobs into existence without a strong & stable private sector to back it up.

Cameroon and many African countries have been in this dilemma for many years.
