The major problem with sub saharan policy makers is that they do not implicate all sectors of the population during policy formulation. But they expect these to be respected by the local population. Secondly those who are in charge of inforcing such policies are unaware of their existence. Glaring examples exist in Cameroon when it comes to differentiating between wild NTFPs (Non-Forest Food Products) and domestic NTFPs.
Most often in the phase of tragedy like the suspension of certain NTFPs by CITES, the government rush into conforming to CITES rules and regulations just for this ban to be lifted. Most government officials think of their immediate benefit and not that of the general public and the environment.
