It is now very clear, certain and obvious that many business,
money for making higher professional Institutes of learning with their cut
throat fees will now run out of business given that with just 50,000 frs cfa,
an average or a normal Cameroonian, to be more precise a North West parent will
gainfully send the child or daughter to a state run University where all the
faculties and professional institutions are fully operational with a staff
strength that has no march in the country.
It must be recall that parents from this part of the country
had suffered for years in the hands of these dubious business men who stood at
nothing to extort from desperate parents who with no hope and lack of adequate
means to send their children to school in other cheap state owned and run universities
in other Regions were subjected to send their daughters or sons to go in for
funny HND courses in obscured higher professional training institution charging
high fees without mercy.
With the coming and the announcement of the full operation of
the University by the Minister of Higher Education Prof Fame Ndongo through her
Vice-Chancellor Prof Tafah Edokat parents heaved a sigh of relief saying “at
last we have been rescued”. The time for revenge has come whether they like it
or not!
Worth noting and by facts, the coming of the Faculties of
Arts, Law and Political Science, Economics and marketing science, to meet the
faculty of science fully there, the teacher’s training institutions, the school
of medicine and nursing, Coltech, HICM, School of transport and Logistics
etc….. Leaves most of the North West based higher professional institutes
adventuring into sphere of business weeping. One even thinking aloud cried
“with all the loans and all these infrastructures where do I go to, for it is
certainly clear that every parent will want to send the child but to where he
will pay 50,000 FRS.
“Guess what? Fees are certainly going to drop, that is why
there is wild publicity and campaign outside! Even those Universities which
claim to be of high standards, one parent cried out, times are hard.
It should not also bit escape your imagination why most of
these institutions are running after UBa for MoUs and why most of them are
proposing to lease their structures to the University of Bamenda to be able to
accommodate her fast growing population certainly for royalties at the end, you
should not doubt!
It is now also very apparently clear that owners of these
money for making professional institutes were the ones blocking the creation of
the University of Bamenda and for it to operate in full capacity.
Another right thinking Cameroonian opined that it is time for
the Bamenda Business man to start thinking of opening factories or transform
their structures into companies than jump into school business because they are
trying to rival or emulate another great educationist.
