Since
the historic\heroic or the patriotic fall of Major General Tumenta and Captain
Tumenta in the central African Republic and the Extreme North of the Republic
of Cameroon respectively in defense of the Nation, while combating terrorism,
tongues around the country has not ceased wagging in appreciation of the great
efforts made by these soldiers who stood by their country and even sacrificed
their lives, on how patriotic they were, the great gap left in their families
and why the Division, their families and the Region in general has to be
compensated for the great sacrifice or lost.
Major Gen Tumenta
It
is not given to any individual, martyrs as they are to have stood firm in peril
amidst all the odd right down into the valley of death to fight for
national\international peace and security. Which is the very obvious reason why
parents of the deceased, their villages (that Babungo & Baba I), their
Division of origin and region has to be compensated dearly.
Captain Yari Emmanuel
Their
sacrifices and achievements in defense of the Nation are enormous and could
possibly in no way be undermined. Their selfless service to the nation cannot even
be better appreciated by the nation other than giving back to that Division in
a special way through appointments and committing the two in prayers at any
devotion for their souls to rest in perfect peace.
Colonel Agha Robinson Ndong
This
call for appreciation and return gratitude from the Head of State commander in
chief of the armed forces President Paul Biya comes from the backdrop of the recent
appointment and installation of Colonel Agha Robinson Ndong on Monday the 14
2016 as commander of the 22nd brigade from Menchum Division that was
greeted with great joy after the Wum incident which saw the death of a biker
stabbed by a military officer which caused chaos, torture and mass arrest of
citizens in that part of the region as compensation.
The
recent act by the Commander in chief of the armed forces in Cameroon President
Paul Biya has caused many quarters and individual to clamor and stand for the
fact that after Menchum’s appeasement, Ngoketunjia Division, the people of
Babungo and Baba I should equally be compensated heavily for haven’t sacrificed
their two sons in the combat against Boko Haram which is a common enemy to every
Cameroonian.
It
should be noted that Major General Tumenta died not only defending Cameroon but
Africa and Captain Yari a Cameroonian also died defending Nigeria after a
powerful rescue mission of Boko Haram victims.
May
their souls rest in perfect peace as the people of the North West Region in
general and Ngoketunjia Division remains expectant from the head of State
President Paul Biya and devoted to these great fallen heroes. “Dulce et Decorum
es propatrie morie” how sweet and
honourable it is to die for ones fatherland, Sheldom Book of verse expounds in
the Poem for the “Fallen” and how hounourable it is also when the nation
recognizes such efforts and sacrifice to spur others into deep patriotism.
