Pa Achidi Achu Simon former Prime Minister, Head of
Government, Senator Emeritus, one time Senate Bureau member in the Cameroonian
Senate and a political Guru in Cameroon politics in a rather disappointed and
frustrated tune cried to the Publisher/Editors of World Echoes Newspaper and
Watchdog Tribune at his rest house in Yaounde behind ENAM on Sunday the 23rd
of June 2019, after church service that “a whole generation is gone and is
crumbling, the future is bleak and there is no head way if we continue to keep
our children at home for our selfish ends. It will take a decade for us to
recover from the injury we are causing our children. I am an old man going and
have a ready generation to hand over to, who will you hand over your own
generation? To Indian herm smokers, children spoiled by social deviance,
uneducated Cameroonians? My Journalists where are we heading to. It is time we
give a second thought to before we keep for fitting or mud-gagging the future
of our children for whatsoever reason. When Pa and Mama are quarrelling
children must eat and must go to school, must we use children as shields? They
are Angels and must not be tamper with. Any good we do on earth is for
ourselves and any bad we do will hunt us forever, reasons why I am joining my
voice with all the journalists to clamor for effective back to schools this
September 2019 academic year, three years has gone with nothing to ride home
and the fourth school year is coming, in God’s name schools must go, it is a
duty and our responsibility. Thank you for coming to join your voice with mine
so that we can form a formidable force to crusade for effective back to schools
in our two restive Regions of Cameroon.”
Those were the wise words we gathered from almighty Pa Achidi
Achu Simon who did not dabble for a second in his call for effective school
resumption in our two English speaking Regions of Cameroon characterized by the
Anglophone revolution which has crippled the economy, led to the displacement
of over a million man population, the destruction of Properties, human and
material lost which cannot be estimated.
In it all children should not be the victim and should not be
used as victims circumstance which is what Pa Achidi condemned in strong terms
offering to partner with the Press to radicalize the campaign for back to
school, hear him “it is too much even it is what, we should not use innocent
children as bait, God is watching and will punish all of us if we don’t act now
and immediately.”
The senior state man crying for these voiceless Cameroonians
offered himself in exchange for children’s education, appealing and pleading
onto parents to see the importance of their children’s education. Hear him
again, “Education which was our own industry is all gone, our children have too
cross the Mungo to gain education which we have at our doorsteps in our nose
with better infrastructures. God have mercy, look Mr Journalist you guy should
accelerate the campaign, God is on your side, you have all my support and
posterity will judge whosoever is against.
