From Reunifications50th Anniversary in Buea; To Disorder, Open Confrontation and unmanaged Discord Amongst Fons and Chiefs of the South West

* Embezzling Organizing Committee Charged to Render Financial Account *Blames, Accusations, Confusion & Chaos Hostages Cameroon *Fortifying La Republics Grip on S. Cameroon *As Biya Makes Mockery of Secessionist & Opposition *Apologies & Correction of Past Errors Highly Awaited *SCNC Replies very strongly inviting the UN *Fon Angwafor Seeing no Head Way Calls on all to Remain Focused Plain Truth; Wrangles after the 50th Anniversary Celebration of Cameroon’s Reunification *Biya Called to Apologize for Mocking Fons & Foncha, Muna, Endeley, Njua, Um Nyobe etc “They are at least Cameroonians too and merit an iota of Respect”… *Biya Must one day Pay Dearly; Post Reunification Scandal Victims Cry Loud -Revisiting 20th 2014Reunification Scandals; Why NW Fons were Chased, Fru Ndi Denied Audience News about the horrible treatment reserved the SDF chieftain Ni John Fru Ndi and the hand picked North West Fons reaching North West Region has since 20th February 2014 coming from Buea the Regional Capital of the South West Region sparked a whole lot of wander, dismay and disgust amongst North Westerners, not counting the number of lips left wagging in appreciation of why such a poor reservation to the custodians of North West Tradition by both, their December 10, 2010 crowned Fon of Fons in Bamenda and the South West organizing committee of the reunifications who are alleged to have embezzled half of the amount mobilized for celebration. Demand very strongly and out rightly for an open apology, explanations from the Head of State President Paul Biya on why a monument was not erected for Foncha and Ahidjo architects of Cameroon Reunification in 1961, why their request for audience was turned down after keeping them waiting for hours under biting cold and scourging heat for preference only to be given to South West Chiefs later. With the SDF chieftain and the said North West Fons now likened to post reunification scandal victims still to accommodate the mess as they regret aloud “South Westerners hijacked the Reunification celebration”, the North West populaces together with Southern Cameroonian Liberation Activists question what took them to Buea? Before ever being subjected to such a pauper treatment when they knew very well that Biya was acting illegally to legalize a fact which is not founded under Cameroon’s History “a beggarly outing of cause! Many exclaim. As they leak their respective wounds some if not everybody in the Region is cursing them for disgracing Grass fielders because of “gombo” which was not finally gotten even going through all the odds. What a big disgrace and shame? Many murmur saying it is the uncontrollable appetite for money that has landed them to such a big scandal. For Biya to keep the Fons for over four hours and later turn down their request without giving them a dime is humiliating as a good number of the Fons who were leaning on what was to come from his mallet almost trekked back to Bamenda others held to pay Hotel bills forcefully. This action from the Head of State Paul Biya which does not truly resemble him was motivated from a canon of facts as this Reporter gathered in Buea from sources closer to the Civil Cabinet and Presidential Security Unit. Biya tired and feed up with the trillions of complains coming left and right about North West Fons, their Union which is no longer credible, the great Division in their midst and the fact that the Union is now managed by hand picked quarter heads and clandestine chiefs decided to turn down the audience. A continues division amongst the North West Fons and South West Chiefs as it is further magnified by the discord planted by reunification, will fasten Biya’s grip and derail Southern Cameroonians from the original course, which is liberation. News reaching the cabinet, was also that the said Fons were already quarrelling on the amount Biya was to give them, how it will be shared and percentages one was to spare before being accredited. The caricature gift without legs painted in a funny color which does not reflect the grass field, which was offered to Biya, accompanied with lies that it was made out of materials (pillars) gathered from the Seven Divisions that make up the North West Region greatly vexed Biya. Another questionable fact is that the Civil cabinet was bribed by other big Fons not to dare grant asses to the not well constituted delegation of Fons representing the Region because their motive was money and nothing else. Biya in the South West wanted to remain focused and not to be derailed by wayward and Malicious North Westerners who were surely carrying their funny memos as usual to give him head ache for nothing. Finally Biya snubbed and ridiculed North Fons because it was now time for all favors to be tilted to the South West and needed no proposals from them, with Fru Ndi already in their dragnet. In all the displeased masses not very much at their best with what happened for a few who went and disgraced the whole North West call on credible Fons of the Region to pass a sanction vote on wayward and recalcitrant Fons or should not be embarrassed with the new bill that will be promoted for Fons to be elected. As Biya left South West in no better situation, with Chiefs dissociating themselves from the South West Chiefs Union (most especially Fako Chiefs) claiming that bigger chiefs hijacked the ceremony and subjected them to crumbs. Fon Angwfor of Makon First Vice National Chairman of the CPDM cum one of the architects of reunification, being very observant and seeing no head way for Southern Cameroon call on all Cameroonian to be focused and not to be derail with errors of the past. Because those errors were not made by Biya and should or must be corrected by Biya, every leader has an agenda that marches with a vision. Biya as a philosopher King with all the forces that be following normal occurrences and realities in play for the political stability of Cameroon, her welfare peace and unity chose to march forward in accomplishment of his vision 2035 not revisiting things of the past which are not too relevant. So Cameroonian should forget about the past, talk of today and plan for tomorrow. N. West Women in Action; N.

all about 2013 Municipal and Legislative Elections in the North West Region of Cameroon

*How Fallen Mayors are still gnashing their teeth and Leaking Wounds in Desperation wandering if really they have fallen short of their ambition to renew mandate using the same unorthodox means that brought them in 2007 “Shock, the Biggest Shock” a dozen of Mayors around the Country who are still gnashing their teeth’s about the surprising results of the Polls after heavy investments on the investitures and marabous call them better still jazz men have gathered and yet to accommodate. It is surprising and of course very arching to note that with all the assurances and clinging on the same diabolic forces or powers that brought them into Council in 2007 their contracts with the Councils has been terminated abruptly by the impossible God irrespective of the amount of money sprayed to back pedal the natural rule of law and order to restitute and rescue the crying masses from the satanic hands of thieving and Council indebting Mayors. The advent of these Mayors which has been associated to all type of wrongs, needed just Divine intervention for them to be booted out, as these well over 360 Mayors spend time swelling bank accounts through obnoxious and unscrupulous financial transactions to buy back the Mayoral seat after exhaustion. “Time out” as God will have it says the masses to seat tide Mayors “was it their fathers house, to hell with their black magic, most of them will pick papers because all they worked for has been given back to the devil and are left with nothing, judgment time is certainly around”. This is unbelievable but, nothing far from the truth that the regime of black magic Mayors has been toppled by trust worthy and reliable Cameroonians who are coming to absorb the shocks of Council stationed in debts to rescue her from a financial wreck now that government is seeing more reasons to invest in local Councils by pumping well over 5 billion. The war between the in comers and flushed Mayors has not been easy, in the North West Region in particular, even before elections the issue of list leaders almost marred elections pushing actors to go advising that attention then, was to first of all win elections and not who becomes Mayor when victory is not yet at hand. This played favorably for good results in the last Municipal race, just for the results to be proclaimed and stage set for the battle into Council, where Mayors with swollen bank accounts all over the years come to bribe the investiture with chunks of millions to re-impose candidature. In Ndop, Mbombo Abel the Banker, a retired standard Chartered Accountant victoriously survived the riding forces of a feminine hand, very strong of course in the CPDM Party Cecilia Ndi and a Masculine one of Kwenui Joseph alias “Pa Dollar”, Mbappa and Ntoh Daniel. He is finally the recognized Mayor of Ndop Council after all the controversy that surrounded bids of runners up the Council seat at the investiture within the Central Committee. He, being the victor is subjected to a tornado of witch hunting from rivals and pee reasons why he has not been very healthy from the day he was proclaimed Mayor of Ndop Council. Reliable Sources also holds that rivals have gone as far as to Aba Land in Nigeria for him to be eliminated even if just for the thrown to remain vacant for a day. In Nkambe, Ngabi Paul is the New CPDM who thanks to the formidable force put up by Gerald Ngala, Shey Jones and Shey Nfor Musa, kicked out Mayor Mangoh, and Awudu Mbaya’s SDF that has held the Council captive for well over 16 years. In Mesaje, Sammy Ngwatam the treasurer is the new Mayor to rescue the council from the miserable hands of a tide feasted Mayor Nkenda Simon a teacher whose operations in the Council were purely self centered for the past six years. In Tubah, Tanjong Martin is finally the Mayor of Tubah Council after a long struggle reaching out to own turn of the gentleman agreement within the SDF ranks in the Municipality. Prof Abety now in trouble, who would have loved a Bambui Man to become Mayor of Tubah Council to his brother Tanjong who may cause his arrest for half realized and abandoned government contracts in the Municipality. In Bamenda I, Ma Mary from the Regional Delegation of Women Empowerment Bamenda of Ndumu Vincent, not Atanga Nji’s Paul is the Mayor of Bamenda I after all the tussle of who holds honor for the challenge of the SDF Party by the CPDM in Bamendakwe. In Santa; Khan El Roy Moses the retired paymaster general, prophet pastor overseer of the Synagogue House of Prayer Bamenda, father to all the widows in the North West, is the new Mayor of SANTA Council. Thanks to him the CPDM conquered the SDF that has been very strong in Senator Achidi Achu’s Political base. Hear him at installation “why a Man of God as a Mayor? Leaders are chosen by God, I have a mission and a vision which is to manage the Santa Council with the fear of God, thank God today I a Mayor to fulfill God’s work for the Santa People. It is on this note that I also call on other Politician to join Politic so that through the polls we can win and become elected to bring the much needed change Cameroon wants”. Caroline Bi Bongwa Catapulted Mayor of Bamenda I She already has a record as the first ever female mayor in Mezam and would also be celebrated as one of the two CPDM female mayors of the North West Region. She was elected by 31 out of the 31 councilors that make up the deliberative organ of the Bamenda I council. For the first time, the destiny of the people of Bamendakwe lies in the hands of the CPDM and a woman for that matter. Even though the Bamenda City Council Government Delegate Vincent Ndumu Nji hails from Bamendakwe, which may make the Bamenda II council a chouchou to the Bamenda City council, Minister Atanga Nji contribution to the success of the CPDM are not doubted. His triumphant entry to Bamenda I on horse back to celebrate a victory clearly indicates the truism in the political act that gave CPDM the victory. However, Atembang Paul who many saw as the best man of the hour humbled himself to gain the prestigious position of kingmaker. With Caroline Bi Bongwa dusk has settled on the controversy surrounding the selection of mayor and the clannish tendencies that had reached it peak in Bamenda I council area. As Caroline Bi Bongwa puts it, she would work for the interest of the population in order to leave a mark of greatness for the CPDM to show. Bamenda II: Trusted Balick Awah Fidelis is the incumbent mayor and was once again trusted the crown of mayor of Bamenda II. Balick awa stood unchallenged as he succeeded self at the helm of the Bamenda II council. Even though pundits were speculating as to whether Benjamin Fru Ndi would challenge him, it came to past that the argumentative mayor staged a comeback without any difficulties because of giant achievement over that Council, most especially the imposing multi-complex Council chamber one in the North West which is the talk of the day in Bamenda and Cameroon. The movement for the restoration of Mankon nationhood must have been shocked given that Balick enjoys the blessings of Ni John Fru Ndi and the Paramount Fon of Mankon though CPDM given his trappings as mayor. He got 27votes out of 31(3 null and 1 against) to slam a crushing win to meet the same worries such as the distribution of revenue from markets around Bamenda, management of parks etc. Bamenda III: Fonguh Cletus Gets Own Mandate Fonguh Cletus succeeded late Prince Amandou Pius as mayor of Bamenda III after the later kicked the bucket. Pundits predicted that Fonguh’s chances of becoming mayor were on the balance following his managerial savvy. Yet it came to past that he finally picked the crown of mayorship given that he enjoys the blessing of the Fon of Nkwen and that of the investiture given his achievements. Expectations are high as to whether his orientation will revolutionize to measure late Prince Amandou’s level. Bafut: Langsi Abel Breaks Myth Langsi Abel is the sitting mayor and he recently demystified the notion that “no one has ever succeeded himself as mayor of Bafut”. Before September 16, 2013 public opinion in Bafut placed him high. And on polling day, just picked got the needed support to succeed self at the helm of Bafut council. Langsi Abel remains a masterpiece when it comes to transparent management. Mayor Langsi was fabulous installed on the 30th of November 2013 Bali: Ajong Augustine Enters into Nwanyalla’s Shoes He is the new mayor of Bali council. He is the section President and was voted unchallenged even though others who had earlier manifested their interest ended up devastated given that party hierarchy could not favour them. With Raymond Nwanyalla now history, the new man to pilot the affairs of the Bali council is Ajong Augustine. Bui Division Kumbo: Njong Donatus Earns Fourth Mandate It once seemed like Njong Donatus Fonyuy wouldn’t be mayor for life but earlier last week, councilors of the Kumbo council gave him another mandate. It wasn’t a surprise that he was again voted mayor of Kumbo for another term. Njong Donatus Fonyuy, the no-nonsense mayor of Kumbo council has again won but this time he was challenged even though many thought his bid could not be challenged. It came to past that Njong’s challenger had 8 votes. He has been there for close to 17 years and he is being celebrated for his numerous achievements. After all, Njong remains the most talk-about mayor in the North West Region. Nkor: Wache Francis Wins Big With Shey Kume the CPDM incumbent mayor being booted out alongside the CPDM in Noni sub division by the SDF, Fonyuy Francis Wache was elected mayor of Nkor council. Wache’s experiences as a perfect journalist coupled with his know-how at CEFAM are an asset for the municipality. Francis Wache was voted in a highly contested election. With Francis Wache heading the Nkor council pundits say the CPDM may likely sink into the doldrums in PM Yang’s constituency. Elak-Oku: Ngum Jerome Creates the Unexpected He is a force to reckon with given his aptitude in handling administrative, developmental and financial matters. It is also his development prowess that pushed the councilors of Oku to place their trust in him by giving him a second mandate. The mayor in office in Elak-Oku council, Ngum Jerome has set the pace through his achievements. Allegedly three contenders were waxing to face Ngum Jerome in the race including his second deputy mayor yet the councilors demonstrated their loyalty in him to vote out the newcomer. In Oku, the CPDM machinery was hooked when they wanted to impose and impostor as mayor. Allegedly, majority of the councilors threatened to walk over to the SDF if their choice will not be accepted. Jakiri: Jaff Romanus Makes Spectacular Comeback With the America wander talkative CPDM mayor of Jakiri Shang Lawrence haven been vomited out in Jakiri, Jaff Romanus, the one time dynamic SDF mayor is the name on every lip. Jaff Romanus commonly known as “Roman” by the populace was voted by acclamation on Thursday September 17, amidst joy and fanfare. This workaholic former mayor who is a professional pig farmer, a development oriented giant and man-of-the people took over the council keys from the man he handed the same keys to in 2007. Jaff Romanus’s spectacular comeback into Jakiri council attracted hundreds to be witnesses to the beginning of a new way for the people of Jakiri. It was the dynamic Nsekie Theophile, SDO for Bui who thrilled the over 1000 man-crowd with African proverbs before prescribing peace and development to the mayor elect. Nkum: Suila Aruna Kidze Stages Own Jumpstart Formerly, Suila Aruna Kidze was one of the deputy mayors in Nkum council. He created the unexpected when he was voted to enter into the shoes of his former boss. He has been turning round the corridors of power for the past 17 years, patient dog-like, he has at last been handed the fattest borne. Expectations are high that his experience in the council will be an asset as he takes over the management of the council. The most interesting thing about Aruna is that he is soft-spoken but very intelligent when it comes to introducing new orientations. But since development is not an item that has been hanged, Aruna will have to demonstrate his worth as a graduate. Even though his candidature for mayor was challenged, Suila Aruna won brilliantly. Mbiame: Fonyuy Fidelis Dictates Own Law He is the incumbent mayor and was again given the unflinching support to head the Mbiame council for a second mandate. He created the unexpected when first rejected his nomination by arguing that some councilors lately accused him of being an absentee landlord. On bended knees, the councilors begged him and he used the opportunity to impose his own deputies. The councilors accepted his choice of deputies and his team was voted by acclamation. One thing is clear that Fonyuy Fidelis will continue to administer the Mbiame council by proxy but the difference will be that he has competent deputies, thus prospects of succeed are high. Momo Division Andek: Awetua Samuel to Surface as Mayor With the absence of the incumbent CPDM Aghogo Johnny not featuring on the list of councilors, Awutia Samuel has surfaced as the mayor of Andek. Even though many say he is a newcomer, popular opinion says he is a system’s man and has the capacity to instill development efforts in Andek. Considering the controversy that surrounded the Andek council, Awutia Samuel is expected to instill hope and fosterdevelopment efforts to gain more popularity in that municipality. Mbengwi: Mbamuku Nduku Beatrice Gets Ama’s Pass Note She is a woman of substance they say reasons why she was on September 16 catapulted enter history books as the first female mayor in Momo Division. Even though many thought Sanji Joseph was also a viable candidate for the job, Mbamuku Nduku Beatrice caught the admiration of councilors given the talent she embodies. As such, allegedly, she enjoyed the Ama Muna support which is an asset for her to go places as mayor. Mayor Batibo; Tanjuh Frederick Emerges Strongest Tanjuh Frederick is not a man to pigeon-hole with given that he proved his worth when Tenoh Lawrence was wrapped in the communal stamp saga. Even though Frederick challenged councilor Weriwum who was invested by the party, Tanjuh Fred got the support of majority of the councilors to be voted mayor. More so, he has the backing of the population given that he was very worthy when Tenoh was napped in the communal stamp scandal. Tanjuh Fred has been the first deputy mayor for Batibo and has demonstrated his strength and leadership qualities. He enjoys the support from the youth and is likely going to be a good mayor given that he had proven his worth when the mayor was napped in the stamp saga. Babessi: Chah Isah Buba Bounces Back in CPDM Colours He was the pioneer SDF mayor Babessi council and since a good player never lacks a team, he resurfaced as the head of the CPDM council list for Babessi. Given his achievements as the first mayor of this municipality, he was on September 16, 2013 voted to head the Babessi council for the second time. Popular opinion in Babessi holds that he is the right man in the right place given his trappings as mayor. He left an indelible mark of greatness when he constructed the council chamber with funds collected locally. It is for this reason that he was again elected to head the council. Balikumbat: Wasum Augustine Unbending Pillar He is the incumbent CPDM mayor. Seemingly Awasum had no serious challenger and was 85% sure to succeed self as mayor of Balikumbat for a second mandate. Wasum Augustine emerged victorious again to be the frontliner to oversee development efforts in Balikumbat. This educationist enjoys the support of a greater number of councilors given that he has a soft-spot for development and has been doing it. He is the man of the moment in Balikumbat. Menchum: Wum: Dinghabong Anthony Enters Njukwe Charles Shoes He is the YCPDM Section President and head of the council list. He is the youngest Mayor so far in the whole Republic with skills and abilities to speed up the development of Wun. This is sourced from the prolific way he has been managing the youth Section of that locality. Being very ambitious and was almost voted once as the National youth Section President leaves much in await from him and his marching forward spirit. Zhoa:Tem Peter to Succeed Ateh Jonas Tem Peter is a business man and a man of the people given his involvement in Credit Union activities. He is a force to reckon with when it comes to developmental issues and he is the mayor elect for Zhoa council. Even though he had four contenders, the reason that majority of them are non-residence in Fungom gave him an upper hand. However, Akein Donatus alias Menchum, is another futurist who will work hand in hand with the mayor elect. Benakuma: Nnum Ihimbru Elias is the new mayor of Benakuma a part time lecturer at the University of Bamenda. He happens to be the people’s choice Mayor; he picks the crown from the former who had grown notorious to the dislike of councilors and even the public. Haven’t been Essimbi youth Association’s president, and being a pragmatist in character, actions and not words will surely be his watch words. Nnum naturally is loved for being calm, level Headed, honest and transparent in all he does. Being a “book man”, currently on his PHD thesis, the Council and the people of that Municipality should be proud of having a genuine intellectual at the Head of the Council Presidency. Bravo & good Luck into your Function Mr Lord Mayor Boyo Division Belo: Tosam Beranard Maintains Statuesquo His reelection was not a surprise given that Tosam Bernard has a bulk of experience in council issues given his long stay as SDF mayor for Belo. He succeeded self at the helm of Belo Council. He was again confirmed as the landlord to complete the numerous development programs he started. Tossam in Belo is the people’s National anthem, a Modern Council Chamber they are celebrating joyously inside, road network infrastructures, water etc Njinikom: Chah Terrence Springs Surprises He is popular and well known in his municipality as Terry Boy. He was voted on September 16 to enter into the shoes Chiato Njinikom messiah wore who did not feature on the council list. Chah Terrence may not be known in far off places but in Njinikom, he is being likened to Farfre in Mayor of Casterbridge given that he has development thoroughness that is rare in many politicians. Given his leadership qualities and his workaholic nature, he was preferred by the investiture of the SDF party. Terence’s works at Progressive comprehensive High School Bamenda may be accountable for the recognition vested on him by the people of Njinikom. Fundong: Ndang Denis the Fore Runner He is a diehard CPDM militant and has been very consistent in molding the CPDM party in Fundong. Ndang Denis is the man in-charge of fostering all efforts in the municipality as mayor. His leadership qualities can never be pigeon-hole with. He is surely going to make the difference. Fonfuka: Gwei Philip on Wanlo’s Seat He was formerly the 1st Deputy Mayor to Senator Wanlo John when he was mayor of Fonfuka. Gwei Philip is a man who has already proven his worth in council management. He has been handed the baton to ensure the development of the people of Bum sub division. Donga Mantung: Nwa: At Last Dr. Ngomfe Loma David Validates Own Mandate Dr. Ngomfe Loma David was the incumbent CPDM mayor and hails from Mfumte area. He was voted unchallenged as the mayor of Nwa council. His trappings as mayors have been laudable yet face a lot of challenges from within for uncorrected lots. At last Dr. Ngomfe Loma David was trusted and handed a full term mandate given that he took over the mayorship of Nwa after the demise of Yakabong Paul. Pundits had feared that what transpired in July 2007 in Nwa may repeat self in Nwa yet it came to past that councilors of Nwa council reaffirmed their trust in the incumbent mayor. Misaje-Mbgata Sammy Replaces Nkenda Simon Sammy Mbgatta Nforkemba is the CPDM section President and he is the mayor elect of Misaje council. He replaces Nkenda Simon as the mayor of Misaje. This former Municipal Treasurer for Belo and Nkambe councils hails from Bebekette. Even though the Mbessa conclave gave Nkenda the much needed support, the councilors of Misaje council backed Sammy Mbgatta who also benefitted from the largess of the Central Committee of the CPDM. Sammy equally during this period enjoys the support of Minister Fuh Calistus and other local party officials. He is a community mobilizer and has God given charm that makes a good leader. Given his experience in council management systems, Sammy is expected to move mountains in fostering development efforts in that municipality. Nkambe-Ngabir Paul Bantar Enters Mangoh’s Shoes With the SDF haven been bundled out obnoxiously, elections of the next mayor of Nkambe council was highly expected to produce the person with capabilities who will enter into Mangoh’s shoes. He is the Section President and hails from Nkambe village. His being there as Section President is not by luck or error but by merit. However, it is Ngabir Paul planted the CPDM in Nkambe given his thoroughness he exercised. Ngabir Paul will certainly make a good mayor given that he is jam-packed with experiences in project writing and his legacies at the helm of CamCCUL and BAPCCUL speaks volume. Ngabir Paul is one of those who have sacrificed a lot for the party to grow. Even though four others had shown interest in the mayoral position, Ngabir Paul Bantar emerged as the favourite for the position. Ako: Akio Augustine Springs Back Having beaten the CPDM, the SDF will run the Ako council for the next five years except otherwise. However, in Ako seemingly three contenders have expressed their intentions for the position of mayor. Akio Augustine Abe is former mayor and hails from extreme lower Mbembe. Implicitly, he was voted unchallenged as the new mayor of Ako council given that enjoys the support of other SDF elite politicians of Donga Mantung Division. He is credited for purchasing a council hilux, a truck and constructed the Ako grandstand which for six the CPDM run council helped to destroy in just six years. Ndu: Bunyui Emmanuel for the Blues Eight contenders are said to have submitted applications for the mayoral position in Ndu council. However, David Karngong Nfor the incumbent was not favoured even though no doubts have been casted whether he performed well or not but surely was barred due to his age which many think he has to retire. His trappings at the helm of Ndu council have attracted a lot of admirations that earned him numerous awards. However, Bunyui Emmanuel was voted mayor while Martin Fon Yembe was voted 1st deputy mayor. Indicators abound that the mayor is working in close collaborations with his deputies. The mayoral position of Ndu seemingly paddles within one cycle given that DK Nfor took over the Ndu council from Late Pa Bunyui Jonathan. Coincidently, DK Nfor is married to the junior sister of late Pa Bunyui. It should be noted that the new mayor of Ndu is the son of the late Bunyui Jonathan (the late workaholic mayor of Ndu). Besides, he is also a retired educationist whose community endeavours could easily be diagnosed through the Wowo Community College and how he interacts with others. Tubah; Rule of Law Reinstated Mayor Tanjong Installed, Differences Buried for Dev’t Mayor Tanjong Martin Installed at Last inside Tide Security Amidst all the stationed threats and amplified contradicting propaganda, sprang wild around Tubah Municipalities by rustics and town criers fined tuned by holders of gullible and misleading instincts. Coming from a free, fair and a transparent Election of Mayors on the 16 of October 2013 all over the Republic in the well over 400 Councils areas with handing over seeing effect on the spot, Tubah Council like many other Councils witnessed one but results were later contradicted with pretext that respectively they were invested and tactfully voted out by Councilors. Which to them was violation of decisions taken by Party hierarchy? The situation was made worst or exacerbated where Party hierarchy had to step in out rightly to declare baseless the sanctioned votes passed on their candidate Mayors, I am here making reference with precision to the Tuah Council’s Case where after free and transparent elections where well over 26 councilors out of 35 passed their sanctioned vote on the out gone Mayor, Ni John Fru Ndi National Chairman of the SDF came in on invitation by unhappy Bambui youths who took to the street in disorder that their invested Mayor from Bambui who gave the SDF the much needed victory in the Municipality was technically voted out. Fru Ndi at the scene fanned flames of the situation, denying all the decisions of the ballot saying they were baseless and cannot be above decisions taken by the highly constituted able body of his investiture. Making things very complex and worst for the Administration who saw the rule of law and order heavily tampered with, for an elected official Tanjong Martin to be elected under free, fair and normal conditions and is denied installation for one or two flimsy reasons. Basing consideration on rules and regulations governing elections in Cameroon that were well applied during the election of Mayor Tanjong Martin the Administration on no note hesitated further to have the New Mayor of Tubah Council installed amidst tied security with the people accepting to burry their differences and work for the Development of Tubah. Enters the Mayor Palaver & how investiture was tricked by Mayor Tanjong and Fellow “How Tanjong seized power” Mayor Tanjong Martin and fellows, knowing fully well that it was a Bambili Man’s turn to be Mayor following the rotating rule of Mayoral attributions in the Council area made up of Four villages and knowing fully well that the investiture as usual very bias will invest another person with special considerations to favors, switched on to his ever unhappy councilors from whom he saw favor and support. Which he masterminded until Election Day and even during the Pre-session held by the representative of the investiture Hon Nchida Forbi Simon where no signs could be deciphered of a plot to sanction the decision of the investiture through a counter nomination for elections to prove the hierarchy of the SDF Party wrong. Making it through the ballot Mayor Tanjong Martin and fellow out smarted rivals who had now to cling on unfounded bases for support.

THE BRAZEN FALSIFICATION OF HISTORICAL DATES IN CAMEROON S BUEA REUNIFICATION CELEBRATION

20/02/2014 THE BRAZEN FALSIFICATION OF HISTORICAL DATES The Republic of Cameroon has persistently falsified the historical dates of Southern Cameroons. Specifically, the 11th February and 1st October are the casualties. Two techniques were employed in the falsification exercise. The first maintained the date, but substituted the event, the example of which is the 11th February plebiscites, replaced with an irrelevant Youth Day. Meanwhile, the second technique suppressed both the date and its related event, the example of which is 1st October. The 1st October date has been lying in obscurity for half a century, until the impulsion of circumstance, when President Biya referred to it at their independence Jubilee on 1st Janauary 2010. The importance of correctly matching events to their historical dates cannot be overemphasized. It has the advantage of giving political weight to the related state. Moreover, it also establishes the counter-balance of “equal status” to other independent states, regardless of whatever territorial, demographic and economic disparities. Conversely, the misplacement of dates and events plunges the disadvantaged state into a psychologically subordinate relationship, which over time leads to Annexation. As we shall demonstrate, the goal of the Republic of Cameroon right from inception was undoubtedly to annex the state of Southern Cameroon. This was to be achieved by tactically manipulating her historical dates and events, irrespective of the reality of a separate independence, The phraseology of the Plebiscite Question of “Do you wish to achieve independence by joining” whomever, prioritized acceding to independence as the precursor of the joining, without which there would be no such eventuality. Thus the affirmative Plebiscite vote represented ipsofacto the quassi achievement of independence, pending only the endorsement of the decision of the people by the competent UN Organ. Subsequent to the resounding UN approval are three pieces of further evidence, which guided the consolidation of the independence? Firstly, there is the UN provision in Resolution 1608 for a post plebiscite international conference, which would have been inappropriate, except to deal with the challenge of federalizing independent states. Secondly, the existence of the UN-ordained neutral name of Federal united Cameroon Republic is indicative of an envisaged post-independence federalization of the two Republics of Southern Cameroon and the Republic of Cameroon. Thirdly, the UN designation of the 1st October independence date, which the population effectively consummated, marked the complete fulfillment of the impendence process of Southern Cameroons. In light of the foregoing we, conclude that whatever gymnastics the Republic of Cameroon has played could not alter our historical dates, nor diminish our status of a fully independence state, only seeking sovereign recognition. 20/02/2014 THE DECEPTIVENESS OF REUNIFICATION After listening to many comments on reunification it is clear that both the general public and the intelligentsia alike are grossly uninformed of the meaning of terminology. May it be understood once and for all that reunification is not the colloquial joining of political entities that joining is by federalism. The example is the UN – framed appellation of federal united Cameroon Republic for the envisaged new joint Country It is also the reason the Republic of Cameroon under their first Republic adopted the prefix of “Federal”, to arrive at the Federal Republic of Cameroon. The pseudo Federation was not the initial UN-proposed constitutive model, but a watered-down version. Yet, it underscored the concept of federalism as the modus operandi of joining Independent states. It follows that there was never a historical reunification, on the foundation of which the purported Buea Jubilee could have obtained credence. The Buea Jubilee is nothing more than a gigantic deception, designed as usual to facilitate maintaining the stranglehold of annexation on the state of Southern Cameroons. Apart from the inexistence of a historical basis, Reunification is eternally inapplicable to the relationship between the two countries. Intrinsically, the phenomenon is contradictory, incompatible, and mutually exclusive with every situation of separate independences. That is to say there can never be a reunification without a prior joint independence, wherein is inherent the unification phase of a single Independence coin. Independence unifies the constituents of a polity to obtain the abstract noun of unification, from which reunification might proceed, in the same way that a prior “application” is required as the precursor of any “ re-application”. With unification inherently the opposite side of any given Independence and is, therefore, internal to each state, and not an international affaire, the two separately Independent Countries, can never share either unification or reunification. However, it is not categorical that every instance of unification would result in reunification. It only occurs when an Independent state breaks up as a result of either a civil war or external aggression. In essence, the break down of an Independent state signifies the fracture of its unification phase. It is the occasion of the two or more parts returning to their initial oneness that would constitute a supreme act of reunification. In contemporary times, the 1990 reunification of Germany, symbolized by the demolition of the infamous Berlin Wall, is the most recent case in point. The unified Germany was broken up in the aftermath of World War II. May it be made abundantly clear that even if the two Cameroons went to war against each other and later returned together, they would never enjoy reunification The returning into the original oneness would maintain the initial distinctiveness of the respective states, for a re-federalization and not a reunification. Federalism, which results from uniting Independent states, is dramatically different from reunification, proceeding from the verb of having once been a unified state through a joint Independence. In conclusion, there was never, and shall never be an authentic reunification between the two Cameroons. Therefore, the recent Buea affaire is a tourist venture permissible to anybody, who wishes to enjoy the best panoramic scenery in Africa. If President Biya thinks he can still use it to becloud the vision of the People of Southern Cameroons, he has it all wrong. That time has long past, and we will halt at nothing short of a separate sovereign state. The successive regimes of the Francophone state should have thought twice before attempting in 53 years to asphyxiate a UN-authorized Independent state in contemporary times.

Condemnation of False Accusation & False Alarm:

Condemnation of False Accusation & False Alarm: CPDM Did not Appoint Tabefor Aloysius Vice Principal in CCAST And even if it was CPDM was the post of a Vice Principal better than Principal? Tabefor Aloysius Amungwa was not appointed Vice Principal because of his deditude to the CPDM. He was appointed out of merit following Cameroon’s appointment ordinance. And what is even wrong belonging to a Party? Appointments are done most of the time in Cameroon following government discreation and influence in some fields. But with the case of Education, just like Medicine, appointments are not done “Parazar”, I must emphasise here that, Tabefor Aloysius was appointed Vice Principal in CCAST Bambili to pioneer controls and exercise management over the domitary, the infirmary, the science and computer Laboratory and the Library after managing the Senior Descipline Master Position well to the attention of detractors and blacmaillers who hurriedly went to the internet to declare conjecturing and provokating statements that his appointment was influenced by the CPDM. The same CPDM I have never seen him in it’s outfit or at her ceremonies for the past seven years now! To the attention of enemies of progress and prophets of doom, doing all in their best to tarnish the hard earn reputation of Tabefor Aloysuis, who do not want Bambui people to progress, that he stopped Partisan Politics seven years ago. For somebody to attribute or link his appointment to the CPDM is banal and litigating why not warranting Court actions. People should not just write damaging and make unnecessary comments over the internet because they have access to or are ourightly excited, for it belittles. To say Aloysius was appointed based on Party leaning or standing means, the author of the said diabolic Letter or article, as he may claim to be a conditional statement, is questioning the authority and the decision of the Minister. Whether propagators of false rumor and decipators of false alarm like it or not Tabefor Aloysuis has been appointed Vice Principal in CCAST and will soon be made Principal God being his helper. Surely the author of that article had a hand in the attempt of Aloysuis’s life some two months ago. Security is on the alert on those Bambui subjects who are out there to spray poisonous information to deter peace, Unity and progress in the Community. The Voice that speaks the Truth and Nothing but the Truth which is beater.

Theme "THE POWER OF CULTURE TO CREATE A BETTER FUTURE" By Tamukong Roland Angong Subject; “ Traditional Dances”, “Cry Dies”, “Shrine Visitation”, the Mystery, Symbolism & Effervescence there enshrined for Collective Communal Peace through Adorations, ritual rites & Libation Pouring to Appease Ancestors in Cameroon, the Grass field Region to be Precise

Preface Culture and Tradition owes origin to the Biblical Mission and intension of God Making Eve from the Rib of Adam dating billions of decades ago. The history of creation brought about multiplication, procreation, growth movement, the change of behavioral pattern and attitude. These various characteristic features, in the history of Man’s advent, activities and the speedy growth of the world into a Global Planetary Village in a fast growing scientific World, plagued by natural and supernatural factors, has given each group of people, persons, a Village, a Division, a Region, Country and Continent something which is peculiar and particular about her, which distinguishes one from another, This is influenced by the immediate environment of the people, history and Religion. These aspects clearly define culture to be the way of life and operation of a particular people “Cultina”. Tradition are some enshrined values in a people that governs the routine lives in a particular setting (I am talking here of Traditional rites, dressing and certain act demonstrated or exhibited). Talking about how culture and Tradition of a people can influence Global and collective peace for a better future is an issue very paramount. With special attention, looking relatively and collectively into the ways of life stationed and fashioned by a people and a class of individuals which is very vast. Pushes us to narrow down this broad base subject to a specific case Study, that is the North West Region of Cameroon known as the grass fields harboring the Tikar ethnics group who has as major activities Farming, livestock breeding, death celebrations, “cry dies” and gun firing, Divination, incantations and the pouring of libations, rituals and sacrificial offerings to adorn the gods, adoration of shrines, sacred forest and the glorification of their Fons etc. It should be noted that these acts, activities and exercises are practiced and performed to enable the individual, the family or the community have a “quiet sleep” as it is always referred, which means exercises that vindicates one of maledictions and ill luck or showers one with abundant blessings, a village with great harvest or protection from the trespass of any evil force we are talking here most especially of the mysteries that surround cultural festivals, annual Traditional dances, the pouring of libations and ritual killings. In the North West Region it is a common established fact that children are born and grow to inherit predicaments, maledictions and curse or suffer from evil spells from parents and great grand parent’s acts belonging to a particular secret society or for not performing regularly some routine traditional rites in the assembly of notables or elders, for receiving an unlawful payments, defiling the gods or not adorning them etc. As such life span is not guaranteed in the hands of the “unknown circumstances”. One can only be freed of or vindicated off if and only if he or she performs or fulfill their traditional commitments and obligations in the village with the ancestors and the gods of the land. Life span then is guarantee and long life assured through meeting up with the needs of Cultural and traditional exigencies enhancing individual and communal peace for a collective life that assures and sustains global peace for a prosperous future. The tree of traditional, cultural collectivity and global peace in Africa as a whole and Cameroon in particular, holds that a man’s culture is his roots and his tradition is his identity. Meaning here that once a man’s roots are not deeply rooted in tradition, through routine ritual rite honoring, poring of libation, adorning of the gods and offering sacrifices, he has no base and will be of no worth to the society in terms of enhancing and sustaining collective actions oriented towards harnessing and promoting peace for a joyous end. Peace normally should start from individual actions, to family interaction, village communion, solidarity, social cohesion, understanding, unity and love. Culture and tradition once tampered with can cost society a lot. An aspect of it is “Annual Traditional Dances”, rituals and adoration of gods, in Awing for instance, a village in the North West Region of Cameroon, simply because the people ignored routine rites to appease the gods of Lake Awing, a gaseous disaster occurred that claimed a good number of lives approximately 1500. Today with, routine traditional ritual exercises, for the gods of that Lake, there are no more hazards and the village is living in absolute peace. In Big Babangki Kedjim Keku where the Fon was roasted alive by the people for defiling and out rightly abusing culture and tradition, a sacred ritual dance was conducted which assembled all sons and daughters of this village with the new Fon on the throne to cleanse, appease and bless her subjects off the “bad air” that surrounded the village atmosphere and maledictions following her subjects where ever they go after that murderous act for the collective welfare of the village. In Bafut village, the “Abenefor” just like in Babungo Village, Bambalang, Nso where you have the Ngonso Festival and Bambui where you have the “Mandele” Sacred dance, all are annually performed routine act or dances that follow a particular secret chronograph reflecting their respective cultures and collective ways of pacifying and adoring their gods. Once these exercises are conducted blessings over flow the community, her subjects receive salvations from the hands of their ancestors absolutely, hence a comfortable atmosphere for social welfare is enhanced and that black Pa in the village sleeps and gets up well. Most of these sacred dances came about in the early days introduced by founders of those Fondoms and Kingdoms who had to fight, conquer and defend ones ethnic or clan from evasion or aggression. As such the dances were like a thanks giving mass offered to the “fallen” in the exercise for keeping them alive and enabling them go through the hurdles of such an encounter. The exercise witnesses the roasting of fowls, the slaughtering of goats, cows and ships. End

Fru Ndi's Son Has no Plans of Becoming Bda II Mayor

Ni John Fru Ndi's last son, Achu Benjamin has won council primaries in Bamenda II council. Achu Benjamin Fru Ndi who is also private secretary to the father won the council primaries in the Ntarinkon Council ward to contest in the upcoming municipal elections as councilor on SDF ticket. Allegations are rife at that Achu Benjamin Fru Ndi is likely the next mayor of Bamenda II. Achu Benjamin Fru Ndi who decided to step into the father's shoes by taking part in active politics has been described as being dynamic and level-headed as well. Mores so, it is worth mentioning that Benjamin has been very active in the SDF accompanying SDF chieftain in all his major political outings. During the 23rd Anniversary of the SDF last May 26, 2013, Benjamin led a powerful delegation of youth during a match-pass that attracted alot of admiration from the crowd. Analysts had since then predicted that Benjamin would run as Mayor of Bamenda II, yet the speculations have come to pass that he won the council primaries this week at the Nsa’mukong Hall with 61 votes away from his rivals with 47 and 41 respectively. During the May 26 celebration in Bamenda, he told Journalists that it is time for youths to take part in the democratic process of this country. This, he has not only been apt in preaching but has moved into the stage by winning the primaries. Benjamin who pundits have long predicted as Fru Ndi's political successor is likely to bring surprises in the upcoming elections. If vote as Mayor, he is likely to be the youngest mayor in the history of the SDF and Cameroon. Benjamin's action we gathered has inspired many youths nationwide who now want to enter into active politics. Accosting Benjamin at the end of the historic election exercise, he observed that he has no plans of becoming the Mayor of Bamenda II. But is rather interested in the development of Bamenda, that he wants to be at the centre of action to contribute his own quota to the development of his Municipality. According to him Councils are drifting more toward decentralization and autonomy. So it is imperative that these Council should be able to put projects in place and also be able to mobilize financial resources to carry out these Projects. This he noted, is a role he believes he can play very well and ease the work load on the Council and Mayor. And even if he were interested in piloting the affairs of the said Bamenda II Council, that would have only been a dream not to come through in the advent of the award winning Mayor Balick Awa Fedelis’s era. Who for seven years has worked so very well and devoted that the people of his Municipality now see him their God send Mayor. To further the voted Award three years round winning best Mayor of the years in Cameroon further plants Mayor Balick Awa deep down the heart and bosom of the National Chairman of the Social Democratic Front SDF Ni John Fru Ndi who most probably will stand behind him for his son who has better chances ahead or should complete elementary Political training before shouldering such a load. Never the less Ben Fru Ndi’s attempt is a giant stride commendable by history that will score in it’s records that at least if Fru Ndi is leaving the stage now, he has a Political successor.

“Twin Elections 2013, Really a Level Playing Grown for all? When all is Stage Managed by the CPDM” Teche Nyamusa Parliamentary Hopeful Mbengwi

For us - the SDF and the genuine opposition to continuously participate in elections controlled by CPDM agents who are themselves part of the exercise, seriously questions our sincerity to fight for real change and succession of government in Cameroon. History has not shown where a dictator has willingly relinquished power. Considering Africa: South Africa, Ghana, Kenya, Senegal and others -relatively smooth change of governments have not been achieved by mere benevolence of the incumbents. No,often pensively unanimous agreements were arrived at before general elections, drafting of the constitution, good governance particularly elections monitor and organization. However traumatizing in Cameroon, Mr. Paul Biya the president of Cameroon who is also the national president of the CPDM ruling party is in charge of all facets of government. He controls completely the elections management body (now ELECAM).The body’s (ELECAM) personnel, appointed by the presidency are predominantly CPDM frontline militants who brandish after-appointment resignation letters from CPDM. Cameroon’s democracy is government without separation of powers: executive, legislature, and judiciary are controlled by one man - the president, Paul Biya. He appoints members of the legislature, the executive president, Biya is the president of the higher judicial council which outfit promotes, transfers and sanctions… judges and magistrates. Court cases of particular interest to the president or his party CPDM are tainted. Results of elections in Cameroon are known before polls day. The SDF has persevered for over 23 years to see whether Biya/CPDM can change to permit good government and a level electoral field to no avail. Thus an informed opinion poll which I fully ascribe to hold that Cameroon’s genuine opposition should boycott further elections, for even after the super trumpeted claims of advancement in electioneering and plans for the country through good governance to emerge from poverty (vision 2035), the most recent one - the pioneer senatorial was as usual a mockery and provocation of Cameroonians in general. We think that the genuine opposition should instead campaign for good laws which will be independent of any particular party/parties or individual/individuals ulterior wish. That the electoral calendar should be without ambiguities, drawn up by all concerned and can only be altered where absolutely necessary by unanimous agreement. The elections monitoring and organizing body as well as the electoral code have to be put in place by all concerned parties. ELECAM with two self-antagonizing leaders may only conduct elections in CPDM not where genuine political parties, of the over 200 in Cameroon are involved. Boycott, however is not new to the SDF yet it is a legendary weapon so long as we work on good goals and stick to them - here Boycott and effective campaign for the owners of power who are majority Cameroonians to see the need for sound laws for development. Once this is done, any makeshift arrangement in the name of a regime which retards progress to say the least will be yanked off. Arguments that the CPDM and her myriad satellite parties will confiscate all elective positions to continue reigning make little or no sense for even during the single party CPDM years, no achievement was recorded. No positive legacy was bequeathed. We were instead made severe debtors; Cameroon became poor and heavily corrupt. The CPDM regime true to her money laundry character dragged a somewhat Ahidjo bestowed buoyant economy into deep shit. The regime in place puts no foundation (except promises) for effective change or developmental takeoff. There is no Cameroon/Africa adapted school scheme for the country’s eventual growth, no basic access farm to market roads in particular, no jobs or enabling environment for job creation to arrest excessive emigration for greener pastures abroad. The powers that be makes no effort to build a befitting health system which includes good medical schools, hospitals and pharmacies after all this ruling elite self-affords foreign healthcare irrespective of the dilemma of Cameroonian masses. The misery list is inexhaustible. Our continuous participation in elections controlled by CPDM fraudulently made to have free access to the public treasury for conscience buying and manipulation during polls will never see any other political party take over and manage the country as per her manifesto. Permanent participation after these years of trial is being insensitive to the plight of particularly ordinary Cameroonians. The regime in place manages the country without even scant regard to the fact that the country is composed of two legal entities (former French Cameroons and former British Cameroons) whose interest for integral progress ought to be taken care of. This Cameroon electoral matter is a public issue of enormous importance. Hence it has to be debated in the open by all interested, by the people’s parliament – the press. It is not a matter for the confines of party or association executive secretariat(s)! God guide Cameroon.

FIFA Suspends Cameroon as Iya Sinks with FECAFOOT

The provisionary Suspension directed to the Cameroonian government most especially the sporting department owes credence to the fact that FECAFOOT, the Cameroon Football Federation for well over two months now have been characterized by a cross section of uncontrollable wrangles fanned and excited by those who are against Iya Mohammed, regime and prolonged stay in government wrecked with thousand scandal. To FIFA the World football governing body, the suspension dubbed provisional is known temporal and stand to be uplifted if the situation in FECAFOOT is redressed by her officials. Hence putting available at the disposal of the Federation, a body that will help facilitate the reconstruction and reconciliation process. Leaving the Cameroonian National team with the compensation of the protest Togolese encounter at Nyame, while being neutral on the issuance following the arrest of the Cameroon’s FECAFOOT Boss. On the retro, for more than a month, after Cameroon’s crushing and humiliating defeat in Togo, Iya Mohammed at the tail end of his Mandate was arrested for a nine Billion racket at SODECOTON. Then erupted the FECAFOOT Election Saga motivated by the third Vice President convening elections without the express approval from the First Vice President John Begheni Ndeh. Who through a Press Conference in Yaounde condemned the act very strongly bringing in a ruction, at the same time permitting the holding of Elections going against Ministerial halt and a proposal body to manage the Federation as the misdemeanor here in play is properly managed. Prompting the Head of State to decree nullifying all the decisions arrived at so very much controversial to the liking of Cameroonians and the smooth functioning of the Federation. These in all, provoked FIFA the Watchdog of all Football Federations in the World, to come to Cameroon’s rescue and this could only be attained by passing a sanction and embargo which will breed some order and sanity in the Federation Given that she was already flying in pieces and detractors were taking advantage of the wrangles in the house to do terrible and horrible things. What Cameroonian must know is that the Suspension is temporal and that through such a decision by FIFA favoring the imprisoned Iya Mohammed only confirms how deep the roots of Iya had gone down into FIFA circles.

After Exhaustive Elections & Draining Appointments; Senators go Borrowing to Stage Home Coming

*Loaning on Election Loans, with Un-restituted Financial Situation, Pay Back Time Contrary to the National miscalculation and the speculation of the salaries of Senators which was vary from one million five to eight hundred thousands, their seating allowances supposed to be huge as compared to that of Parliamentarians and extra benefits like two private sectaries, a body Guard, two Private cars and provisory finances or budget to make pronounce their persons and stage public occasions just belonging to the higher decision making house of the country (upper House) by Cameroonians, the reverse is almost now true. As we now hear, see and even feel for the Senators once even almost thrown out of their Hotel rooms at mount Febe by the manager’s quite notice of the 21st June 2013 for not footing bills and only occupying her prestigious rooms with the promises of “it will be paid” but for the timely intervention of most venerable SDF Senator Jean Tchomuluh who called the President Marcel Niat Njifenji and fresh reassuring promises made to the management. It is really a pity that barely three months with the caskets Senators should stand such a humiliation, very surprising enough to the public as the Senators now keep wallowing and gnashing their teeth of the embarrassing situation and unfair government treatments. For government has just forgotten so soon that Elections completely exhausted them financially to a point now where, some (most especially SDF Senators) barely manage to live, and even on going home, smuggle selves in and out of their base, answering pretentious in coming calls for fear or escaping to spend on a highly expectant and demanding crowd always waiting to hilariously welcome them back at any time provided cash will flow. Again contrary to the rule which normally requires that subjects prepare, finance and organize home comings for their beloved ones, sparing them off demanding and costly thanks giving ecumenical services coming from the first baptism of squandering and which must continue or else suffer criticisms of the highest order. To be frank, since after the 14th of April 2013 Senate Elections, followed by the proclamation of the results and the final Presidential appointments, the privileged one hundred’s have known no peace, or rest in the hands of their gross demanding population who know in one way or the other influenced or contributed to their Election or appointment is payback time and must be entitled to. With drainage and handicapped finances or accounts most Senators have bought permanent residence in Yaounde until empowered financially. While few rich one barely screw out from rescue accounts and sort appeal from close ones and relations to foot and stage home comings. The sums, heralds have spend for respective Home comings amounting to tens and fifteens of millions with precision, Senator Francis Nkwain, Senator Dingha Ignatius all of the North West and Senator Jean Tchomuluh of the West Region is frightening to most who have not yet honored the engagement most especially empty pocket Senators of the SDF. This state of situation is what is actually responsible for a good number of the Senators not coming home or stage home coming even dough willing. Knowing fully well that it is compulsory, good numbers are now into under ground fund raising and has submitted appeals for loans with the hope that government will in the next five years be able to give them some thing substantial to be able to clear the loans and post Election debts.

The Ntumbaw, Njirong Palaver Ending Four Decades Conflict in Ndu; Mbaw Plain(Mbawrong) Belongs to Njirong! Point

Ntumbaw Sanctioned for orchestrating raids and attacks on the Njirongs in multiple forms claiming rights of ownership over the juicy Mbawrong plain in Ndu Sub-Division, Donga-Mantung. The centre of the saga dating over Four decades and coming from a simple hand of favor onto a particular village to farm and help her famished population, paying back royalties to owners and allegiance, turns out after some decades with due devotion to accord, as a palaver over who is the rightful owner since the CDC today had to extend her tentacles to this area of the country. Reasons for want of compensation from the said cooperation, the sales of land whose values had risen and the desire for a Lion share, Ntumbaw Village called to order on several occasions by a series of Sub and Prefectoral Orders has been on the aggression of the Njirongs over right of ownership and the Njirongs on the defensive to protect valuables. Recently after all orchestrated moves of incitement, by Politicians and subjects from either village (we prefer holding the names), Ndu Sub-Division almost jumped into another Genocide like that of the 90s that rendered a good number homeless and human lives watered down. The scenario recorded two deaths from either villages termed “final clash of ownership” drawing government attention, warranting the arrest of nine and several seating for last consensus over the matter to be trash once and for all by her SDO Mesape Ndodemo. Taking you to the round about and the crooks of the matter between Ntumbaw and Njirong Villages respectively based on eye witness accounts of early days transactions, documented evidence and consensus reached in 2004 grants any normal mind the right to authenticate all favors to the Credit of Njirong Village as rightful owners of the Mbaw-plain. As such several inviting calls appeal to government to visit documented evidences and witnesses still alive to pass a second and a final verdict that will reinstate absolute peace and supreme clemency right over the disputed Mbawrong plain by government. Minutes of the Deliberation of the land commission charged with the settlement of the land dispute between Ntumbaw and Njirong Villages at Mbawrong Ndu Sub-Division held on the 9th of June 2004 and the Publication by a living eye witness of the transaction Rev Dr Philemon Bugansa Nfor titled seeking truth, Peace and Unity on the issue of the land dispute between Ntumbaw and Njirong Villages below serves government the pain in her fact finding mission and resolution. INTRODUCTION; I wonder who decided that Bungansa is a Njirong not a Ntumbaw person. That 1 am a Njirong person is perfectly correct. My mother is the eldest sister to the Fon of Njirong; the late Fon's eldest child. That I am not a Ntumbaw person is a lie from the pit of hell. I was born in Ntumbaw, I grew up in Ntumbaw and I shall be buried at Ntumbaw. My father was born in Ntumbaw, grew up in Ntumbaw and will be buried there. The truth is that I am a classic embodiment of the un- dissolvable marriage between Ntumbaw and Njirong villages; marriage made in heaven which men have tried to dissolve. I wonder how many Ntumbaw people know that the Fon of Ntumbaw is a munjar of Njirong (his mother is from Njirong Village)! I wonder how many know that the Fon of Njirong is married from Ntumbaw and that the diary was paid at Fah Mawar! It is hard to list how many Njirong people are married to Ntumbaw people and vice versa. It is no puzzle that the Maya of Njirong governs from Ntumbaw, not on exile; not where she works but where she was born, grown and lives! There are not many Ntumbaw people who can shed the blood of Njirong people without being directly affected and vice versa. Only the end of the world shall dissolve the oneness of these two blessed villages. But before that time comes, we need to decide if we want to live in peace, unity and development or we want to live fighting, hating and destroying each other. The Bible says, "The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself. If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other" (Ga. 5:14-15). We have ignored this in the last forty years. I trust that time has come for us to stop giving the devil the opportunity to help us-destroy each other. I write this as a total and one hundred percent son of Ntumbaw & Njirong villages. It took me quite some thinking and praying to arrive at being at Mbaw on Thursday Ntala, October 18, 2012. I nursed some fear of increased negative talk against me. It has been sounded loud that Dr. Nfor is a Njirong person. Some have even gone as far as saying I told them I do not belong to Ntumbaw. Others have wondered aloud why I, a Pastor should be present for the application of the traditional rite of pouring libation. Actually I wish I was there to see and understand. Unfortunately, this was done at Mbaw in 2001 when I was studying in the United States of America. 1 wish to see the video that is claimed to carry my image at the occasion and see who it is in the village that bears my resemblance that much, because I find it hard to believe that the very reasonable people who are saying so are inventing the stories. I was indeed afraid but remembered that fear that should influence action should only be that which is true. Also, in spite of these fears I considered the need to bear witness to the truth sufficiently strong enough for me to be at Mbaw for the hearing of the administration of Donga/Mantung on this issue. I remembered that I am a blessed bearer of some truths that need not remain a secret. I am a blessed son of Ntumbaw and Njirong! I was there as a young boy around 1974 at the Njitang residence of the present Fon of Ntumbaw when my Grandfather, the Fon of Njirong invited his brother, the Fon of Ntumbaw, to come and receive a piece of land and cultivate rice so as to educate his children. It was a public invitation made to the hearing of all those who were there! *I was farming rice at Mbawrong in a plot not too far from that of the present Fon of Ntumbaw. *I was there when the Ntumbaw subjects moved from where they worked with the Njirong people, to a place they called "power come" and claimed it belonged to Ntumbaw. *I have been there following the conflict that resulted from the above action, not as closely as I would have wanted but very close since I returned to this country in 1996. *I have lived the audile of rejection when Njirong people were forced to carry corn to Sehn or Zerndzfung because they were not allowed to use any grinding mill in Ntumbaw. In fact my cousin and I had to buy a grinding mill and plant at Njirong to rescue the situation. How our economy can be so perturbed! WHY? By the way, who really losses when people are prevented from buying or grinding corn. You need to see the thriving of the new Njirong market! *I was privileged to be at Mbawrong in 2004 when the then Senior Divisional Officer for Donga/Mantung Division presided over the Mbawrong Land Commission hearing. I left the place with the impression that the two villages were actually at the point of reconciliation and especially when I understood that the decision of the Land Commission was not subject to appeal. Unfortunately, the decision instead gave rise to petitions, court cases and recently a near bloodbath if not for God's grace. *And now, thank God I was there at Mbawrong Government Primary School class six classrooms listening to all that went on and able to write down notes which i want to share with you. By the way, it was a pleasure for me to meet the SDO for the first time, contrary to those who carry it that Bungansa has been going to Nkambe to give bribes to administration on behalf of Njirong people to win cases. I have never met the judge who is said to have been induced in August 2012 to turn a criminal case into a land dispute case and throw it out of court. If these two villages are still there today it is clear indication that the God of peace is the Lord of Ntumbaw and Njirong twin villages. Whatever the case God knows that i love Ntumbaw and Njirong people and pray that the two walk hand in glove, work together and develop side by side. What follows are the notes of both my reflection and the Proceedings that I jotted down during the discussion in Mbaw on October 18, 2012. I share these with you because I have come to realize that the Njirong/Ntumbaw conflict has been enflamed by the cancer of ignorance. It is no pleasure of mine to sit and watch people die for lack of knowledge when I have the information that could save lives. I trust that this information I give you will inform your subsequent actions and reactions on this matter; -so that together we can build our twin villages for the glory of God and for our good and that of our descendants. AT MBAWRONG ON THE 18TH OF OCTOBER 2012 ON THE ISSUE OF THE LAND DISPUTE BETWEEN MBAWRONG AND NJIRONG CALLED BY THE DIVISIONAL LAND COMMISSION My reflections before the beginning of the program: I was first and foremost, touched by the anxiety I saw in the people. The gathering of the notables of the two villages reminded me of how intricately linked we are. Imagine the grandson of Fai war (actually a nephew); sitting as a notable of Njirong and Fai War himself sitting opposite to speak for Ntumbaw! How can anyone think of "winning" the other in this kind of an atmosphere? I wondered within me why this marriage has for so long been perturbed by the forces of deception. I could not lie!? asking myself the role, of the elites of both villages in this four decades old conflict. I wondered why tradition, politics, and legal interventions have all so far been incapable of producing the needed peace for our development. Surely, someone; somewhere is refusing the truth! Yet, God calls us to live in and for the truth; to sustain and uphold truth that sets men free and brings peace and progress. What are we looking for in the Ntumbaw/Njirong case? Are we looking for opportunities to exercise might; for land to cultivate; good neighborliness that can allow us exploit the land in oneness of mind, or are we looking for opportunities to win battles and celebrate no matter the outcome? Villages nowadays rely heavily on their external elites for development. Ntumbaw and Njirong are no exception. Surely these elites of both villages have contributed to development in the two villages. But I have observed over the years that most elites play hide and- attack or hide and inflame, sometimes sponsoring falsehood. When the proceedings started at about ll:50am the SDO called on the pastor present (me) for the opening prayer. It was a great honor. I prayed for the truth to prevail and set us free. My prayer was that God would bind any spirit of deception and display the truth so equivocally that no one would leave the hall with doubts. In 2004 I was only present as an observer. Today I was present as a servant of TRUTH and it was rather interesting that when the SDO quoted from his various sources, he made sure I cross examined the document for confirmation. I was excited when I looked round and saw Dr. Usman sitting behind me. I thought to myself, "We can talk after about what we both heard and observed." Unfortunately, the joy was short lived given that the SDO was strict with the roll call. He maintained what he had demanded in his invitation letter: the Fon and five notables including the president of the village development Association (for each village). He allowed the Fons of Sop and Chup and the representative of the Fon ofNtem to be there as observers only. I stayed in because I am a Pastor and he wanted a pastor around. The proceedings: The SDO introduced the subject matter as understanding the conflict between the two villages, especially the recent incidence that took place In August 2012 and bringing the matter to a close. He quoted Eccl. 3:1-8 to say that there is time for everything. He said there is time for a problem like this to die. He said there is a time to be silent and a time to speak. He said that the villages had been at war because they had not been at peace. Just living in suspicion, he said, is a state of peacelessness. "Enough is enough and we have to bring this conflict to an end, let the truth prevail and We live in peace because living in this peaceless situation is jeopardizing the future of your children", he said. He promised that peace will prevail in these villages. He gave the floor to the parties to bring up any submission that were new additions to. what was presented in 2004 when the Administration ruled on this matter. He explained that he was acting on instructions from his hierarchy after the August incident. He asked the Fons to speak. *The Fon of Njirong read his submission (see Appendix). He stated why he was laying claims to Mbawrong and concluded that he believed the present meeting was a follow up of the 2004 Commission whose decision the. Administration should implement. *The Fon of Ntumbaw got up to say that this Mbaw belonged to Him. "It is Mbaw Nswi Ntumbaw," he said and clarified that his boundary is with Nso people and Ntem people. He said he thought the Fon of Njirong is His brother and now he does not know what is wrong. He said the Fon of Njirong claimed that he (Fon of Ntumbaw) does not know anything. He reported that the Njirong Fon had said the government came here and said Mbaw belongs to the Fon of Rong. He said he is not happy that the present Fon is back stabbing him. He declared that he enthroned the Fon of Rong and on that day a son of Ntumbaw was crossing the Mantunmbaw River, fell inside and died and the mother even went away. He said he is not happy with the whole situation perpetuated by the Fon of Njirong. The SDO asked the Fon of Ntumbaw whether in giving the things to the Fon of Rong asking for land he was requesting to take possession of the land or he was asking to cultivate it and pay allegiance to Njirong. The Fon of Ntumbaw said he did not give anything to the Njirong people asking for land. The SDO was infuriated with this and reminded the Fons and their notables that he had the records of facts. He opened to the Gazzets which he said he brought from Buea (the Official records of British Cameroon that recognized the existing villages at the time). He called me, as pastor to come and see and attest to the fact that the official documents of the nation recognized Fon NGANJO as the Fon of Njirong and attest to the existence of Njirong as avillage. I saw it clearly written. Secondly he presented the 1970 Administrative Map of Mbumland from the Ministry of Territorial Administration that shows the geo-social structure of eachvillage. The map showed that the geographic coordinates of Ntumbaw village clearly excludes Mbawrong in her geography limits. The same document also shows that the officially known quarters of Ntumbaw village do not include Mbawrong or Mbaw Nswi Nlumbaw. Thirdly the SDO opened to the minutes of the 2004 Land Commission and read portions of it. It contained, among other things the confession of the Fon of Ntumbaw to the effect that he begged for land from the Fon of Njirong to cultivate rice. *The SDO stated that considering that what remains authentic in administration is what is written, not oral tradition; considering the judicial and administrative reports of his predecessor? on the Njirong/Ntumbaw conflicts and thirdly considering that this matter had been decided upon in 2004 and there is no new submission that should question the correctness of that decision, he concludes that the 2004 decision of the Land Commission stands and will be enforced strictly. Closure: The minutes of the 2004 LAND DISPUTE COMMISSION was re-read to the people in its entirety. The SDO then repeated that anyone who does not abide by this document is acting against the Law. That means those who are chipping the land and selling without the express permission of the Fon of Njirong are criminals who should go to prison. The SDO said there is a proverb in their dialect that "when you hold a cutlass you can either cut someone with it or you beat him with it." he explained that he can decide to apply the law and get those who have been violating the Land Commission Decision to go to prison for he knew them, or he could open up for dialogue. He asked if the two villages wanted him to apply the rule of law on defaulters or he should open up for dialogue The Fon of Njirong said Njirong has never been against dialogue as long as their ownership of the land is recognized. The Ntumbaw notables also called for dialogue. The SDO then said he would go for dialogue on the condition that those who have violated the Land Commission Decision and have extended or acquired land as well as those who have sold some without the blessings of the rightful owners of the land should bring their letters of apology to the Divisional Officer for Ndu Sub Division within three months, meaning by the 31st of December 2012. The DO will bring them to the custodian of the land (the Fan of Njirnng) to regularize their owncr.'hip. Anyone who docs not do so, he said, would face the force of the law. Secondly, he stated that the traditional rites on the land must be performed on the Njirong country Sunday and all those who cultivate Njirong land must bring their royalties to the Njirong people. At this point the Ntumbaw notables agitated on the bases that there was the pouring of libations on the land in 2001 in the presence of the then SDO. The SDO explained that: i). The libation program was organized by the DO and the Land Commission by the SDO. The decision of the SDO is that of an appealed case and thus supersedes that of the Divisional Officer. 2). Libation was in 2001 but did not even bring any peace thus the Land Commission was called in 2004. It is because what the DO did never worked that the SDO came in 2004 and settled it by law. A later decision always supersedes the earlier one. The SDO promised to report his decision to the State Council, the Magistrate and to Yaounde for strict implementation of the 2004 Land Commission Decision. Henceforth any violation of that Commission Decision will invite his wrath. He made his closing remarks and called on Rev. Dr. Philemon NFOR to do the closing prayer. Immediately after the prayer, the SDO and the Land Commission members left. The deliberations ended at i:55pm local time. HERE ARE THE CONCLUSIONS STATED IN THE LAND COMMISSION DECISION OF 2004: *That the piece of land in dispute between Ntumbaw and Njirong belongs to the Njirong people. *That occupants of pieces of land in the said disputed area shall continue to cultivate their farms and any other form nl development there in, but must pay allegiance to the Fon of Niirong as the undisputed custodian of that national land. *That no new farms shall be established without the Express authorization or benediction of the said custodian in connection with the existing land tenure laws enforce. MY CONCLUDING COMMENTS: * I prayed and still pray that this should be the beginning of a great time of peace, unity, togetherness and development of our two villages. All of us have the responsibility to make this happen. Be a peace maker. * It is my humble pled that as elites, nobles, learned men and women, people of good will of these two villages we should inform the younger ones of the truth, learn to submissively benefit from what is not ours and open up what is ours to others to benefit from us. * We should learn to share what God has given us as individuals and as villages. I was there when the pipe lines were dug at the beginning of the Ntumbaw water project, for the water to be extended to the Njirong village. Unfortunately. Some Ntumbaw persons dug a pit latrine on the pipe line and stopped the water from going to Njirong. The pipes had been bought. Hundreds of those pipes are still lying besides the Mfu house in Njirong and Njirong is yet to have water. What is wrong with Njirong drinking Ntumbaw water and Ntumbaw people cultivation of Njirong land? These are from God for God's people! *Let us as individuals, be committed to the development of both villages. Do you know that the creation of Government Secondary School, now GHS Ntumbaw, was thanks to the efforts of the present Fon of Njirong? Such commitment to the twin villages can bring us much more than we can think of or imagine. It is always a blessing for brothers to dwell in unity (Psa/m 133). We should NEVER allow individual defaulters to drag villages to conflict for their selfish aims. Let us consciously build relationships, especially those ones God has established. Who would not smile at Numbaw market or Njirong market or Mbawrong if he sees brother Edward Kwiyup and the Ngiris (his sister's children in Njirong) moving hand in hand and having a good time? After all, will the Mawar people refuse to go to Njirong after their daughter for cry die there or will Njirong people refuse to go for cry die at Fah Mawar when their wintoh is bereaved? We have to break these artificial barriers to love between us. Above all let us pray and do what is right in God's sight for our good and that of our children. God says in His word in Deut. 27:17; "Cursed is the man who moves his neighbor's boundary stone." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!" Rather let's seek his blessings by respecting what He has defined for us but sharing in love and humility for His glory and our peace. Remember He determined the exact time, place and boundaries within which we should live and in Him we live and move and have our being (Acts 17:24-26). “The conclusion therefore, from the SDO' was that he stands by the decision of His predecessor and confirms the conclusions of the 2004 land commission”. Therefore

Developments in the Cameroonian Catholic Church; Who Succeeds Bishop Lysinge at 75?

As Bishop Mola Francis Lysinge of Mamfe Diocese, the Papal representative officiating chieftain nears 75 ripe ages for retirement in the Catholic Church as a servant of the Lord. Independent sources observes, that Auxiliary-Bishop Elect Rt Rev Agapitus Nfon presently resident at the Bamenda Arch Diocese with temporal base, the St Joseph Metropolitan Cathedral of Bishop Fontem Cornelius Essua after Roma’s recognition. Will succeed Bishop Teche Lysingue according to high opinion holders of Mamfe Dioceses by the time he clocks 75 this end of year 2013. Auxi-Boshop Elect Nfon, by virtue of the fact that he was appointed to a non existent Diocese in Europe once made Bishop and has not taken office, spares Rome of the pain to appoint another Bishop from the Cameroonian Catholic Ecclesial as the Mamfe Diocese’s thrown goes vacant. By so doing, for matter of convenience marring the possibility of the Vicar-General Rev Father Ambe from also climbing who has since moved from Priest school to the Rector of St THOMAS Aquinas Major Seminary, Principal of Sacred Heart College, the Education Sectary and onto the Vicar-General Position where hopes were high that he will be challenged with the task of a Bishop by Rome before he retires from active service to God. With the presence of the Auxi-Bishop Nfon, time situation, and circumstances by all indications are working adversely to the longing wishes of Bishop Hopefuls, at the same time neutralizing all plans and possibilities of Bishop Appointments. And if Rome will have to go extra miles, the options or dwell will then be between Prof Rev Christian Mofor one time Rector of St Thomas Aquinas and Rector of Catholic West African University presently Education Sectary to the Bamenda Arch Diocese who is not very well, Prof Rev Father Polycarpe Fonjock an old renown Philosophy Teacher under the order and the Vicar-General we mentioned earlier all of retiring Bishop Mola Lysinge’s class. Rev Father Mofor not very well, eliminates self from Bishop Roma race up to Mamfe Diocese, Rev Father Polycarp not very weighty in terms of holding post of responsibilities under the order will normally leave Rome with no option better than the big best Vicar-General. Away from such a stance, the Catholic Church and her high officials methodic and realistic in the process and practice of appointments, full of surprises may single out completely a different Rev Father as before God all are equal, thus repeating the regardless notion of who you are and the post you have held before appointing. Bishop Lysingue was appointed from no where (that is as a class room Lecturer at St Thomas Aquinas Major Seminary) to head the Mamfe Diocese and has proven his worth, for sure another simple, Noble, humble and from no where Rev Father may be called up by Rome to run the affairs of the Diocese assigning Rt Rev Bishop Nfon to other pressing duties in roving form most probably.

Time for Ruthless Arrest Actions; HIV\AIDS on the Ravage in Ngoketunjia

HIV\AIDS Prevalence & Dominance in Ngoketunjia Divison Arithmetic’s, with over 5845 HIV\AIDS cases, 3 infected weekly &10s tested Positive Monthly Ngoketunjia Division one of the Seven Divisions that make up the North West Region of the Cameroonian Republic of recent with her reputed Ndop plain topography, her humid climate, with a population of 131,845, with 26 Health Units both confessional, Private and Public, viz progressive HIV\AIDS medical screening, test and administration of the Anti-retroviral Drug reported that the prevalence of the disease in that area of the country is witnessing arithmetic dominance as of the other 10 Regions of the Republic “proxy prevalence using the statistics of PMTC is high compared to the National 5.3 compared to 4.3 National” says the District Medical Officer (DMO). National statistics shows that North West comes in terms of percentage 2nd with 4.2 amongst other Regions, Ngoketunjia Division with its 13 villages and the respective populations of Bamessing(24409), Bamali(17277), Balikumbat(33824), Bafanji(19879), Bamunka(52046), Bambalang(38113), Babungo(12210), Baba I(16033), Babessi(13114), Bangolan(10214), Bamukumbit(11433), Bali Gashu(5369), Bali Gasing(1302) where HIV\AIDS is very rampant because of too much promiscuity and prostitution amongst, youths, elders and widows, comes first according to records from the District Medical office headed by Dr Bambo Emmanuel, who “invites Politicians and every person of the Division to take interest in knowing their HIV\AIDS status, offer voluntary counseling and make available health infrastructures to her ever growing population subjected to the devouring hands of the killer disease AIDS”. The Acquired immune deficiency syndrome which is contracted through sexual intercourse, blood transfusion or by using unsterilized items own dominance of this part of the country more on the fact that by nature girls, men and women of these areas are too flirtatious and very negligent when it comes to the use of condoms. Early marriages holds account to such a factor, where you have contaminated “sugar daddies” who go for youngsters, while widows of diseased victim go along with young boys, who on infection go back to their young girl friends who are placed vulnerable to the infection, in a circle that is how the infection goes. Rape and incest amongst the “bororos” who form a community (indigenous persons) living up behind the sacred Ngoketunjia hill who have and know very little about AIDS and condoms, witnesses brothers interlocking with sisters indiscriminately another contributing factor to the prevalence and dominance of the diseases. Mother to child infection is also one of the means through which the vice is spread since a good number of pregnant women do not go for (ANC) anti-natal clinic here because of poverty to easily be diagnosed such that mother to child HIV\AIDS transmission is prohibited through maternity counseling and drugs consummation. Their fair days commonly known as “market days” highly celebrated within these village circles always go with misadventures and excesses because of too much drinking, as they are rendezvous grounds for concubines “Njumba” to meet and carry out nasty practices in unscrupulous areas, at times behind market sheds and urinary. Cultural festivals, annual dances are other most important moments and venue in the lives of the people where amidst the ambiance, excitement and effervescence, terrible and horrible sexual practices are conducted and promoted by visitors, always in their thousands who take advantage of the naivety of the villagers to satiate their canal desires regardless of their status or that of victims. The insufficiency of HIV\AIDS testing centers, equipments is responsible for less notice of new infected cases as most who fall prey are tested positive and registered in near by Divisions Mezam, Bui or West Region as such relevant records of daily realities are marred. Wanton and reckless behavior amongst the youths, here (most especially those of Bamessing, Bamunka, Babungo and Bangolans known notorious for wild sexual habits and uncontrollable canal emotions) is the sole cause of the predominance and prevalence of the disease in Ngoketunjia. Inadequate sensitization and awareness stands out as one of the responsible factors for the arithmetic progressive infection in the Division. In addition, the fact that her only income generating crop is rice with broken, sandy soils (Ndop Rice) which can not provide them the much needed income for livelihood pushes them most especially women into prostitution. The shortage and the “black practice” of rigid attribution of Anti-retroviral (administered to over 2000 cases weekly), allocated to patients by government free of charge almost pushing them to strike early this year 2013 are indicators of the fact that Ngoketunjia Division embodies and harbors a good number of HIV\AIDS cases not defined since cases are recorded on weekly bases. As basic information and clarion call, we of the Media House World Echoes Newspaper Group Cameroon pathetic about the situation, “Knowing that HIV\AIDS is not a fatality, the public can avoid it by adapting to the best new found behavior of abstinence, the use of condoms, testing and screening always to know ones status enhances responsible habits. A body free of HIV\AIDS in itself promotes and invites sustainable development because health is wealth and wealth means progress, prospects and achievement which is equal to rapid development and growth as we look forward on scientist to come up with a vaccines in a date not yet known. “A secured live worth more than the excesses of its misadventures, obviously fatal you know” Tamukong Roland Angong

LISAC –partners with outreach

Progress report on LISAC’s activities in Cameroon amongst the indigenous groups has been feel by the World Outreach whose ministry whose objectives are to bring hope and Christ’s love to humanity through community development projects like water, women’s rights, gender equality, education, health and many other areas that works to give human being a better living condition in which love will lead is their main goal. Through a press briefing the Executive Director for LISAC Cameroon, David Mifang told journalists that his organization has been doing a lot to inform and educate Cameroonians and government as whole to ensure that the rural people benefit more from state resources as they suffers a daily tsunami in their living and are those whose hopes have been damaged as they are not being cared for even through government representatives within areas and still reports nothing back to state and or the urban people for proper understanding of the critical problems they face each day; what are the real problems of the rural woman, rural girl, and their living conditions. Society should not politicize all human endeavors, this is not correct. We should corroborate and build positive human relations, healthy in all areas of live which this will promote good will. I use this medium to call un responsible Cameroonians both at home and in diasporas to look behind and help those rural indigenous communities that are seeing themselves as being a mistake on earth for their troubles and cries are not being heard at all. These Cameroonians should know that giving is sharing in the blessings that comes from above and satisfies the heart and the spirit. We all have been given responsibilities which we most respond to if we want satisfaction in our spirit and heart, this call to rescue humanity most and should be obeyed. Today you see these International representatives from World Outreach; they have heard about our work and have come to see for themselves and today we have just signed a new partnership deal with them for the continues good work in helping rural communities live a better live and to fine grace in the sight of God. We trust that we will work continuously with all partners and the rural man through prayers and devotions we will attain our objectives for the collectively benefit of all. Let government know that the rural people need lots of supports, she should help in roods, health centers, not only schools where rural parents will employ teachers with nothing, how will a teacher perform that honorable duty without a pay? Government should give schools and also send teachers to such areas and not put more burdens on rural indigenous families who are those most deprived.
