Prof. Tita CPP Party Chairman Speaks Out on the Deepening Anglophone Crisis

-Holds the Fons Blame Worthy for not Assuming their Responsibility in Times of War

-Accuses some High Handed Officials in Government for Exploiting and Fanning the Flames of the Crisis for Money at the Mercy of Human Lives

-Says the Time of Cleansing and Adorning of the God’s is Now.

In retrospect: crying from the wilderness of agony as Amba fight goes dreadful. It is time for N.W. Fons, S.W. Chiefs and their entire subjects, to cleanse the land and adorn the gods to stop the persistent blood flow. God's people have been held in captivity by demons,   in preparation for a civil war. We will not refuse the fact that only those the gods want to destroy, do they render mad. Only the mad tramples over  tradition and displease the ancestral gods, for curses that will suffer the innocent as is the NOSO case. NOSO is clutched to ancestral curses and under the canopy of democracy, they have gone off senses and are doing the unacceptable that are rendering the gods more angry. This is the land like Sodom and Gomorrah, awaiting destruction if care is not taken. What a strange phenomenon in the history of Anglophones that living houses are set a blazed, killing and maiming of human beings, school doors closed, all in the vain struggle for liberation. Who is holding who captive? All what is happening is very unacceptable by the gods and as long as they remain displeased, most curses will be showered on the people for a possible civil war. Afraid of the darkest clouds of tomorrow, let's listen to a voice crying from the wilderness, calling on the Fons, Chiefs and villagers, to come out of slumber and perform all rituals to hypnotize, cajole, influence our young children to stop embracing terrorism and let our gods once more be happy to see Peace and unity return to their people of Cameroon. We are being harassed by our children and only the Fons, Chiefs, parents can call them to order. The military will perfectly confront them as it is the case presently, leaving to our sorrows many dead. Should our Fons, Chiefs and parents, come sincerely as a shield between the Amba boys and the military, and order their children to stop fighting, the whole struggle will have a very interesting end, for peace to be automatically reinstated. At a crucial moment like this that a civil war is fast glooming, it will sound better for parents to know their children in the bushes and make a parental appeal for all to come home.

We should not allow our children to be gunned down by the military, leaving for us a bleak future. Which is the village that will not come out to defend her  unity when she realizes an invasion? With all the fragmentation of Africa out of the White man's greed, is it not wise now staying united and battle the viciousness of the X- colonial master, than going for more fragmentation still for the white man's benefit? What is really the value of all the little nations of Africa, that we are scrambling and killing ourselves for more? The flames being fanned by some persons and the Diaspora will not be beneficial to the Anglophones at all.

Cameroon Business Guru Elhadj Baba Danpullo Throw Weight Behind Sameul Eto’o Fils Ahead of FECAFOOT Elections

The owner of Ndawara estate and Elba ranch/ Green gold merchant Elhadji Baba Danpullo has backed fully Eto'o Fils rescue mission to head FECAFOOT and bring drastic and the much needed changes in the Federation.

That was yesterday 8th December 2021 when he offered the runner up a hectic reception at his Yaounde Bastos residence where he received the Sameul Eto'o delegation with all due respect and grandeur.

The Eto’o Fils sejour at Danpullo’s castle was interactive and animated by prayers, blessings and benedictions.

As the race is on with the full backing of the population, Eto'o has decided to leave no storm unturned to safeguard the welfare of the sinking Federation.

Reasons why of late he has resorted to door to door campaigns, meeting all those who matter to seek advise and receive blessings.

What must be noted is no force stationed will stop change and the change bringers have decided to stand against all odds.

The way forward is clear, Eto'o Fils  is determined and mean business.

Business in the  real and strict sense of it reasons why of late they have decided to overturn tables over night to puncture all cooked up  plans by some high handed members of government to flop change.

Change which is at the beg and call of every Cameroonian who wish to See Eto'o on board on the 11^th day of December 2021.

History has it and has finalized everything for it to be made whole above every human obstruction.

Anybody who dares will be doing so at his risk. The future is pregnant, Cameroonians are mobilizing. God knows what will happen that day.

But anything other than Eto'o will spark an irredeemable confusion. The forces of nature are awake, the people's parliament on high alert.

President North West House of Chief H.R.H Fon Kavin Shomitang kidnapped

 

That was on the 7^th of December 2021 around the wee hours of 5, by separatists fighters operating under the command action of Mbashi Clement popularly known as Field Marshal ( FM) “No Pity”.

Inside information from Bambalang village avails that the Fon’s abductors demand a 20million ransom from government for his release or expect the unexpected.

It should be noted that the Fon is in the hands of one of the most notorious, ruthless and brutal gang leader or “General” the Anglophone liberation war has ever known since 2017.

The said FM No Pity was responsible for the brutal killing of 16 elite force at Sabga hill and has orchestrated and carried out several successful attacks on the military and is heavily wanted by the Cameroon government.

Additional information coming in at Press time holds that the Fon barely dashed to the village for some rituals and festival early this December only to be whisked off a week after.

There is general outcry in and around Cameroon demanding his immediate and unconditional release by abductors. “That there is no crime being a Fon and traditional custodian of the people”

Uba Workers to Go on Strike as from the 9th

University of Bamenda (Uba) Officials, Lecturers, Staffs and Support Staffs to Go on Strike as from Tomorrow the 9^th of December 2021

They gave the Vice Chancellor Prof. Theresa Akenji up till the 8^th of this December 2021 to pay their accumulated Mission orders, allowances and areas.

As we report nothing has been done as temperaments keep rising and likely to flare as from Tomorrow with full action or manifestations given that the expectant workers are 17 days to Christmas celebration with nothing to do preparations.

The promises are too much and assurance from the Vice Chancellor never forthcoming. This time the workers have sworn to cause her pay by force. Hear them “not even that the money is not there but she and his people are busy fidgeting with figures with the comptable matier and auxiliaries at the expense of workers,. While those doing the work are languishing and wallowing in abject poverty. What she is doing is complete expression of bad fate and lack of human kindness given the difficulty people are going through and the risk we all bear to come to work.  We are sick and tire of her empty promises. Yaounde must know this”

They have with  firm indignation sworn to make things worst for the Vice Chancellor and the Minister of Higher Education Prof. Fame Ndongo, if they are not paid their money before December 25^th. It is unfortunate that under such trying times in the country and North West Region in particular, Prof. Theresa and click are helping to worsen the situation by annoying staffs, officials and Lecturers the more.

“Workers should be paid after work and must earn what they deserve in time and not out of pressure and stress.” This complains and many more are coming from the foot hills of another scandalous report that is circulating and vexing to the Bamenda University community concerning the Ministerial grant of 50000frs to students annually. The list of this year’s beneficiaries came carrying the names of Lecturers and obscured names leaving out many names which are suppose to benefit.

This and many more preoccupations will set Uba ablaze if proper care and speed actions are not taken in time to meet the expectations and wishes of it’s aggrieved workers who are in a state of confusion and frustration as Christmas approaches with empty pockets.

All these wrangles can best be explained based on gross administrative excesses and lapses in management which calls for absolute need for the system to be totally overhauled.

Fire Works as Dec 11th Approaches; Samuel Eto’o, Seidou Battle for FECAFOOT, Footballers Vow to Drop Boots if Mbombo Njoya Crook his Way Back

Five days to Cameroon Football Federation Elections slated for the 11^th of December 2021 in Yaounde to Elect it’s new President, serious fire works, witch hunting, manipulation, threats, intimidation, bribery and counter offensive actions have suddenly become the order of the day.

Order of the day in the strict sense of it to flop all efforts or actions call it mechanism or machinery currently been planted by the Njoya faction to do all in their best to pick back another mandate at all cost.

The Sameul Eto’o Fils faction of late were taken aback with the embarrassing decisions of six Delegates endorsing the candidature of Mbombo Njoya, hence have since taken upon themselves to be counter offensive.

Sources around Sameul have it on sound note that they have to review their strategy, use all actors afore hand to decry and puncture any deal so far by their opponent. Use the ballot and if the worst come to the worst, use the population and take the streets as a last resort.

It is not for nothing that Footballers syndicate have unanimously declared for Sameul Eto’o Fils and have orally threatened to cause footballers drop their Boots if victory is manipulated by the regime in favor of Seidou Mbombo Njoya and if the worst come to the worst the whole country will march to Etoudi.

“Operation leave the Cameroon  pitches to seat tide and corrupt officials” is the decisions footballers have taken. It is either Sameul Eto’o or everything about Cameroon football will be grounded after 11^th of December 2021.

Six Delegates Auction Eto’o Fils Six Days to 2021 FECAFOOT Elections (All Six and Officials Caged)

Another Crisis in the Offing as 2021 FECAFOOT Elections Approaches;

 “It is either Samuel Eto’o Fils at the Head or Plunge Cameroon into Another Crisis”

Few Days to 2021 FECAFOOT Elections in Cameroon, Six Delegates from the extreme North, the North, Adamawa, Center, West and North West Regions have thrown their  loyalty, total and unreserved support behind Seidou Mbombo Njoya to pick or take another ticket to head the federation. What a mockery?

A decision that has suddenly taken the population aback and is making news around social media circles that “some individuals, better still gullible elements have sat some where to cook up another plan to set Cameroon ablaze or plunge her into another state of civil unrest” or better still auction the fate of the sinking Federation.

At this decisive point in time for Cameroon football Federation, any decisions that is contrary to giving the football guru Samuel Eto’o the first pride of place at the helm of the Federation will spark a serious wave of civil unrest or confusion as the population is impatiently waiting for the much needed change. Anything contrary to that or short of, will push the population, sport lovers and Eto’o Fil's fans to the street.

The December 5^th  decisions by all six Delegates in Garoua so far, few days to elections is regarded as a time bomb, call it mafia to set an agenda and overturn things for the good of the regime in power contrary to the wish of the population.

Agenda setting has left the political scene and is now taking sejour in the Cameroon football Federation. What the population will not normally take lying down. Looking at things from the clear point of view the tides are already turning, let me term it to the “wrong direction” as the fans of Eto’o Fils are already putting it and will stop at nothing to overturn.

Samuel Eto’o Fils, himself cannot afford to loose or dare lost the election because that will completely water down his hard earned personality for years and it will also be a great blow or disgrace to his person in the face of the football world as an icon rejected by his own people.

Another school of thought have it on right footing that the Garoua click or staged mafia and call for support to Seidou Mbombo Njoya is to cause Eto’o to open the mallet or wait to pick his doom.

Sports analyst on their part are seeing a major challenge ahead of Eto’o Fils who took everything lying down and members of the Federation for granted on the premise that he is popular choice.

The common man believes in Samuel Eto’o, anything or person short of Eto’o will spark a civil wave of confusion. Bringing back the same people on board again will only help to worsen things and cause the population to completely lost trust in the Federation.

Ntumfor Barrister Nico Halle Speaks Out on the Deepening Anglophone Crisis and the Mass Killing Going on

Torched by the Deepening Socio, Economic and political crisis eating up Cameroon, fanned and magnified by some wayward and gullible individuals feeding fat out of the situation as souls continue to perish, Ntumfor Barrister Nico Halle, Ambassador of Cameroon peace movement and the fight against corruption and embezzlement speaks out on the mesless Killing and the gross human rights abuse going on in Anglophone cameroon now used as a money making machine by high officials in government. Condemning in strong terms the bad fate manifested by the system from the very onset of the Crisis right up to where we are because of lies telling and intellectual dishonesty.

MESSAGE OF DESPONDENCY AND FRUSTRATION. YET HOPEFUL.

By Barrister Nico Halle....

My glorious but expensive and excruciating Mission of Justice, Peace crusading and fighting against Corruption, embezzlement, bribery in short Moral Decadence in all its forms at all the segments of our society for more than 30 years now has since about 5 years hit the rocks ostensibly due to the recent ascent of more sophisticated pernicious methods of vaulting and unbridled quest for power, position, wealth and recognition. 

Unspeakable Moral Decadence. I am totally weird. For the last five years running human life has been reduced to nothingness. We see God's Children slain in plain daylight without any iota of sympathy/empathy. Abominable indeed.

My heart bleeds in pain permanently not so much because of the huge personal funds and resources I have pumped into Justice and Peace Crusading plus fighting corruption for over 30 years etc but because most of those who pretend to be preaching PEACE are those promoting the crisis making financial and political capital. We called that BLOOD MONEY and BLOOD POSITIONS. The recent escalation that has taken the lives of even innocent children in the NW/SW Regions is a case in point and a cause for concern. 

It is most regrettably to note a country that was hitherto known as a peaceful island in a turbulent world, the Switzerland of Africa, Africa in miniature, the breadbasket of Africa is being wantonly shredded by gangsters and the entire world is watching seemingly helpless. I have been asking myself why all the display of high handedness, hypocrisy, falsehood, surrogacy, pretence, praise singing, brazen lies and insensitivity. For how long will such blatant impunity remain unchecked? Who is benefiting from this deepened senseless war? Why are the UN Security Council, European Union and the African Union silent? Are these world Organs still relevant? You have the answer. What of other structures put in place by Government to ensure peace and harmony? Are these organs worth anything? Are the good people of our country still relevant? Who is fooling who? Are our prayers still listened to? Yes Of what use are the civil society organizations? Of what use is our moral force, permit me call them the global church? Do we still have consciences? No. Has wealth amassed on people's blood any use? No. Can a corrupt person preach peace? No. Can xenophobes preach peace? No. Can one who promotes tribalism and discrimination fight against Hate Speech? No. 

Since 5 years now and in the face of the escalation of the crisis a panoply of practical solutions to douse the crisis have been elicited by others and my humble self but since I have no political platform nobody cares nor listens. As a Nationally and Internationally acclaimed Peace Crusader earning to my credit by God’s grace and knowing what I have contributed to harmony and peace in Cameroon and beyond I feel deeply frustrated that people in their large numbers are dying unabated, property destroyed, people internally and externally displaced, general despair and misery, uncertainty and unexplained poverty and unemployment. Are Cameroonians not for the most part responsible for the present quagmire? Yes. Despicable. What is the sustainable solution to this crisis I have suggested over the years? Only measures on the platform of 

LOVE, JUSTICE, ACCOUNTABILITY, TRANSPARENCY, PATRIOTISM, TRUTH, INTEGRITY, INDISCRIMINATION, FAIRNESS, DIGNITY, HONESTY, and THE FEAR OF THE LORD can do the trick.

I am talking about the core moral values that make for the harmonious growth of a people. I am still stuck to the creation of a Justice, Peace and Reconciliation Organ amongst others as one of the major ways to get sustainable peace. Is this not a recommendation to be examined and analyzed? This is the platform on which sustainable PEACE can reign. This Thursday 25th November 2021 obliges me to make a clarion call to all Cameroonians to re-examine ourselves indicting our consciences in the face of these heinous, macabre, barbaric and unjustified killings of God's children. Anybody who is directly or remotely tele-guiding the killings /destruction for any profit whatever shall undoubtedly be answerable to the Almighty God sooner or later. For the goodwill and peace-loving people, I appeal to you to as usual join me in crusading Justice, Peace and return to normalcy in the crisis Regions. Yet, remember there can be no genuine Peace without Justice, equity and social fairness. For me I will continue in my God given Peace crusading mission as peace is the MOST PRECIOUS ASSET for a People. Yet, unless the Lord builds the house the builders labour in vain. Psalm 127.

Finally, and once more, my sincere and heartfelt condolences to the families that have lost their loved ones since the eruption of the socio-political crisis in the NW/SW Regions. I pray, God, have pity on your children. 2 Chronicles 7:14. Amen....

Cameroon Anglophone Students Now daily Victims and Targets of the Deepening Liberation war by Both Separatists and Republican forces

Teacher Trade Unions Describe Cameroon Anglophone Regions and schools As Dangerous Human Abattoir

Five Teacher Trade Unions have condemned in strong terms the killings of pupils, students and teachers in the Anglophone Regions of Cameroon where an armed conflict is currently going on. In a recent public statement, the trade unionists describe the two Anglophone Regions as the "most dangerous human abattoir in the world."

The release states: "We, members of the Teacher Trade Unions and our partners ... note with dismay and dissatisfaction the wanton desecration and destruction of human life especially of pupils, students and teachers simply desirous of respecting the 'education for all' sustainable development goal of the UNO in a community once an island of peace in a turbulent mainland, but today one of the most dangerous human abattoir in the world."

The release condemns the killings in these words: "We strongly condemn the recent incomprehensible killings in Buea and Bamenda of Enondiale Tchuengia Carolaise and Tataw Bandy on their way to and from school respectively. We pray God to grant eternal rest to these little ones whose lives were abruptly cut short in such a callous manner ..."

With regards to the careless use of firearms, the release states: "We equally strongly denounce the unrestrained use of firearms in our towns and villages by both government security operatives and armed groups, which has heightened uncertainty and insecurity in these places to alarming levels as well as the wanton and callous use of IEDs  even in school and university campuses, with resultant untold  psychological, physical and tragic consequences. We promptly call on all belligerents to exercise caution and restraint and to always have and show consideration for the beleaguered, battered and depressed masses."

Strong and Urgent Appeal

The Teacher Trade Unions make an appeal thus: "... pupils, students, teachers and parents cannot and should not be persecuted and subjected to pain, fear, uncertainty and death in their quest to acquire and/or provide education which is a fundamental right to be promoted, procured, cherished, continually developed and preserved especially for posterity."

Against School Boycott/Shutdown

The Teacher Trade Unions take a stand against school shutdown. "We unequivocally denounce any gratuitous calls for schools to shut down or lockdown, and piously request for a reversal of such decision."

It is worth noting that the five Teacher Trade Unions are CATTU, PEATTU, CEWOTU, BATTUC and TAC.

Post Script

Disturbing signals reaching Jeffman News are pointing to the fact that some three students are feared dead and a teacher critically wounded when Government Bilingual High School, Ekondo Titi, Ndian division, South West Region, was attacked by gunmen on November 24 2021 in the early morning. According to sketchy reports reaching our newsroom as we were going to press, several other students were injured in the attack where explosives were also used.
