"CAMEROON IS NOW A HIGH RISK INVESTMENT COUNTRY AND IS NOT ATTRACTING ANY MORE FOREIGN INVESTORS"

A. S. Ngwana

After the shameful and disgraceful unconstitutional and illegal amendment of the Constitution in April this year, Cameroon is now going through a dangerous period of uncertainty and apprehension which calls for prayers to avoid catastrophe, calamity and complete chaos.
However we must tackle some urgent matters which affect our standards of living, growth and economic development. The economy is terribly affected, our standards of living are falling, and Cameroon is regressing instead of progressing. <<<<More.>>>>>.

20 MAY CELEBRATIONS: FAKE OR REAL?   

by Mark Bara Bareta  

This question comes to my mind and that of every objective Cameroonian especially those from West of Mungo. Should 20 May be celebrated as a national day in Cameroon?
What has become of 1 October which was the day the two Cameroons (East and West) finally became one following the 11 February 1961 plebiscite? Should 1 October not be a better day to be celebrated as a national day since it was the Reunification day that brings in mind the history and culture of the two Cameroons? More...

CELEBRATING ENSLAVEMENT: DIVIDED WE STAND   

by Ngwa Tagang Ebogo 

One of the tritest assertions I have heard in recent times is the nebulous notion “Celebrating 36 Years of National Integration” as one Anglophone Minister said over state radio. The facts are glaring that the institution of the Unitary State after the May 20, 1972 referendum marked the enslavement of Anglophones in the Cameroons.

Anglophones and Francophones live in separate worlds psychologically which cannot pass even the simplest test for national cohesion. Since the dismantle of the Federation and the birth of the Unitary state over three and one-half decades ago, there is nothing to show for the so-called “National Integration” and the “unholy alliance” has rather bore a catalogue of Anglophone cry of marginalisation, domination and exploitation.

Hague, 20 November 2007 – The hearings of the detainees arrested at a Southern Cameroons National Council (SCNC) press conference in January 2007 have been adjourned yet again.

LIFE OF TORTURE

By Theodore Ndofeng

A major worry of opponents to union with La République du Cameroun prior to the 1961 plebiscite was the fear-inspiring brutality of the former French territory’s security forces that most inhabitants of the British Southern Cameroons had heard so much about.

One of the first acts of the president of the Cameroun Republic, who also became the first president of the Federal Republic of Cameroon, Ahmadou Ahidjo, was to rush in heavily-armed troops to the former Southern Cameroons where the people were accustomed to polite police officers who did not carry guns.

PRESENTING THE SOUTHERN CAMEROONS QUESTION

Atemnkeng Denis.

The Southern Cameroons question is a problem of international law; it is not the domestic problem of one of the parties to the conflict; it is not about the break up of a state; it is not about a group of people within their own state claiming that they have a right to self-determination. It is an issue of restitution; it is an issue of ending years of rape and armed robbery by one people against another; it is an issue of enforcing the respect of territorial boundaries inherited at independence; it is an issue of the illegal acquisition of territory with the attendant colonization of the true owners of the territory. In short, it is a question of forcing the aggressor and expansionist nation to retreat to its rightful international borders. Throughout human history, the answer to colonization and the illegal acquisition of territory has never been decentralization, good governance, power-sharing and so on; the answer to colonization and the subjugation of one people by another is always and ever decolonization.
