THE NEW CAMEROON AS A HUMANE NATION

 Cameroon on a Map of the World



Triple Agent, Double Cross


 

We are living in an age where the inflexible and radical ideologies of the left and the right have been discredited, at a time that mankind's advancement can be guaranteed only in liberal societies that are democratic and  that protect the civil rights of  their citizens. These societies should be against what is wrong and protect what is right. Exponents of change should strive for a humane nation or society that can find a place in the 21st century among the community of progressive nations.

In the struggle to dismantle one of the bastions of  kleptocracy, dictatorship and  neo-colonialism in Africa, exponents of change need to learn to be critical and self critical; they need to judge people's mind, ideas and actions, and not base their judgments on the opposing person's ancestral origins, ethnicity, race, religion, region or country. For the detractors who have not made the psychosocial advancement into political humanitarians needed to build the New Cameroon that is expected to play a positive role in the advancement of world civilization, it should be pointed out  that a humane society is to the interest of all within its borders. We might get a better picture of what our destiny should look like if we consider our nation as a block that has to fit into a big jigsaw puzzle that is the world.

Dismantling the Anachronistic-French-imposed System in Cameroon, and Founding the New Cameroon that is a Federation

The anachronistic French-imposed system in Cameroon needs to be dismantled for anything meaningful, sustainable, unifying, and progressive to take roots in our beloved but haunted Cameroon being ravaged by those who did not contribute to its independence and reunification. The problem in that beloved triangle in the heart of Africa otherwise called “The Microcosm of Africa” or “Africa in miniature” is not between Anglophones and Francophones. Make the government 80% Anglophone and 20% Francophone with the system in place and with the positions in high office not having been won through the genuine choice of the people, and the problem would still be there. The half a century system is one managed by compradors, most of whom have little concern for the wellbeing of Cameroon. They do not truly have Cameroon at heart. Cameroon is like a person having cancer with all the symptoms that come with it---pain, fatigue, weight loss, cough, fever, etc.  Yet we find that the custodians of the syst

WHO THE ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE ARE AND HOW THEY ARE FIGHTING AGAINST CHANGE

Image
 Culled from the blog “New Cameroon Views” The vast majority of the Cameroonian people are aware of the historical revelation that change is inevitable in Cameroon. Still this craving for change since 1910 has not brought about the realization of the New Cameroon. We have all been victims in this difficult, tortuous, traitorous and unsuccessful drive for change. The execution of our first nationalist leaders (Martin Paul Samba and Rudolf Duala Manga Bell) by the German colonial army in 1914, our indifference over that loss, our quiet acceptance of the partition of German Kamerun by Britain and France into British Cameroons and French Cameroun, and the methodical suppression and brainwashing of our nationalism were all indications of the difficulties ahead for the Cameroonian struggle. Yes, we were in a state of lethargy for three decades after partition, a lethargy that left us without the enthusiasm and an organized force to repudiate the imposed pa
