“Our future is precious, please don’t waste it for one man… changing article 6.2 of the Cameroonian Constitution will only help weaken the country’s institutions which stand as the only barriers against barbarism”.
A group of Cameroonian intellectuals, writers, artists and journalists, joined by a number of their African colleagues have criticized attempts by President Paul Biya to scrap presidential term limits. They have called on CPDM members of Parliament who have a majority in Parliament to act “before its too late”.
Act Before It’s Too Late! - An Appeal to CPDM Parliamentarians
Dear Representatives:
It is not only dangerous but also criminal for the Head of State to play games with the Constitution. Attempting to amend Article 6 of the Constitution of the Republic of Cameroon which limits presidential tenure to two terms is, undoubtedly, one of those crimes for which our country shall pay an onerous price in the future. Our appeal for restraint derives not only from the articles written by our compatriots in the wake of a bloodbath that gave legal status to our country’s legal institutions in 1990; but more importantly from the protection that the Constitution and its clauses guarantee every Cameroonian against acts of barbarity. It is for the sake of social stability founded on the sacred principle of respect for legislative texts that we appeal to your conscience!
The president has availed himself of the de facto majority accorded him in the National Assembly by you, CPDM parliamentarians, to trample on the constitution of this land. Worse still, he has had recourse to armed elements of the police force to silence those dissenting voices that have dared to openly object to his scheme. Quite apart from his claim that “all the provinces are in support of a constitutional amendment”, we are aware of the fact that he has simply taken advantage of fear of the unknown that his administration has instilled in you in order to give the impression that he is the sole dependable alternative for our country in 2001.
For once show some courage; steer clear of infamy! Our future is priceless; do not gamble with it! Most importantly do not play with fire! Amending Article 6 of the Constitution of the Republic of Cameroon would weaken the institutions that protect Cameroonian citizens against act of barbaric abuse. For too long, we have lived as if we do not see the mishaps that have befallen our neighbors. Suffice it to say that recent incidents in Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Somalia, not forgetting Chad testify to the fact that a single foul play with the Constitution could plunge the entire nation into insurmountable chaos. The civil strife that these countries have experienced lends ample credibility to our conviction that Cameroon’s social stability is fragile, very fragile indeed. Cameroonians are peace-lovers; do not compromise it! Otherwise, you shall be judged in front of the tribunal of History.

Eteki Elame, so this is your own version of spin?. Well, go ahead and touch that constitution and see what happens next. The game is just beginning. I am boldly going to remind you and members of your war room that the days ahead will and never gonna be rosy for you guys any longer.
Its a pity you guys have chosen to sell the Southwest for a cheap. Playing junior partner in a coalition of smooth criminals.For those who fear a Kenya style scenario, i got to remind them, no one wants it, but if imposed on the suffering majority, then with our backs against the wall we will fight back. And guess what, the battle will not be between tribes , but a revolt against the present smooth criminal elites. Yes Elame you just read that. This is our time. We will prevail. Come what may. You guys have connived with your neocolonial agents in Yaounde to deny the very people you guys claim to represent their God given rights to hire and fire their leaders. You guys have chosen to impose yourself on the greater majority through those organised gimmicks that come around for elections. Even the simple decentralisation which the anointed one( according to Eteki) promised has been botched because he trust no one than his elitist ethno-fascist cliques in Yaounde. Yesterday it was New deal, today its Grand ambition. The anointed holy father is desperate for a legacy. Well, the debate is over. Its as simple as that. He got three more years, no less no more. Today because times are tough for you guys, a new communication war room has been set up in the service of the prime minister to play spin. Eteki , welcome to the forum. Thanks you came.We had being waiting for that channel of communication so that we could hint you guys of what is to come. Thank God you came Eteki.Read this Mola, the battle lines have been drawn. Its now an issue of we, progressive forces against the smooth criminal elites like Eteki. We are fired up more than ever before. Victory will be ours, come what may.Yes i guess you read that.That was the message we had desperately hoped to pass on.Once again i appreciate you came Elame.
Eteki, remember the February revolt,i'm happy its still fresh in your mind. It came like a surprise. I can imagine how scared you and your friends were. Your masters were forced to call in special units and your most elite forces into the cities. Can you imagine that. In the most peaceful country in Africa.(Did i just say that?oops) So Eteki Elame, what happened with that corrupt Gendarme and Police corp you guys badly hoped will save your asses when the gates of Yaounde get stormed? Heheheeee. So we now see how vulnerable the entire setup is. I can see the panic, fear that someone want to take away your garri so soon. Well the next brouhaha is on the way. The kumbaya will not miss the target next time. The timing will be the people's chosen. Its time to play. The house of cat is about to crumble.Yes it will i bet you Eteki. People of the Cameroons, rest assured. Their days are........ The likes of Eteki would soon be seeking asylum somewhere in those hideouts of yours.Treat him well when he does arrive. Eteki, steal as much money as you can now.Dont say i did not tell you. I can even help you to transfer some to one of my accounts in ......because once again,dont say i did not tell you . Oh, greet massa for me.

Dear Mr Komepule,
I wish your vision of Cameroonian embassies abroad reflected reality. Unfortunately it is not so. I reside in the UK and ask anyone who`s had to deal with our representatives here, they`ll tell you the same story: sloppy, rude (front desk) staff; incitement to bribe for ordinary services; no proper signage; in brief, a very poor advertisement for Cameroon. Worst of all it is inconceivable that a "bilingual" (English/French) country cannot find a anglophone person to man the reception of their embassy within the English-speaking country of reference.

In every Royal Court, even the primitive Vichy African ones like that of la Republique Francaise du Cameroun, there are Court Jesters whose role is to entertain the Court. Two of them, Southern Cameroonians, naturally, have been dispatch for our entertainment here.
Why these two fine gentlemen have chosen to expose and ridicule themselves in such a manner is probably for the same reason that Mr Paul Biya, the Master Sorcerer, flexes his 75 year old atrophied muscles, and then a few days later from under the table in his residence, behind the high walls and guards; offer the conscripts he manages for the benefit of his French masters a 15% pay increase.
And after the Master Sorcerer's thorough schooling from the Apprentice Sorcerers, he then sends poor Mr Inoni to explain his actions to his still captive and impoverished citizens, while he remains in hiding. Then Mr Inoni dispatches these two fine gentlemen to come engage in their version of spin. Here too, they get schooled like the 75 year old French puppet!
Like Marie Antoinette (her resemblance to Biya is quite remarkable), Paul Biya with his 15% pay raise, to strangely begin on April Fools Day, is saying: "Let them eat cake." And we all know what followed after that declaration.

I wish to ask Mr. Po Mbia whether these demonstrations are directed at the quality of our embassy staff, or the Government? I agree with you about the staff in the High Commission in London and elsewhere. They are sloppy and rude, thats why they would not transmit the messages carried by the demonstrators to Government, and therefore, its a waste of time demonstarting within the precints of our Embassies.
I would continue to say that the Diaspora community has lots of respectable and intelligent men and women who could be a formidable force to reckon with if they constitute themselves as a strategic lobby on several issues with Government and other international partners.
As for Mr. Luap Ayib, it is all these abstraction and insults which have lead to nothing. I do not understand what issues you are stating, what solutions you propose. All these bla-bla and big talk would not take us anywhere.
Posted by: Kevin Komepule | March 11, 2008 at 04:01 AM
Dear Mr. Luap Ayib,
I think it is you who has been dispatched here by your SCNC commnand to amuse us with jokes and laughter and yet empty talk, which is characteristic of your utopic state of Southern Cameroons.
In a forum for reasonable debates such as this, your likes with water heads should not participate if you have nothng concrete rather than invectives to offer.
However, when intellectual midgets like you get interested in things thye do not master, then I see danger for their cause in the horizon.
Posted by: Samuel Chidong | March 11, 2008 at 04:20 AM
Kevin, you seem to be closer to getting my point. But the abstractions and insults are really yours. For neither you, Mr Inoni nor Mr Biya have a say in substantive issues affecting your country, la Republique Francaise du Cameroun.
The Economy--Monetary policy controls, through the CFA, is in the hands of France. Fiscal policy for the longest of time has been the domain of the IMF and World Bank through their SAPs (it will be interesting to see how the recent fiscal decisions made in a fit of panic by Biya and his masters play out ultimately.)
The Politics--Political (including military),constitutional and its institutional orientation, since 1960 has been the Cellule Africain in the French presidency's domain. Your national motto: Paix, Travaille, Patrie, is a variation of the Nazi Vichy motto of conquered France which was: Travaille, Famille, Patrie! Replace your vaunted "paix" with "famille" and you understand where your place in the world is (this is true for a majority of "former" French colonies). The French had good reason for giving you that national motto, for they are dealing (thru Ahidjo and now Biya) with you the way the Nazis dealt with those they conquered. For themselves, once the Nazis were driven out, they reverted and retained their old motto: Liberte, Egalite and Fraternite. Think about it.
When the moment for "Liberte, Egalite and Fraternite" rings in the Cameroons, then we will move from the abstract to reality, when Africans like Biyas and Inonis, Etekis, Kevins, Samuel Chidongs will have become the masters of their own destinies.
However, those who went on the streets in February have infinitely a better understanding of reality, and that is why in places like Douala, Kumba and Bamenda, French business interests like Orange and PMUC kiosks, and the Brasseries were disproportionately targeted. It is through these building revolts that freedom from the Vichy-Nazi inspired "paix, travaille, patrie" bondage will be obtained.
It is an abstraction to think that, for people whose immediate and historical recourse is brute force, peaceful and civilised excahnges, as Kevin wants us to believe, carries substantive weight. Remember Biya's "Qui sont-ils?" The French and their puppet, Biya, responded because they were ambushed. And fascist regimes respond only to "ambushes". Why is parliament not involved in such decisions that affect the purse strings they purport to control? Because there can not be any civilised deliberations when an only ambush will do. Who is living in the abstract by trying to engage us here?
The fact, my friends, at the risk of being redundant, is la Republique Francaise du Cameroun is owned by France. Therefore, the substantive decisions that affect that country is made by France and their various technical advisers, visible and invisible, around the place (the others like the Americans and others understand and accept this arrangement and will only go so far). The Cooperation Agreements, from military to commercial, that bind Cameroun (and other francophone African countries) to France, most of which you court jesters know nothing of the details make it so.
That is the big picture, and if it sounds abstract, tough. And if this discussion seems to be taking a different turn, so be it. For this is not CRTV, Cameroon Tribune or a press conference by Hamidou Yaya, where you of the regime get to control the orientation of the debate. Here, the people rule.
And Mr. Samuel Chindong, I am a francophone, a very cosmopolitan one at that, who supports the Southern Cameroons cause because they have been badly treated and very illegally so. I have been in settings with no anglophones (and where none are allowed) and understand how much they have been victimized, and this goes beyond Yaounde. I will help the SCNC command if the ask for my help. But I also want French Cameroun to be free. There must be a rupture (a quite popular term in Africa-France discussions these days), but let me loosely quote what a French journalist wrote not so long ago: "“En Afrique, la France se bat depuis cinquante ans pour conserver son empire. La decolonization n’a pas été une rupture, juste une étape.” I want a rupture with the past, and neither Biya, Inoni, Eteki or Kevin represents that.
A bientôt!

Dear Elame/ Kevin,
Give me a brake here. We all agree on the concept of changing constitutions. But there must be a good motive grounded on the general interest and not promoting the selfish interest of a particular group or individual. You agree with me/us Biya’s motive of daring to amend article 6(2) is a selfish one.
Selfish because changing article 6(2), giving that Biya would stop at nothing to rig elections as he has always done in the past would certainly guarantee him a life Presidency. Cameroonians don’t want him again. He has ruled for 25 years in which Cameroonians if not bleeding, they are crying and if not crying, they are sweating with pain caused by the Etudi tyrant.
Look at corruption? If Biya prosecuted (including himself) all his colleagues who have looted the national treasury with the same energy that he is using to arrest and summarily sending to prison without due process of the law, innocent citizens who where democratically protesting for their rights, Cameroon would be the least corrupt country on earth. But Biya knows no shame.
The entire world is observing Cameroon and when payback day will come some of you insulting Diasporas would seek for refuge overseas. Biya and the day we would find him in the streets in any country abroad we would arrest him and try him in a Kangaroo court just like he is doing to fellow Cameroonians. We all know why Biya has embarked on this unpopular and inhumane crackdown.
This is aimed at instilling fear into people’s minds and weakening any form of resistance to his plans to change the fundamental law. And we strongly condemn him and his regime for all the crimes against Cameroonian people. The people of Cameroon are still waiting for the autonomous regions, the Senate and the Constitutional Counsel to be put in place.
Article 6(2) is strong and reflects an internationally acceptable trend that Biya knows and endorsed in 1996, hence trying to change the rule at the end his mandate is illegal and Biya should be tried in a court of law for all his crime against humanity. He knows this that is why he wants to die in power and he would stop at nothing if only to accomplish such an unpopular measure. Should he continue the way he is going he would be delivered to his faith?

Mr "Luap Ayib", you get small sense oh!!! I like your write-up; ladden with facts and solid analysis
Posted by: Constance | March 11, 2008 at 07:54 PM
Mr Luap Ayib,
I think you have misssed the point completely in this discussion. The initial point of focus was on a possible Constitutional amendment of the 1996 Constitutional law, and not how sovereign La Republique Francaise du Cameroun is, or the issue of the liberation of Anglophone Cameroon. That would certainly be the subject of another debate at an appropriate time.
No matter how brillant an anlysis may be; when it is out of context, it serves no purpose to the urgency of the problem at hand, and its void.
Lets agree that Cameroonian don't want Biya again, how do they get rid of him? As you say, the entire world has been watching this regime for long and pay back time would come, I don't see this time coming in the near furture with only theoretical analyses such as yours without action. The international community itself, seem to be helpless in the face of regime excesses in Africa which don't affect their economic and imperialist intersts. Atleast Mugabe has challenged them on this score.
I would not hasten to draw fast conclusions that the violence of the recent days were partly directed at French interest because of their imperialistic diplomacy, not absolutely. Social( weak pruchasing power, rise in prices of basic commodities etc..) and political (the constitutional amendment issue and freedom of association and expression) are intricately linked to the recent events.
Since Mr. Luap Ayib opines that this regime reacts only to ambushes, why does he and his likes not organise one to topple the present system?
Our problem; I mean all of us, including those diluted Francophones who can't make it in their sub-system, and would like to pass for Anglophones, because as Anglophone it is easy to cry foul, is that of too much noise, rhetoric, and no action.
This regime would produce several Biyas' when blue prints cannot be tranformed into concrete actions. This continous contemplation is what is driving once enthusiatic for change Cameroonians timid.
Mr Luap Ayib, I hope those are his true names, is propbably not living the Cameroonian reality, in the fools paradise in which he is, he still sees everything in Cameroon from the point of view of colonialism and exploitation. When you return home, you wuld find your country a changed destination from what you left several years ago, and have never set foot on since then.

Elame,

President of Cameroon cited before International Criminal Court (ICC)
Louis Egbe Mbua
The Living Lights have learnt that Monsieur Paul Biya, President of the Cameroon Republic, has possibly been cited before the International Criminal Court. In the Cameroon's French Newspaper, the Mutations, the Secretary General of the Southern Cameroons People's Organisation, SCAPO, Martin Fon Yembe is quoted as saying, "It's been only two weeks since the President of SCAPO, Kevin Gumne left London to put forward his complaint." Whether Dr. Gumne has already done so or not the paper does not say.
If Paul Biya has already been cited by SCAPO before the International Criminal Court (ICC) in Rome, then this carries a very serious implication. It would mean that Paul Biya may have to be called upon to give evidence or stand trial for genocide and other crimes against humanity. It is interesting to note that Cameroon has not ratified the the Treaty that gave birth to the ICC although they contributed and participated in the creation of the court, according to Mutations. However, there are likely possibilities that those persons cited by SCAPO as having committed multiple genocides and other grievous human crimes, together with Paul Biya, will be pursued by the court as international criminals.
SCAPO recently gave a press release through electronic mail, which has been seen by Living Lights, comparing the Rwandan and Darfour Genocides as having similar, if not the same trend of causes, to what has happened and what is happening in Cameroon, and more gravely what is to come in the country. Mr. Kofi Anan, former UN Secretary General was of particular target for SCAPO's vexations in this matter and that of Cameroon; and Southern Cameroons in particular. According to the press release, Kofi Anan is an unrivalled failed peace-maker as regards preventive diplomatic assault. They cited Rwanda where ethnic tensions exploded into full blown genocide in 1994 under Kofi Anan's indifferent watch, after warnings from the Commander in Charge of UN Peace in Rwanda, and while he was Deputy Secretary General of the UN in charge of Peace Keeping. SCAPO further drew vivid similarities with the on-going brutal genocide in Darfour , Sudan, where again, Anan failed to heed warnings from the US that the Darfour situation amounts to Genocide. Accordingly, therefore, SCAPO insists, they are bound to go a step further than writing letters to official organisation.
The crimes against Paul Biya and other Cameroon leaders are indeed shocking. According to SCAPO, Paul Biya , amongst other crimes, was a co-conspirator in the Lake Nyos disastrous gas incident in 1986 where more than 2000 local people died in the Southern Cameroons; and that he was involved in mass killings of Cameroonians after the abortive 1984 Coup d'Etat; and that SCAPO has evidence of mass graves sited in Mbalmayo, Central Cameroon.
SCAPO also cited killings -- by the Ahidjo Regime of 1958 - 1982 where Paul Biya was central to all state issues -- of up to one million people in Cameroon, including more than 800,000 Bamilekes and Bassas, since 1955; and that Paul Biya and his predecessor have held the peoples of Southern Cameroons and La Republique du Cameroun captive for half a century to commit such unimaginable barbarities.
The recent uprising and mass killings, torture, dehumanisation, and detention in Cameroon tend to support the SCAPO position. Further, Paul Biya's forces shot and killed 3 students of University of Buea, Southern Cameroons, in 2005 when they attempted a peaceful protest in the City. Again in 2006, Police shot and killed at least 2 more students and civilians and wounded hundreds more in the same University. There is mounting evidence of unabated killings, beatings and torture on peaceful demonstrators in Abongmbang, Bamenda, Kumba and Tiko in 2007. The Mutations added insult to Paul Biya's injuries by recalling the disappearance of 9 children of the Bamileke ethnic group who were mysteriously "disappeared" by forces in the pretext of capturing criminals.
The February 2008 riots, it appears, is a standard template by which we may reasonably judge the bellicose attitude of this Cameroon regime in connection to peaceful protests and debates in the socio-politico-economic arena. The meretricious asperity with which Paul Biya went on television and the shameful words he used to attack protesters may, like his shameless unwanted "delinquents" statements, come back to destroy him and his Hallelujah god-worshipers. There is time for everything -- a time to kill and a time to face frightfully retributive justice from the Higher Powers above.

Sophy EWANE,
If you are using your real name,then good day to you.
In times of crisis,the President is seen as the best hope for delivering us from our enemies or even from ourselves. The election of a President is an almost religious task; it intimately affects the life of the spirit, our identity. Who the man is determines in real measure who we are. So if you post anything derogatory about your President you are doing that to your person and other Cameroonians.
We believe in the President because of the belief that great people shape great events.To the average citizen, the governmental process is complex and confusing. An individual who is disatisfied with the performance of the economy might have to spend considerable time learning about the forces that shape it to understand why the economy is acting the way it is. It is easier to believe instead that economic performance is determined by the presidential judgment, that the president always makes the critical difference in the direction of the public policy. Unfortunately the more we expect from the president the more we will be dissappointed.
Posted by: ETEKI ELAME | March 15, 2008 at 11:02 AM
Elame, when you begin to use religious imagery to justify your criminal, genocidal ruler, I worry that you will heedlessly become his companion in crime. That pattern has been seen again and again in history. Mr Elame, you are in very bad company.

Hi be all blessed in Jesus name.

Mainly in prayer and hard work.
I do not pray this or that person move from power and let someone else take over no Go's appoint Kings and prophets and so on.
It looks daft but that is how it works.
No one knows but God and his prophets.
Martin Luther So His Dream Coming to pass now Obama is ON .
It will be Good but Good things are not always God's will.
I am a polititian but a man of God with a word of Grace and power in my life.
God speaks to me time to time about nation even Cameroon, france uk and indivituals.
The present president was given power it was unic to see that in our country i beleive there is a time set by God for all of us to perform and then give acccount to God later.
Let pray our country and our future.
Let Pray that Cameroon may prosper
: spiritually,Intellectually and financially .
Let also pray for political stability.
let pray that those in goverment will be
filled will the Holy-Spirit mind to work for the prosperity of the land.
Let pray that God will bless Cameroon will the spirit to build to Country to the modern standard .
Let pray for the jutice system and the players in that sector.
Let pray for education fron basic and the highest.
Let pray again the spirit of humilietion in goverment and citizens.
Let pray for men of God to perform well and stay pure .

Let pray for the security and arm foces.
Let pray for the media
And then may be God's grace will shine in the Land.

Dear All,
It is with profound regret that I concede to what I can coin a showcase of the highest level of bootlicking by Mr Eteki. It is hard to imagine that such a parrot, a praise singer for the CPDM government could actually have the audacity,the guts to scribble his tainted, wayward, lame opinion on this blog. His postulations are not only dull, lustreless, but without any vestige of reason.
I don't know if he is an adviser qua studies or one of those hand-picked clansmen. But in any case it is disaster to even ponder that the kinds of advisers behind our Head of Government are people who think that longivity in power is what makes a great leader. Or that they are anointed by God.
I implore, beseech each and everyone of you to stop wasting your breath.
