Finally, that much dreaded software to calibrate and correct our (all of us) typo and outright grammatical errors is now an imperative. As they say; no one is infallible. The proof; self proclaimed Guru (of what) usually bamboozles us with high sounding prose, reminding some of us how our writings reflect our speech patterns and how our "village mentalities" developed from our primitive vernacular base...but he too makes the same mistakes all of us are "guilty" of.

 

There is absolutely nothing new in this 2013 Konde reincarnation of Bamendrous bashing and splattering tapinostic aberration (its like he simply went into his archives and reproduced one of his earlier mails, hoping it would generate another round of bitter diatribe prone exchanges which he might eventually use as basis for another book scheme). I pray no one falls for that cheap distraction. This is 2013 and we have more pressing business at hand than worry about disgruntled societal renegades and agents provocateurs.

 

Bamenda panapo tok say: "Old man wey ih dey carry small girl sleep no suppose to complain when the girl slap am for public. Dem say if woman no tall, she must get better bobbie or better yansh bicos she no fit lose two things one time".

 

Happy New Year to you all.

It is interesting to note that many of you, whose forebears had no inkling of the content of Cameroon nationalism, primitive vilagers that they were, should now rise to write about British Southern Cameroons and French Cameroun. The rubbish that people like SAF spew forth to feign sophistication among people who ought not to discuss politics. is very telling.  Be warned, SAF.  If this trend of stupidity initiated by you does not cease, the Guru will come full-force after you.  You pretentiousness must stop, you who descended from the remote hills of the hinterland to receive the rudiments of civilization from the coastal town of Victoria.  We, the Victoria boys invariably referred to you fellow from yonda (Graffi) as "foreigners" because you were different in appearance, attirude, and general comportment.

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

The Guru

Mr. Poufong,

 

I indicated that the episodes were an interesting expose of his experience in French Cameroun and the British Southern Cameroons.  All I aked was:  What is the point?  If your objective was simply to provide an archeological dig on his bio, then say so.  I found it to be very interesting.
