Hello Mr. Epiengome,
Welcome once more to matango house. It seems you have already started imbibing some of the matango. Having said that, let me ask you what you really expect of the Lamidos, Chiefs, Fons, and ..... Have we not accepted that they, the royals, are auxiliaries of Paul Biya's administration? So, what is wrong when they all bow down to their boss? In fact, the NW Fons are more honest and practical to crown him their Fon of Fons. What are the royals of other ethnic groups waiting for? When are the SW Chiefs going to crown him Chief of Chiefs? My dear, be real. Oh Lord, I am already getting drunk when the day is still too young in matango house. Welcome again.

Southwest chiefs may not have the clout and command of their opposite
numbers in the Northwest or West. But even in iconoclastic Southwest,
there is royalty and Chief S.M.L. Endeley is one of those at its
summit, and I must say it brought tears to my eyes to see him
virtually bent over before anybody, be he the President of the world,
and worse still in his own bailiwick.
It means he himself does not measure the regal weight he carries. That
kind of obeisance is acceptable from smaller chiefs, and even from the
two Prime Ministers he gave Biya, not from him - the embodiment of the
Bakweri patriarchy.
What I say of HRH Endeley, I would say of Nfon V.E. Mukete. And if
some archive produced a picture of NW Fon doing the same thing, it
would be just as unacceptable. If Biya has the brashness of allowing
Beti patriarchs to kowtow before him (which I doubt) encounters with
high level royalty from the West, Northwest and West should make him
think twice. Let historians and researchers also look at pictures of
his meetings with the Sultan of Rey Bouba, for instance.
So let's not defend the indefensible. We can understand that old
habits hardly die - as a long-serving magistrate in a country where
the judiciary is under the thumb of the executive, HRH SMLE may still
be seeing himself only as an ordinary retired civil servant in front
of the Colossus President. Just remind him he is His Royal Highness,
and not the two-for-sixpence ones.
