My goal has been to wake South West Region peoples from their slumber and complacency towards the North West Region's eternal self-serving intrigues. Denis Tambe The whole province is SLEEPING OR IN SLUMBER and it is you and you alone that comes to wake them. If I abuse my North West people as you are doing with your SW people above, they will not find it funny. I have stated and re-stated. YOUR PRETENDED BLASTING AND INVOLVEMENT OF THE SCNC IN ALL YOU SAY OR WRITE IS SELF-SERVING. IF IS ALL ABOUT YOU TRYING TO CATCH AGBOR TABI'S ATTENTION AND NOW SENATOR MUKETE'S ATTENTION. THE SCNC HAS NEVER STOPPED YOU FROM BEING APPOINTED IN ALL THESE YEARS OF TRYING. KEEP TRYING BUT LEAVE THE SCNC OUT OF IT. THE SCNC MIGHT BE THE EASY ROUTE FOR YOUR POLITICAL SELF ACTUALISATION BUT IT IS NOT THE ONLY ROUTE. This Senator book promotion route to appointment is more civil than the tried and failed SCNC bashing route. Regards Tumasang

Martin,
I am not sure your Northwest and SCNC constituency appreciates your honest admission that I am scoring goals and getting under its skin. Your honesty is lawyerly, though. Thanks.
Your irascible and disjointed writing had long given me cause to believe that I have seriously undermined your North West/SCNC hegemony schemes and contriving.
My goal has been to wake South West Region peoples from their slumber and complacency towards the North West Region's eternal self-serving intrigues. Secessionist clap trap is increasingly a dead letter with many discerning South Westerners.
Now to Dr Emmanuel Konde's score card. You are seemingly too destabilized by my astute analysis of North West/South West politics that you cannot grasp his thrust: Southwest 2 (Chief Mukete & Hon. Mbile biographies). North West 1 (Chief Angwafor biography).
Please take it easy and stop remonstrating disjointedly against self-evident truth.

No problem with you since from all indications you are not seeking a government post. We will be after Tambe since he wants to get into government. What if he sells millions of copies of Senator Mukete's books and he recommends him to be a District Officer (DO) in Mezam. We will all be finished. SW2, NW 1: Indeed. At least some victory finally with Dennis Tambe as no 9 scoring the winning GOAL!!!!!!!!! for you which you have tried over the years but did not score. Guru, if I realise you are enjoying the discussion, I will stop it. I do not like to see you enjoying. I will not respond again until you tell me you are not enjoying it anymore hahaha.

A few years back it was the Guru against all, when our Graffi brothers ganged-up on him (me) and all cowered to the vituperations of the choir safe Prince Hamilton Ayuk.
I have always noted that democracy can never flower in Cameroon until such time that those who cuddle autocrats part company with the latter. Yes, until such time that Nothwesterners change their political culture, the possibility for cooperation between the two Anglophone regions will remain a distant dream. Southwesterners have been repeatedly subjected to the nightmarish visions emanating from the North West that dreams no longer feature in their sleep.
Tumasang's idea of North West population-domination presupposes democracy among a populace that does not understand democracy. Therefore, Mr. Denis Tambe must be renounced by the publisher of Chief Mukete's book before the Northwesters controlled by Tumasang can be released to buy the book. Incidentally, two traditional chiefs have done what only one modern Anglophone political actor of the nationalist era could do: Hon. Mobile, Fon Angwafor and Chief Mukete. The score at this juncture, despite the population disparity, is: South West 2; North West 1.
Nobody can argue with numbers and the Guru is keeping the score.

Dear Martin,
Senator (Nhon) Victor Mukete's book has also been published in French. Chief Mukete is a nationalist like my humble self and would not consider limiting his audience to Anglophones. He is not parochial in his thinking, like your SCNC crowd.
No Cameroonian worth his salt will heed to your senseless diatribe.
What has my personal opinion or yours got to do with knowledge enhancement? Most Cameroonians will not let their cultural backgrounds inhibit their quest for enlightenment.
Geometric population growth is a well-established fact in the North West Province where some traditional rulers have one hundred wives and three to four hundred children. This is why marauding hordes from the North West in search of opportunity have inundated the South West Province and are depriving indigenous people of their livelihood. You confirmed this clearly in your own write-up hailing the husbandry of the North West and decrying South West laziness.
Go get your apology from someone else, not from this ebullient renaissance man -prince, aristocrat, lawyer, financcier, educator, statesman, classical philosopher, philanthropist, SCNC nemesis.

We also agree that the majority of these Anglophones are North Westerners by population and treasury. We agree that this big population of Anglophones who are mostly North Westerners would be exploited to make as much sales as possible. We remember with ALARM that this same Denis Tambe promoting the book is infamous for having described North Westerners as " GEOMETRICALLY BREEDING OR PROCREATING". We note that this North West hating Denis Tambe will for ever be remembered for the above quote and his name shall be immortal on the tongues of both North Westerners and South Westerners for the above quote. We realise that the above quote is comparable only to the infamous " COME NO GO" quote of Oben Ashu. We are sincerely concerned as to whether "Raffia Bag Carrying Geometrically Breeding" Northern Westerners would use the population from the geometrical breeding to purchase a product marketed or promoted by the said Denis Tambe. We strongly recommend that the publishers of the book publish a statement dissociating themselves from the said Denis Tambe and his "GEOMETRICAL BREEDING" views of North Westerners. We also warn Denis Tambe that such right wing views have economic consequences. He should either apologise and withdraw his views or dissociate himself from the published book because his association with the book is a marketing disaster for the raffia bag hanging constituency who are to buy the book. Regards Tumasang.

We look forward to your no holds barred ebullient reviews.
I agree with you that the reviews of Dr, Munzu and Dr. Ngwafor were respectfully restrained and did not wet our appetites to read Senator (Nhon) Victor Mukete's tour de force historical and political account.
The book is now available in Cameroon at Messapresse and Presbook and should soon go on sale on Amazon.
Best regards,
Dennis

It however strikes me as disingenuous the excerpt of the book review below:
"Senator Mukete refuses to walk in the ugly path of destructive selfishness and does not even perceive himself as a hero. Instead, his book situates the other actors of the reunification story – Victor Anomah Ngu, Ebai Mbiwan, Jacob Achidi Kisob, S.T. Muna, N.N. Mbile, John N. Foncha, R.J.K. Dibonge, S.A. George (who Nfon Mukete thinks is “undoubtedly one of the heroes of the reunification struggle, as he devoted most of his time to the nationalist cause”), and so passing on the message that leadership is a team sport. However Nfon V.E. Mukete regards himself as an actor, an active participant, involved in the reunification chronicle. My Odyssey, is not only laced with historical facts, but it is substantiated with documentary evidence of his involvement and participation in Cameroon’s reunification story. "
I believe Prof. Ngwafor was not thinking of Pa (read Senator) Mukete's age when he was writing this review. The man is past senility (some say he is 101 years old). Only in a gerontocracy can the word "team" be construed to mean hanging-on like a vampire until death. At 100+ tears and counting, it is inconceivable that Chief, Senator Mukete is still writing his story.
Assuming arguendo, that by some combination of circumstance, Anglophones achieve "independence" it will be anyone's guess if Senator Mukete will add an epilogue to his story. My advice to Pa Mukete is to quit the stage while there are people in the audience. Pa Mukete like Mbombo Njoya (Sports Minister in 1964), Achidi Achu, Nkwain and other gerontocrats, including Paul Biya should stand down and stand tall; or they will be pulled down forcefully by Cameroonian youths who have been left no choice.
Ekinneh SENATOR (NFON) V.E. MUKETE’S MY ODYSSEY
Book Review by Prof. Ephraim N. NGWAFOR
Senator (Nfon) V.E. Mukete’s My Odyssey: The Story of Cameroon’s Reunification is an intriguing, historical narrative that combines the personal, individual account of one man’s life and the one nation’s destiny. Nfon Mukete’s account leading up to reunification weaves together the social and political sequence of events – the risks, aspirations, the possibilities of individual commitment and national triumph. The Senator’s story, like the ancient Greek legends, places him in the arena of the struggle for reunification.
Senator Mukete refuses to walk in the ugly path of destructive selfishness and does not even perceive himself as a hero. Instead, his book situates the other actors of the reunification story – Victor Anomah Ngu, Ebai Mbiwan, Jacob Achidi Kisob, S.T. Muna, N.N. Mbile, John N. Foncha, R.J.K. Dibonge, S.A. George (who Nfon Mukete thinks is “undoubtedly one of the heroes of the reunification struggle, as he devoted most of his time to the nationalist cause”), and so passing on the message that leadership is a team sport. However Nfon V.E. Mukete regards himself as an actor, an active participant, involved in the reunification chronicle. My Odyssey, is not only laced with historical facts, but it is substantiated with documentary evidence of his involvement and participation in Cameroon’s reunification story.
One can rightly posit the contention that inadvertently, his studies, experiences and stay in Nigeria, and his student days in the UK prepared him for involvement in this noble assignment. The true mettle of a man
is tested when you can recognize where he stands in times of challenge,
adversity and controversy. In a society where moral principles have lost their enigmatic lustre only the good-hearted make the grade. Small wonder that the name V.E. Mukete never found itself in the notes on the various Commissions of Inquiry in West Cameroon, meant to examine matters of embezzlement of public funds. Senator Mukete’s success story is founded on his belief that one cannot reach good ends through evil means and that well conceived actions should always take precedence over accolades.
CONCLUSION
Sometimes Nfon V.E. Mukete’s My Odyssey, like a work of fiction, creates moments of suspense in the reader . Each statement, each claim, each assertion that Senator Mukete makes in My Odyssey is validated by either a letter or some other historical document. Unlike some Cameroonian historical books that largely rely on hearsay and doubtful historical material, Senator V.E. Mukete’s My Odyssey is a monumental historical pacesetter that utilizes first hand historical documents that trace one man’s journey (like the ten year homeward journey of the Greek hero, Odysseus, King of Ithaca, after the Trojan War) on the arduous passage of the agonizing odyssey of authentic nationhood. The uniform thread in this story is real.
