FOR THE ATTENTION OF ALL
Mishe,
Are you like most of us frustrated about this tragedy? Do you call on the leaders of the Cameroons to do something about this infernal carnage on the death traps in the country called roads? You are preaching in a desert! Have you heard of autocracy, colonialism "under false pretenses" and neocolonialism? That is the country's malady.
Don't you believe that the lack of means to construct and maintain roads, among others, is related to this diabolical triumvirate? Don't you see a causal relation between this political regime and the general plight of a people or peoples? They are victims of a cankerworm that has invaded their whole body politic, economic, social and cultural. Has this three-fang monster usurped and monopolized the plant's nutrients from Mother Earth? If so, why do you think the roots, the stem, branches and leaves should survive, thrive and not perish?
This being the case, why are you surprised of the pervasiveness of the death toll on the east and west of the Matazem in Santa, Tombel in Meme and Mungo in Tiko? Why are you dismayed of what the Godforsaken folks of the Cameroons call roads, airways, railways, prisons (New Bells and Nkondengis), Brigades d'Intervention Rapide (BIR), Gendarmerie and Police "law enforcement" cells, detention centers are doing? Also, what Military Tribunals, where soldier-judges and prosecutors hold total sway to ensure the impunity of uniformed officers of an omnipotent state?
Do you know any friend, acquaintance or family that has not lost a person on the alter of one of these death traps? If you don't, let me tell you. In the last decade, due to deplorable road conditions, my family and relatives have lost four children: two in a ghastly accident on the Yaounde-Bafousam highway - a judge and a director of a parastatal corporation; one on the Tiko-Douala road truck/passenger accident that killed seventy passengers last year. To complete the black list, the fourth, a high school graduate teacher three years ago. He was arbitrarily arrested and detained by a gendarme based on an alleged "chasing of a dossier" deal complaint by a woman to a gendarme boy friend officer. He died in detention under unknown circumstances. After futile efforts by the family for three weeks to obtain an autopsy order from the Commissaire du Gouvernement of the military tribunal, his father asked for a removal of his remains for burial in his homeland of Southern Cameroons. Like many victims of the police state's agents, his remains returned home for internment - without his family benefitting from the the life president's privilege of an autopsy and an investigation to determine the cause of his death. Thus, the rule of state security prevails over justice to subjects of an imperialist autocracy and an annexed state - who like a slave people - have, no right that the master is bound to respect.
So, Brother Mishe Fon, as the Pidginophones say, "wheti happen fo cacao, go happen fo coffi". "Ca n'arrive pas qu'aux autres" (Bad things happen only to others). To end, high death toll on roads, especially in cursed oil-rich Southern Cameroons, has its roots in despotism, colonialism and neocolonialism. It is just a little tip of an iceberg. A proper therapy has to address the root causes. An abscess has to be excised and the pus removed for the patient to recover, live and thrive.

BREAKING NEWSAnother accident last night on the Yaoundé - Bafoussam "High Way" has dramatically claimed the Life of a prominent SHESAN and his son. Mr. PATRICK NKIMBENG. Those in Boston, Massachusetts will know him as he studied at the University of Lowell before returning to Cameroon several years ago to become one of the Directors of CIMENCAM in Douala, as one of their Engineers). We were at the Tuma's last night at the wake of the young lady (Medical Student studying at one of the adjacent US Islands who died a few days ago) when someone's phone rang about midnight to announce the tragic and untimely death of Mr. Nkimbeng Patrick and his son (an American/Cameroon citizen).Something has to be done...IMMEDIATELY...to stop the carnage. Imagine how many Cameroonians are dying on daily basis from preventable deaths. If you guys are not angry; I am. What is really wrong with these people in Yaoundé? What stops "Parliament" or the President from enacting "Laws" making a simple DUAL CARRIAGE SYSTEM the order of the day in terms of Road Construction. What is even the difficulty in DIVIDING THE EXISTING USELESS ROADS into two parts by erecting a single line concrete half a meter high "Wall"...TO AVOID COLLISIONS? I am not an Engineer, but it does not take a Rocket Scientist to know that you reduce Fatal Road Accidents by at least 75%, once the road is distinctly demarcated into two separate entities with Road Signs and reflectors. If the Government cannot do it because of "Budgetary concerns:...Can they allow us "We the Citizens" to come up with concrete proposals to stop the carnage? Right now, I am as mad as Ngia Forsuh of Commercial Avenue, Abakwa. This situation cannot continue ad-infinitum. How many more DEATHS before we come to the realization that...it aient right. YES, accidents occur every day, every where in the world BUT the alarming statistics from our own country from outright NEGLECT makes me ask the simple question: WHAT ARE THE SO-CALLED (DEPUTES)REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE DOING IN YAOUNDE? WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT OF PRIME MINISTER PHILEMON YANG DOING SITTING IN THEIR CONFORTABLE AIR-CONDITIONED OFFICES? WHAT IS PRESIDENT BIYA, LE PERE DE LA NATION, COMMANDER OF THE ARMED FORCES, FON OF FONS, SUPER SESSEKOU OF MANYU LAND, ALPHA AND OMEGA OF CPDM etc etc doing in France..sorry in Mvomeka or Etoudi to stop the Inferno?If na Money Jam 4 Ngopna bicos Njimtetes Directeurs PeDeGes ana Ministres dem don teep all NKAP go keep 4 Mbengue; We Cameroonians are prepared to do a real "Coup de Coeur". If only one million Paysans came up with CFA 10,000frs each. i.e only $20.00(dollars); We will have 20 million dollars. While I don't have the expertise to know an Engineering Feasibility Road Construct forecast...my best bet is still that, with that kind of money, we can Contract with local entrepreneurs (with patriotic nomenclature) distributing 20 miles per Contractor and in less than three months...Cameroon will have DUAL CARRIAGE ROAD SYSTEM in all its UBIQUITOUSLLY so-called "AXE LOURDS".Instead of dismissing my suggestion as Far-Fetched, could you guys come up with creative concrete solutions to STOP these UNNECESSARY DEATHS in our Country? You guys tell me: WHAT IS LOURD about the AXE (Why do they even call a road an AXE Routier Douala - Yaoundé or AXE Routier Yaoundé - Bafoussam?) What are they AXE-ing?Na Faya-Wood?As you must have noticed; I have TEARS in my EYES while Catarrh dey kommot 4 my nose writing this piece. This is serious business. That is why I have not knacked Njakri inside to water down the importance of the message. I want many other Cameroonians to join me in CRYING FOR OUR BELOVED COUNTRY. We have to say at some point: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. THE RECREATION IS OVER. IF OUR LEADERS DON'T WANT TO TAKE THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES...I am sorry...WE WILL HAVE TO FORCE THEM TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT.Over to You?Mishe FonOn Saturday, April 19, 2014 5:42 PM, Albert Nguidjol <albnguidj@yahoo.fr> wrote:

Subject: Re: [cameroon_politics] A Fatal Accident That Left A Cameroon-American Dead Along The Kumba - Buea Road [6 Attachments]
Did you say her family has refused to travel to Cameroon? Na wa-ooh!!!Family,How does anyone or how could anyone survive a fatal accident like this or should I ask, was it their time to die. DESTINY ???? I ask again. Lord have mercy upon us. I was driving from Buea to Kumba to visit some friends, along the Buea - Kumba road just after the city of BOMBE, there I came across this gruesome accident that left two dead to include a Cameroonian-American lady who was being taken to the airport to board her flight back to the United States of America. The driver of this truck completely lost it, left his lane, came across, struck head-on with this car killing two instantly. The Cameroonian-American, a Bakossi lady who lived in the Washington, DC area then later moved to Houston, TX., and her driver were pronounced dead on the scene. At this particular moment, arrangements are being made to bring her remains back to her family in the United States as her family has refused to travel to Cameroon. May we continue to pray. Scroll down.<IMG_0050.JPG>Sango Mot'a Muenya at the Scene<IMG_0044.JPG>The front of this car was leveled killing the two instantly. God, help us.<IMG_0048.JPG>How does anyone survive this Ghastly accident ?<IMG_0045.JPG>Take a look. What can the Cameroon Government "DOT" learn from such a carelessaccident like this ? Improve and Emphasize Safety Awareness and Safe Driving ?<IMG_0047.JPG>What do you do to the driver of this truck ? Roast him or Shoot him to death, that is,if it were not a Mechanical error/fault, such as brakes.<IMG_0043.JPG>Not a good scene.__._,_.___
