Mr. Visha,
You have raised very important issues that call for a deeper reflection. The truth is that we as former British Southern Cameroonians are often the first to shoot ourselves from the back. The reporter might have exaggerated a few things but in the larger context there are signs of danger hanging everywhere. Only those with foresight can or are willing to see or acknowledge. From the day the Presidential Decrees moving Magistrates/Judges was published a few months ago any person with foresight would have predicted this dilemma. Those appointments saw the movement of a common law senior judge as Procureur General in Buea to the President of the court of appeal in Maroua. He was replaced by a Judge of civil law extraction. Another common law judge was moved from Bamenda to Ngaoudere in the Adamawa as Procureur General. All these changes are only a camouflage to destroy the common law system because the judge who was moved from Buea to Maroua for example will have no linguistic and procedural problems doing the job because he has spent a very long time in his career working in different jurisdictions of Cameroun civil law system. The same is not the case with those Francophones who were posted to Bamenda in particular and other courts in the NW&SW regions in general.
Talking about admissions into professional schools, the practice of flooding the few of few professional schools meant for NW & SW with Francophones is an open secret. The Medical School in the university of Buea is another glaring example. I looked at their last intake and could barely recognize any NW & SW names on the list. We cannot count on our brothers/sisters who are office holders in the system because their primary goal is the defense of their offices. The offices are certainly too juicy to take the risk of criticizing those who appoint them. For the same reasons we cannot count on our so called politicians. It is very embarrassing that today some of our children in English Technical colleges continue to write a certain end of course exam in English but are awarded a certificate called "CAP". A large majority of the students and even teachers do not know what "CAP" stands for.

What has finished the anglophone in this society is rationalizing issues in a purely Machiavellian entity. Granted that the story is a gross exaggeration of what may really have taken place, should we be seen to be the ones shooting ourselves? Of late I heard the majority of the students admitted into the higher teachers training college Bambili are frogs. If true is this normal? Gendarme officers like the police and the district officers are frogs in A purely anglophone region of Cameroon do u rationalists find this normal? Am damned worried because these fellows have invaded our schools and some dare constrain principals and PTA presidents to preside in French . Do u really find this normal. Why should the legal department in a pure Anglo Saxon scenario be top heavy francophone? Could one not surely deduce that submissions shall be in French ? Do not forget that they destroyed our only polytechnic GTC Ombe and today send francophones to teach our children in pidgin English . Do u really find this normal? I can't forget the year all our technical students failed the technical exams with the French acronym CAP due to a mistranslation by a frog teacher. Bougie in ordinary parlance is a candle but in technology it is a spark plug and this is what failed all our children. When they do this they turn around and blame the tried and tested system of Anglo education as responsible for the poor show of our children yet rationalists want to make us believe that all is well in the best of worlds like Voltaire said in one of his books Candide.
We only await for these biya's appointees when they fall out of grace they come to tell us how they fought so hard to change the system from within . Lies! What about becoming a professor just because a university lecturer with no publication to his credit has been appointed a minister and of course they start defending the indefensible . You may want to ask Ngolle Ngolle about his several outings on behalf of the head of state who has made sure that his native Bangem is enclaved. Who is fooling who in all of this?
Continue to delude yourselves until one goddamned morning the owners of la republique France will usher in another stooge and dictator. Read my lips " free and fair elections shall never take place in this triangle.

What prove have you brought to say the journalist's story is a lie? At least he brought us the names of those appointed in the legal department in Bamenda who are all francophones so how are they going to work with the lawyers?--Fonong Fevant FonOn 28 February 2015 at 16:40, Agbor Enow Augustine Enow007@yahoo.com [cameroon_politics] <cameroon_politics@yahoogroups.com> wrote:Truth is the platinum standard by which journalists are judged. When a reporter says that there is a ban on English language in a NW court and there is in fact a ban on English language in the said regional court, then the reporter has told the truth; otherwise, the report is false.The report from the Cameroon Daily Journal regarding the purported ban placed on English in the Bamenda-based court is a lie and self promoting message from that paper and its owner. The advent of electronic journalism has not only improved the speed at which news is reported, but journalism itself suffers as a result of this important channel of communication.Someone can just sit in his house in Buea and decide to create some sensationalism to increase traffic to his online news site. This misinformation and disinformation is a threat to journalism as a profession. This sale of commercialized lies and dramatic sensationalism of falsehood for personal gain should be condemned with the contempt that it deserves.Cameroonians should watch out for this kind of yellow journalism, which is nothing but a sensationalistic and marketable fiction. While it is not bad for a journalist to distinguish himself and uplift the profile of his news channel, to do so at the expense of the truth confuses the reader and breaks all media ethics.Augustine Agbor EnowThe outcome of my life is not more than three lines:
I was a raw material
I became mature and cooked
And I was burned into nothingness.
