Come to think of it.The other case os my very Michael Tomdio, the "Tiko boy" (all their family houses are there). But as soon as he was appointed Minister of water and Energy, the very first thing was to rush to Babouantou to get "les gens du village remercier Paul Biya..." I trowey egen? Once head of Paul Pamela Engo, one time Cameroon's point-man at the UN?
Let those who want to rigmarole do so if it pleases them. That is the plain truth. Mr Poufong could have been to Sacred heart College, was elected college, food, sanitory prefect of that school et al. When the chips will be down, you will find him singing another song. Just when the next series of Biya decrees include Gus Poufong and you will see the true colours of the man.Agien Nyangkwe

Essentially, I think, the Government has to be faulted for a lot of things -- lack of vision and implementation of its plans, if any. It does seem that the 'plans' of this government are reactions to happenings. That's when it comes in and puts in half-measures to solve the problems that arise. By the thesis that to fail to plan is to plan to fail, we can see where this all leads to.There is a pathetic, preamble to all the embezzlement and corruption we have going on, and that is the absence of a patriotic sentiments. This is something that can be clearly planned and executed. But we wait for those who have never been schooled in patriotism to fall into the traps of its lack and then go after them -- reacting to the crime rather than taking preemptive measures. Surely, the criminals should not be spared punishment, but the putative father, the state, ought to give its children a proper orientation, a proper upbringing.From the look of things, if CONAC and the justice department did its homework, we would have to multiply the cells of Kondengui a thousand fold to accommodate inmates. For there are many more potential prisoners out on the streets than those in cells.The anglophone plight, like many hot national issues, has been handled in a haphazard and reactive rather than a proactive manner. It could be planned and resolved. In fact, the corruption/embezzlement scamp is only an echo of the unfortunate lack of foresight in the handling of national issues no different from the Anglophone fracas. If the government bothered to work on these issues, they would not reach such horrible states.N.

--Gaston,I can't believe you hold views that are rooted on twisted logic. By your thinking, the thieves sitting in Kondengui prison had a right to steal state funds because the government of Cameroon "lacks the ethos to plan and use its resources for development". That is completely inaccurate because the last time I checked, the country had a budget which itemized and prioritized development efforts and projects.Let's assume for one moment that you are right about the lack of ethos for development, will it be morally right for anybody to enrich himself at the expense of 20 million Cameroonians? It is outrageous that you are even calling on Cameroonians and the international community to be complicit to the crimes of these criminals by agitating and demonstrating on their behalf. What did you drink today?Tabong Kima

Subject: [camnetwork] Re: WHO IS AN ANGLOPHONE //////// Mendo Ze's room
There was a certain politician who was elected to represent Tiko constituency: I think his name was Oma Betow. When it came to critical issues that concerned "Southern Cameroon" in which parliamentarians of "Anglophone extraction" had to chime in and give credibility to the issues raised; the Tiko parliamentarian, Mr. Charles Oma Betow rose up on the 2nd of September 1996 and said approximately the following: "Yes, I am a UPC parliamentarian and was elected by the people of the South West Province to represent them BUT my loyalties are with my "Sanaga Maritime" ancestors. Our region is enclaved and deserves the attention of this corrupt government. Go to Edea, Eseka, Pouma, Boumyebel, Ngog Mapubi, Dibangue, Nsongloulou, Nsongbajek, Bakoko-Bijek and see how "my people are suffering under the New Deal CPDM administration.As you may have guessed, Journalists present at the occasion pounded on him immediately to explain this conundrum and instead of doubling down, the Tiko based UPC parliamentarian lambasted: "Je suis d'abord un Sanaga (meaning Bassa) avant d'etre Anglophone du Sud Ouest. Je n,ai donc pas de compte a rendre ni a la presse ni a qui que ce soit". No more no less. And that is how poor Anglophones were once again fleeced by one of theirs for "Belle Politics". There are many (Bafang, Bangangte, Baham, Bafia, Mbouda, Nkongbou, Monatele, Obala, Donenkeng, Bokito, Dchang, Foumban) ANGLOPHONES who were born and bred in SW and NW Provinces; went to Sasse, Bishop Rogans, Miliko, GTTC, CPC Bali, Sacred Heart, St. Ngong, Frank Harcourt, Saker, Okoyong, Our Lady, Seat of Wisdom, Bojungo etc). Some even went to "England", Germany, America, Furabay, Ibadan, Lagos, Ahmadou Bello, LUTH, Ghana for further studies in ENGLISH SVP. Now, when some were appointed to positions of responsibility or as Government Ministers or big time parastatal Directors...aboriginal ANGLOPHONES were shocked to discover that automatically their erstwile "brothers and school mates" choose instead to identify with the village of their parental or grand parental birth. That is the schoolmate you knew simply as your classmate suddenly became a "Bamileke Man, an Ewondo man, a Bafia woman or an Eton/Manguissa man". You are not only shocked, but your disappointment eventually turns to resentment and justifiably so. That is the kind of politicks that out "Elders" have bequeath on this unfortunate generation...and that is essentially what Mr. Pufong was trying to prove here. i.e He is first and foremost of Bamileke origin.

I don't see myself as Anglophone or Francophone but as a Cameroonian. However, I hail myself as a proud progeny of the most beautiful village that straddles the so called Anglophone- Francophone divide.

Subject:RE: [cameroon_politics] Fw: [MINCAM] Mendo Ze's roomHow low, the high and mighty can fall. The fundamental question is why are all these people (men) being held? Even if they did not steal the monies, no good use would have been made of these funds. Cameroon basically lack the ethos to plan and use its resources for development.
The so-called stolen funds even in state coffers would not have made us any better. It is ridiculous that all these people are being held to the contemptible silence of Cameroonians and the international community.
