COLONIZATION: All Heads of Departments (HODs ) of the University of Buea (UB) and Bamenda (UBa) said NO to harmonization. The Minister of Higher Education

In a late afternoon move on Friday June, 3rd 2016, all Heads of Departments (HODs ) of the University of Buea (UB) and Bamenda (UBa) said NO to harmonization. The Minister of Higher Education, Prof Jacques Fame Ndongo looked visibly shocked that lecturers from these two universities stood their grounds in Yaoundé and spoke with one voice. They told the Minister who had used the LMD as an excuse to call for harmonization that the Anglophone system remains the best and if there is a need for any harmonization, then the Francophone universities in the country must go the Anglophone way.

God is still saying something.

The Cameroun government has been planning for years to harmonize academic programmes in the Cameroons state universities. Such a move received fierce…

Fred Awomah Achondoh Well if harmonization means making university curriculum similar to international standards then its a good move. International standards all move towards the English system why is our case different. But I think the government just want to further frustrate the young generation. Nigerian universities are not full yet. We can still go the Nigerian direction. Yes or oui?

Petrus Tonus Ngongus Hail to the UB and UBa heads of departments for their unanimity! I pray they persist with that welcome move, shunning away all sell-outs whom might mar the process by secretly allying with the minister of Higher Education as usual for their egoistic motives.

Tabe Lovlyn Tabe
Tabe Lovlyn Tabe Harmony begins with one language. As long as we have two languages, let us us have our separate systems. Anglophones MUST say NO to marginalisation. Anglophones keep suffering because many cannot speak french upon graduation. We are obliged to speak french meanwhile they francophones are not obliged to speak English. This is just the beginning.

Bunji Antoinette I like that. This was almost done to the Engineering faculty too . Though they did not succeed, they still succeeded to send all anglophone lecturers to the ministry as researchers and punished the students with francophone lecturers who cannot speak english. I still dont know why the Nalova is not doing anything about it

They send their kids to the US and England to study in English then want to selfishly take away the last opportunity from poor Cameroonians to study under a good educational system. Thanks Mark, feed us with more information. I am still hungry
Ntemfac Ofege
Ntemfac Ofege This is not harmonization, this is pure concolonisation: the colonisation of a colony by a colony. French Cameroun has NO RIGHT to annex Southern British Cameroons let alone attempting to force feed its corrupt sub culture on us. That is not happening and this is the last straw. This fellow, Fame Ndongo. All he thinks is tribalism.
