Mr Kima,
Thanks for your input, these are some of the minor things we the Manyu people should be aware of. It's sad that, within South West politics, the various big forces cannot come together for the common good of the Region. Assuming that copying the Manyu institutions will arguably not make any impact on the purpose of the letter to the presidency, but he Prince Ekosso found it necessary to copy the likes of Lamidos in Far North et al., whom I believe, will have very little or not interests in arguing or supporting his case in anyway. Is it because he wants to spite the Manyu folks with whom they have big differences but inevitably share a common regional interests? What a pity.
Lets keep talking.

--Mr. ArreymbiThe reason no Manyu group was sent a copy of the protest letter is because historically, there has been no trust between the Manyu people and the Bakweri people. Destructive rivalry for dominance and leadership of the region the late Walter Wilson Mesumbe called VAKUMA has impeded every effort at cooperation between the two. Absent this rivalry, ours would have been the most formidable region politically and economically speaking. Historical and unnecessary rivalry between Mamfe and Victoria is the bane that has rendered VAKUMA politically impotent despite the fact that it contributes the greatest amount of human and natural resources to the nation. It would require a concerted and honest effort by the leaders and people of both people to establish trust and cooperation otherwise the next thing that will be moved from there will be the sea which may be taken to Maroua.On a more serious note, given the present mistrust and animosity, do you seriously think Manyu people care if Prince Ekosso sent a copy of his protest letter to a Manyu group? How does not sending the letter to Manyu Chiefs or Manyu Lawyers hurt or diminish Manyu on the national stage? Or on the other hand, how does sending it enhance the standing and prestige of the groups that were copied. Personally, I think we Manyu people must learn to sort the nut from the chaff and to distinguish between substance and symbolism.Tabong KimaBoston
Sent from my iPhoneDear Manyu people,
I have read with consternation the protest letter written by Prince Ekosso to the Presidency about the transfer of CDC head office from Limbe to Yaounde.
I am not here to discuss the content of the letter, however, my interest is the people of bodies he copied the letter to. It is interesting to see that no mentioned or copy of the letter has been sent to any persons or bodies in 'Manyu'. Is it that Manyu has not got a conference of Manyu Chiefs? Or Manyu Lawyers to be engaged in such an important national matter? As one of the strongest groups in every aspect of Cameroon society and South West Region in particular; be it Law or cultural, I believe Manyu intelligentsia and her people should be notified or consulted in aspects of Nation building such as this.
Therefore, I'll urge Prince Ekosso to also make available a copy of his protest letter to the various Manyu interests groups (i.e. Manyu Chiefs Conference and Manyu Lawyers Association etc).
A concerned Manyu citizen.
