I say eh!!! What is really wrong with this Howard Njeck fellow? For crying out loud; this is year 2016. The guy is still reading and copiously consuming French Revolution and Napoleon Bonaparte history, juxtaposing same with the Cameroon context of their utopian calculus.
Remember he is (or na was sef) the Executive Director of the Political Internet mirage and lunacy hatched on Camnet called CAMDIAC that promised to "Shake the Political World" in Cameroon with a revolutionary...Wuna Kam See Amerika Wonder take over" of Government. As predicted by many; their amateurism paid off big time via their self-inflicted, selfish agenda driven, clueless, spineless, Big-Mop 4 Natty spectacular failure.
What I can praise them for (at least) is their ability to Gang-Up and CUSH innocent Cameroonians who dared to X-Ray their fanatical ill-conceived modus operandi. Dat peepoo na popoh villageois dem all.
Here are a couple of African heroes you may want to read about and understand instead of Napoleon Bonaparte:
Nkrumah and Rawlings of Ghana, Sankara of Burkina, Mandela of S.A, Awolowo & Nnamdi Azikiwe of Nigeria, Sadat of Egypt, Sekou Toure of Guinea and of course your one and only (yours truly) Mishe Fon of Kamalloon. Some man na ngrung beep? YES, my name appears in S.N Tita's confused History of Southern Cameroon books.

Subject: [camnetwork] Napoleon belief that there is no sympathy for tyrant
The young Napoleon about to enter the political landscape of the kingdom of France,
It was a match of a young visionary, matching toward a new paradigm of disordering the Directory in France.
On the eve of a revolution Napoleon writes "Man is born for happiness but where kings are sovereign there are no men;
only the oppressing slaves more base than the slave that is oppressed. Therefore everyone must resist oppression,
the French had done so. They have won liberty after twenty months of struggle and the most violent stock"
He continued "after centuries of French brutalized by king and their ministries, by nobles and their prejudice,
by priest and their impostures. France had suddenly awaken and marked out the right of man".
The essay was a revelation of revolutionary sentiments.Napoleon extols liberty and equality, when he writes
"Without strength and energy there is neither virtue nor happiness".
Napoleon belief that there is no sympathy for tyrant, but no pity either for those who accept tyranny, that all the
tyrants will doubtlessly go to hell and their slaves will too after the crime of oppressing a Nation.
These were the words of a young man who will be the admiration and envy of his generation.
He so strongly belief that men of genius were metros destine to burn to illuminate their age.
His childhood dream was to liberate the people of Corsica his birth place, but the struggle to dethrone the monarchy
in France awaken him to understand that the whole people of France were also living under oppression.
Napoleon was not only an instigator of events but also a proponent of events, he read Machiavellian, Rousseau etc
,he strongly belief that "action was a form of climbing the lather of destiny".
As France was tearing apart he writes "Truth has little appeal in a corrupt court", but now the scene has change so one's
conduct must change as well. If we lose this opportunity we are slaves for ever.
Napoleon is now like a muzzle of cannon that is filled with powder, the charge in the books he reads, the notes he takes,
the stories he writes, the reflections on the actions of the monarchy composes in a fever.
He himself dose not know when the fuse will be lit, but he kept filling his head with knowledge and virtues ideas in a prodigious
effort to concentrate both his energy and strength.
He was always inspired by "Cuibort General" Essay on tactics which reads "A man will arise perhaps from obscurity and the crowd,
a man who will not have a name for himself. Either by his speeches or his writings, a man who will have meditated in silence, this
man will seize possession of opinion, circumstance and fortune"
It was as if this essay was written directly to him, a young man who will be transported by his imagination to seize control of not only
a nation but an empire.To demonstrate the strength of his character Napoleon writes "Duty force me to praise men whom virtue bids
me hate" as he was serving the king of France as an artillery Lieutenant soldier, the same king who had champion the occupation of
his homeland of Corsica.
Napoleon writings were nothing but the direct invention of his mind, at some point he was tempted to question his believes base on
public Opinion, but he will quickly comes to term with him self " hasn't he been misunderstood and mocked like Jean Jacques Rousseau",
realizing that the current of public opinion is always corrupt.
With the understanding that he will always accept the sufferings that destiny had impose on him but sorrow was a personal matter.
On the father's death bed he cried out "kings would tremble before Napoleon's sword, that his son would change the face of the world" Napoleon did just that.
None of this young soldier's actions were aimed at winning public admiration or approval,
The young Napoleon grows up to endure the pain of defeat suffered by his people; the people of Corsica his home land.
As the young man emerges from his dream and set about organizing his future, the most admirable thing about Napoleon was his conviction,
and his belief was that classic education was not going to be the terminal of inventing him self but a reading adventure.
I am appealing to Cameroonians who are contributing in their small way to the struggle for political transition in Cameroon to recite this Napoleon Eulogy I wrote two year ago.
