Prof. Ngwasiri : Point Of Correction

My attention has just been drawn to a piece you published in The Post entitled "Ngwasiri Answers Professor Nkwi" (The Post No.0755 April 5, 2006). In that piece you assert that I wrote an article entitled "Varsity Don Rescues Fru Ndi from Insults."

Donald J Pliner Sport-i-que - Norah (Danube) - Women's Zappos.com is proud to offer the Donald J Pliner Sport-i-que - Norah (Danube) - Women's: Showcase your style with this fun slide. Suede upper with stud and stone ornamentation. Chic jute wrapped heel. Rubber sole for traction.

I did not write that article nor did I order it to be written. Kini Nsom, a journalist wrote the article and Ngwasiri, true to his personality, was more obsessed with my name than with the author of the article.

No wonder he cannot remember that he resigned as Chairman of the National Advisory Council, NAC. The day he resigned as chair was the day he turned his back to the institution he helped create. Little did he know that he would need it one day? It is rather too late, sir.

I want to be educated on the constitution of the SDF and how the members of NAC are selected? As a party organ, are its members randomly selected or there is another process, which confers its member's powers over an elected organ, National Executive Council, NEC? Answers to these questions should permit Ngwasiri and his group to know that NAC remains an advisory body.

Has the position from which he resigned suddenly become so important because of his inordinate thirst for power? If so, he should go about it in a constitutional manner. Indeed, evidence exists to prove that my learned colleague resigned from NAC and he should cease to mislead the militants of our great party.

As a learned law professor, he knows that proposed amendments do not become law until they are actually amended. Indeed, within the party, there is ongoing debate with respect to amendments of certain provisions of the constitution.

As far as I know, the position of chair of the social and cultural policy commission is still elective. Until those amendments are endorsed by the convention, I still stand for democratic process as defined by the statutes of the party.

In the last ordinary convention I was elected Chair of the Social and Cultural Affairs Committee. I have served honourably. A draft report of its work is available. I will be running for the same position. It is within this context that I took part in the primaries at the District, Divisional and Provincial levels, which culminated in the successful Provincial Conference at Fundong in the spirit of the current constitution of the party.

Franco Sarto - Headline (Blue Multi Capri Print) - Women's Zappos.com is proud to offer the Franco Sarto - Headline (Blue Multi Capri Print) - Women's: Gorgeous thong sandal. Beautiful multi color ornament. Adorable lucite kitten heel. Floral outsole decor. Multi pattern will surely turn heads.

I thank Ngwasiri for inviting me to join his group. I am declining that invitation. The fact that I was in Fundong for the Provincial Conference should convince him and his group that I stand for constitutionality.

Lots of things Ngwasiri stands for today, really amaze me. He accused Fru Ndu of tribalism, nepotism and many other things. Why has it taken him 16 years to realise that strategic ethnicity is a vital political tool?

My learned colleague served as chair of NAC, and before he resigned, did he ever draw NEC's attention to the change of the status quo or advise the Chairman of SDF, Ni John Fru Ndi to detribalize NAC and other party organs? Why only now?

It is now time for all of us to rebuild our great party. Let us not shatter the dreams of our people and jeopardize or delay the social deconstruction of Cameroon as we look beyond 2020.

My learned colleague and his group will be contributing to the rebuilding of our party if they join SDF militants on May 26 in Bamenda for a constructive engagement and debate for at total birth of the party.

Welcome back friends,

So what steps for the future? That's what we want to see now on this forum, if we mean well for those we are staking our necks for. Or are we still going to contend with seeing our idols just walk away with a piece of the treasure that the SDF is?

I thought some of us were going to use the self-declared break to bury our idols and resurrect the SDF. And mind you, it's the whole, not a piece, of the SDF that's a treasure.

Anyone wanting a piece, anyone dying just to see their idol walk away with a piece of that treasure dripping with the blood of the martyrs and other ruined lives both at home and abroad, means ill for the SDF.

Remember the wisdom of King Solomon when two women were contesting a child? Solomon teased them with the proposal to have the child shared so each of them could have a piece of the child. The destructive, false mother said, Yes let's divide the child. That meant the child would be butchered and left dead!

The genuine mother (oh good woman, compassionate woman, wise woman) prefered to let the child go even to the wicked woman, just so he stays alive, at least for a start.

This dilemma faces us with the SDF. Everyone here thinks someone is wrong. But as Samleyin would say those idols, like us shall pass away but the SDF will remain.

So how do we solve this problem, above any consideration for persons or even with consideration for persons? Let's just think up tenable remedial measures. And this is time we'll tell the wicked from the good.

Over to you, friends.

Model journalists and experts/students in political science and economics that some of us brag we are on this forum, should especially make good political proposals, shouldn't we? You bet, we'll rather see more Fru Ndi/Ngwasiri talk here soon. We hope not.

Fru Ndi should not allow two SDF Conventions to hold. He has what it takes to make only one Convention hold and this in the supreme interest of the party, self-interest, personal ego aside. This is my idea:

Frustrate plans by those organising the Yaounde Convention to take over leadership of the party on a red carpet. This is how that can be done:

Storm the Yaounde Convention. Perhaps or perhaps not in the same way of the bloody storming of the Soulemane Convention in Yaounde in the late 1990s.

Well, it looks rather tricky. How can the Chairman lead an army of faithful militants to storm Ngwasiri's Yaounde Convention when they should be holding theirs in Bamenda same day? This is how (two possibilities):

1.) Postpone the Bamenda Convention by even a few days and mobilise militants to Yaounde to do everything, including EVERYTHING, to stop the Yaounde Convention, then go over to the Bamenda Convention, victory songs on their lips, and hold the bona fide Convention there.

There, if the Ngwasiri group fail to show up, they'll have themselves to blame. There, the world would have seen who really has the power.

2.) Forget about the Bamenda Convention and mobilise SDF militants to attend the Yaounde Convention. Use his popularity to defeat Ngwasiri and Muna on their "home turf".

Fru Ndi has what it takes to make this happen. He has the grassroots following in spite of the raging crisis and revelations about his misdeeds.

This would be a most noble way of proving Ngwasiri and Muna wrong. And it would leave no scars and there won't be conflict, no violence, no blood, no exclusion.

Another day is ticking out, bringing doomsday closer to the SDF. 11th May: DD-11 to Yaounde court verdict, -15 to the Convention(s). Two Conventions stare the SDF in the face. Even one-and-a-half Conventions would spell doom for the SDF, I repeat. And 16 expensive years would just have gone up in flames!

I've called for contributions to the way forward here and not one word has been said in that direction. Only the insults continue. Only more praises for Fru Ndi.

Here, I have set the ball rolling. Contradict me but please contribute something for the general good.

For some people on this forum the SDF and Cameroon can go to hell as long as Fru Ndi maintains the title of Chairman. Isn't that sad?

Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD). PhD!! This one must be a genuine intellectual, eh. He speaks the right language. Clap for him!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of the most absentee committee chairmen in the SDF. "Elections" are around and he's jumped out, dusted his propaganda books. It took long weeks or is it even months?) since The Post published his quarrel with Ngwasiri.

Ngwasiri might also want to ask him, "Why answer only now?" The answer is simple: Prof is on campaign. He is appealing to the sentiments (not reasoning) of those people you know. "Pawa to de pipo!"

Time will surely expose ALL those who have conspired in their congragation of mafia to use the common man. I think we should carry out research on this Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD).

I do not want to question where this Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD)got his PhD from or to doubt how he got it. However, when I see some of these "intellectuals" making a mockery of the very law they claim to know and teach, I begin to be contented with the little education I have. These are people who think that they can tell us that White is Black and we blindly accept simply because of the titles they carry or the degrees they write after their names.

It is the right of Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD)to lauch his campaign the primitive way he is doing here, but what disturbs me is the fact that he is doing it as an illiterate. He keeps on twisting the issue as to whether or not Professor Ngwasiri is the President of NAC or worst still, as to better NAC has authority over NEC. But what this "intellectual" intentionally avoided was the verdict of the Yaounde Judge. Can Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) tell us if it is true that in case of crisis within the SDF, NAC is mandated to ensure the smooth running of the SDF? Can our professor of Law tell us if the mandate of SDF has since expired? And if the mandate has expired, to which organ of the SDF does the constitution of the SDF give authority over the day-to-day business of the SDF? Can our Professor of Law tell this forum if the election of Ni John Fru Ndi as Chairman of NAC goes in line with the constitution of the SDF, which clearly spells out the need of "check and Balances" within the party?What does he say about the verdict of the Yaounde case, and on the fact that Ni John Fru Ndi and his group has publicly declared that they wouldn't honour any such ruling from a legally constituted authority?

It is shameful to see Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) behaving as if there is a well defined time for things to take place. Some of his illiterate questions actually make me laugh. He is asking Professor Ngwasiri why he has to take long to raise up his points. This is pure arrogance!

Just smeel a section of the shit he has posted:

"Lots of things Ngwasiri stands for today, really amaze me. He accused Fru Ndu of tribalism, nepotism and many other things. Why has it taken him 16 years to realise that strategic ethnicity is a vital political tool?"

Why did he not reply one minute after professor Ngwasiri wrote what he is telling us? Why did Ni John Fru Ndi wait until May 26. 1990 to lauch the SDF? Why did Ni John Fru Ndi waited only after he was defeated in CPDM parliamentary elections before deciding to create the SDF? Why did Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) wait only for the SDF to be created before nursing the idea to be involved in active politics? Why has NEC waited for years before finally calling a convention? And if the postponement of previous conventions was due to lack of funds, "WHY ONLY NOW" are the funds there?

Fully aware that everything has its time and unknowingly contradicting himself, Professor commits the following blunder:

"It is now time for all of us to rebuild our great party. Let us not shatter the dreams of our people and jeopardize or delay the social deconstruction of Cameroon as we look beyond 2020."

He clearly uses "It is now time for all of us to rebuild our great party." But why only now professor Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD)?

I have seen a great deal of falsehood and hypocrisy in most of these our political intellectuals. They just mix truth and lies to deceive the common man. Of course we do not expect anything good and truthful from Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) because he is actually feeding from the table of Ni John Fru Ndi. As a member of the Ni John Fru Ndi's faction of the SDF, no one expects him to write against the person he is serving; he can not bite the finger that feeds him. How can he dare raise his voice against Ni John Fru Ndi when he is fully aware of the effects of Article 8.2 and of the fact that Ni John Fru Ndi can use it just any how? How can Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) be criticizing Ni John Fru and NEC when he knows that their NEC meetings take place inside the private house of Ni John Fru Ndi?

And if this Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) is indeed a professor and law expert he seems to be, he wouldn't have written the childish way he has just done. Even a primary school pupil will be quick to point out that he has just presented a campaign speech. If his trouble is with what Professor Ngwasiri has long said, then what has this got to do with his achievements as Chair of the Social and Cultural Affairs Committee of the SDF ? Even if Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) thought that he was preparing cheap gari for us in his write up, I would like to tell him that he also poured sand into the same gari. The following statement of his clearly shows that he is writing out of purely selfish interests; he is not writing for the good of the SDF:

"In the last ordinary convention I was elected Chair of the Social and Cultural Affairs Committee. I have served honourably. A draft report of its work is available. I will be running for the same position. It is within this context that I took part in the primaries at the District, Divisional and Provincial levels, which culminated in the successful Provincial Conference at Fundong in the spirit of the current constitution of the party."

Yes, he may has his right to make his campaign speech, but in doing so he should not take Cameroonians for fools. Besides, there is NO one fighting the Post he has been holding illegally for years. Even if there is someone wanting to take his "chair", he should be contented with the fact that elections or no elections, Ni John Fru Ndi will be the one to appoint them to the various chairs. Why is this man trembling? With Professor Ngwasiri, Professor Asonganyi, and many intellectuals opposed to Ni John Fru Ndi already far far away from the Bamenda convention, who is this weak Professor afraid of? Has he accidentally done something against Ni John Fru Ndi and is now trying to clean the relationship?

Some times when I see University professors going so low and cheap and actually reasoning like sheep, I regret having exposed the fast declining faculty of reasoning of some blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi in this forum. If University professors who are living peacefully here in Cameroon and are enjoying huge financial benefits can actually reason like sheep, then what do we expect from some of our brothers like Rexon Washow alias Tayong, Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Knganjo, Renee Murena, Watesih, Akoson, who are fighting with stress in the very stressful society they find themselves? If Ni John Fru Ndi can succeed in making University Professors behave like sheep, then we can imagine the harm he has done to some of his blind supporters using this forum: Rexon Washow alias Tayong, Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Renee Murena, Watesih, Knganjo, Akoson, Aaron Nyangkwe, etc.

I hope magic should happen to bring about the defeat of this fake professor at the Bamenda SDF convention so that we see his true color; so that he tells us the truth about the mafia within the Ni John Fru Ndi SDF faction. He is just playing the same game Ni John Fru Ndi did before taking the SDF hostage.

When President Ahidjo gave the presidency to his house boy, Paul Biya, and wanted to keep the chairmanship of the CNU, an open war errupted between President Ahidjo and Biya. People like Ni John Fru Ndi who saw Ahidjo's exit as a pretext to eat and fill their stomachs stood solidly behind president Paul Biya. After eating at the local Bamenda CNU and CPDM level, Ni John Fru Ndi thought he could easily climb on others to go and eat the people's cake in the National Assembly. Ni John Fru Ndi tried to run into the Biya's temble of thieves (The National Assembly) but was defeated. Out of disgrace and frustration, he left the CPDM he has been defending for long to create the SDF. With the SDF he was nailing President Paul Biya on the cross until when Biya started giving him remains.

I do not oppose any one's right to seek greater heights in politics, but I expect intellectuals like Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) to do it in a reasonable and intellectual way. By so doing they can at least convince us of the importance of sending our children to school.

Because of selfish politics, quack politicians like Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) have cheapened everything, including mere honesty. These are the thiefs moving about in our streets while the innocent and the helpless are in prison. I hope the Good Lord open their eyes and take them out of the Bondage that Ni John Fru Ndi has enslaved them. The fact that Professor Ngwasiri finally saw the light and decided to stand for justice and for the common good, is something to be appreciated.

God save us all from vampires!

It looks u always want attention by making fabulous statements .How may time shall I make it clear to you that Tayong, Washov and Rexon are three different people?
More to that you havent answered my last question to you. Many diehard anglophones fighting for the our God given heritage we recently arrested in Bamenda.many anglophones in this forum used the emails i pasted here to write to international bodies about their arrest.

when u come online , all u can do is to write lyrics on Fru Ni Ngwasiri palaver.
Lastly u calimed anglophone fighters have a selfish interests, where do u stand gentleman. i begin to think u have an axe to grind everywhere u go.

[knganjo]

Mukete,
I have on several instances pointed out on this forum that you publish just anything that comes into your mind.Who told you Prof.Nkwi is a Professor of law? Please, before reacting and commenting on personalities can you make it a point of duty to verify your facts before posting them? When the Yaounde court of first instance passed it verdict on the NEC/NAC saga you took lawyer Boniface Ndam for Mbah Ndam.Mad people do reason and reflect at times.What's the matter with you? I have told you on different instances that I am always available to challenge you when it comes to factual information.For your information Prof. Paul Nkwi is one if not the most renounced professor of anthropology in Cameroon.The trash you had on the post publish by the dessident leader of the sdf in the form of an interview can never be from a seasoned interlectual like prof Nkwi.He is a knowlegeable individual who usually speak sense.

[BenB]

Except in this write-up, knganjo? Usually. What happened to him this time? Bad politics?

[BenB]

Rexon, Washow, Watesiy, etc,

See what your friend Tayong wrote on April 4 frowning at Prof. Nkwi when Prof. first opened this can of worms in The Post that is now haunting him:

Read Tayong right below here:

If we claim to be X from Wonderful school of England, Dr AA from Havard University of Uncle Sam's Country, Peter from school of Nuclear weapon technology Institute and you name the rest then

We wont speak all the rubbish above in the name of party politics.

Most of us live in the west where a senator openly votes against his own party should he see anything wrong with the bill...

[mukete]

Knganjo,

Is it not interesting that the only wrong things you can pick out from my write ups is the fact that I get mix up with names? Even without going into the details as to why I address him as professor of law, I would like to tell you that by making reference to "legality", I saw him speaking with the mind of a legal expert.

Is he not a PhD holder? Does that imply that he is an expert in philosophy? I think readers would have expected you to address the issues I raised and the questions I asked, rather than pointing out irrelevant things. Whether he is a law expert or not, does that affect any of the points raised or questions asked? Does he need to be a law expert in oreder to answer the questions. And you think when I go out to fetch imformation for readers, I give consideration to titles and what people studied?

Is it not interesting that you are now only pointing out my usage of wrong names? How about my poor English and wrong English? How about my illiteracy or half-schooling? I think you must have realized that even with my low level of education, I can write better than the trash you have been writing here. And mark you, I do not read and re-read my contributions before posting as you people do. For me, and readers must have realized this, it is the FACTS that matter.

I should, however, crave your indulgence for having mustered the courage to react to my posting, and I hope you continue. When you and your other prophets of trumpet-blowers started the war against me, you stated that you will make me surrender. The way events are unfolding is clearly suppoting my position that you people have something to hide. PLease call the other members of your congregation of trumpet-blowers to come and crucify me.

I hope you stand the test of time. Do readers a good by addressing issues and facts raised. And before I end, I am merely replying to what you have written simply because I have nothing important to write now. If I had, I wouldn't have been wasting the precious time of readers addressing irrelevant issues. This is the tactic you people had been using to divert me from bringing the truth to this forum. Before, you people would insult me so that we continue in the same game.

Just read what you write:

"For your information Prof. Paul Nkwi is one if not the most renounced professor of anthropology in Cameroon."

You are comparing him to which other professor? Professor Ngwasiri? Professor Asonganyi? Ben Muna? Can you give us the works that make him what you proclaim? Do you want me to prove the contrary? What has this got to do with the mess they are instituting in the SDF? And if he is what you want us to swallow, why should he be pretending, in public, not to see the urgly sides of Ni John Fru Ndi?

I invite you to wait for another "FICTION" before this week runs out.

Mukete

[momo]

keep on the great mukete
we are with you.
dont mind the foolish praisingers of jfd.the end will tell

[Bugiba]

Mukete,
Did you say Fru Ndi created the SDF? Let me quote you here: “Ni John Fru Ndi tried to run into the Biya’s temple of thieves (The National Assembly) but was defeated. Out of disgrace and frustration, he left the CPDM he has been defending for long to create the SDF” Can you revisit the Ngwasiri’s interview that was posted here on the Post Online a couple of days ago? I remember he (Ngwasiri) was categorical that Fru Ndi never created the SDF. Stop reacting as a mad dog. I begin to see that for real, you are out of your mind.
You might not have seen Nkwi as a professor but it is ridiculous if you think you have a list of model professors made up of Ngwasiri, Ben Muna, Asonganyi and you name the rest. And too you confirm that it took them 16 years to see the light? You should be honest to see with me that they can never be leaders. For if they took over the SDF leadership today , they will need 16 more years to come out with the way forward for the party and the country.

Professor Paul Nkwi could take 16 years to respond to an article published in the press. Mukete could take 16 years to make a comment about Chief Mukete and the death of a lawyer in Kumba. It could take Vally 16 years to learn from the society in which he lives (England) so as to contribute resourcefully to the political debate in Cameroonian. It could take who ever, how much time to do what. But The bottom line is, who cares about any sell-outs whose integrity is doubtful? Cameroonians are concerned when it comes to the leadership of the great SDF. And those names that are being mentioned are not only a disgrace to the values the SDF was built around but also a great challenge to the anglophone culture.

Again Mukete, if Fru Ndi created the SDF and has become such a devil, can the good guys create an alternative party? When Fru Ndi left the CPDM as you rightly said, he did create a party and many Cameroonians followed and joined him. That is why he is a great guy. We need this same spirit today in Cameroon if another person thinks he has something better to offer. So far no body except no body but Ni John Fru Ndi has done it.

Now, forget about professors and think about the SDF leadership. Even Prof. Nkwi knows that to be a professor is one thing and to be a leader is another. Unfortunately the Ngwasiris, the Munas etc are still to understand this simple lesson since they need the routine 16 or more years to sought out things.

Finally I guess you were promised some nomination by the CPDM or may be some ‘gumbo’ to help in the disintegration of the SDF. Can you tell us how much you, Chief Mukete or who ever receives for each ‘crab’ you pest here? You are ridiculous and a disgrace to the Anglophone community.

[Akoson]

.

.I think Professor Paul Nchoji Nkwi (PhD) wrote.

...Everyone says he wrote. But Mukete says what did he write??? Why???

Hello Everybody,

I'm happy there hasn't been much insults although Mukete did mildly. I bothered to read his two postings cos they're relatively shorter.

Mr. BenB, I like and admire your write ups. The contents're usually mature. However, I've realised that you've a conclusion already in your mind though you do everything possible to make it latent. Your first proposal about storming and disrupting the Yaounde convention is NOT the best. It may result to quarrels and possibly chaos. Let's not even think about that. Secondarily, your second proposed tactic is good from first thought. But when you think and think hard, you'll realise that the consequences're suicidal. Before I continue let me just state that I'd thought this too. I'm very sure many others have, even Fru Ndi. Now, Ngwasiri, being what he is, can cause more confusion when the "Bamenda" guys decide to attend the convention of the "Yaounde" guys. Place yourself in Fru Ndi's shoes and answer this question; if you move over to Yaounde to attend the convention and the organisers in Yaounde excludes your name from the list of contesters, what'll do??? The whole world will know that you attended that convention that produced another SDF chieftain. They'll not bother to look beyond and see what happened. Everyone has got their ambitions. I think Fru Ndi's is to change Cameroon. I still see so much exuberance of good faith in that man. So, such a mistake you're proposing could be the silliest ever recorded in world History. I wouldn't wish that my worse enemy even nurture such a thought, let alone doing it.

I smiled about the way you blend the ideas of the SDF standoff and the famous story of Wise King Solomon. It's wonderful indeed. Now, Fru Ndi doesn't want this child to be divided. It's very clear. Rather it's Ngwasiri who went ahead and scheduled a date that the "illegal" NEC had already scheduled. And remember that he, Ngwasiri participated in scheduling this date. Who then is guilty of dividing the child? It's clear that Ngwasiri doesn't know the pain and labour it takes to give birth to a child. He's the first to say let's divide the child. Is that what his
"Rev." Joshua of Nigeria taught him???I'm ashamed that even prof Asonganyi's indirectly campaigning that the child be divided by advising SDF militants to rally behind his so-called "origina" SDF, mindful of the fact that when some rally behind the "original" SDF, others'll prefer the "modern" SDF. Again, who or who are those who want to split the child? The answer's hovering in the wind. Even the stones know!!!

And now my own suggestion. The biggest and most needed word's RECONCILIATION. But how??? It's the simplest thing ever but hardest thing to do. Let the man of the people, I mean the Conscience Of Cameroon, Ni John Fru Ndi call Ngwasiri for dialogue. Doing this is not stepping low but being matured. If he, Ngwasiri denies then we can start thinking of other procedures.

Lastly, Mukete the Fiction writer. What did you expect Knangjo to do? I can only describe your contribution as choice of words. You only choosed words and "educated" prof on what he should do. You failed to understand that prof was ONLY making a reply to Ngwasiri's letter. You selected sections of the article to react to. Knagjo too selected portions of your write up to react to. This is not what I want to pull your ears about. In order to resolve a problem, we don't need to sing songs on who is wrong or right. There's a problem - the constitution - everyone's interpreting it their own way. After all reflections, let's say Ngwasiri is right. Now, is he still president of NAC? Yes or no. That same constitution he claims to have to his finger tips requires him to nullify his rejected resignation letter to all the organs that are. Did he do it? The "Bamenda" and "Yaounde" guys are ALL wrong from the look of things. Then what??? What do we do??? What do they do??? From the fine sermon BenB gave us, we learnt not to divide a child cos they'll die. Do we wanna kill the SDF? No! A part that can, through special intervention of GOD ALMIGHTY MIGHT produce an "anglophone" president who must be willing to listen to the plea of the SCNC and possibly instigate a grant of their independence. Therefore Mukete, could you please translate your FICTION writing expertise, concentrating all your energies into writing proposals on how the million dollar word - RECONCILIATION, could be achieved withing days ahead of a convention that will determine the dead of democracy in your country.

Who says what??

Twisted-thinking forehead, Son Of Ako - LSE.

.

[BenB]

Akoson,

You've defended your titles - LSE, Son of Ako and Son of a Tiger. (Am I right, "Son of a Tiger"?) Are you the son of Bate Besong who also styles himself Writer as Tiger, Writer as Obasinjom?

I'm sure I speak the minds of many on this forum if I said you've said it all. We've seen the word RECONCILIATION used here a lot of times but always vaguely. You have made the most concrete prescription, the best definition of how that reconciliation can be achieved: Ni John should take the initiative to invite Ngwasiri for talks IN GOOD FAITH, with guarantees to be agreed upon, no foul play. Perhaps with Cardinal Tumi mediating. You bet someone here disagrees and thinks that's abominable? Ni John? Call Ngwasiri for talks? Who be da Ngwasiri sef?

Why Ni John's initiative? He is the leader, not a deified Fon as someone said somewhere in reference to Ni John that it's abominable in his village for anyone to question the Bigman. Whoever that was, let him be reminded that the SDF is a political party, a SOCIAL DEMOCRATIC FRONT for that matter, not a village fondom where everyone is expected to say "mbeh papa" to the Fon.

Whoever made that statement, if he/she is close to NI John, he/she should be banished from the circles of Ni John. Such are the people who are building a cocoon around the Ni John, giving him false airs of infallibility and labelling critics (advocates of otherwise healthy criticism) as ENEMIES who want to STEAL Ni John's thing, HIS SDF that HE fought so hard to build.

So labelled, demonised, penalised and excluded, some of them have found their voice in dissidence. They have become guerrilla fighters which is no comforting situation for anyone, whoever they may be.

Which is why Akoson's call on Fru Ndi to invite Ngwasiri for reconciliation talks is the most noble thought expressed here so far. Who knows? It could be so relieving to Ngwasiri and his group if only that would spare them the pressures of the coming days (you need to understand the psychological tortures involved in spite of the tough talk), having to run a rival convention under clouds of uncertainty.

Cardinal Tumi tried in vain to reconcile Fru Ndi and Ndam Njoya over the Coalition split in the 2004 presidential election.

Pa Cardinal, no vex say Ni John and he fren Ndam Njoya dem no bi hear ya tok da time. Try again. Call dem, pull dem ear say over don na mboot.

Fools are likely to froget the great promises they made when the cruial moment cames.Prof. Ngwasiri take note.
No Convention in Yaounde.
CAME ONE CAME ALL UP COMING SDF BAMENDA CONVENTION. lONG LIVE FRI NDI, LONG LIFE CAMEROON.

[BenB]

I say eh, na wosai di one comot? Are just getting up from sleep? Or are you from space, Uncle Howard? Long live you too, if na cush.

[Ashwell Molaba]

Interesting to note that the learned professor is talking of the "rebirth" of the party at the Bamenda Convention. All of us should have realised long ago that the SDF is dying and will take us no way. It rode the wave of Anglophone misery. Now it cannot deliver. What I see are the kicks of a dying horse. It was indeed a brave horse but sad to say it is dying. END OF STORY.

Please, would you guys ignore this moron called Mukete? Ignore him please. He writes exceptionally long passages because he cannot make a simple point. They say in English never to use two words when one would do. Not only that, if he could delineate his ideas in point form we would at least give him the benefit of doubt. His blinded "persons politics" displays the immaturity that is Cameroonian politics. Not to say his critics (including myself) are any better. But please don't give this SDF morons a chance to hijack our legitimate cause.

[Tita Mofaw]

wonders shall never end!
I have come to realise this forum habours some bunch of idiots! You think you can question the competence of just anybody.
Do you know Prof Nkwi?

I should remind those of you who are so earger to question where he got his phd that he is one of the best anthropologist we got in Africa right now.
His publications are widely sighted and the mere idea of questioning his academic competence points to our ignorance.

You cannot compare him with the likes of Ngwasiri or Asonganyi who's professorship remains a mystery today because of their failure to contribute anything to the academic world

Tita Mofaw aka Bangwa stupidity, the tribalist has spoken. All bow down and worship. He knows antropologists in Africa. Wonderful! Or is it wonders shall never end? Cliches and cliches and cliches.

[Aaron Nyangkwe]

BenF
I repeat, the SDF is a mass movement.So, some bunch of intellectuals can not pretend to talk on the behalf of these masses, when we know how Cameroonian intellectuals, from all the political divide, have rendered themselves less trustworthy.
So if Professor Ngwasiri thinks that he has supporters, let him go ahead and organize his Yaounde conference.
I hope that when that day will come and nobody shows up, he will call some "Journalists" and say that "Fru Ndi Teargazed His supporters Away From The Convention". And that will be headline news.
You will be loosing nothing in waiting.

[BenB]

I say eh Aaron, so na ya own proposal dat, eh? Can't you emulate a good example from Akoson? Even for once? Stay for ya Bamenda noh. Be dey di lick Ni John he under foot.

[Aaron Nyangkwe]

BenB

I have no proposal to make, my friend. I am out for real politics. That is the raison d'être of my militancy in the SDF.
Professor Ngwasiri is completely wrong in what he is doing, from a political point of view.
You may have a contrary view. You have a right to it.
That I am Ni John Fru Ndi's bootlicker?
Come on, BenB.
I am for a strongr SDF and Ni John Fru Ndi for now is the man capable of still pilling out the voting crowd that makes a party powerful, not Ngwasiri nor any other person.
That person exist some where, but is not yet available this year nor next year.

The day I will apply to work for your News Organ, do well to ask fo my CS. Thsi forum is not appropriate for such matters.It will not be long, I will soon bounce back in the wriiten Press. I'll like you to judge me then. Journalism production is like some one in a glass haouse. Nor matter where you stand in the house, every body sees you and describe the attire that you have on.
The SDF is also financed by me. And mark you, I am in Douala and not in Bamenda.
You ask me to mak a proposal to a University Don who has taken a rope and want to hang himself? His refined mind should have let him understand that hanging equals to kicking the bucket. And the rest is best known by you.

[Bobgala]

Its always as painful to hear about the SDF as to hear what is going on with the party's hierachy. Ni John fru Ndi is not an ebvlasting ruler nor was he meant to be one. this party started with all these people putting their heads together what has happened today that they will never seem to be understanding anybody?. It important to note that this party is more important to cameroonians than bothe of them. I strongly hold the opinion that Ni john wants to monopolise power at the party's helm but then do not in any case accept that anybody who so ever should chose to fight this ill from the outside. Since all these things aterted i have never heard Ni John saying that he wants to resign as well but he always ready to force other to resign at anytime why. JOHN FRU who then are you intending to go in for reellection with when everybody does not seem good enough. who are you preparing to challenge when all ideal young people have been kicked out of the party. Do u actually feel that at this age you can be any productive anymore?.Instead of pushing the party to go and hang in Etoudi you have chosen to hang onto SDF which was not the primary motive for which we rallied behind you in 1992 with our brothers and sisters loosing their lives.
think about this ok
you really need to think if you can think well again

[vally]

Aaron N

You say there is nobody to run sdf apart dictator fru ndi?Are you sure you are practicising journalism?You must not let people hear this,what a flop.

Fru ndi has enslave some of you guys.

Vally
England.

[Akoson]

Hi Vally,

Don't let your hatred for Fru Ndi spoil your reason. When you read from someone, try to sit back and think hard. Infact, a deficiency in the thought of most guys here often get me sceptical as to the kinds of institutions they brandish and the "light" they claim to bring.

Now, let your emotions NOT rule you. Aaron's just being an SDF militant with his own personal views like you. Just respect his side and opinion. Again, this is his own personal view just as many other journalists. You can only crucify him when he publishes such a statement on paper for the public to consume. Let me just quote him;

"...It will not be long, I will soon bounce back in the wriiten Press. I'll like you to judge me then". So Vally, DON'T GET CONFUSED BETWEEN A JOURNALIST'S PERSONAL VIEW AND WHAT HE PRESENTS...that's very different. No one will crucify you when you crucify him for writing what he wrote to a paper as his work.

I hope I'm reacting to the situation rightly.

Regards,

Son Of Ako - LSE.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
I think the time is near for some people to commit suicide ,when our beloved SDF finally survives this recent crisis.
And MUKETE will be the first,though i don't wish him that.
I want to thank BENB and the tiger son of AKo for that word 'RECONCILIATION',for this is the only way we can rescue this 'baby',rather than 'dividing' it.
I know Mukete and other agents of disruption in this forum wish that this baby be divided,but it can't work! Ha ha ha you and the CPDM must fail!Just wait and see!

TO YOU MOKETE MAN

this page is not meant for you to be COVERING THE WHOLE WEB WITH YOUR LENGTHY WRITINGS.i hate your page more and more.when i see a long page i just quess it is you and is always u.

BACK TO BUSINESS

the whole truth about this NWASIRI MAN is coming bit by bit.I BELIEVE HE IS DEEPLY REGRETING THE NASTY COMMENTS HE MADE IN HIS LAST INTERVIEW THAT fru ndi was not suppose to be the right leader.this totally potrays what actually he wants and not the management.FOR 16yrs he has stood behind the chairman and defended his leadership in several occasions and now because of the nec election he thought he could decieve the people to stand with him.HE IS FIGHTING A BATTLE THAT HE WILL RIP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE THEN DUMP THE PARTY OR SELL IT TO CPDM.

some people may think that fru is afraid of defeat from ben muna and others.this i don´t think so.I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF nac IS ALLOW TO MANAGE THE AFFAIRS OF THE SDF INCLUDING THE ELECTION,HE WIL DISQUALIFY FRU NDI AS A CACDIDATE.the problem with ngwasiri and his camp is to nockout fru by all means irrespctive of the popular support he has from the grass root.HE AND HIS CAMP DON´T LOOK at this but their selfish interest.BEN MUNA, NGWASIRI AND THE REST HAVE STARTED SMELLING THAT THE SDF WILL SOON TAKE POWER IN CAMEROON.THEY KNOW THAT CPDM WILL ALSO DIVIDE WHEN NEXT THEY ARE TO PUT A NEW CANDIADE FOR PRESIDENCY.WITH THESE KNOWLEDGE, these guys want to get this.let thy go and contest fru ndi in any election.for sure,they will be defeated.the few members on their side is not enough for thenm to challende ndi.let us wait and see who is who.

[Aaron Nyangkwe]

Vally(of England)

If blogging on a debate on this forum is "praticising Journalism", then I can tell you that I still need to go to school to qualify. Untill then, please, hold your head together.
If you have some one who can lead the SDF at this point in time, let me know. What has that person got in stock for the militants and the country? Has that candidate planned for an open debate with the current Chairman/candidate? When? If such a candidate can come up with a clear analysis of the balance sheet of the SDF and make clear suggestions as to how he will improve things, I will support him.
Vally should understand that had the SDF been allowed to carry on its initial campaigns of educating the people when it was launched and started doing (without charlatans and/or sponsored Agents coming in to launch Villes mortes and other brutal actions that took the people unaware) Biya would have since abandoned power in this country.
It is when you get to educating the masses and addressing the issues of the masses that these masses adherr to your leadership. That is realistic idealism in political leadership when it come to seeing eye to eye with the base. Any other thing, tantamounts to a coup d'Etat. And in political movements, masses are pitiless. Ask Souleyman Mahamat and his Yaounde abortive convention. You may not like to take this, it will be the same with the Yaounde Ngwasiri dubbed convention.Those of us who have access ti Internet and Newspaper pages do not represent the masses of militants. Let us look before we leap.
Ako's call for reconciliation at this moment in time when the grass root of the Party is very deep in preparation for the convention may be call too late as I see things. The comportment of Professor Ngwasiri all this while is not that which opens the door for dialogue. The Bamenda Teargas incident and the interview in The Post are concrete evidence.
What people like Vally fail to understand is that in a Movement like the SDF, any "Elite" that thinks that he can tussle with the party, will be dumped, because the grassroots knows what they want and who to leads them to what they want. let Fru Ndi tries that, he too will bee dumped. That is the magic with the SDF. Ask Souleyman, Kamdoum, Dorothy Kom, Takoudjou and you name the rest.
It is just a matter of being realistic not bootlicking. By the way, are those who are against Ni John Fru Ndi not boot lickers of Professor Ngwasiri?
The fight for an empowered SDF definitely continues.

[optimistic]

I did enjoy all that is said in this forum,and I think everybody has a point to make and everybody's opinion counts.
But I realise that most of us in this forum are extremists in thinking.I think the best thing is come out with a solution and hence the best thing is not to be in extremes.
I WILL ALSO BEG ON MUKETE AND BenF OR BenB WHO SEEM TO BE THE PRIVATE DETECTIVE(S) IN THIS FORUM TO ALSO INVESTIGATE DEEPLY THE ESEME MURDER CASE AND BRIEF US.GIVE THE FORUM THE FACTS SO THAT THEY CAN KNOW COS SOMEWHERE SOMEHOW,CAMEROONIANS THINK OR FEEL JUSTICE WAS NOT DONE.
WE ARE WAITING FOR YOUR YOUR RESULTS.

[samleyin]

When some people try to be objective by not speaking our language, not dancing to our tunes, we turn to label them the enemy, licking the boots of politicians or blind supporters. My friends, for crying out loud, politics is not war. There must be opposing camps in any struggle in order to provide guarantee and certainty that the incumbent meets its objective.

Ben B,
I will want to first of all acknowledge your trying to be objective and paving reasonable propositions to safe the SDF from its recent scourge of crisis that can lead to its demise. But then again, I want to pull your ears that you should not try to regulate the number or write-ups of any new comer with respect to the number of his contributions. Before you started writing, others had been writing and many had just been reading and are still reading. You try to be neuter in the aspect of the current leadership of the SDF but I tell you your emotions result to your latent allergy been determined through the immunological testing of the name JFN. Truly that name irritates you bros. previously, I asked you the reason for this but you kept me in suspense and promised that when you will start unravelling facts, I should not be reluctant to get to Yaounde. I am still waiting and maybe you stop counting down to an inconsequential doomsday and give me the facts now. You know what I am talking about don’t u? There won’t be any doomsday. There will rather be a disgrace. Even if you try to rewind time, there will never be one. Wait and see bros. In the SDF, authority does not reside in the powers of intellectual and self-satisfied superiority. It lies in the powers of universal suffrage irrespective of any social status quo. The beginning of an appointed body (NAC) to raise its shoulder over an elected body is the beginning of the disgrace because it will never work. Your points were good especially the second one but I tell you, moving over to Yaounde to contest in an election with Muna is the beginning of the violations of the constitution again because Muna’s candidature had already been annulled. Besides, any political party has its capital which must not necessarily be the national capital. The CPDM will never influence anything in Bamenda because the individuals involve shall risk mob lynching. This is why we will always trust congress hall Bamenda. Your choice of word – RECONCILIATION is the best for me too but should come just after the convention. In this way, job consciousness in the party’s offices will be re-established. Lets give it the chance to see how far German, USA, UK and French support will support the Yaounde convention. Lets see how the delegates of Grand North and Littoral will attend Yaounde convention.

Knganjo,

Why even bother to read Mukete’s postings. You can just as well scroll down the papyrus ribbon. The instructions came from him because he realised they were not authentic. Why shouldn’t we expect those posting fictional blather not to support journalists that violate professional norms? This discombobulated one is calling Muna a Professor. God forbid! Does he even know he took 8 years to go through a law school? How long will he take then to merit a professor title? Eternity.

Momo,

Welcome back. I can see you are back to chastise those who do not hurl praises to your idol Mukete. You are now taking a firm grip on Aaron too after Akonson eh. You know say u dull plenty big man. I b don tell you say make you find some place shiddon di read daso. I no want talk for you again and stop attacking persons in this forum. Even a sheep as you do call people do obey their master and their master always does well to chase off the wolves. This is the difference with you. Get this straight for it is just a warning before I truway hot wata for your face.

One thing we all fail to realise is that, the minority will never agree with the majority and will always wish anything evil, I mean anything( just like Ben B) to befall the majority despite their belabouring to bring about good changes. They will tell you it is the last kick of a dying horse, it is being buried, it will come to be history. Let us wait and see. All this things are divine temptations that had already been written. Many have tried and fail so we are not surprise.

To the best of my knowledge, Prof Nkwi is not Professor of Law. Haven't got much time to comment on this but still stick to my point:Attack his political blunder and not his academic background. These Profs know the truth but decide to play the game.

Terribobs,
Welcome back. you told me to wait a couple of minutes. I am happy you are back to tell us the truth again and I am still waiting and waiting. Ben B is not doing bad but he did not give me the answers either. Still waiting. Prof Nkwi is just objective but we brand him all sorts of name because he doesn't want to speak the wrong language. I am waiting for you to dilute the thoughts I am still having. ( NO INSULTs).

[Akoson]

Hello Readers,

I wish to add something. And that something's to draw us to see our naivity and short-sightedness. We only look at what'll happen during the convention. We only base our interest on who'll disgrace the other by having the FOLLOWING on that day. That day's NOT the D-day. Rather the D-days are many. Permit me term the "D-days" as post-convention days. The question's what'll happen should the two conventions hold? Of course, two SDFs will result. This'll leave one faction of the SDF readily susceptible to giving in to the CPDM. Exactly what we see with UPC. We all know how power hungry some of these guys are. They wanna be called Prime ministers. And when the CPDM placades someone to join the government, note that it is the SDF that has joined the government. That's my fear!!! And that's the issue. We must do everything possible to stop it from happening.

Aaron, I don't think that reconciliation's too late. It's better late than never, remember? You only limit your idea on whether Ngwasiri will be disgraced. Everyone knows that he'll be cos only he, Ngwasiri and his wife'll attend the Yaounde convention. The guy's just being stubborn and not wanting to stoop low. He thinks it's going to be disgraceful. Even he(Ngwasiri) knows that he doesn't have the FOLLOWING. The point's that when the convention holds, it doesn't matter on the number of people who turned-up. What matters is that there's going to be two SDFs and that'll make the CPDM-runned government be happy to SELECT their SDF and provide them MINISTERIAL positions...something they're in dire need of.

Samleyin, you kicked momo's ass. Thumbs up. It was good writing his own piece in that language. It tells any new commer who reads it that momo's an ?????. I differ with you that reconciliation should come only after the convention. What convention? Did you mean Conventions or convention??

Let's think and rethink this issue.

Eyes Of A tiger, Son Of Ako - LSE.

It is obvious that there will only be one Convention. Behold in Bamenda. Who are those who will go to Yaounde. I tell you only Ngwasiri and Muna. There will only be a Convention. Mark my word. The yaounde thing is just going tho be a conspiracy gathering. Then they will know that the power comes from the grass routes and not from intellectual capacities.

[Watesih]

BenF,
When you first announced yourself here,people thought they were going to drink deep in to the objectivity you seemed to be the flag bearer.But everyday that passes,you continue to wallow in the extremism you accuse others of.When you jumped on the bandwagon,you professed unconditional love for Fru Ndi.This in itself was misleading,because non of those you brand today as Fru Ndi`s bootlickers have never come out shouting love for him.They have always made it clear to Cameroonians ,that this man Fru Ndi has made mistakes and that as far as he wants to wash his dirty linen in the house,rather than in the market place,they will keep supporting him.This because they do not want the baby to be thrown out with the bath water.Your thousand write ups for the past few days have finally brought out the polarising entity you are.Not only do you not have any topic of predilection apart from those who dare say anything good about Fru Ndi,you even go to the level of questioning their existence,"I say eh ,na wosai this one comoot?"
This extremism of yours wouldn`t have been concealed for long.Did we not hear you the other day calling on a National leader like Fru Ndi,to involve himself in a life of thuggery and go over to Yaounde to storm Ngwasiri`s convention.
So how do you want people to look at you two days after,when you start trumpeting Reconciliation ,and at the same time not wanting people like Howard to mention a word about the person you are calling on to reconcile with Prof. Ngwasiri.
Its a pity you are behaving like an overcharged electron.The simple fact of posting your contributions over and over,and
even tranposing old ones to new stories that come up shows that you want to be seen and heard at all cost;this is extremism.The moral authority and political know-how you have been claiming here has been dashed,
because as a politician,it is an inexcusable political blunder to plan to use force to stifle political activity or dissent.
BenF,as a youngman you should know that people prefer somebody who is consistent even when they are not in a one to one correspondence with him.When you skip from one roof top to another pretending to be all seeing,people make light of your ideas.Thats why you have tried hard here to lure people into your journalism for a week,but no body lent an ear to all the questions you posed .You pretend to know a lot,you ask questions ,propose solutions and contradict
yourself turn in turn.Here you,"Ni John?,
Call Ngwasiri for talks? Who be that Ngwasiri sef?".All these you pretend to be what should be in another persons mind.You are a God sampling what people have in their minds.
I Watesih want to make it clear to you that your song about Reconciliation today is a farce.First to support your idea of Fru Ndi being a deity,you say you heard(all your stories are either inside other people`s minds or you always hear that...)that in his hometown no one dares raise an eyebrow when he`s around.This already means that he is not a partner for reconciliation.
Secondly ,you have done nothing to tell people what Ngwasiri should do to diffuse the tension.You only think Fru Ndi whom you term a deity,and whom Ngwasiri terms illegal
,assassin should be the one to go after people.Fru Ndi is not estranged in anyway.
You can talk reconciliation with somebody who has a semblance of compassion in him,not somebody multiplying booby traps on the way.For the past two weeks ngwasiri has gone from Fru Ndi trying to assassinate him,to confirming his convention in Yaounde,
to illegally trying to cheat the party out of its money at MINADT,to rejecting reconciliation and branding Fru Ndi assassin.These are the actions of somebody who has a hidden agenda.Cameroonians should allow him to be delivered of the baby he is carrying.How can you reconcile with somebody ,who after every two days goes to his Cpdm lords asking them to put an end to the stay of execution they granted the SDf.If he is hell bound,then there`s nothing to hold him back now.Those who are talking reconciliation see it in a different way and he looks at it fom a different angle.
BenF,that your small song of two SDF does no longer bring fear to SDF militants.
They have stayed through these crises and have braced themselves to stay the course and bring shame to people like Ngwasiri.They did it in Fundong.They will be doing it again in the nearest future.The
pretext of whether we are going to have two SDF or not is a vague sing-song now.Ngwasiri
should carry on with his convention in Yaounde,and Fru Ndi should carry on with his.After the two conventions we are going to see whether Ngwasiri will keep programming SDF meetings,communiques on the same day like those programmed by Fru Ndi.

Ngwasiri hospitalized after Jua’s Crushing defeat

-MUNA ESCAPES TO FRANCE
Supporters of Hon. Paulinus Jua are still to recover from the crushing defeat he suffered a fortnight ago from the hands of John Fru Ndi during the Northwest SDF Provincial primaries ahead of the party’s National Convention.
While Ngwasiri, a long time patient went into coma immediately he got news of the result, their main financier, Bernard Muna escaped to France for financial reinforcement, The Heron was reliably informed.
Ngwasiri, The Heron learnt collapsed several times when news reached him that their candidate to challenge John Fru Ndi at the Northwest SDF provincial primaries, Paulinus Jua was beaten beyond control.
Ngwasiri, who for the past two months has been under intense heat and high blood pressure was first rushed to the Buea General Hospital. He spent some days there, but the situation degenerated as his blood pressure reportedly increased. The wife evacuated him to the Douala Reference Hospital where he is currently receiving medical attention. The Heron learnt that last Thursday May 4, Ngwasiri collapsed several times and the family was already afraid that he might give up the ghost, but the medical team insisted that he be taken to Douala Reference hospital.
His dismissal from the SDF has greatly contributed to the deplorable state of his health. When he was an SDF Member of Parliament, the party usually applies for him to be evacuated to Europe for regular medical attention. But since his expulsion, the SDF Parliamentary Group can no more press for him to be evacuated to Europe.
By the time of going to press yesterday, the sacked MP was still lying critically ill in the Douala’s Reference hospital.
As for Barrister Bernard Muna, The Heron equally learnt that the defeat was an embarrassment to him, having pumped in huge sums of money for the exercise. Muna who has already run short of cash, our source said, was equally traumatized with the shocking results olf 462 for Fru Ndi and barely 7 for their candidate, Jua. According to some of his aides, he left for France to brief the authorities there about his botch attempts against the SDF and Fru Ndi.
Muna was unable to withstand the heat last weekend in Bamenda to address the general assembly of Cameroon Association of English Speaking Journalists, CAMASEJ. The agenda featured Muna as one of the key speakers who was to deliver a talk on press freedom. Although several journalists protested against his presence in their assembly, he however failed to show up. The outgone National President of CAMASEJ, Nkemanyang Paul later took an excuse that he was not in the country.
Before his departure to France via Britain early last week, Muna is said to have expressed the wish to dialogue with Fru Ndi, having discovered that the man was too powerful for any adventurer of his caliber to challenge. As the local adage goes: “Man pass you, carry ei bag.” But his greatest disappointment, our source said has been the defeat of Paulinus Jua. Although he and his “gang” were very aware of the popularity of John Fru Ndi, they least expected Jua garner barely seven votes. The defeat reportedly frightened the “gang” and they are running now helter skelter.
For his part, the main victim, Paulinus Jua is reportedly contemplating to quit politics at the end of his current parliamentary mandate, although the game has already quit him. A very dark political future awaits him should he dare attempt a third mandate. His division of origin, Boyo, has put the final nail on his political coffin when they rejected him by 100% during the last SDF provincial primaries for the post of National Chairman of the party. Latest information just reaching me today says Ngwasiri's health situation has degenerated and he has been moved to a Yaounde based specialist.

No peace deal between Fru Ndi and Ngwasiri

The authorities of the Social Democratic Front, SDF have frowned at a misleading headline in The Herald newspaper of Monday 8 – 9, 2006. The article reported from Yaounde and citing sources from Buea and Bamenda is said to have angered SDF militants across the country. Captioned “Fru Ndi vs. Ngwasiri peace framework announced”, it alleges that Fru Ndi and Ngwasiri have agreed in principle to reconcile.
A certain Divine Mokosso, said to be a Buea resident claimed that his NGO was at the center of the deal.
But the claim is said to be a fake and questionable one. Several attempts by this reporter to get any official of the SDF party comment on the issue proved futile, but a close aid of the National Chairman, John Fru Ndi who requested for anonymity categorically refuted the allegations. The source described the publication as a fiction and an attempt by detractors to derail the party from its direction. According to the source, the preoccupation of the party now was the organization of the Bamenda convention and not peace moves with adventurers.
The source said the SDF, and not Fru Ndi expelled Ngwasiri. And that if there had to be any reconciliation, it would be between the party and Ngwasiri and not with Fru Ndi. The source did not see any stakes that would cause the party to engage dialogue with Ngwasiri whom the party has expelled, just like several others.
However, the Fru Ndi source questioned the integrity of the said peace broker, Mokosso Divine and referred to him as a quack seeking for cheap publicity. According to the source, no one has ever met Fru Ndi at the end of an NGO seeking for reconciliation with the rebels.
It should be noted that the said Mokosso Divine was in the center of another cheap publicity during the Buea University crisis. He came out with a bogus claim that his NGO has struck a peace deal between the students and the authorities, a claim that was rejected by the students. He is widely known in Buea, where he lives as an impostor and a nuisance.

Why waste valuable time discussing about Ngwassiri and Ben Muna. The truth is that these guys are not more popular than any of us are to the average Cameroonian.

The main reason why these two are agitating is because of their un-popularity in Cameroon.When Ben Muna was the camppaign manager of Ni John, he thought he could easily divert the people's loyalty but unfortunately his father's reputation has not been forgotten and that is the true obstacle he has now.This explains why Mbah Ndam is more popular in Mbengwi than Muna.Even in the absence of Mbah Ndam I don't think Muna would be a favourite candidate in that area

And for massa Ngwassiri, he does not understand why Ni John is more popular than him.Both of them are founding fathers and he thought that being a prof in Law would give him an added advantage but that seems not to be the case.Now he has done his worst by exposing his greed.I wonder what would become of him.Without the support of ni John he could not have won the SDF primaries in his area.Who would campaign for him next time?

And for the Mbangwa boy Ashwel Malabo, why do you think I am bothered by the deeds of Mbangwa people? I guess you got what you wanted and I hope you stay happy.Why don't you start sending motions of support now that you have been given cassava tools?

"Lebialem Women Offered Cassava Grating Machines" Can you guess why the post published that article? So that you could start sending motions of support.Instead,you are wasting your time on me.I don't have anything to discuss with you.Again! please don't take it personal and start sending me emails.Write what ever you want on this forum.

And for your infos Molabo boy,if you need attention, send a picture of yours on this site (posing naked).Hopefully,people would make some comments.I know that you are the kind of Ngwassiri mad dog who would start an unnessary problem just to seek for attention.Sorry to tell you that I don't have time for that.

[knganjo]

Reconciliation? With who? Akoson ,I beg tyo differ.Ngwasiri will disappear from the political scene after May 26th.No right thinking individual doubts this.He has destroyed his political career.Let's all wait and see.Mukete did you say you will prove to me that Nkwi is not a renounce professor? Go ahead if you think you have any sunstance to offer.Google yourself on the net and you will see who Nkwi is.

[samleyin]

If the above article pasted right here by MUKETE is true, then I call on all contributors to start praying for Professor Ngwasiri. I emplore you all to pray for the learned professor to get a very qucik recovery. Remember politics is just a game and we should not wish dead on any body. The quest for power did not mean people should get ill. It can take Cameroon so many years to get a person with an academic valour like Prof but it takes just seconds to lose him. We should not forget who we are no matter what we are. Let us start praying right now. God is not like Ben B(F) who will ask 'wuside this one komot?'. Even YOU can make a difference if you pray just for one minute. so let us pray...........................

The post-Biya era is fast closing in and time waits for no one. The SDF is arming itself for this and has no time to waste people who have their senses in their stomachs. The SDF can not be like the re-legalized UPC that is in faction. The UPC lost it steam when the oppressive regime of Ahidjo upon the counsel of the French government banned it and its leadership went on exile.A local and coherent base no more existed that when time for multipartism came in people who were expelled from that party were cajolled by the power that be to quickly get papers and relegalize the party. You can even see that one of the UPC leaders (Kodock) is claiiming that he has property right over the acronym UPC.The SDF is a different case and story because there is a lot below the bridge here.
You stated that Ngwasiri can hold a convention with his wife and it be dubbed and accepted as a second SDF convention. If the RDPC regime decides to deal with that one, as it is wont to do,then they know what they are calling for and should expect it. If the RDPC want a piece of the SDF,in a normal way, all they need to do is provide the institutions requested by our party and ameliorate the social welfare of Cameroonian people. A thing they can never do.
Finally, when you talk of reconciliation, mark you thatProfessor Ngwasiri is John Fru Ndi's representative in Parliament before he was sacked from the party.He has taken up residence in Yaounde or Buea, thus abandoning his constituency. So you think that the Chairman will have to abandon the thousands of his constituents to go after him? We are not in the Bible where you have the Shepherd and his lost sheep. If you apply that in politics, you are lost. I am a political pragmatist, so, you can bear with me for not accepting anything in the name of a so called reconciliation at this point in time.

I know BenB F will pull his dagger for my head, he can just go ahead. I have no qualms.

[BenB]

Weh massa, na which kind pipo dem dis noh? How can you celebrate someone's misfortune because he's disagreeing with your idol? I thought we all on this forum are grown ups with a basic notion of decency.

Even sef, if Ngwasiri were truly down and in hospital, who is that soothsayer among you who could establish with certainty that it has to do with Jua's defeat? When Ngwasiri was so badly down two years ago and spent several months in the US on teatment and check ups, whose defeat was he brooding over then? Let's not go that low. Let's not be so mean, my friends.

Who even told them that Ngwasiri was banking on Fru Ndi's defeat in the NW primaries? Would he, when he's cocksure that Fru Ndi won't go to their Yaounde Convention and so he's out of their way?

Let's look for something else to say. If man jam ting for tok, make he shidon quiet. And mind you, Ngwasiri's group may just well go on with their Yaounde Convention even if their "spiritual guide" were lying in hospital and they may even use that as propaganda booster, as a show of martyrdom that he's fighting a good fight even on his "dying" bed.

Let's put heads together here for ways to diffuse this time bomb instead of living in a fool's paradise over Ngwasiri's imminent demise. The SDF crisis won't go away even if Ngwasiri died this very moment.

Someone here prays, Ah make de "fool" die sef, eh? Goodluck.

Watesih,
I can see how you are doing your utmost to avoid providing answers to BenB's missiles. Do well to answer them. Samleyin can give you a helping hand. Watesih and Samleyin, Aaron is not helping your course. He needs help. I wonder if he can re-read his write-up and still be proud to say I wrote that.
Still around.

[BenB]

Doubt who posted that story on this forum if you think it can't be Mukete. But as to whether a newspaper printed that story, don't doubt it.

The Heron, NOT The Herald, certainly printed that story. If you're in Cameroon and have been reading the papers, you won't be surprised The Heron would print that. That's where Mbah Ndam transfered to when Motomu dumped him. This is information you can verify. It's good journalism this time, eh?

But the content of the story, the sweeping comments made therein, should be good news to some of you, so why doubt it?

Amen Samleyin, for you goodwill prayer. God bless you.

Tita,
You began well and made the same error like those you are lambasting. When an anti-JFN doubts Prof. Nkwi's academic credentials and pro-JFNs doubt Profs. Ngwasiri and Asonganyi's credentials what can we draw as conclusion?
Molaba, a commendable point on cameroonian politics(attacks and counter attacks).

Samleyin there are many more on this forum who should heed the advice u gave Momo.

[mukete]

Readers are seeing the same old game resurfacing here. People are now using the name "MUKETE" to cause confusion or divert attention. Unfortunately for them, readers can judge whenever I write. Only people like Klamenceau wouldn't be quick to realize that it was someone else writing as
MUKETE on May 12, 2006 at 10.59 AM. I see the hand of REXON WASHOW alias TAYONG in this childish game. It wouldn't surprise me if people like Klamenceau, Watesih, Akoson, Aaron Nyangkwe, and Knganjo are the people using the name Mukete. They have done this before. Yet they labor in vain as they try to use the name Mukete to divert attention.

No one will doubt the fact that my writing and contributions are UNIQUE in this forum and they carry an originality that no one can copy or imitate.

A close look at my contributions would reveal that my name does not appear on the front page as "MUKETE" but as mukete. If readers doubt and want to be very such, they should use my e-mail address (mukete_l@yahoo.com) that accompanies my contributions to send me e-mails. When I receive the e-mails I will confirm it through this very forum.

Before next monday I will be posting a research finding. My originality will be there. Facing defeat, my opponents are using the methods that failed. They have not yet seen anything.

Mukete
(Original Mukete)

[Fon Lawrence]

I hold strongly that my decision to ignore Mukete was just the right one.From his reactions I see that I prodded him just at the right point.He tried to impersonate as Willy to lure me in vain.I call on others to follow suit and declare Mukete a persona non grata and this will call him to order.Concerning the above article concerning the health of Prof.Ngwasiri and carrying Mukete´s name, I reserve my comments for it is impossible that it is Mukete who copied and pasted.

If some of us declared that we were taking a break for other commiments,why should someone think that we are running away? Running away from what in the first place? From responding to fiction? Are we here to discuss about things that affect our future and that of our children or to read fiction.If someone has the ability to excel in fiction writing,it is a good talent being used at the wrong place at a wrong time.
To my brother Akoson
Don´t be afraid that there will be two SDFs.It is completely out of place to call a political monster for reconcillation.If the CPDM was able to make use of the UPC divide,it was because both factions had militants proven by the fact that they both had seats in Parliament.Do you think that if Ngwasiri and wife,Muna and wife hold a convention in Yaounde and come out with SDF Ngwasiri and elections are organised and they cannot proof their wealth as it is clear,the CDPM will go after them for alliance? Ditch it.

A few days to the convention,has anyone heard anything about the organisation of the Yaounde convention;Ngwasiri is unable to come out with a new list of an organising committee after he was repudiated in the first attempt.Only someone with no foresight will turn up for Ngwasiri´s convention in Yaounde. People like Valley of England who have become numbed because of their hatred for Fru Ndi will want to dispute the fact that Ngwasiri has come to the end of his political career.Those who do not see this should note this day.

Recent events have shown that Fru Ndi is redoubtable;in another term formidable.From Ngwasiri´s interview to Jua´s campaign,it is clear that Fru has nothing to hide.I like him for two things;his veracity and consistency ,even if he has his weaknesses in handling the present crisis rocking the SDF,he remain a better choice.

Ben B(F),

God bless you too.
I can see you were putting forth the best stratagem in which measures could be realised to label JFN a full-fledged thug whose talons and incisors have attained the complete plumage of transfromation of a perfect vampire. Are you not the one who said JFN has got all it takes to beat Muna and Ngwasiri in Yaounde convention? There you come again to say even if prof was lying on a sick bed or dying, it will be a spiritual guide, show of matyrdom, propaganda booster for academic criminals to anihilate JFN`s political career. You try to use three perfect descriptions of basket of words so that it could pave your readers thoughts to understand the way stuborn intellectuals could crush Fru`s head on the wall. Ben B, do you realise the contradictions you are drowning your person into? You just failed again this time. you continue to ask questions when you and I have a little secret. Aren`t you the one who promised to unravel me the secrets in Yaounde? I am ready to go there and dig the rigging apparatus that will enable us realise JFN is a small object that should stop influencing our minds. You are just being stuborn Ben B and this time the words you used did dot match perfectly. It should not be `if you jam ting for tok.........`, it should rather be `if you kill man yi no die, pressam with your hand.` Ask forchive Njitam to tell you better. We can now realise the love you were proclaiming you had for Fru Ndi in you time of arrival. We can now undertand perfectly the love you told us those who know you (mukete) can tell you have for Fru Ndi. `Pele` love eh? You don ask yi he deny eh? We do not want you to like Fru. We want you to reason objectively. We want you to follow a just course. Blind people will only lead you all into the bottomless pit oh. come join the winning team now for the door is wide open. Ben B wuside you go go after May 22? maybe you will show us another Nkemngu demonstration. Black legs are demonstrators capable of perfect demonstrations. They don`t have conciences. They don`t care what peole will say about them. They don`t care if things turn the other way round. They lack the basic qualities of tolerance and peseverance. All you put foward are the very allegations without a single proof. Accusations and counter accusations. All these boil down to HATE bros. Hmmm I can see one of your pals Terribobs passed out long ago. He just surfaces to chip in some few lines on academics. you can smash his relay botton with you legs and press yours with your fingers. In this way you will help him carry on from where he dropped. Steam and vapour is drying out. Just hope you guys can continue even after may 22. you are just being stuborn because `man don pass you you di deny for carry yi bag.` Let us wait and see. I know you will spring back
like a wounded. Spring with my answers as well because I am still waiting.

[mukete]

This is THE ORIGINAL MUKETE writing!

When I see people trying to use strategies that have failed, I laugh. Readers would recall how those who were against me last year actually GERMINATED many "MUKETES" to distort what I have been writing. Last year, on realizing that I was too hard to be intimidated, they started using names like "Mukete Senior", Mukete Junior", "Mukete 4", "Sir Mukete", etc. Some even went as far as using these names to ask for forgiveness to give the impression that it was I, THE ORIGINAL MUKETE that was asking for forgiveness.

But what all these SHIT NO CLEAN LASSES forgot to understand was the simple fact that of ALL THOSE WHO WRITE HERE, I, THE ORIGINAL MUKETE, has a unique and original way of writting. Any reade to this forum, even when getting up from sleep, would be able to identify what I, THE ORIGINAL MUKETE has written. I am not praising my writing style or ability, but I am staing the clean observation on the originality of what I write. To quote one reader last year, at the peak of when some SHIT NO CLEAN LASSES were using my name, "NO ONE CAN WRITE LIKE MUKETE." This was the same writer who stated that, :This Mukete is a Rock."

This year around, when these same Baboons wanted to transform this forum into a congregation to offer undeserved praises to their stupid God - Ni John Fru Ndi - I stood against them. I did not only tell them that there were wrong, I pushed them into their shells. Some gathered courage and started a fight against me but when they realized that no degree of intimidations would bend me, they tried their old technique to see if it would work this time. This is how another "Patrick Ngando Mukete" germinated in this forum. Following this outdated method to confuse readers, I immediately fired another truth and fact about their Ntarikon god. Since then, the said "Patrick Mukete" has gone into hidding.

Unable to withstand the truth I bring to this forum, they are now trying to test another priimitive method. Another "MUKETE" has been germinated to misrepresent the ORIGINAL MUKETE. In doing this the SHIT NO CLEAN LASSES using this primitive method forget to know that I have since posted an identification number in this forum and that I have asked readers to keep this identification number for future references. I had to do this because I predicted all what is happening now.

I understand why these blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi are so confused. The Bamenda Convention is fast approaching and they stupidly think that my truth can bring about Ni John Fru Ndi's defeat during the convention. Who born dog? Who tell them that I am interested in the outcome of the Bamenda convention? Who tell them that Ni John Fru Ndi's position as Chairman of his own faction of the SDF is threatened? These Baboons fail to understand that Ni John Fru Ndi has enslaved all the delegates. Besides, all the delegates know that if Ni John Fru Ndi falls, all of them will have to fall with him. M. Mbami of Douala and Ni John Fru Ndi are the only people who know how the finances of the SDF are managed. The fact that Littoral SDF is boosting that M. Mbami is the only unchallenged contesting Candidate for the SDF treasury, points to the mafia that Ni John Fru Ndi has instituted in the SDF. This is a man who has not presented any financial statement on the SDF since it was created.

To hell with the 100% votes that Ni John Fru Ndi is already sure to collect from the Bamenda convention. To hell to those who will vote and will be voted during the Bamenda convention. What has a pig got to do with a muslim shrine?

To ask Knganjo, Watesih, Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Akoson, AAron Nyangkew (the most experienced Anglophone Journalist), Renne Murena (the face behind the mask) if it is another person writing with the name "MUKETE" would be just like asking the Pope in the vatican if he believes in the virgin Mary.

I invite to germinate more MUKETE,s and let our able readers watch and see if this will make me put the LIGHT I carry under the bed. If they have refused to see the LIGHT and have decided to remain in nocturnal darkness, then they should allow other readers to see the LIGHT I bring.

As I always say, THESE BABOONS HAVE NOT READ ANYTHING YET. I WILL PUSH THEM INTO HIDDING. Rexon Washow alias Tayong can not be taking cover to write the way he is now doing. Let them continue to use their names as I, THE ORIGINAL MUKETE" has continued to do. If I were to take their harmless threats into consideration, I would have since changed my name.

I invite many more "MUKETEs) to come up before I post my most recent research findings.

And before I end this contribution, I want to warn all of them not to jump into dancing that they are diverting me from my duties. I am merely writing this clarification just because I have nothing now urgent to present. They have been asked to use insults or my names to divert me from writing. If the fast approaching Bamenda convention is their problem, then I would like to tell them that my vision goes farv far beyond. Bamenda convention or no Bamenda convention, has nothing to do with my position. I even care less about the Yaounde convention. And I expect nothing good from both.

My attention is focused on those who have been using us for their selfish interests. And no one would dispute the fact that after President Paul Biya, the person who comes next in the destruction of our country is NI JOHN FRU NDI. This is the bitter truth and those who would not want to hear this can go and hang. And if I see them hanging simply because I dare criticize a butcher of democracy, then I will be the one to make sure that the hanging exercise goes on well.

correction
last sentence "he remains the best choice"

[Che Sunday (Dr.)]

No matter what intentions Ngwasiri can offer in defense of his position, he can never be correct. Hosting a separate convention under the SDF banner is legally wrong. The name "SDF" is like a pattent, belonging to one social or political organization. Using it without the consent of the party is infringement. If he so wishes to form a political party and have it registered, he is well within his right to do so, but not seek political ambitions on the wings of the SDF, most epecially trying to form a splinter group. I would have thought he had some green matter upstairs to guide him along these lines, but I am wrong.

[JTS]

I am yet to see someone as primitive as this samleyin.

[BenB]

See how this forum fuels discussions and influences decisions over the SDF debate.

Someone said here that we, on this forum, are wasting our time and energies writing things on the internet to insult Ni John, things which the grassroots militants don't read. That person said the grassroots know and trust Ni John and no amount of writing on the internet will change their minds about Ni John.

That sounds nearly true. Some of us have this much access to the internet just because of the nature of our jobs. Some of us work at cybercafés (internet shops), international organisations or other multinational companies that give us more-than-ordinary access to the internet which the average Cameroonian cannot afford.

As for those abroad, they can sleep with their fingers on their home computer with a magic devise that maybe notifies them when their hated Watesih or Akoson or Mukete or Klemenceau has landed stuff for them to hit right back, fire-for-fire.

Not so for the average "pawa" militant in the hinterlands of Akwaya or Moloundou or Furu Awa, who may not even have electricity in the first place and only waits for the opportunity to "vote for change" even if their vote won't count. Internet access is not easy even for the fellows on Commercial Avenue Bamenda or Limbe for whom internet connectivity is more a headache than kick-starting the engine of a 1960 Volks Wagen Beattle.

Internet access is equally a problem in another sense even for the budding intellectuals (students) in Molyko-Buea and Bonamoussadi-Yaounde who have to do opportunity cost over their last 200frs between eating "atchombo" and buying one hour of unsure internet time. Most times they end up using just about half that time because of poor connectivity or they have to first read through a bulk of mails accumulated over weeks when they couldn't afford the choice; little time is thus left for them to read silly quarrels like ours on the internet.

So who is reading all the stuff we post here and who is influenced by them? Someone here said only us. We write am, we read am we sef sef, eh? Dog di back, train di pass like say notin no di happen, eh?

Not quite true. Check this with any of the protagonists in this SDF fracas. They use this forum like the Bible. They (on both sides) use statements from this forum. Some even copy and print out whole postings or paragraphs from here to demonstrate how well their message is understood. Some names on this forum are already household names around the country and among those involved in this debate. Some of you might have already launched a political career through this forum.

And if you know what two-step flow means in mass communication, you'll understand that opinion is formed at some level, distributed down to some level and sips further down however gradually and "noiselessly" to the people, the grassroots.

Let's mind what we post on this forum. They go far. They have a consequence on peoples lives, on our democracy, on the SDF, on Ni John, on Ngwasiri, etc...

Ngwasiri vs Nkwi

Hi,

Just to refresh memories on the raging quarrel between Ngwasiri and Nkwi. I know some of us might not have followed from the genesis or we might have lost track amidst the overload of stuff on this forum. Hope this serves that purpose.

First, Nkwi: April 3, 2006

Varsity Don Rescues Fru Ndi From Insults
By Kini Nsom

Prof. Paul Nchoji Nkwi, member of the National Executive Committee, NEC, of the SDF party, has attributed the deepening in the party to the claims that some people who call themselves intellectuals are insulting Chairman Ni John Fru Ndi rather carelessly.

"Fru Ndi is a leader with his own vision and idiosyncrasies and people should not just insult him because they see things differently," Prof. Nkwi stated in a chat with The Post recently.

Prof. Nkwi who lectures Anthropology in several African Universities debunked accusations that Fru Ndi and a few people were in a conspiracy to ease out intellectuals from the party. He took great exception to those who, he said, arrogantly call themselves intellectuals just because they have university degrees.

Said he: "In politics, it is what you deliver at the end that is important and not the intellectual luggage that you carry. He said the former British Premier, John Major, who was a trade unionist, never went to the university, but that he was able to emerge in politics and provide constructive leadership for the conservative party.

According to him, an intellectual is somebody who is able to marshal productive ideas that will serve his society.
He said the intellectuals in politics who cannot lead Cameroonians to the expected political paradise should not call themselves intellectuals. He said Fru Ndi is a normal human being, who has his own weaknesses, but that it was wrong for the party officials to attack and criticise him in the public.

According to him, any leader who is criticised publicly by his or her close collaborators is bound to be aggressive. "People get up at NEC meetings and insult Fru Ndi. How do you insult your leader?" he wondered.

As the Chairman of the Social and Cultural affairs Committee of the SDF, Prof. Nkwi said he has a way of resolving his differences with Fru Ndi. "I go to his house and we debate on ideas," he said. He warned that differences in the party should not be blown out of proportion.

He said it was necessary for the party officials to tolerate each other's weaknesses, and not wash their dirty linen in public. Going by him, those officials who go out to the public and accuse Fru Ndi of all sorts of things, including calling him a fool, are out to destroy the party.

Prof. Nkwi said that it was ridiculous for some party officials to claim that NAC is superior to NEC when the latter is a body that is elected during the Convention by delegates from all the 10 Provinces of Cameroon. NEC, he said, is the organ that takes decisions and guides the party while NAC is only an advisory body.

The University don equally saw a silver lining in the SDF crisis. He said any human organisation only re-energises itself and emerges strong from a crisis situation. He said it is usually in such a situation that solutions to problems are sought. Citing the crisis presently rocking the Morgan Tsangarai-led opposition party in Zimbabwe, Prof. Nkwi said the SDF crisis was not unique.

He said the upcoming SDF Convention in May will be a forum for the party to re-examine itself and get out of problems. Another way to get out of crisis, he stated, was for Fru Ndi to behave like a sympathetic father and tolerate even children that insult him.

"There should be a consensus for those who believe that they know more than Fru Ndi, because, we are complimentary he said. To him, such complimentarity would enable both parties to put their energies together and build a better future for Cameroon," he proposed.

Prof. Nkwi declared his intention to rerun for the post of the Chairman of Social and Cultural Committee in the up coming convention. He said he was the one who produced a codified and written social policy of the party, adding that anybody who wanted to challenge him should prove that he or she could do better.

Now, Ngwasiri: April 13, 2006

Ngwasiri Answers Professor Nkwi
Hon. Prof. C. N. Ngwasiri

I wish to correct some inaccurate and sweeping statements made by Professor Nkwi in his article titled "Varsity Don Rescues Fru Ndi From Insults" which was published in "The Post" newspaper No.0753 of April 3, 2006.

The first correction I want to make is Professor Nkwi's assertion that the National Advisory Council (NAC) of the SDF "is only an advisory body". I disagree with the Professor and refer him to section 11(5) sub-paragraphs (a) to (k) of the SDF constitution, which define the "powers and functions" of NAC.

I cite just two of them. Sub-paragraph (g), which states that NAC "shall adopt and promote statements of policy consonant with the fundamental principles of democracy" makes NAC a policy-making organ of the Party.

And sub-paragraph (j), which provides that NAC shall "..strengthen the role of the Party by ensuring that action taken by the National Convention, the National Executive Committee or any other organs of the Party shall be consistent with the fundamental principles of democracy which have sustained the Party," makes NAC the guardian of the SDF constitution to ensure checks and balances among ALL the other organs of the Party, including the Convention, which is the highest organ.

The second correction is that I am not aware of any SDF militant who has ever called the National Chairman "a fool". In his article, Professor Nkwi betrays not only his ignorance of the SDF constitution but also of what is currently going on in the Party.

At the latest NEC meeting of March 25, 2006, NEC admitted the constitutional amendment proposals of Dr. Tandap, Hons. Mbah Ndam and Yoyo, by which only the National Chairman would be elected at the SDF Convention and he will then proceed to appoint the rest of the NEC members.

Even though the Convention has not yet adopted this proposal, Mr. Fru Ndi and NEC are already implementing it as virtually no primaries have been organized in view of next month's Convention. Probably unaware of this, Professor Nkwi in his article declared his intention to run for the post of Chairman of the Social and Cultural Affairs Committee, which he occupied in the out-going NEC.

What he should have declared was his intention to apply to the National Chairman to appoint him to that post. That is the SDF, Fru Ndi's version, which has no regard for the SDF constitution.

The stand of the authentic SDF, which has been under the management of the National Advisory Council since February 13, 2006 is different. It believes in the sanctity of the SDF constitution, which is a contract binding on all it militants without exception.

All militants of the Party are called upon to prepare for the Yaounde Convention, which shall be held from May 26 to 28, 2006. We have already obtained the required Government authorization for the Convention and a hall with 1.500 seats has been secured at the Yaounde Conference Centre for the three days of the Convention.

So, Professor Nkwi and all other SDF militants, who intend to contest elections into NEC rather than to apply for appointments to that organ of the Party, should come to the Yaounde Convention.

Dr Che Sunday, Dear Readers,

You may be disturbed by the mess rocking the SDF. We are all disturbed, but compromises can not be made when they pull legality into mud. When we write an examination, the marker does not correct what we know, but what we write. If we write that 1 + 1= 5, the marker will give us zero, even if we, the candidates, have Phd in Mathematics. Similarly, if we have to judge what is happening in the SDF, today, we do not have to concentrate on what we know or think should be, but we have to concentrate on what is written in the constitution of the SDF. It may be possible that the experts who drafted the constitution of the SDF might have made some intentional or unintentional mistake. This however can not make us push the constitution aside when we have a crisis. If the experts who drafted the SDF constitution had unfortunately written in it that 1 +1 = 5, anyone one passing judgement based on this constitution must consider but the 1 + 1 = 5. To consider 1 + 1 = 2 in a constitution that clearly states that 1 + 1= 5, is illegal. And mine you, one of Cameroon's greatest Law expert, Mbah Nda, was one of the few brains behind the drafting of this constitution. This is an expert whose Doctoral Thesis was about associations like political party. If he should be opposing what THEY had written inside the SDF constitution, then he must have been drafting the SDF constitution with purely selfish reasons. And even if it is normal that one realises the errors he has done, one begins to wonder why a Law expert like Mbah Ndam should only be realizing now that there is a 1 + 1 = 5 in the SDF constitution. And even if he realizes this only today, it has to remain binding until it is legally amended.

It is not (y)our ideas that should determine what should be done now in the SDF. The only working document we have remains the CONSTITUTION of the SDF. And by this constitution we should ask ourselves which of the two camps has the right to convene a convention under the present circumstances and situation.

No one disputes the fact that the SDF is currently passing through a VERY serious and URGENT crisis. No one disputes the fact that the mandate of the present NEC has since expired and that it is by the SDF constitution and by law acting in illegality. No one also doubts the fact that SDF sections and militants have called on the advisory council to intervene to solve the crisis in the SDF.

Now Dr. Che, under these circumstances and situations, does the constitution grant the current NEC the powers to govern the SDF? Does the constitution grant the present illegal NEC the powers to call for an SDF covention? Does the SDF constitution grant the Ni John Fru Ndi NEC faction the authority to organize and control elections that will determine the fate of its illegal members? Does the current SDF constitution grant an illegal NEC the right to lay down rules for a National election? Some people like our assumed learned Prof. Nkwi claims that what the "thief Police" officer YOYO is calling for is just a proposed constitutional amendment that has to be decided upon, but he fails to ask himself in what capacity YOYO is proposing it. As a member of a NEC whose mandate has since expired? And to be decided upon by which body? The Ni John Fru Ndi's NEC whose mandate has since expired?

I think in the present crisis in the SDF, we should keep aside our own way of thinkingn or reasoning, which of course may have some good points. We should base all our facts on the only working document that the SDF has, and that document is its constitution. Until the SDF constitution is amended, of course by a legally constituted body, it remains the only binding document. The SDF constitution might be having some weaknesses like any other constitution, but that is what the SDF has now and today. This explains why the Yaounde court Judge had to give authority to the National Advisory Council. He based his reasoning on the 1 + 1= 2 or the 1+ 1= 5 that is written inside the SDF constitution. That was the only thing he could do. It is not the fault of the judge that a 1 + 1 = 1 or 1 + 1 =5 was written in the constitution of the SDF.

And when Ni John Fru Ndi and his group were going to court, they were fully aware that the SDF is a social and political organization. They went to court fully prepared to challenge Professor Ngwasiri and his NAC. To say that with the SDF as a social and political organization, Professor Ngwasiri is wrong, you are indirectly telling Ni John Fru Ndi and the no-small lawyer Mbah Ndam that they do not know the law or better still, that you know more than they do. Throughout the court hearing, Mbah Ndam and his group never challenged the fact that the hearing could not hold because SDF was a social or organization. It was only after victory was handed to NAC and Ni John Fru Ndi's authority suspended, that they started questioning Professor Ngwasiri's authority as Chairman of NAC. Ni John Fru Ndi and his gang of expetrienced lawyers are not contesting what is written in the SDF constitution, which the Judge merely applied, but their main argument NOW is that Professor Ngwasiri is not the chairman of NAC and so does not have the authority to take them to court. Mind you, they are not saying that NAC has not got the authority to take them to court. Their problem is Professor Ngwasiri.

There also, they are found wanting. They are completely wrong, because if Professor had tendered his resignation as they claim, then according to the SDF constitution, Professor Ngwasiri was tendering his resignation as chairman to an illegal NEC. By implication, any such resignation is null and void. At the apex of the crisis between Ahidjo and newly appointed Head of State and CPDM chairman - President Paul Biya, even if out of an inferiority complex Paul Biya was forced to tender his resignation to Ahidjo (who was no more president), then that resignation would have been null and void. To tender his resignation to someone who by nature had no authority to receive it, no matter how powerful the person is, would have no legal binding.If Ni John Fru Ndi had received the resignation of Professor Ngwasiri - which he did not - then he would have been doing so out of illegality. He would have asked Professor Ngwasiri to address his resignation to the right quarters. An employee can not be addressing his resignation leter to an ex-president, no matter how powerful that ex-president is.

I even have the feeling that, as an expert in Law, Professor Ngwasiri was fully aware that he was addressing his resignation to the wrong person; that he was merely making a mockery of the low faculty of reasoning of Ni John Fru Ndi. Besides, if Professor Ngwasiri had resigned as the Ni John Fru Ndi camp want us to believe today, why was he still playing the role of the chairman of NAC? Why was he still covening NAC meeting? Why should the Ni John Fru Ndi camp be telling us only now that he is no more the chairman of NAC. Why?

These are the facts that the Yaounde Judge used in declaring null and void all the decisions taken by Ni John Fru Ndi and his NEC since their mandate expired. (Un)fortunately, some SDF militants do not want to look at the legal and (SDF) constitutional reasoning behind the decision. The Judge merely declared null and void the decision taken by the Ngwasiri NAC JUST FOR THE SAKE OF PUBLIC ORDER. I mean, this was clearly spelt out!

Look my brothers, this is not the right moment for us to use our reasoning to say which camp is right or wrong. It is not even the moment for Christians to use the Bible or for Muslims to use the Quran to determine who is right or wrong. We have just the constitution of the SDF to base our reasoning on. After we must have successfully apply this constitution as it is today, to put things in the legal position the SDF constitution demands, we can then sit together to see how the SDF constitution can be adjusted to changing time and situations. Else anything we accept may be in illegality, even if compromises have to be made.

I am not a law expert but I think the above arguments can convince any skeptics.

You may now go back up page and again read Prof. Nkwi's latest tirade against Ngwasiri. The debate is on.

[Mbu.B]

OUR FORUM`S TREND (I)

Once again I beg to take exception debating about the issue(s) at hand. We have two categories of contributors on this forum, viz; those who seem to write from the heart and firmly believe in what they write; those who simply want to test their intellectual capacity(can I stage a confrontation of ideas and stand the heat?)They are basically animators of the forum, in the light of Ashwell Molaba,BenB and a host of others.
I will delve mostly into the first category.Here we have three different schools. The first school championed by Rexon, Ma Mary and others,swear blood for the restoration of Southern Cameroon statehood(if it ever existed).
The second,have a mixture of contradictory idiosyncracies focused on the SDF.They are anti-Ni John`s helm at SDF, spearheaded by Mukete and Vally of England. In this same mixture we have SDF die-hards like Samleyin, Fon Lawrence, Akoson and others.
The third school, sees bad in the present day Cameroon and hopes for a prosperous state should things turn around rightly.This school is headed by Dr Agbormbai and a host of others.
From genesis, we moved from a frank exchange of opinions,mostly concentrating on the topics,correcting grammar and to a wider extent condemning the present state of things in Cameroon and at same time proposing ideas(even though we were proposing it to emptiness).
Presently, whatever topic that comes up, even if it`s talking about Eton women learning to convert cassava to garri with the presence of Yaou Aissatou, the debate takes a u-turn. We definitely find ourselves talking about La Republique,SCNC,SDF etc.
The state of whatever Cameroon you choose must live and it should not be forcefully according to your vision. After all, it is a vision and between a vision and reality there`s a thick line.
I will be back for PART II
Cheers!

[BenB]

In otherwords Mbu.B, you admire those who carry spears and daggers, bow and arrows, even weapons of mass (social) destruction on this forum, not those with trowels, spirit levels, current testers, screw-drivers, spanners etc. Inotherwords, you have little or no regard for builders.

You felt carressed when an open war of attrition raged on this forum between two extremes. You love bloodshed. You hate to see mediators step in and bring down tension for brothers and sisters to reason together for the general good of their fatherland/motherland.

Mbu.B, you've honestly betrayed yourself as the type in childhood who stood by and applauded when friends and siblings fought instead of stepping in to separate them and bring them to dialogue.

And if you must know, it's easier to throw bullets around than to sort out the forgotten position of the corner stone. When a huge, landmark building like the SDF is shaky, you need to be daft not to start looking around for the source of the trouble.And if that probblem lies with the foundation what but the cornerstone do you look out for to fix or replace, whichever way you can?

My friend, it takes a lot of reflection to shoulder the task of bringing warring parties to reason together. Perhaps that's why some things we say here sound to you as mere intellectual show-show. It's just hard thinking for how best to get us out of the doldrums.

It takes a combination of the carrot and the stick, used proportionately, in measures commensurate to each party to bring them to reason. That's what some of us are doing here. We whip when we must, we pamper when we should, we reflect when we can. When we whip, our detractors say we hate Ni John. When we throw the carrot, they say we're inconsistent. When we start reflecting they say we're rambling. This is not the first time they're calling on me to choose a side. Mind your sides, friends. I love being where I am - nowhere. And you may well not admire me.

No problem. We are charting a path like a voyager reading a map, using a compass to understand a difficult, complicated terrain. If that bores you, you only have to scroll up or down and skip what you don't want to read. Is that hard to do? Even sef, I di use na ya finger for type am, eh?

Or better still you may log out. In fact, the next time you log in, first scroll to the bottom of each posting, make sure it's not signed BenB/BenF before reading it. If it's from one of your original bloggers, those who kept the forum sweet with fire-for-fire in YOUR GOOD OLD DAYS on this forum, read it over and over again and even sleep on your computer. Sleep in the cybercafé.

Maybe that way, you may deceive yourself that those opinions are the only ones expressed on this forum. But bet, someone else, at least someONE else would read the "show-show" we write and, we pray, they shall be edified and, God willing, reason shall prevail.

But another solution could be maybe, you of your OLD SCHOOL on this forum could well quit and start a new blog where you'll enjoy your crossfire and collective suicide.

Hope you won't read this, but if you do, hope it will be your last. See you elsewhere. Well, you said you'll be back with Part II.

Waiting.

BenF

[BenB]

Better still, Mbu.B, you could launch an online referendum requesting me to leave YOUR forum alone. I'll respect the verdict and quit.

Start now. Hope you don't read this because it's signed BenF/BenB.

[samleyin]

JTS,

The greatest problem is when the fault cannot be identified. This is what is troubling you. I am not speaking your language and you label me `primitive.` Bush man. Where is your own contribution ass hole. What way foward are you proposing for your caravan. Just glide into your shell unnoticed and safe your breadth. That`s all you can do.

[Watesih]

Samleyin,
I fully stand behind you
wishing Prof.Ngwasiri should be up and doing.No one will ever wish the irreparable to happen to the Prof.He has been one of those whose thoughts brought the SDF into existence.Even if he has his own course,it would be better for him to be on his legs,so that he can continue to learn about life`s situations.Everybody chewing his gums about the SDf ,wants to see it intact.
If Prof.Ngwasiri has choosen a different course ,then it will be everyone`s pleasure to see him prove his point.
The militants of the SDf know who Fru Ndi is ,and would want Muna ,Ngwasiri ,
Asonganyi,to pass through the Guillotine,turn in turn.We want all of them to be witnesses to the flogging the Political joggernaut of modern Cameroon has reserved for his detractors.Jua got his own,
and should be contemplating suicide now(something we don`t wish).We wish Prof. Ngwasiri a quick recovery ,because we want
those political chameleons in Cameroon to learn a lesson from the SDF,and know for once and for all that the SDF is not and will never be the UPC,as we have been saying everyday.

Teribobs
I have not seen any questions worth the salt that BenF has posed.Do you really expect BenF to ask any good question? BenF has disgraced Cameroonians who count on us to liberate them,by prescribing terrorism to solve political problems.How can a young man in 2006 be calling on a Disciplined political leader like Fru Ndi ,who has taken 16 years to keep the SDF together,to put his personality and the SDF at stake ,by going over to Yaounde to storm Ngwasiri`s convention.This is the political blunder of the century.BenF ought to hide,than pretending to be asking questions,because people now consider him a terrorist.Secondly,Teribobs,your man BenF is a divisive fellow and should not pretend to be craving for reconciliation.He doesn`t have tolerance enough to accept other Cameroonians and starts asking the question,
" Wusai this one too Komot".This is going across the threshold of intolerance.We have been brainstorming here about the issues in our country for a long time,but no one has ever tried to put the existence of another cameroonian to question.
Teribobs,the last thing i will tell you and your master BenF is that in life never negotiate with terrorists.I hope you know that this has been the message i have been passing across clearly,that the SDF and Fru Ndi will never negotiate with terrorists.We always allow the terrorists to take their logic to the end.Teribobs,i want you to shout it into BenF ears,because he doesn`t want to listen,that someone who hasn`t got a semblance of compassion in him is not a partner for peace.

ADVENTURERS SHOULD LEARN FROM NGWASIRI'S FAILURES

Younde Appeal Court Adjourns Appeal on High Court Rulling that stayed decision suspending NEC and NAC. Hearing resumes on friday May 26th, same day the Bamenda convention of the SDF is due to hold. Meanwhile, the High court resumes hearing on the matter that was appealed against on the 22 may.
This decision is catastrophic to Ngwasiri who is bed ridden and has abandoned his planned convention in Yaounde for same date after crashing due to shock brought to bear on him by the defection of all he thought were working with him. Disclaimers in local newspapers have isolated the bedridden Ngwasiri.
Prof Kale is running for post of 2nd national Chair.
West is running for SG
Littoral for 1st vice chair and treasurer.
East for several portfolios.
North, Adamawa, far North , Center, South etc are all organising their provincial primaries in view of the Bamenda convention come next week.
All press accreditations have been issued and invtations to diplomatic and other parties distributed. Bamenda is warming up for the convention of rebirth.
All the noisemakers in this forum should come and assist ngwasiri whom they deceived to dare the peoples party. he needs evacuation abroad but Muna who deceived him has fled abandoning him.
All roads lead to Bamenda on the 26thof May.
This is a big lesson to all potential deviants. The SDF growing stronger by the hours.

[mukete]

I have defeated them! Readers are witnesses. Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Aaron Nyangkwe, Rexon Washow alias Tayong, Watesih, Akoson, Rennee Murena, had informed this forum that they will never react to my contributions again because they realized that the more they reacted and intimidated me, the more facts I presented. Defeated, they are now writing in exile and using my name. They are now demonstrating that the name "mukete" is hot cake in this forum and everywhere, and that people are getting up even in the middle of their sleep to see if Mukete has written. The name mukete is exposing them! They are now using the hot cake name "Mukete" to make readers read what they write. This is also because they have realized no one is interested to read anything written by them.

Interesting for readers. Following my reference to the fact that my name never appears as " MUKETE" but as "mukete", Rexon and his group have now changed from the "MUKETE" they used to "mukete". This is meanness. The fact that they are using my name clearly shows that they are defeated.

Since I am convinced Readers would know whenever I write, I find it needless wasting my time trying to make reference to those I have defeated. These are people who had been minimizing my influence and ability. Just see the method they are now using to FIGHT me.

To those using my name, with the intention of making me drop my pen, I want to refer them to some of the descriptions Ngwasiri Christopher made of me, THE ORIGINAL MUKETE on May 10, 2006 under the article “Appeal Court Panel Divided Over Fon Doh’s Bail”:

Anyone who doubts that Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Aaron Nyangkwe, Rexon Washow alias Tayong, Watesih, Akoson are those using the name "mukete" should write to mukete_l@yahoo.com. This is the e-mail that has been accompanying my contributions since last year, and I am the one with the only password to access it.

____________________________________________

TRIBUTE TO MUKETE
I would like to say that I am particularly impressed with the tenacious grip and unintimidated contribution of Mukete on this forum. He has proved that a man with a mission will not be intimidated by people brandishing all sorts of titles, qualifications and journalistic jinks and jingoism. He is a real fighter. A Spartan that dies but never surrenders. A man that can stand pressure. A man that will flick away an elephant as if it was a fly. A man who concentrates on his job regadless of the gimmickries of the other employees.
I would like to put more grease to the elbow of his critics who would love to see him strangled because of the truth as the more they pressurise him, the stronger he becomes and the more revelations we get. Pressure is his inspiration and he can handle it. Nobody on this forum has been as informative as him. I have a feeling that if you cut his arms, he will write with his toes. There is no stopping him. Till death will he part with writing. He has proved that when the going gets tough, the tough get going. He has taken the heavyweight punches and has withstood them. Anyone who is dreaming of flooring him is just a daydreamer. He will not live to see his towel thrown in the ring. It will only happen over his dead body.
Mukete's articles might be copious but not void of sense and information. Unlike other writers who say that they will be back and come back empty, Mukete says that he will be back and comes back with a bombshell or spitting fire. Unlike some writers who brandish breath-taking headlines and waffle about, he always has a missile to throw. This guy sometimes makes me feel that he is hiding under Fru Ndi and Biya's bed to get his information. He has Ntarinkon and Etoudi in his palms.

These blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi, with REXON Washo alias Tayong, know that they are figfhting a lost battle. Let them face my facts with their names readers know.

I will be giving the reasons why Ni John Fru Ndi was picked to become the chairman of the SDF. This remains a secret no one wants to tell the world.

Man pass man!

Stay tuned.

[Watesih]

Readers,
I Watesih,Akoson,Fon Lawrence,Kgnanjo,Enoh,Nyankwe,Klemenceau,Atangha,Sammy,Jokwi,Boh,Samleyin,Tita mofor,
Washow and all those who speak only the truth are not going to rejoice for anybody`s miisfortune.The problems of cameroon are bigger than the SDf,but they are not certainly going to be above the SDF.
We are going to continue telling the truth and unearthing all disciples of doom in our country.
As days go by we shouldn`t be surprised to see all sorts of volte face.
Even Saddam Hussein will tell the world that George Bush used to be his benchmate and that they used to go cricket-digging together in Babylon.We shouldn`t in any given instance be carried away by these sugar coated words.A devil is a devil,and it will be too simplistic for us to play hide and seek with the minds of Cameroonians.Anything that will yield fruits in Bamenda will only come as a result of Fru Ndi`s steadfastness and the clairvoyance of his close collaborators,so
we should be aware of any sensational writeups about Fru Ndi and the SDf,especially from people who have not only doubted Fru Ndi all this while,but did everything to rip him apart.
The Cameroonian people have also learnt to sanction witchhunters.Whether they steathily return to the fold under the cover of darkness,the convention is not going to shield them when the time of reckoning will come,because the life of the SDF does not end with a convention.
Let all of us who have been yearning to see the SDf stronger start coming up with proposals as from Monday 15th May.Most
delegates will not be less thankful to use our ideas to brainstorm during the convention.We had already proposed many ideas here several months ago,we can go back to them,during this crucial week.
Lastly,let nobody feel left behind because he or she had been deputising for one candidate or the other.There`s only one SDf,and it is the party of the people.The turn events are taking shows us that God and our ancestors are resolutely behind this baby that was born only 16 years ago.

[mukete]

Dear Readers,

I am now realizing that I was merely wasting my precious time arguing with Klamenceau, Fon Lawrence, Watesih, Akoson, Rexon Washow alias Tayong, Aaaron Nyangkwe (PhD in Comparative Journalist), Renne Murena. I never expected them to be so mean in the way they want to hijack this important forum. Their disrespect for readers of this respected forum is already attaining alarming proportions.

I have clicked on the name "mukete" they have used on may 13, 2006 at 06. 29 PM (see above) but to my greatest disappointment, this is the address they attached to their own version of mukete:

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa@yahoo.com

Try to see for yourself.

How can these blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi be so insulting as to be taking the many readers of this forum for fools? Is this how Aaron Nyangkwe distort facts as a journalist? If a Journalist can be involved in such nasty and childish activities, then we have to be very careful.

I have stated that they were intimidating me and calling me all sorts of names because they were not happy that I was saying the bitter truth. They have realized that calling my facts frictions would not help. These are people who do not still believe that Cameroonians can not continue to remain the fools they thought we are. These are people who still have to recover from the shock of actually seeing a tiny and careless Mukete criticizing the mighty Ni John Fru Ndi.

They have not seen anything yet. I think they need ten million strategies in order to be able to poison the minds of readers against me. That will be a long time to have their misfit at the head of the SDF. My field of speciality is to release Cameroonians from the hostage that Ni John Fru Ndi has taken them. I also have to liberate their consciences from the darkness that Ni John FRu Ndi has plunged them into. To do this, I have to remove the devil out of this butcher of democracy.

The fact that even the Founding Fathers do not want to tell the public why they selected Ni John Fru Ndi as Leader of the SDF, goes to confirm the vow they took. I will tell this forum the road and logic that made Ni John Fru Ndi the chairman of the SDF. The conception most Cameroonians have is completely wrong.

Stay tuned.

[Tayong(Copenhagen)]

Mukete
Hahaha.I think I see so much childishness in you than frankness. Are u looking for cheap popularity or sending across a message? How can u claim I,Tayong am the one using a mukete around? Those are dirty games for idle people like you.
I have serious pressing issues on my table than do that Mr man. All what you are doing is childish gymnastics for the gallery.Internet maneuvring and activism.

Gentleman why cant u spend this time on some valuable issues?

[Klemenceau]

Anyone Who Has Patience And Wants to Know What Mukete Has been Doing Here should Read Through.

Mukete

Every one in this forum can stop to react to your write ups but I Klemenceau will never stop attacking you. You must be confused because I have never said here that I will stop responding to your write ups.
Mukete if you don't know, I want to tell you that I feel bad when I see people using the name mukete to write in this forum. Those doing this make you feel you are winning. And that is why you are quick to shout at the top of your voice that

"I have defeated them!"

Mukete winners don't praise themselves. A winner is never hidden. You should not be so childish to this extent. What have you done that you feel you have won?
Mukete, I vowed in this forum that I will always attack you until you stop your antics and propaganda against Fru Ndi. I will continue to do so until the present SDF crisis is over. This will be after the Bamenda Convention comes May 26th.
Mukete quoting Ngwasiri Christopher does not change you from the fiction writer you are. No level headed person in this forum expected anything else from Christopher. He was just praising you (Mukete) his brother's advocate. It was but normal for him (Christopher) to encourage you in your mission to paint Fru Ndi black and uplift his brother (Prof Ngwasiri).

You always claim to be bringing light in this forum. But I want to tell you again as I have done before that you bring but darkness here. As a matter of fact you (Mukete) are an angel of darkness in this forum. Your framed up stories in this forum can land those who can't or don't want to see them as fiction into trouble. The way you present your story will and has always unfortunately led many in this forum to believe what you say.
Those who believe the fiction you have been posting in this forum are blinder than some of us "blind" supporters of Fru Ndi. The blindness we have is helpful because we can still distinguish between fiction and true stories. We are better because despite our blindness, we are still capable of seeing the good and bad sides of our "demi god" Fru Ndi. Is it not strange that we the "blind" supporters of Fru Ndi are so objective? We openly point out our friends mistakes and admit our shortcomings. How many times have some of those disciples of yours or of Ngwasiri found any wrong in what you do?

Mukete, I want to show this forum that you have been bringing darkness in this forum.

You started with your rubbish about bush fallers. You took your time to insult Cameroonians abroad. You were so bold to say Cameroonians abroad were washing corpse, cleaning roads and dry cleaning hotels. At a certain point you took it personal with Dr. A.A.A. Agbormbai. Is this the light you claim to be bringing in this forum?

Not long after making Cameroonians and the world to know that you were mentally not stable, you attacked the Bayangis and the Bakossi. At first I thought you had had old scores to settle with Dr. A.A.A. Agbormbai but I got confused when you extended your madness to these tribes. I think only those who are really blind or who read English and don't understand will consider these as light that you are bringing here.

Given the level of your frustration, and coupled with jealousy and your hatred for Fru Ndi, you decided to make even doubting Thomas’s to see the madness in you, though some saw and pretended not to see because you are of the same mission.
You continue you evil crusade by accusing Fru Ndi for killing his wife, killing Makoge and eating with the CPDM at night. But when we asked you in this forum to proof your allegations, you ignored the questions and continue with your fictions. Is this the light you are bringing in this forum? Don't you know you might help to put some readers into trouble here? Imagine a reader who reads what you said and publicly tells Fru Ndi that he is a killer. What do you think will happen to such a person? Will that person not face justice for defamation? Will you (Mukete) be there to defend such a person and bring proofs which you don’t have?

Your campaign against Fru Ndi continued and you almost lost some of your disciples when you said Fru Ndi used his magically powers to make some of us to support him. What really opened the eyes of some of those who blindly support you was when you said Fru Ndi forced the militants in Fundong to take oaths and drink blood of unknown animals. This made some disciples of yours to doubt you their master. This to you is the light you have been bringing in this forum?

Many have asked you to talk on the murder of Esseme in Kumba. You have ignored this and all you are capable of writing is to castigate Fru Ndi in the name of bringing light. You are a shameless idiot. It is high time you knew that Fru Ndi is a rock and you better go and tell those who paid you to soil his image that he is too strong. He is too clean that you can't make him dirty.

In fact Mukete, I don't want to take the readers’ time here because of you. You are a visionary chasing your own shadow.

Shalom
Klemenceau.

[Klemenceau]

Mukete

You are the one taking readers in this forum for fools. Can you count the number of times you have promised to expose Fru Ndi in this forum? Have you told this forum all what happened during the Fundong primaries? How militants were forced to take oaths and drink blood? Have you told this forum how Fru Ndi killed Makoge or his (Fru Ndi) wife? Have you told this forum how Fru Ndi signed an agreement with the CPDM and France?
You now want to tell us the road and logic on how Fru Ndi was made the chairman.
Mukete "He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool.

Shalom
Klemenceau.

[Watesih]

Klemenceau,
Shame is driving Mukete insane.
He`s completely torn apart by the turn of events.You know at times he always says that Fru Ndi has spoilt their party the SDf,but above he says whether there`s a Bamenda or Yaounde convention,he doesn`t care the damn.Mukete ,how can you not care about your party Fru Ndi has been spoiling?
klemenceau,Mukete has really been taking readers for fools.He has blasted Prof. Ngwasiri and has cut and pasted an article Ngwasiri Clement wrote three weeks ago.He is doing this to forestall any criticisms from christopher Ngwasiri who had believed they were on the same wave length on their bid to run down Fru Ndi.I want to inform Mukete that i only read all the writeups once and even if your repost them after 10 years ,my eyes will know that they had read them before.So Christopher Ngwasiri`s article above was not written today May 13th ,but three weeks ago.Let the other blindman called Momo come out and see how Mukete has smeared himself with feaces.
When he says he doesn`t hate Fru Ndi
,but specialises meddling in his private life,it is the same thing he does,pretending
to be fighting along Christophe Ngwasiri, but turning around to stab him in the back.
If he really wants to know who writes under his name ,he should openly write to the management of the Post to send us the e-mail under this article,rather coming abck after few minutes and telling us of aaaaaaaa
@.Mukete is aware that he has been ignored by nearly everyone,so he is seeking for notice,and also wants to distort public opinion about the victories the SDf is scoring.Nobody should lend an ear of credence to his ramblings.Lets look forward to next week ,to start proposing ideas towards our convention.If Christopher Ngwasiri were an upright person,he would come out against Mukete for trying to use his elder brother and him as his toilet tissue.

OUR FORUM`S TREND (II)

Once again,I plead to take exception from the issue(s) at hand.
We have built debating camps, thus whatever comes up, contributors get into the normal freestyle and especially making sure they do not jump out of their camp.You probably bank points for yourself or your camp.As Mukete inevitably cares to style himself a phenomenon, others like Akoson feel this should not happen because they write better.We are pretentious about following the topics whereas the real stuff is not getting superceded.
At one point in time, a debator would get spanks from every direction once they tried to surface something like any NW/SW hate and that was real healthy.
Then timidly surfaced talk about breaking from La Republique.It was expected talking about secession will get same spanks.It turned to be serious as it is something that plays heavy on any Anglophone.Here we saw a complete juxtaposition of counteracting ideologies.Definitely though,we see the fervent propounders of secession taking an upper hand on this forum.However the success of the ardents to secession here,can hardly be matched with the field work.
The various secessionist movements have turned into characteristic disarray and power wrangling. It leaves more the impression of frailty and incapacity to channel the plight of the Anglophones.
This seem to connect with the present state of things at the SDF. Created 16 years ago, it had all its vibrancy.From whatever angle or camp you may judge, the SDF is in demise.Not even the pulling down of Ngwasiri`s camp means the future is bright for this party.
The Yaounde government seemed to have discovered the magic potion to all groups threatening to quicken its demise.That is; Buy over some few backbones of the vibrant movements and create another parallel organ, that is pro-government but at same time pretending to show more orthodoxy.How it marvellously worked with the UPC,SCNC and maybe soon with the SDF.
A mind reader will say, the most devisive debate for the anglophone here would not even be about the SDF but about standing behind a secessionist movement. It is so easily said than done.
Just like when the Buea volcano was pouring in the UB, thousands of voices surged to cause devastation, but it all stayed on the internet.
If we consider you are fighting for something that could take away your life that you like so much, you have to think hard. When you again consider, in an outbreak of civil warfare your entire family can be brushed in a minute,you get even afraid to think about it.If you were to ask Pa Ayamba to bargain loosing his family for the cause to succeed, he would probably not agree with it.How many of us noise makers can even go to a front?
I insist on this last take, because it seems the way forward for our visionaries.
Thinking a judgment from whatsoever court will pronounce separation from La Republique is utopism.
However between two extreme points there is a midway and that is compromise. Shifting from an original or extremist stand points to something agreable. Have you thought of return to federalism?(Not federalism on paper and unitary state in reality). Have you thought about regionalism that gives powers to local entities to manage their resources and get the most of their riches.I wonder how much the SDF talks about this, just like I wonder if they have a clear agenda apart from saying Biya`s government is corrupt.These two can be achieved without civil strife. People are not hungry for a separate state, they are hungry for better living standards and transparency.

[BenB]

In the midst of the deadlock in Cameroon, during the Ghost Towns when this country reached the breaking point of extremeism, when the opposition led by the SDF said, "No National Conference, No Nothing" a Cameroonian of goodwill had a proposal to break the dealock.

A very enlightened Cameroonian, famed for academic writing and teaching up from the 1970s, and with a record as a legal luminary of no common standing across universities in the US, came home with a proposal that was shoved aside.

Knowledgeable but soft-spoken Professor Ndiva Kofelle Kalle took a break from his cool teaching career in universities in the US and elsewhere.

He came home with a proposal for the love of fatherland, for the sake of pulling together warring factions who had each found comfort in their political war trenches, either desperately pushed to the wall (Biya) or glorifying in the popular response to their obstinance and intransigence (Ni John).

Kalle proposed that we set aside calls for a National Conference and settle for a compromise Constitutional Conference. We wanted a National Conference to sort out those who had ruined Cameroon and punish them. The Biya regime was scared to death. Biya said in Parliament, "La Conférence Nationale est sans objet". To Biya's supporters, that is those who needed protection, Biya was right and they'd stake their necks for him to defend that position.

Ni John and the rest of the opposition said, "No National Conference, No Nothing". We knew they were right. People must pay for what they plunder. They must pay for their sins. We must punish them. We were right. Ni John and his friends were right. We stood behind them, ready to stake our necks to make that happen. We paid the price in varied ways. Some of our friends were killed. Yet we kept on. Victory was our goal.

But thoughtful Kalle knew there needed to be progress. The political terrain is a world of fallible men, not one of perfect angels. He knew from his education and exposure that in the face of extremism, compromise is the key, the golden mean. In Kalle's thinking the Constitutional Conference could even be a way round to the National Conference.

We didn't see his point. We forgot that politics is not all arm-twisting. It requires some clever tactics too. With the National Conference, we'd achieve electoral reforms that would fix a level playing field for all parties and candidates and there would be institutional reforms that would separate powers so that the President won't manipulate Parliament and the Courts anymore.

With those changes we'd easily accede to power because there was no question we were popular and could win HANDS DOWN in a free and fair election. Thereafter, we'd organise OUR National Conference and there, punish the "sinners".

Diplomatic services in Yaounde had used their secret intelligence gathering methods to understand that though Biya also feared the reforms, he was more disposed to accept the Constitutional Conference if that would save him from a National Conference.

So we could have had it, but due to our characteristic intransigence that continues to this day, we lost that chance. He was scorned by both sides. We called Kalle names. The Biya regime called him names. They said Kalle was a trap sent to subtly lure them to their doom. We said Kalle had been imported by Biya and France to distract the opposition from their "noble goal" to have a National Conference that would cleanse Cameroon.

Now we can see just how cleansed of evil people Cameroon would have been had we taken over then, since we were the angels. It was as if the whole purpose of politics was to hold a National Conference. We prefered to glorify in stagnation, instead of progressing through tactical compromise.

Afterall we were being hailed as the toughest of the tough. We were punching the air and screaming "Pawa to de pipo" though it has turned out we really meant, On the people's blood and climbing on standing on their backs, we negotiate our personal enrichment.

The gentleman Kalle, wasn't discouraged. He folded his golden file and resorted to push his ideas from WITHIN. He joined the SDF, but find out how much of his good ideas have been accepted. You know just how much persecution Kalle has suffered from people in the SDF who fear his ideas are too brilliant to be allowed to thrive in the SDF.

And here we are today running on the spot and glorifying in our "popularity". Going round and round in the wilderness like Biblical Israelites under God's curse, just because we refused to open our eyes to Kalle's roadmap.

Today someone here is using Kalle's name to show that their Bamenda Convention is pulling support, so no need for reconciliation. A drowning man would cling even to a snake.

Like Kalle, that's how some of us come to town with SELFLESS ideas to bridge two warring parties on this forum. Like Kalle, we are instead scorned by extremists on both sides who need the bridge most. They want us to say where we belong. We won't be discouraged unless an online referendum plebiscites us to leave YOUR forum alone.

Start voting now.

I greet you Mbu.B,

Reading your Part II now, I see you have a point and you've tried as best you can to make that point. It's a well thought out reflection. I'll read it again, and over and over again, and draw what I can from your observations. You're a good observer. And you've made good remarks here.

I hope we all are drawing from the good refelctions of Mbu.B here and not only digging more trenches to fortify our battle lines. Thank you Mbu.B.

[Fon Lawrence]

Mbu B,
It is true that no court on earth will ever declare the independence of Southern Cameroons.If somebody was dreaming about that,then that is a dream that will always remain a dream.
No southern Cameroonian will not greet the independence of Southern Cameroons with joy if it was to happen.My humble advice to those at the forefront of the course is that they should rethink their strategy and should not continue to dream that one day one court somewhere will declare southern Cameroons an independent state.
The greatest obstacle to this course is coming from Southern Cameroonians who are in Biya Government.If we look around the world today to identify countries that have just obtained independence;one thing was unique about them which Southern Cameroons lacks.We are divided on this issue of the struggle for independence.
Mbu B, the SDF has made it position very clear when it comes to the issue of Southern Cameroons and I am confident that if the SDF was to take over power,things will change for the better concerning Southern Cameroons issue.

Ben B,you react before thinking;Mbu B´s platitude to me was in no way an attack on your person and therefore you faulted in your reaction.

[Akoson]

Hello Mbu B.,

I guess you're missing a point! There's no SCNC that strives for secession. That word's NOT in our dictionary. Southern Cameroons is a country on its own still clamouring for independence. We're the only African country that hasn't yet gained its independence. We're still under illegal occupation by France through the disguised dictatorial regime of Biya. If you insist to call that ugly word I no longer wanna mention, note that its Biya who seceeded in 1984 when he changed the name from United Republic Of Cameroon to La Republique. Ask him why???

You seem to hate war! We may say that The Force of Argument is a political weapon, and the Argument of Force or Right to Self-Defense is a military weapon. Every people have a right to avail itself of the two. If you preach the Force of Argument without also preparing for Self-defense, you are looking only at one side of the coin. The adage goes that “if you want peace, prepare for war”. The people of Southern Cameroons seem to be doing themselves the disfavor of believing that there is a coin that has only one side when they say “The Force of Argument and Not the Argument of Force”. The one-sided preaching of the Force of Argument is paralyzing even our own soldiers. By soldiers I mean those who by their own natural disposition, act like the white blood cells in the human body. Obviously, the people of Southern Cameroons must have their own soldiers, for nature never creates an organism without its own mechanism of self-defense. This is an additional proof that it is no sin to wage war in self-defense.

The international community takes no people seriously who see the Force of Argument as the only means open to them. The perpetual question the international community asks itself is: how serious are a people to be also taken seriously? Anything short of the exercise of the right to self-defense seems to the international community to be short of the required degree of seriousness! The exercise of the right to self-defense is the only mechanism by which the international community determines the seriousness of any people who are laying a complaint about the violation of their own space of existence by another people. Let the people of Southern Cameroons examine all the records of history; they will find that it is so. How do we expect people who got their sovereign independence by fighting for it to pity us, when they see that we are not willing to risk our lives for our own? No one of course will tell you to take up arms for your rights, because he would appear in the eyes of the world to be encouraging violence. But does their silence and indifference, and even conspiracy, towards our struggle, which is a model of peaceful attempts to resolve conflicts, not speak loud enough to us that the only language they understand is that of Force?

We have told our people that LRC would exterminate us if we rise against it! That is a lie, of course! The colonial regime has only been emboldened to hear such doctrine from some of our leaders, for the doctrine not only gives it the monopoly of violence against the true owners, it also destroys our fighting spirit and effectively prevents our case from being placed on the agenda of the international community! However mighty a criminal may be, the only thing that encourages him is the darkness in which he operates. As long as our case is not yet on the conflict map of the world, it is still relatively in darkness! Which reports on conflicts mention our case? Which world leader has raised the issue?

If you die in silence, the international community is only too happy that your voice was never heard, for that is one less problem for it! Strange it is, but these are the sad facts. Is it time to open the debate about the Right to Self-defense as the other arm to the internationally recognized and legal means for the oppressed people of the Southern Cameroons to free themselves? We must not continue to do the psychological damage to our people by saying that the Force of Argument is our only means and not the Argument of Force also! The Argument of Force is fully legal, international and within our means! The taking up arms against aggressors is neither ungodly nor a sin. By providing every creature with a defense mechanism, Nature tells us that self-defense is no sin! The international community cannot escort us to the Limbo of the Force of Argument and forget us there! In fact, we are the ones who misled ourselves by throwing away one recognized avenue of freedom. We must trace our way back! The rest of Africa (except Southern Cameroons) is relatively free of colonialism today because the people rose against the “infinitely” more armed and superior Whiteman!

In the meanwhile, the politicians must exhaust all the peaceful means available while putting before the world its responsibility in turning our attachment to the peaceful resolution of conflicts into a liability. The international community would never be able to free itself from the total responsibility for the violence that would erupt in the Southern Cameroons case, because we have followed every prescription for peace and the same international community has ignored us precisely on that account! Let any country, organization or world leader who would condemn us, show the world in what way he supported the peaceful struggle of the Southern Cameroons or stood up against the crimes of La Republique du Cameroun! So we have their full permission to resort to the Argument of Force!

Aladine, what military options do you propose? We need experts for this assignment.

Mbu B., please think excessively hard!!!

Twisted-thinking forehead, Son Of Ako, LSE.

Watesih and Samleyin,
Did you skip reading BenB's analysis of Professor Nkwi's assertion and the references he made to the SDF constitution? Is his objectivity backed by facts giving you nightmares?

BenB you are a heavyweight. Kudos!!!

[BenB]

Is anyone seeing the wind?

This forum is beginning to look like a forum of people with ideas, not people with fire in their mouths. At this rate, it won't be long before some good roadmap is defined for the protagonists in the SDF/SCNC struggle to decide if they want to take their people to the Promised Land or contend with being worhsipped.

Who can be more happy than me at this positve transformation on this forum which was hitherto a bloody battle field?

[BenB]

Some good proposals from Azese .N.Martin:

Hi BenB. You are very inspired and I have always loved your comments.I don't think I agree with your proposals or Oppinion for Fru Ndi on the convention.I know your oppinion counts and even counts much.

- Postponing the Bamenda convention will be very downgrading for FRU NDI. To me, it will mean a weakness in his part. Also , going to yaounde to stop the Yaounde convention will be too arrogant for pa FRU , because he would be using force and this may not be legally or politically seen for we don't know the jurisdiction of his power.

- Also , forgetting about the Bamenda convention and going attending the yaounde convention sounds better but still posses a problem. on one hand,forgetting the Bamenda convention that was scheduled by him FRU NDIusing the powers that were conferred on him as CHAIRMAN is underminding and thus letting go his powers. Also attending the Yaounde convention that was not organised by the CHAIRMAN and was said to be a REBELLION and against the SDF convention will be smarching his own powers and his own words.
THIS IS MY PROPOSAL which is an oppinion and may not count though: He ( CHAIRMAN) should ;

1-LEGALLY Fire ALL the ORGANISERS of this so call Yaounde convention from SDF;
2- Legally follow them and prevent them from USING the name SDF as their party;
3- Make sure he prepares the Bamenda rendez-vous well and with his usual outspokeness convince the population and millitants to follow the true SDF;.

I DON'T MEAN TO MAKE IT A DEBATE BETWEEN YOU AND I. ALL thesame your advice may be taken , and mine is a consequence of your oppinion or a prolongation.
COURAGE TO ALL CAMEROONIANS AND NON-CAMEROONIANS WHO SACRIFICE THEIR TIME ENERGY AND MONEY (internet) TO CONTRIBUTE AND HELP BUILD OUR BELOVED COUNTRY CAMEROON.FOR ALL OPPINIONS COUNT EVEN IF SEEN BAD BY OTHERS.

[rexon]

Mbu B.,

you should not speak what you dont know. describing SCNC activist as secessionist is an expressions of absolute ignorance.

Read the constitution of la republique francaise du cameroun and define your position before you write in this forum. You cannot hide the truth. We are not Cameroonians and la republique francaise du cameroun knows that. So you are a biafran in that failed republic.

[Fon Lawrence]

Watesih,
I am in support of the idea that we should brainstorm and come out with proposals for the convention.In this light we should have a secretary who will collect the points that will be sent to his e-mail.He summarises them and sends to us at our emails.Then we make comments and a final draft is produced which we can send officially for the convention.Only the final copy that will be read at the convention should be published on this forum.In other words I am proposing that the brainstorming should not be on this forum.I have many reasons for that.
We can style our contributions to the convention as coming from the propaganda group of the SDF.This is just a proposal

[BenB]

13 May: Doomsday-13

We’re less than 2 weeks to the Convention(s) or the Yaounde court verdict. Someone here says the court verdict has been postponed from 22 May to 26 May. We believe him/her until any further information proves the contrary.

If two conventions take place (I’m on it again), this would be the first "in-house" split in the SDF. This would be the first time insiders hold a rival SDF Convention.

Souleymane's Yaounde Convention was easily tagged a French/Biya regime attempt to steal the SDF because the main protagonists (Souleymane and Takoundjou) were not from among us, if you understand. Cameroon’s tribal politics and the Anglophone movement that runs deep in the SDF, make us think (even if we don’t say) We and They.

The SDF is OUR thing. When one of THEM dissents, we quickly say THEY want to take OUR thing. (Dem wan take we tin.)

So, Northerner Souleymane and Bamileke Takoundjou were easily tagged as being French and Biya agents come to steal OUR sdf. Likewise Kandoum Basile.

Even sef, Kandoum like Siga Asanga who each created a breakaway party, didn’t create another SDF. Kandoum created the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and Asanga created the Social Democratic Forum (SDFo). They left the SDF. And their dissent came too early in the day to have cut down the middle of the SDF.

If two conventions hold, we’ll for the first time have two SDFs, each with an SDF Chairman, each with a NEC, each with a NAC, each with militants (we'll need a census to determine who has how many), each claiming legality and legitimacy.

One of them may be right, they other may be wrong or both may be right or both may be wrong. But there’ll be two SDFs. Let’s take note.

Doomsday-13.

Tayong,

Someone, maybe Mbu.B (or is he too lukewarm about SDF?) or Samleyin who's in Bamenda or Dr Agbormbai, may give us an an email where we may all contribute our goodwill proposals on how to have only one convention following the procedure you've proposed.

We may call it "Views from online Think-tank". Let's put heads together. The countdown is on.

[mukete]

Watesih,

Never, I mean never, will I be against anyone who stands to challenge Ni John Fru Ndi. You have finally come out with the reason why you people have been using my name to crucify Professor Ngwasiri. If by doing this you people want to poison the mind of Christopher Ngwasiri against me, then you people are making a very Big mistake. Besides, I do not need the support of Christopher Ngwasiri to defend my worries about the poor Leadership skills of Ni John Fru Ndi.

You people should be ashamed, if you think that the strrategies you are using will make people turn against me. Unfortunately, you people have been trying this with people who are not fools. You people tried in vain to force Dr. Agbormbai not to see anything relevant in my write ups. You intimidated Dr. Agbormabi, Momo, Vally and many others for seeing any light in what I bring. When Christopher Ngwasiri came up with his description of Mukete, you people now invented your own version of MUKETE to write against Professor Ngwasiri. This does not only show how mean you people are, but it goes to confirm the belief that you people live by sentiments. How can I be writing against Professor Ngwasiri only after his Brother Christopher has openly given me a PASS MARK? Why could I not criticize his brother before? How stupid can you, Watesih, be to the extend that you are still trying to tell the public that I am the one writing against Professor Ngwasiri? Why should I write against a man who stands for what I believe? Is there any reader here who would believe you people that I am writing against Professor Ngwasiri as he struggles to clean the SDF that Ni John Fru Ndi has auctioned to president Paul Biya? How do you want readers to take all the LIES you are bringing here seriously? How do you expect readers to take your Anglophone cry die seriously? How do you expect readers not to look at you with suspicion? How do you people keep taking readers for fools? No one will join you people in your SDF crusade and your own selfish Anglophone struggle. Mine is against Ni John Fru Ndi and this is no secret. I have no problem with Professor Ngwasiri because this is the man who has refused to see SDF militants been taken hostage by Ni John Fru Ndi. This is a man who is prepared to die just to take SDF militants and the whole country out of the darkness that Ni John Fru has plunged them into. Have you, Watesih ever been told that Professor Ngwasiri has blood in his hands? Do you want me to elaborate?

Let me tell you that before you people started the war against me in this forum, Christopher Ngwasiri had not been brought in. You people started insulting him just because he carries the name "Ngwasiri" and because he openly identified himself and spoke out his mind. Christopher Ngwasiri could have decided not to identify himself by using fake names like Watesih (Water mouth in Mendakwe), Fon (fun in English) Lawrence, Klamenceau (Climbing soul in distorted pidgin), but he came out clear because he has nothing to hide. If he had used a different name, you people would have invented a new story.

It is interesting the way things are unfolding. From the start no one could have convinced you that you people would need century to lower my voice. You people minimized me and actually thought that you people can take this forum hostage. Readers are now surprised to see the changing strategies you people are using. You people used to immediately react to anything I write, but of recent, you people have not only been going into hidding, but you openly declare that you are taking leave. I will tell you that a General does not abandon a war no matter what strategy his opponent is using. By stating that you people wouldn't react to anything from me and boosting again that you have an issue here to defend, readers understand that I have rendered you people voiceless. You people are now very careful the way you write, struggling to fit where the majority fits. You people are now appealing and asking for reconciliation. Who would have expected this from you people? Reconciling with the man you consider an enemy?

The level of noise you people were making here has drastically reduced. Where is the Watesih, the Rexon, the Akoson, the Fon Lawrence and the Klamenceau, who had taken this forum hostage? Why are they no more running their mouths as they were doing before I exposed their selfish interests? Why is Rexon no more trying to make us forget about the Ni John Fru Ndi initiated mess in the SDF by inviting us into an aimless Anglophone-Francophone war in other forums. Why has he stopped the cry die? I mean, Rexon was already noted with this his primitive notion of the Anglophone struggle, which he was forcefully presenting to close our eyes from the mess in the SDF, until I xcame in to expose the hidden agenda in his mind. He was just running his mouth over all articles - insulting Agafor and apologizing etc.

If you people think that you can create a war between the Ngwasiris and me, then you are making a very big mistake. Presently in the SDF, there are two well defined camps - the progressive and democratic Ngwasiri original SDF camp and the Autocratic, tyranic and intimidating Ni John Fru Ndi CPDM/SDF camp. No reader would doubt the camp to which I belong. I solidly stand behind the Ngwasiri group and I oppose with ALL my heart the camp of Ni John Fru Ndi.

Let me tell you Watesih, even if all has sinned and has run short of the glory of God, I must assure you that the sins that Ni John Fru Ndi has committed against all of us is far more than all the hairs on your body - the hairs on your head, your ampit, around you "rod", around the "hole" you send out the remains of the food you eat, on your face, hands, legs, your nostrils, and the hairs all over your body-. This should tell you what damage Ni John Fru Ndi has done.

I will continue to defend the Ngwasiri group until the day he is intimidated by Ni John Fru Ndi into surrendering. Prof. has declared that he can not reconcile with his assasins, and I fully support him. Reconciling with Ni John Fru Ndi would be commiting a suicide. Ni John Fru Ndi planned for Professor Ngwasiri to be physically eliminated in Bamenda and then left for Great Britain, praying and hoping that Professor Ngwasiri would be assasinated in his absence. The plan failed because the thugs Ni John Fru Ndi had hired to kill Professor Ngwasiri at least had consciences and could not throw away the blood of such an elderly person. While in Great Britain, Ni John Fru Ndi was phoning Cameroon to find out if the plan worked. As befits his inborn nature, he was waiting for Professor Ngwasiri to be announced dead before he, Ni John Fru Ndi, goes public to read his already prepared statement in which he would condenm all those who have killed Professor Ngwasiri.

Look Watesih, if you people do not stop this open face hypocrisy you are bringing here, believe me, ...

[rexon]

Mukete,

I reply to u now because you refer to Rexon as Rexon not as Rexon Washow alias Tayong as you do in your previous references.

Whoever, i insulted and whoever i apologised to, in my view portrays my sense of maturity in this forum and in politics. I have been with the SDF as you and decided to stay out of the SDF for several reasons. Likewise, one of the reasons i have decided to stay out of this forum is because some unscrupulous individuals have used my emails address attached here to send viruses to all my computers. I mean a powerful virus. Not that i am afraid to comment here because you will describe it as noise. Between me and you, who makes noise?

You are a fool of the first order. Sorry, it is sunday and i am relaxing and watching my favourite Music group ABBA with my family, "the winner takes it all"

Hope you will learn to sleep without your demons running in your head.

[Langaisins]

To all supporters of the Bamenda Convention:
I am reacting to the posting by Fon Lawrence on 13/05/2006 at 4.47 p.m. about brainstorming for the Bamenda Convention. I am offering myself as a broker/receptacle for your suggestions on the correction of the problems facing the SDF to be channelled to the Organisers of the SDF Convention to be held in Bamenda on 26/05/2006. My terms are: send your suggestions to langaisins@yahoo.co.uk by the end of the day on Friday 19/05/2006. I will put them together and send them to all the contributors and to Samleyin, if he will be kind enough to accept the responsibility of taking the suggestions to the Organisers as above. In that case, I will need his email address.
You should be able to make your point in not more than 200 words; so avoid sending me long epistles because I will read only up to the 200th word and take whatever is contained in the first 200 words of your contribution. If all your contributions come in by Friday 19 May 2006, I promise to send you the final version of your contributions on 21/05/2006. I will not consider any contributions hostile to the Organisers of the Bamenda Convention. Over to you.

Rexon,
I have taken great restraint not to reply an opinionated hermit, but you just shattered my last nerve.
Who makes the rules as to defining positions or even writing here?..what rudeness. Is it that same light you are using for the Anglophone cause that you champion?
I even expected you to paraphrase the article in Cameroon`s constitution that makes me the ignorant type but you didn`t.
You surely had a Biafran passport as you say we are Biafrans.
Get this basic; secession literally means withdrawal from an organization.
Seriously, I never intended to put your name above and I don`t even feel like I talked you through.But you must not pretend no option is equivalent or better to what you stand for.
I must come up with a PART III of my reading of this forum and general reading of the sociopolitical climate in our darling country.It may give you some useful ignition.
Notice or information about the dwindling of resources at SONARA or the forests of Meme and Manyu is not privy to you alone.
One last thing; DON`T BE A JERK.
