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.

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.

ARE YOU REALLY A JOURNALIST?
IF YES WHERE DID YOU STUDY YOUR JOURNALISM?
IN A PALACE OR IN SCHOOL?
AKOSON IS BETTER THAN YOU.ATLEASE HE CAN GIVE A PROPOSAL TO BOTH PARTIES.
A SHEEP LIKE YOU WILL ONLY CAME HERE TO MAKE NOISE.I THINK YOU ARE JEALOUSE OF THE POST FOR STANDING OUT AS THE BEST NEWS ORGAN IN CAMEROON.THAT IS WHY YOU ALWAYS CAME IN HERE WITH OLD FASHIONED IDEAS.
JUST READ WHAT YOU WROTE '' ONE PROVINCE FOR THE BAMENDA CONVENTION AND ZERO FOR YAOUNDE'' THIS CAN ONLY CAME FROM A SHEEP.
YET YOU TRY TO COMPARE WITH MUKETE.YOU ARE REALLY A FRUSTRATED CAMEROONIAN.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION SDF IS FINANCE BY SOME OF US WRITING HERE .SO WHEN A SHEEP LIKE YOU WRITES SUCH THINGS WE ARE VERY HURT.
DONT CORRECT MY ENGLISH COS THAT IS THE ONLY THING A SHEEP LIKE YOU CAN DO.BUT REMEMBER WE DO FEED SOME OF YOU.

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.

[washow]

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.

[Tita Mofaw]

I got nothing against you Ashwell Molaba. What was it that I said to you last time that is still boiling in your stomach?

Tita Mofaw is tribalistic and stupid because I mentioned that Nkwei is a renouned anthropologist? Hahaaa.Somebody should comment on this.

And for the "clever" Ashwell Molaba,I don't have time for a prank like you because soon you would start sending me stupid emails if I dare say anything contrary to your stupid ideas.

Not that I am afraid to do so but because it would be a waste of time.You don't fit into the category of people that I pick up issues with.I was hoping that the likes of Mukete might have time to address you but it doesn't surprise me that no body gives a damn.You know why?

You are just so stupid and childish.I guess you think this is a forum for intellectualsim.Hohooo.Think twice my boy (pekin,grandpa or whatever).I am not the cause of your frustration and please don't start sending me emails.Say whatever nonsense you want on this forum but don't,I repeat don't send me a personal email.

Ashwell Molaba my ass.

[Teribobs]

Folks,
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.

BenB keep the faith!
BRB

[samleyin]

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).
