Rose Ndi, wife of Ni John Fru Ndi, Chairman of the opposition Social Democratic Front, SDF, party, was Tuesday, April 19, evacuated to Switzerland after she collapsed at her husband's Yaounde residence on April 16.The Post gathered that Rose Ndi collapsed due to high blood pressure.
The incident occurred at a reception offered by the party after a Socialist International Women Regional meeting in Yaounde.
Doctors described the situation as serious.
Rose Ndi was first rushed to Clinique Fouda in Yaounde. Then one of the two doctors who attended to her advised that she be evacuated to Switzerland.
SDF officials told The Post that the government dispatched Gregoire Owona, Minister in charge of Relations with the Assembly, with an offer to help.
The SDF party hierarchy accepted the offer. The government then provided an ambulance that took Rose from Yaounde to the Douala International Airport.
Government, The Post gathered, also provided the air ticket and promised to pick the hospital bills. A card, The Post learnt, was given by the government to be presented at the hospital in Switzerland.
Its not strange, When Fru Ndi started as an opposition leader he address President Biya nakedly without the normal prefix, Mr or President or H E. eg '"let Biya know that he is ready to face him personally". Soon it became,You people should teld master Biya the Cameroonians are tired of him and next to come is President Biya. Today Fru Ndi has moved to yaounde on what grounds and go as far as accepting assitance from the so call evil mr biya and his Government.... well more is still to br revield. I am coming stay watch.

Cameroonians,lets learn to be objective and fair when passing judgement on one another. Political rivals are not enemies.What is wrong if Fru Ndi's wife is given assistance like any other renound Cameroonian politician is being given? Is it not tax payers money? Does Fru Ndi not pay taxes?
Come to think of it,the assistance was not given on SDF-CPDM bases.The government is assisting Fru Ndi as a person and not SDF.Fru Ndi is SDF but SDF is not Fru NDI

John Fru Ndi called, and rightly so, for the boycott of the French and their products in the early 90s, and then turned around to do business with them (PMUC). If French business is bad enough for him to ask others to sacrfice their enterprises then why not him? Have the French changed? Didn'it they ochestrate the death of a million Africans in Rwanda, then 250,000 more in the Pool of Congo-Brazzaville?
His wife, if Le Messager is to be believed, was also granted sole concession to sell French cheeses in Bamenda, no wonder why the French puppets in Yaounde were rushed to offer assistance.
The crafty and devilish French have Fru Ndi in his pocket today, he and his SDF are the best thing going for the French in the Southern Cameroons today, beacuse the Southern Cameroons has now become a challenge for them. Just like Egbe was left to die beacuse he had nothing more to offer them, when Fru Ndi or his wife's time comes, they will receive the same treatment like Egbe. But they may be lucky - the Southern Cameroons will free them all from this burden of pity from people in Yaounde and Paris who could care less about African life.
Southern Cameroonians are not fooled. But I wish Mrs Ndi a quick recovery.

In Cameroon, wonders will never end.
WE CAN NOT USE THE DEVIL'S MONEY TO BUILD THE HOUSE OF GOD SIMPLY BECAUSE THE DEVIL STOLE THE MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE's TAXES. IF WE SHOULD DO THIS, THEN WE ARE NOT DIFFERENT FROM THE DEVIL AND WE HAVE ALSO STOLEN.
Those who would like to divert attention from the story posted by Messager should know that they are playing with fire. This is a very serious matter.
For now, we should wish Mrs Ndi a quick recovery. Only then are we going to call a spade a spade.
However, I would like to tell those Cameroonians who see nothing wrong in the CPDM government billing the costs of Mrs Ndi's medical care, that their reasoning holds no grounds and that they may be blindly defending some of the selfish interests of Ni John Fru Ndi while he gets richer and richer, at the expense of the poor.
Those who say that it is not the CPDM that gives the money should think twice. When the name of G. Owona (the man who contacted the Ndi family) is mentioned, it brings only fresh memories of CPDM. If it was the government giving this money, why was it not done through the head of government who happens to be an anglophone. Does G. Owona represent the government of Cameroon more than the PM?
Look, Paul Biya knows very well how to play his game, and I can assure you that the man has got Ni John Fru into his trap. Many things have transpired between Ni John Fru and the CPDM/French that make Ni John very careful when he points his finger against Biya.
Remember, just as Chantal Biya is first lady becuase his husband is head of state, so is Rose Ndi first opposition lady because his husband is head of the opposition.
That the family of Ni John Fru Ndi should accept such favours from the CPDM government is something to be taken very seriously. Does this imply that other Cameroonians have to attain the status of Ni John Fru Ndi or Egbe before the government can assist their dying family members? What brand of democracy is this? What do these Cameroonian politicians (Francophone or Anglophone) take the common Cameroonian for? Should the common man continue to allow our selfish leaders use us as ladder to eat the NATIONAL CAKE.
If this story is true, then John Fru Ndi will pay a very bitter price. If this story is true, then I can assure you that Ni John Fru Ndi has finally buried democracy. If this story is true, then from today, Cameroonians should be prepared to worship the devil and satan. If this story is true, then we should be ready to reject Ni John Fru Ndi, and to take the country back to square one.
As I stated before, we do not discuss this type of betrayal when the person at the center of the issue is in a critical situation. We should pray for Mrs Rose Ndi to recover very fast so that we open this chapter. However, it is now time for us to prepare our case and battle against Ni John Fru Ndi should in case this story be true.
We can not use the devil's money to build a church simply because the devil stole the money from our taxes. If we do this, then we are also devils.
I want to reserve my comments for now!

Do u think we should seat around and wait for Mr Fru Ndi's wife do die because the Government is helping Her.No i believe they should get aide.It is well Deserved.As somebody Mentioned.It is not CPDM but Cameroon Government giving aid.Don't u guys know the difference.Democracy doesn't mean enermity. Look at the U.S John Kerry was present for MR Bushes inauguration.Doesn't that tell u anything.I believe we need to redefine the fifference between Government and a political Party and government and a lwas abiding, Tax paying citizen

My sister died in Victoria hospital of a treatable condition. Should she not have been evacuated too? Mrs Ni John, she looks young and pretty like my sister, and I wish her well. The story of ET Egbe, which has been thrown around here like a tennis ball, tells the whole story. If you are no longer useful to the french, you are dropped. If you have never been useful to them, you never expected anything in the first place. Just know that when the time comes, you will die like a fowl. It is ironic what happens to the favoured ones. Eyadema dies in the air, on the way to the land of his owners. When you eat with the French ( and their servants) use a long spoon. Better yet, do not eat with the French. Long live Southern Cameroons.

It is a shame for FRU Ndi as a person.
A giant monopolistic bookseller for ages!
Owner of magnificient structures!!
BUT CANNOT EVACUATE HIS WIFE FROM HIS PERSONAL Financial source!!!
He`s disgraced a lot of fans
Posted by: six | Saturday, 23 April 2005 at 03:07 PM
Anyone who has worked with the public service knows that civil servants (and I am not talking of ministers or directors...) are routinely evacuated to Europe for medical treatment by the Government. While the situation is not as common as it was in the 80s, it happens all the time. So there is nothing new here...
Posted by: Ambe Johnson | Saturday, 23 April 2005 at 04:10 PM
Yes, government by the bureaucrats for the bureaucrats, bleeding ordinary people dry and using up all the resources. There should be no evacuation. A decent health care system is what is needed.
Posted by: Frank | Saturday, 23 April 2005 at 07:40 PM
The questions I expect Ambe and his friends to have clarified the following doubts:
1) In which capacity was GREGIORE OWONA offering the financial assistance to Mrs Rose Ndi? If this was been done as a good will gesture by the government, was OWONA the right person to do it? Where was the head of government - the PM? Even if this money was coming directly from the presidency, why was it not delivered through the Secretary General of the Presidency?
2) Do you think Biya and his CPDM fools were not aware of the implication of delivering this money through OWONA? Do you think the CPDM did not calculate before sending Mrs. Rose Ndi to Switzerland, instead of sending her to say Great Britain?
3) Must people attain the ranks of Ni John Fru Ndi, Egbe et al. before their family could benefit from good will gestures from the government? Ndi John Fru Ndi has been meeting people dying in hospitals becuase of lack of finances, but never has he phoned the government for assistance.
4) If we have to believe that Ni John Fru Ndi lacked the means to evacuate his beloved wife, then let him declare his assets as he has been asking Paul Biya to do. Cameroonians would now want to know how a simple book seller has become a billionaire over night.
5) Even if Ni John Fru Ndi is TOO selfish to the point that he was not willing to spend millions on his wife, why couldn't his parliamentarians put their hands into their pockets as a sign of good will gesture? Has the country not done this for the Indomitable Lions? Have Anglophones not done this for the University of Buea? Why couldn't the SDF borrowed money for the evacaution and then ask for SOS donations from SDF members?
6) How was the contact made between Gregoire Owona and the Ni Fru Ndi family? Who informed Gregoire Owona that Mrs Rose Ndi was sick and why?
7)Even if civil servants are routinely avacuated abroad for treatment as someone naively want to make us understand, how is the selection made? Who determines who is to be evacuated? Besides, is Mrs Fru Ndi a civil servant? Is there a special status for opposition leaders as is the case for parliamentarians?
8) Ni John Fru Ndi has been molested many times by the military and the government, and Paul Biya has minimized him to the point that he has NEVER accepted any requests to personally meet with Ni John Fru Ndi. How can we explain the fact that Fru Ndi is benefiting from this very government today?
9) If the private press had not exposed this deal, do you think Ni John Fru Ndi and the SDF would have informed the public that Mrs. Fru Rose was in europe under the CPDM government pay roll? If this was an honest deal, why was the public not informed by Ni John himself? And even if Ni John was receiving the funds from the government, where was he planning to send his "THANK YOU" message?
10) Who signed any checks or cards that was handed to the Fru Ndi family for the evacuation?
11) Is Ni John Fru Ndi planning to make public how this "government money" was spent?
Look my people, the mentality of these old people (Ni John included) has to change. These people are simply using the common man as giunea pigs for thier selfish interests. Ni John would have asked the government to extend the same assistance to other Cameroonians who can not even buy a tablet of paracetanol.
I think it is time for the younger generation to lose their temper, especially now that Ni has exposed his true colours. We have to vomit this man out.
As I stated before, some people might take this issue very lightly, but I want to let it be known that our blood is already boiling within us. This is first class hypocrasy and I think Ni John Fru Ndi will pay bitterly for it.
I am ready to tell Ni John in his face that he has failed, even if I have to do this in Liberty Square in Bamenda. Six people did not sacrifice their lives during the lauching of the SDF to give Ni John Fru the green light to enrich himself.
For now, we anxiously wish Mrs. Fru Rose a speedy recovering. Poor Rose! She was not aware his husband could eat with the devil over her sick body. Poor Rose! She could not believe the husband and his rich friends could not send her to europe for treatment.
We are still coming to this bitter issue.

WE NEED PEOPLE WITH A STRONG MIND WHO CAN SUSTAIN A LONG FIGHT. HOW CAN A BOOK SELLER TURNED MILLIONARE DENY TREATMENT TO HIS DYING WIFE.
THIS IS THE JESUS CHRIST WE THOUGHT CAME TO SAVE CAMEROON. HE IS NOW JUDAS. WE WOULD GET HIM......
Posted by: PETER NGWA | Sunday, 24 April 2005 at 11:33 AM
I agree with anybody who is against the fact that Ni John accepted financial aid from the government. What a humiliation! In any case, I'm not surprised. Ni John is just one of those hungry and selfish opposition leaders we have in African. In the first place, what is he doing in Yaounde? He had gained so much respect when he was in Bamenda. But being the greedy and self-centered person he is, he just couldn't continue from Bamenda. He had to move to Yaounde so that when Biya is finished eating, he licks the plaat.
Where is the democracy when Ni John has to remain the chair-man of the party for all this years and during every presidential election he stands for president. There is just no difference between him and Biya. Greed for power. The saying goes, "the devil you know is better than the angel you do not know" I do not expect a miracle if in any situation Ni John happens to be the president of Cameroon. The disadvantages we've suffered since he brought multipartism are just so many. Biya is still in power and still being the same naughty boy. the only bad thing now is that ni John is right where he will be having the crumbs.
PLEASE WE ARE BEGGING YOU TO STEP DOWN AS CHAIRMAN OF THE SDF AND GIVE ANOTHER PERSON A CHANCE.
Posted by: Divina | Sunday, 24 April 2005 at 01:58 PM
Ha... Fru Ndi Oboso!!! Your end will be worst than that of Biya... When Fru Ndi Boldly told the population of Douala that he bought a Jeep wif the Money Biya Gave him for his mother's death, i was humbled. I bowed at politics. Kai... "Fru Bin Iscariota"!!! "El Judasse"!
BTW may his WIFE rest in peace!
Posted by: Maitre Bataka | Sunday, 24 April 2005 at 03:24 PM
How dare you people talk so badly about Ni Ndi! Firstly, who told you people that Ni Ndi had moved to Yaounde? Yes He has a house in Yaounde but how many times have you gone to Bamenda and not met him there? and even if he moved to Yaounde, you talk about being "old blood" so saying that he would have stayed in Bamenda who is the person acting like "old blood"! As some people said, should Mrs. Rose Ndi not be rushed to the hospital if need arises? She and her husband were given a helping hand, why reject it? People better redefine what they really think about Ni Ndi and straighten out things in their minds! For how long has he been fighting for the liberation of our people and you dare say we need new blood in the SDF! Ni Ndi has suffered too much for all of us! He decided to not join the Southern Cameroons movement to gain independence because he wants to see Cameroon grow like it should be and you dare talk bad about him! Please do not disgrace you and our population! Give Ni Ndi what e deserves! If you think getting aid from the government was a mistake then accept it as a mistake, we are humans and we all do mistakes but i see nothing wrong in it! at all, at all!! he pays taxes, he was given the opportunity to take his wife to the hospital and he did! think twice Cameroonians! We are all tired! Tired of supression, tired of not being able to talk, tired of not receiving what we are suppose to, but please point fingers to the right direction!!!
Posted by: T.M. Peter | Sunday, 24 April 2005 at 06:55 PM
There is no heading in Cameroon's budget set aside for evacuating the wives of politicians for treatment abroad. By all standards this is not a situation of national disaster. I hope the SDF MPs would have the wisdom and loyalty to the Cameroonian people to question where that money came from in the next budgetary session of the National Assembly.
Civil servants used to be, and can still be evacuated for specialist treatment abroad because that procedure is clearly set out in the Public Service. I am not sure whether Mrs Ndi is entitled to benefit from this scheme. However, I would be tempted to think that Mr Fru Ndi should be able to have had the financial and intellectual wisdom to take out an insurance policy for his family. It is absolutely ridiculous if he accepts the use of misappropriated tax-payers money for his personal benefit. What would have been the case if he was the one in Etoudi?! I prefer not to make guesses.
We understand that a Cameroonian compatriot is ill and needs treatment. I know of at least another one million equally deserving Cameroonians who desperately need such a treatment. And there are many more who don't even need evacuation abroad, but are dying everyday in their hundreds because they can't afford a local treatment for 10,000frs!
The country belongs to all Cameroonians and that is what we are fighting for. And that is what I thought the SDF and Mr Fru Ndi were fighting for. All Cameroonians have the right to access to optimal healthcare. Mr Fru Ndi is finally proving to the Cameroonian people that maybe we were wrong all along. Maybe we would not have changed anything if the name in Etoudi was changed. I think I can see the writing on the wall,....

She was a Christian, simple and outstanding warrior who supported her husband to the last minute. We now hear that Rose has unfortunately gone ahead of us to the land of no return. May her soul rest in peace.
In retrospect, Fru Ndi is a man of vision, had sensed the grave circumstances and acted with integrity in a timely manner. The Government must be blamed for dire medical provisions in Cameroon.

What a story!
I am sure Mukete and his followers are the right people to let Cameroonians out of their misery.I am very sure if mrs Mukete was in such a situation he would be so rational in scrutinizing any immediate source of help that was offered before deciding wether to accept it or not.What an inspiring and rational man like mukete.
I should suppose he has never been a civil servant in Cameroon because a critical mind like his should not work in Cameroon because we all know the impatial circumstances under which people are recruited into cameroon civil service.Beside, why even work for the devil as Mukete and his boys have asserted.Working for ther devil will simple make you one.
I remember in one of the SDF rallies when Ni John said and has been saying it again and again that if they (governemnt of Cameroon ) gives you money for what ever reason,take it but always let your concious decide for you the right thing.After all it is the tax payers money and you deserve a share.
It is a shame that the same Bouba Bellos,Kodoucks,Nkwains,Muketes etc who have been clapping hands and stealing not only from the national treasury but directly from their boss paul Biya will turn around and accuss somebody for accepting a simple offer for his dying wife.
Shame to Mukete and his folks
U'll never stop from being a hypocrate.

Cameroon will never grow if people keep reasoning this way. I am shocked at the way people have attacked Fru Ndi on this forum for accepting help from the government to evacuate his wife abroad for treatment.
Can I make this clear? Those attacking Fru Ndi for hiding his "millions" and refusing to help his wife should know that even with "billions" Fru Ndi will still not evacuate his wife abroad if the government so wishes. so can those silly,good-for nothing,myopic,bloody nimcompoops think before writing trash? Let the chairman alone for once!!!

Posted by: Samlova | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 04:43 AM
I really can see that many dopes who probably are henchmen of CPDM lords who are living out of the country with money embezzled from public coffers have rushed here to express how much they hate Fru Ndi for being the principled man he is. None of what you say against him can be proven but it saddens me to know that even when he loses his wife, people have the courage to write all the rubbish I have read above just because access to internet is available to all.
Rose, May your soul RIP
John, Take heart, God will make a way...
Posted by: Justinbats | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 06:25 AM
When did you ever hear a Mukete do anything for anybody, sacrifice for anybody or say anything on behalf of anybody, if there wasn't some gain in it for them? Selfishness is a trait which does not respect ill health or death.
May Mrs. Ndi's soul rest in perfect peace (hopefully, in a place where there are no Muketes)
Posted by: pw | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 08:54 AM
Cameroonians are always ready to criticize. We have been to critical to a fault. somebody is dying and we all blame her hausband for getting aid to save life?? It´s a shame my brothers!!!!!!!!! CPDM, SDF,SCNC, whatever you call what, I think as humans in their normal reasoning we should be out to protect life!!!
May the Good Lord welcome Rose Ndi into her kinfgdom and my heart felt condolence to the Family.
Posted by: Paddy | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 09:19 AM
We are all being really silly here. No one does not share in the grief of the Ndi family and all freedom hungry Cameroonians. Mrs Ndi is dead. But that is no reason to stop the struggle. We cannot ignore the reasons for which she died fighting, that would mean she died for nothing.
RIP Madam, the struggle was your life. I pray we (including your very dear ones) can follow your example and say 'the struggle is our lives'.
Posted by: R. DeSouza | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 10:24 AM
Cameroonian Politics is getting really mature. Put your differences behind you and help each other like brothers, citizens of one country in times of life or death. In 1990 Fru Ndi would never have accepted such help from the government. The government on the other hand would not have offered. Fru Ndi is the main and strongest opposition Leader in the country. The Government simply took its responsibility. I must make mention here its not the first time the government is sponsoring a citizen for treatment abroad. The call for debate here is simply the fact that she is the wife of a prominent figure.
We love you , Mrs Rose Ndi
Posted by: Smartcalo | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 11:23 AM
The lady in question finally died. Lets please give John F. Ndi some breathing space to mourn his loss.
We must all understand the pressure he must have been in. If your child is dying and the only person who has a car to take them to hospital is your enemy, do you allow your pride to kill the child? As Achebe says, let us drive away the fox first, before warning the hen against straying too far.
I totally understand the situation the Chairman was in and he had no alternative. Is he the one to build good hospitals in Cameroon with his private money? That is Biya's work?
Some people say Fru Ndi has sent all his children abroad while the ordinary Cameroonians suffer. Well again did he use government money to do that. He has the right to own personal property so long as it is honestly acquired.
Please lets leave Fru Ndi alone.
Posted by: JP TANYONG | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 11:58 AM
No one is trying to denigrate the life of Mrs Rose Ndi but we have to get things clear here. As a political leader, Fru Ndi should be an example for other Cameroonians to emulate. We have heard him time and again accuse Biya and his acolytes of mismanaging national funds and the help accorded his wife is just one of those malpractices he set out to discourage.Millions of Cameroonian lifes have been wasted simply because they and their families couldnot afford to settle petty bills in village health centres.Fru Ndi has acquired enough over the years to be able to foot his bills and if not for greed, why did he accept Mr Biya's offer? Can anyone deny the fact that Biya is a good man or so a philanthropist so to speak? Or should we now believe that Fru Ndi was too blind to accept a poisoned gift from someone he publicly declared an enemy? Please, such help should be directed to the millions of Cameroonians in the villages who very much need government's assistance for their subsistence. May the soul of Mrs Ndi rest in perfect peace but Mr Ndi, society's eyes are on you and you owe the Cameroonian people an explanation.

Everyone has a right to voice out his or her opinion on the subject of dicusion; that is off-course democracy. The point here is no one, no human is free from short commings or mistakes so Pa John is no exception. Yes I agree; to me he wouldn't have accepted that offer, he would have in case of lack the means called on the massive SDF population for aid. The Anglophones have done that before for SCNC and they would have done it again but this time round including francophones alike. Things would have been different. Who will doubt the fact if one was to point a finger on the very government for this catastrophic. Who knows, God alone does. Well Pa made that mistake to accept an enemy to carry to cary a belove wife an mother of freedom fighters to a hospital likely to be his (enemy's) but he remain the man of our time no one so far as beaten his records in cameroon. Brothers and sisters you must understand the stress and pressure the chairman is going through all these years especially now, he needs our kind words and support at this point in time. He needs us more than ever before. And after this we look forward entering the gate of freedom in a free southern Cameroon state. I wish ma was there at that time unfortunately not, MAY HER SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE.

I pray for the peaceful repose of the soul of Late Mrs. Rose Ndi.
It is painful to lose a beloved soul and at the threshold of death we often wish we can give up anything for that beloved figure who loved us selflessly.
Nobody should try to score political points on this issue, especially since the deceased was basically a civilian in the political struggle.
Posted by: Janvier Tchouteu | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 03:17 PM
I did not know how stupid Mukete was, until at this point. If that fellow feels Ni John should have acted contrary to what he did, then he's out of His mind. You call yourself Mukete or what? You have no human feelings. Ni John, your family will continue to be in thoughts and prayers of God fearing Cameroonians. You're a shame Mukete.
Posted by: Ian | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 03:27 PM
We are not talking here about the passing away of Mrs. Fru Ndi. Many Cameroonians have passed away before her and even now that we are writing, Cameroonians are dying in their thousands, in Yaounde, Douala, Bamenda, Tiko, Kumba, Mamfe, and even out of Cameroon.
Going through my previous contribution, I had prayed for the quick recovery of Mrs. John Fru Ndi and I had also pitied her for having a very selfish and self-centered husband like NI John Fru Ndi. I would even make reference to a section of what I had written:
"For now, we anxiously wish Mrs. Fru Rose a speedy recovering. Poor Rose! She was not aware his husband could eat with the devil over her sick body. Poor Rose! She could not believe the husband and his rich friends could not send her to europe for treatment".
What people like Aborister, Justinbats, Janvier Tchouteu, etc. have written against me (not even against my contribution)goes a long way to show that some of us are actually standing on our brains. What they write is not only out of content, it is completely without thought content and it is empty of meaning. As if to expose how stupid and myopic these "over-concerned" Cameroonians are, they are attacking the name "Mukete" because, may be, they have heard stories about a particular Mukete family. How can people be so blind in their reasoning, especially when they struggle to hide clear facts.
Look, the Mukete who is writing is someone who lets the plain naked truth speak for itself and if confusionists and skeptics like Aborister, Justinbats and others would not listen, then it is their fault and they must be contented to surfer for it. Before attacking the name "Mukete", these over-zealous Homo sapiens would have been quick to understand that they have not been bold to use their true family names. They are trying to defend the "NATIONAL MESS AND BETRAYAL" from Ni John Fru Ndi by acting as the "Faces behind the MasKs.Shame!
Those who would want to link my "Mukete" to any other Mukete they have known, should know that they missed the point. There are many muketes, Frus, Ndis, Biyas, Fonchas, Egbes, etc.
To these blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi, who would not want me to "wash the dirty linen of the chairman in public", I would like to refer them to my contributions in this same forum, which added some light on the story published when the same Ni John Fru Ndi attacked Journalist and Newspaper vendors in his compound. If at all I have something personal against Ni John, then I wouldn`t have written what I did.
As I had stated before, we were praying for the quick recovery of Mrs. Fru Ndi. If she has passed away, as some contributors want us to believe, then all we can do now, is to wish that her soul rest in perfect peace. That is all! Only God can do the rest!
MAMAN ROSE, MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE. AS BEFITS SUCH A SITUATION, I ALSO EXTEND MY HEART-FELT SYMPATHY TO THE BEREAVED FAMILY.
This is all I can do. The time has passed when I could have made my own humble contribution to save her life. Notwithstanding, the passing of our beloved sister does NOT set Ni John Fru Ndi free. This man MUST be santioned for having betrayed Cameroonians; this man must be punished for having "dirty political intercourse using her beloved wife as a bed; this man must be punished for telling Cameroonians lies.
To all skeptics, who may be raising their tiny fingers and "unpatriotic minds" to write against this contribution,I want to make their immature reasoning childishly simple:
1) For many years back, we have been informed by Ni John Fru Ndi himself that the CPDM government has offered him, on many ocassions, billions asnd bank accounts abroad, so as to enable him abandon his fight against Biya. IMPORTANT QUESTION: When Ni John was refusing to take this money and the bank accounts from Biya`s government, did he, JOHN FRU NDI, not know that it was "government money" or "tax-payers money"? It becomes funny to hear people stating that throughout, Ni John has been asking Cameroonians to take any money the government gives to them. Did the same Ni John not criticize others for taking money from the same government? Do you want people like Lapiro de Manga, Gustav Essaka, Bello Bouba, etc. to write in this forum?
In fact, it is only in Cameroon that we actually find mad people with suits and ties moving freely around and even wanting to defend thieves and hypocrates in a forum like the one we are using here.This is naked-face hypocrasy!
2) These same "Ni John" supporters who feel slighted by the "SINFUL" acts of Ni John, and who are now, like sinking natives, trying to repaint Ni John`s image, would have accepted the damage done and then ask Ni John to ask for forgiveness. What would these same "over-know" Cameroonians have written if it was the wife of a politician of the Presidential majority who had benefitted from the favour Ni John got from the government. They would have been swift to say: "they don chop soya".
Look, the soya Ni john has been accusing people of having eaten is now deep inside his stomach.His is even double: from the french and the government.
3)I do not encourage death, no matter how it comes, and no matter who its target is. But I want to let it be known that just as Ni John Fru Ndi is mourning his wife, as we all do, there are million of Cameroonians mourning millions of Cameroonians. Of course, we should give Ni John Fru time to mourn his wife, but there are millions of Cameroonians who have been refused that privilege to mourn their beloved ones.
4)I have ask many questions to which my skeptics can not give answers. Instead they are diverting attentions, beating about the bush as if looking for political salvation for Ni John, and as if they drowning in a sea, they want to grab people for help. DO YOU THINK THAT IF A LOCAL NEWSPAPER HAD NOT EXPOSED THE DEAL TO THE PUBLIC, Ni John Fru Ndi could have informed even SDF supporters that he also ate Soya from Biya`s government? Let us be serious even for one second!
5) And now that these skeptics want to take this betrayal as something NOW very normal, are they expecting the Chairman to tell the public how it all transpired and how the money was used? Since it is government money, is he going to pay taxes on it?
6)Look people, we should learn to call a spade a spade. With all the billions that Fru Ndi has accumulated, was it impossible for him to shoulder the bills to treat the person he loves most? Even if Ni John was so selfish so as not to put his hands into his pocket, why couldn`t he plead with his parliamentarians and SDF supporters. I would like to remind you that SDF parliaments are known to contribute part of their salaries to give to Ni John Fru as compensate for he not going into parliament like Adamou Ndam njoya.
7) I think I had made my case before, and by adding more fasts, I simply want to make those who want to intimate me that they are merely throwing water on a duck`s back.
BUT BEFORE I END THIS PARTICULAR CONTRIBUTION, WE WOULD NOT ACCEPT SOME OF THE CHAIRMAN`S NORMAL excuses: "Some of my people did this in my absence". This is what he told us when the tripartite deal was made in yaounde, when the the frustrated Doctor from M`vomeka was on his knees. This was the very story he told us when a pact was signed between the SDF and CPDM in Bamenda.
But who do these quack politicians think they are toying with.
... let us just wait and see how this matter will end.

We are not talking here about the passing away of Mrs. Fru Ndi. Many Cameroonians have passed away before her and even now that we are writing, Cameroonians are dying in their thousands, in Yaounde, Douala, Bamenda, Tiko, Kumba, Mamfe, and even out of Cameroon.
Going through my previous contribution, I had prayed for the quick recovery of Mrs. John Fru Ndi and I had also pitied her for having a very selfish and self-centered husband like NI John Fru Ndi. I would even make reference to a section of what I had written:
"For now, we anxiously wish Mrs. Fru Rose a speedy recovering. Poor Rose! She was not aware his husband could eat with the devil over her sick body. Poor Rose! She could not believe the husband and his rich friends could not send her to europe for treatment".
What people like Aborister, Justinbats, Janvier Tchouteu, etc. have written against me (not even against my contribution)goes a long way to show that some of us are actually standing on our brains. What they write is not only out of content, it is completely without thought content and it is empty of meaning. As if to expose how stupid and myopic thes "over-concerned" Cameroonians are, they are attacking the name "Mukete" because, may be, they have heard stories aqbout a particular Mukete family. How can people be so blind in their reasoning, especially when they struggle to hide clear facts.
Look, the Mukete who is writing is someone who lets the plain naked truth speak for itself and if confusionists and skeptics like Aborister, Justinbats and others would not listen, then it is their fault and they must be contented to surfer for it. Before attacking the name "Mukete" these over-zealous Homo sapiens would have been quick to understand that they have not been bold to use their family names. They are trying to defend the "NATIONAL MESS AND BETRAYAL" from Ni John Fru Ndi by acting as the "Faces behind the MasKs.
Those who would want to link my "Mukete" to any other Mukete they have known, should know that they missed the point. There are many muketes, Frus, Ndis, Biyas, Fonchas, Ebges, etc.
To these blind supporters of Ni John Fru Ndi, who would not want me to "wash the dirty linen of the chairman in public", I would like to refer them to my contributions in this same forum, which added some light on the story published when the same Ni John Fru Ndi attacked Journalist and Newspaper vendors in his compound. If at all I have something personal against Ni John, then I wouldn`t have written what I did.
As I had stated before, we were praying for the quick recovery of Mrs. Fru Ndi. If she has passed away, as some contributors want us to believe, then all we can do now, is to wish that her soul rest in perfect peace.
MAMAN ROSE, MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE. AS BEFITS SUCH A SITUATION, I ALSO EXTEND MY HEART-FELT SYMPATHY TO THE BEREAVED FAMILY.
This is all I can do. The time has passed when I could have made my own humble contribution to save her life. Notwithstanding, the passing of our beloved sister does NOT set Ni John Fru Ndi free. This man MUST be santioned for having betrayed Cameroonians; this man must be punished for having "dirty political intercourse using her beloved wife as a bed; this man must be punished for telling Cameroonians lies.
To all skeptics, who may be raising their tiny fingers and "unpatriotic minds" to write against this contribution,I want to make their immature reasoning childishly simple:

Mr. Mukete,
I have written nothing against you on this issue.
I empathize with the loss of Mrs. Rose Ndi as I would empathize over the loss of anybody I have met or known.
I tried to understand the mind of Fru Ndi at the time his wife lay dying and he was offered help. He could either think as a committed husband and do anything possible to save his wife or he could hold his grounds as an unwavering leader who would have no dealings with his supposed "political foes". Any choice would have drawn criticism with the death of his wife.
If his wife hadn't been evacuated and died in kamerun, the personal or private side of his life (family & friends) would have criticized him for not doing enough. On the other hand, we find his decision to accept assistance being considered as controversial.
At the same time, I understand that some public figures who reject the system would have refused the offer of assistance with a "No, thank you." Whatever, it was a decision that would have been hard for most people to make.

Enough. Let the man mourn his wife.
Posted by: Boni | Monday, 25 April 2005 at 10:01 PM
I have not been able to go through the lengthy essays written by some in this forum but I pray for those who think that Fru Ndi would have done otherwise. I think some of you would have refused help from the government and sacrifice the life of your beloved one. It is unfortunate that his wife finally past away but I think he didn't relax and see his wife dying
Maybe some of you don't read between the lines. Aborister said it all as copied from him;
"I remember in one of the SDF rallies when Ni John said and has been saying it again and again that if they (government of Cameroon ) gives you money for what ever reason, take it but always let your conscious decide for you the right thing. After all it is the tax payers’ money and you deserve a share."
It is true that millions of Cameroonians die everyday because of lack of financial help. But I think we are able to express our opinions today without any fear, thanks to Fru Ndi and the SDF. Fru Ndi’s fight is to see how the lives of the many Cameroonians will change for the better. I think it is better to openly accept help than to embezzle.
What Fru Ndi did confirms what he has been advocating since the creation of the SDF.
It puzzles me when some of us call Cameroon money the devil's money. I think the devil is stealing from us and we should be able to get back our money from the devil if possible. But I pray it should be taken back in a good way not due to the threat of death.
Some of you should ask yourselves if Fru Ndi was rich before becoming a politician. No poor man can form a political party and manage it the way Fru Ndi has done and is doing. You will say he receives financial support. But note that Fru Ndi was rich before becoming a politician. If you doubt it, you can check his past life and history.
Please Fru Ndi, take heart and bless God for all.
Posted by: Klemenceau | Tuesday, 26 April 2005 at 12:51 AM
Mr Mukete, please before you continue giving examples of the Bellos and Lapiros, try to look at the motives why the CPDM gave them money.
You rightly said the government wanted Fru Ndi to give up the fight and accept the money. Lapiro and the others took money and joined or supported the CPDM. Fru is against corruption and is doing everything to stand against it. Or will you say he was corrupted because he accepted assistance from the government?
Fru Ndi didn't use the millions he has accumulated because he was given assistance and accepting it was not a crime, so he went for it. He is keeping to the SDF's policies. Since the creation of the SDF, it's policies have not changed. Maybe you should redefind the pact they signed with the CPDM in Bamenda and how it has changed the party's policy of opposing the wrongs of the CPDM.
Maybe you will let us know in this Forum that the assistance given to Fru Ndi was to enable him abandon the fight. If that is confirmed, then we will support the fact that Fru Ndi is a traitor. If not, then your argument has no strong foundation.

Mukete or who ever u think u are, can u bloody see a psychiatrist to check out if you are mentally balanced? What are u rambling about? Have u taken time off to examine all like-minded politicians in cameroon ? Stop shedding crocodile tears about the death of the Chairman's wife
U are a true fleshed hypocritical cameroonian and a Mukete at that. if u are that over protective of the destruction in cameroon, be bold and tell us where u are and who u really are. I can bet u are no Mukete..And do take a couple of english lessons because u do need them. U are what u are, an empty scumbug.

Immaculate statement.

True! To many questions to be answered. This is not the time to throw these criticisms at John Ndi. Even if he were our enemy, we still have an obligation to love him now in this time of great loss.
What makes this so very terrible is that Ni John has in my opinion the financial ability to evacuate his wife!
Who is the devil here, the government or the CPDM?
Ma Rose, RIP.
We must also not lose sight of the wonderful things Ni has done for this country, even he can no longer deliver the goods.
Let us deal with this after the mourning.
Posted by: Afeseh Ngwa Hilary | Tuesday, 26 April 2005 at 05:11 AM
It's a shame, we lost Mrs.Ndi.
No doubt, pain does not come to distort truth.I have read a hand full of reactions to Mukete's mail and just want to make a few observations.
Firstly, the bible says that; "the wealth of the unrighteous are laid-up for the just" but we're faced with a situation of two unjusts. Like Mukete put it,what is the place of G. Owona, sitting-in for the Gov't, as opposed to H.E.The P.M?
Statistically,let's honestly consider how many times G. Owona Has sat in for the Gov't side by side how many times he has sat in for CPDM.
I have come to understand that a lot of those reacting negatively to Mukete's point of view are young people.It is very evident then that you can be lured into joining an occult group because you are at a point of need.
Remember that Jacob took advantage of the hungry state of his brother Esau, to have him sell his birth right for a plate of food(Check the book of Genesis inthe Bible).
If you can not read between the lines, you have still not lived long enough to address such profound issues.
Truth is to emotions(feelings), as fear is to faith.
keep your emotions under control.

It's really true that WE Africans still have some kind of believe that politicians are enemies, which is not true. Politics have nothing to do with Fru Ndi taking money from the Government. Cameroon money does not belong to anybody, some of us Cameroonians are the ones that encourages Mr. Biya and his government to steal the Cameroonian money. It is the duty of the government to do what they had done and I'm happy it was not given as a gift from CPDM or Biya. Even if they have something behind that money, all I know is that it'll never work because Fru Ndi will never agree with them in anything that concerns politics.
It's only in Africa and especially in Cameroon where politicians don't come together to discuss about state matters, and that is why Biya is sitting on our money. When you have the will to dialogue, things move well, but Cameroonians have made Popol to believe that if he want to dialogue with Fru Ndi, he'll only try to bribe him to join his government, which Fru Ndi cannot. Fru Ndi's wife's dead has nothing to do with Politics no the money given to him.
If there is no politics, then the country must not be proud of anything, and it depends on how you play the politics. Especially when it concerns money. If you are given money, look why that money is given to you, if really you deserve it, Fru is not that type who takes money here and there because he's in need, if not we wouldn't have been talking about SDF today, SDF would have been under CPDM long ago. You'll ask me why Cardinal Tumi has always refused the bribe from the government, to shut up his mouth right? That's just what makes our politicians good politicians and anybody who takes money in the name of bribery is not a politicians, Cardinal is not a politician, but someone who looks into what should be done in this country just as Fru Ndi. So when you are talking here, please think twice what you say.
FRU NDI HAS THE RIGHT TO TAKE THAT MONEY BECAUSE IT IS THE GOVERNMENT'S MONEY AND NOT BIYA'S MONEY. HE DESERVES IT, JUST THAT THE GOVERNMENT CAME IN LATE AND HE COULD NOT GO AND ASK FOR HELP TO CURE HIS WIFE....HE HAS TRIED ALL HE COULD AROUND THE COUNTRY's HOSPITALS AND IF REALLY ANYBODY HERE IS SINCERE AS WE ARE BLAMING HIM, WHY NOT HELP HIM ADVICED HIM EARLIER THAN TO TALK RUBISH ABOUT HIM.

Paul Biya has been known to be a man who is fond of springing surprises. Why don't we think that he is preparing to hand this thing to the rightful owner? We all remember the talk about the stolen victory in 1992. He is sending Mrs Ndi to the hospital from which he and his family receive treatment so that she can see and evaluate the services she will henceforth be receiving s the first lady. Let us stop blaming the SDF for accepting the offer and wait with our fingers crossed for the announcement. Long Live Cameroon.

The issue here is not whether or not people are able to write flattering sympathetic words. We can't dine with the devil only because he promises to be a good boy. In fact we can't be allowed to believe anything from the devil, even if it smells, feels and tastes good. It is a well known fact that the evil one has a very sweet tongue.
Those of you who think that Biya and his croonies were acting in good faith by assisting Fru Ndi to evacuate his wife should have a look at the crtv website. The News headlines of Monday 25 April carry the news of the death of Mrs Rose Ndi as the last item!
Coming 'respectfully' after such rubbish as 'Livestock and Forestry Minister embarks on tour of Littoral Province'.
Now those of you who have been blinded to the reality because Mrs Ndi passed away, would you say the 'news' of whatever minister touring is more important to the Cameroonian people than the news of the passing away of the wife of the most prominent political leader?
And please, before insulting somebody because of his name, READ HIS IDEAS. Only then would your own ideas even be given consideration. Mukete, I think we should not allow people who are low enough to use name prejudice to stop us from expressing our ideas freely.
Posted by: R DeSouza | Tuesday, 26 April 2005 at 09:02 AM
I have carefully gone through all the arguments listed above and i really can recommend some people as good politicians while others are just quacks that are too critical about things they shouldn't for what ever reason, be critical about.
One thing Cameroonians should understand is that Biya did not knock Fru Ndi's door in the morning and offered him some money to shut his mouth. We are talking about a man who's wife is dying and he is a big political figure in the country and is also, like any other Cameroonian, entitled to the profit that the country makes though it ends up some where in Etoudi.
Second thing you should understand is that the papers don't say that Fru Ndi lacked money to take his wife abroad for treatment. The bullshit government for once understood that it was it's responsibility to take care of it's number one opposition leader. Not all gifts from the enemy are poisoned especially talking about the case of Fru Ndi.He has skyscrapers all over and he receives rents.Before he became a politician, he was a richman. He is still a richman not because of the Cameroon government. Don't be mistaken. Go to his files and findout what i'm saying. Someone mentioned above that a rich man cannot form a party. That is absolutely right.
I just don't know when Cameroonians will look beyond their horizons and learn from developed countries. Politics does not mean criticizing everything your political enmity does. He should be appreciated if he reasons and does a right thing for once.
My sympathy to the Ndi's family.Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt but some other person led them into the promise land. So it really doesn't matter.
Posted by: Dr Kings | Tuesday, 26 April 2005 at 09:25 AM
It troubles me much when we keep on talking about the devil's money or dinning with the devil. Some of us want to give the impression that the money given to Fru Ndi came from private pockets. If this money was from private pockets, then there must be a string attached to it. But what i want to make clear here is that Cameroon is ruled by people controlled by the devil but the state money is not owned by the devil. If people want to quote the bible, they should also be aware of the interpretation of events in the bible and relate it properly to the present situation.
Maybe some of you will soon say the salary the government is paying civil servants comes from the devil. Or you want to let me understand that civil servants are paid for work done. If you think so, you will be jumping the gun because once a devil remains a devil and I think we better stop working for and accepting payment from the devil.
We should be able to assess somebody properly before passing judgement. I stand for Fru Ndi because I know any sincere and open minded Cameroonian will testify to the fact that since the creation of the SDF in the 90s, Fru Ndi has never meant any monkey business. Whether you accept my point is neither here nor there, I'm sorry, but it is an indisputable fact.
For now, Fru Ndi is the icon that many of you are erroneously criticizing. I beseech you to wait until Fru Ndi is trapped before you criticize. For now his sheet is still very clean and your criticisms are just a raw deal. Fru Ndi does not deserve that for now. Let's wait and see if he will fall as the Bellos and the Lapiros that someone mentioned.
I hate false sympathy but we must not pretend not to be emotional. I think to sympathize with the bereaved is not being too emotional. People should not think that they can control their emotions better than others.
Shalom.

I think we are in politics we should know is a dirty game and play it well. I think Mr Fru Ndi is just using his part of his of the government money. Who will really spit out honey in his or her mouth? Well what’s bad is if he receives the money and betrays the party.
During the day most of us say all ills about CPDM but we are first to put on fire on our body in the name of uniform and most of us go and drink during campaigns and stuff like that. What do you then expect of Fru Ndi.
May Her soul rest in peace
Posted by: M A shu | Wednesday, 27 April 2005 at 02:34 AM
Hi Mukate or you call your self what. What are you up to now?
I will like to ask you these questions
If you were in Fru Ndi’s position will you allow your wife, sister, child, father or mother to die because of selfish pride, when assistance is suppose to come from an enemy? The bible says we should save life at all cost.
Now who is Ni Fru’s enemy is it CPDM or the government?
How and where do the government gets it revenues from?
Are all of us not entitled to these benefits? When is your turn abandon it boy and keep ur mouth short. Allow this man to mourn his beloved wife in peace.
Ni Fru no matter what happen we are still behind you for u have open our eyes to see and see well although some of us like mukate are still leaving in the dark.
May her soul rest in peace. May the good Lord find a place for her in his kingdom.
Ma Rose I think we are ready to win the battle now to save Cameroon. As Ni is fighting here on earth who knows you fight above so that we all will be librated and Mukate also enjoy from this liberty

"If some wild species of Cameroonians want us to believe that we can still have sexual intercourse with the devil if circumstances permit, then I would like to tell that the child resulting from such an intercourse is going to carry the devil`s genes and blood.
NI JOHN FRU NDI HAS FLIRTED WITH CPDM OFFICIALS and, UNFORTUNATELY, USING HIS WIFE AS THE BED. HE SHOULD BE ADEQUATELY PREPARED TO RECEIVED A NEW-BORN BABY. THAT IS ALL!"
Inspiring quotations!
Mr. Mukete, only fools will refuse the fact that your have a clear case against Ni John Fru. You have exhausted all the points and facts. Those who want to challenge you have to begin by answering the tons of questions you have asked. We are proud to have you in this forum. You are an eye opener. You are inspiring!Cameroon can only develop through the lens you want us to look through. Keep the Internet hot! Go on! Give us your spiritual food!

Fru Ndi na Fayman. Just like all the people living in Camerooon who were born during the colonial times. When they all pass away, Cameroon might hope for a better future. But as long as they still believe the real things are to be done by the whiteman, then they suffer from imperialism and will never learn. WHY DON'T THEY BUILD HOSPITALS IN CAMEROON TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN? Imperialism di worry them.
Since Fru NDi came to power, he has become a better man than he was as a bookseller, while cameroon as a country has moved from BAD TO WORSE. I have just these questions for him. MR CHAIRMAN, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR CAMEROON? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR YOURSELF? IF YOU LOOK BACK AT YOUR POLITICAL CAREER, WILL YOU TURN AROUND AND SAY "I DID A GREAT JOB?" IF YOU TURN AROUND AND LOOK AT YOUR PRIVATE LIFE, WILL YOU SAY I DID SOMETHING GREAT FOR MYSELF? IF he can answer them sincerely, then that will be enough or else we don't have to be talking about them They don't deserve our attention. We don dash dem Cameroon, let them drag the country to the rock bottom and then die one after the other, good help their souls, we shall rejoice. After that, the real people will take over, and we shall bring that country back to where it deserves to be. NONSENSE. WHAT A DISGRACE AND DISPLAY OF EGOISTIC HUMAN BEINGS

You beef, take youself there for rehabilitation. You need some medical care.
My personal diagnosis of you: A man mad at the world related to his unfulfilled childhood development.
Did you say you will be going to bamenda? What for? Na langa di carry you go or na say you want throw we off as to whosigh you dey?
Judas Iscariot, when you die, make sure say you send me invitation. I only pray you get educated before you die.
Peace, LOVE
