Unveiling Tomorrow's Cameroon Through Today's News

Breaking

According to information published by the Cameroon daily, Mutations in its May 22 edition, two SDF Mayors from Bamenda, played Judas Iscariot to their Chairman’s call to boycott the National reunification celebration.

On the day of the celebration, the two were seen sitting at the tribune together with other humble servants of La Republic, watching and cheering those who were marching, mostly comprised of the military, social groups and citizens suspected to have been hired, as only few schools partook in the activities.

The names of the two Mayors were gotten as, Fidelis Balick Awa of the Bamenda II municipality and Cletus Fongu of the Bamenda III council.

It irks the SDF party militants to note that despite the fact that the party did not take part in the 20th May feast in Bamenda if not the nation as a whole, some two individuals chose to dissuade themselves from honouring the National Chairman’s call.

This is a call which Ni John Fru Ndi reiterated in a communiqué which he signed on the 7th May 2017. It was made clear that the locked up southern Cameroonians must be released, federalism looked into, and a forum for genuine dialogue set, for discussions about the revisions that need to made in the constitution, before they could consider participating in the 20th May celebration.

It is believed that the message touched every nook and cranny of the National triangle, so there is no tangible reason, the two perverts of the SDF can give to justify their disobedience.

Notwithstanding, a worker of the Bamenda II council in trying to justify the mayors’ involvement in the activities, explained that, “a mayor is part and parcel of everything that has to do with their community. He is an authority. That’s why you saw them in civilian wears and not party uniforms”.
