Cameroon: Student dares Bello Bouba over Anglophone Crisis

A form five student of Government Bilingual High School (GBHS) Kosala in Kumba, Meme Division of the South West Region, has challenged the President of the National Union for Democracy and Progress (NUDP), Bello Bouba Maigari, on the Anglophone Crisis.

The student, Chelsea Bessem Ntui, challenged the NUDP National Chairman to use his political alliance as part of the Presidential majority of the Biya regime to end the protracted Anglophone Crisis.

The challenge is contained in an open letter  Bessem Ntui, wrote to Bello Bouba through the Youth President, Elvis Ndasi Noukam.

Noukam was in Kumba to oversee the election of the party’s section executive.

According to Bessem, the damage caused by the ongoing crisis on the young people is immeasurable.

''Some of our elder sisters are now pregnant, our elder brothers have engaged themselves in unhealthy social acts leading them to police cells,'' she said.

Bessem further asserted that ''we shall hold all political party leaders in our country responsible, if our future is put in jeopardy.

As a major political party leader of this nation, who is the architect of the 1996 Constitution and who has contracted a political platform with the CPDM led Government, we do believe that you stand in a better position to help solve this ongoing crisis in the Northwest and Southwest Regions. We do plead with you Mr. President  that sincerely  you should serve as a bridge between the protesters and the CPDM Government to find lasting solution to the ongoing crisis before September for effective school resumption,'' the letter further reads.
