The miscalculation of war by Biya and its far reaching economic and political consequences for his ebbing regime.

President Paul Biya has made two damaging declarations of war against Boko Haram insurgents and the second declaration against the people of British Southern Cameroon's.
Both wars have rocked and shaken this nation like a ship baffled by life threatening storms. 
Wars aren't declared in a hurray or in s rush. Before any war us declared, the Generals and the President sit to asses the level of preparedness both financially, materially and level of preparedness of the soldiers and their equipment that can guarantee successes and victories in the battle field. 
Wars must be sustainable if they are to be declared. The situation on the ground in Manyu that talks about absconding soldiers fleeing combat and the casualties makes observes to conclude that the declaration was a false pass that the regime is regretting and lamenting about such a hasty decision.
Wars are a wasteful way in resolving conflicts and disagreements. The dialogue table is the cheapest pattern of resolving conflicts and managing crisis of any magnitude.
Today the fall outs of this declaration of war by the head of State of LA Republique Du Cameroun shall forever haunt LA Republique Du Cameroun.
