CAMEROON: THE CPDM-PCC UNHOLY ALLIANCE OF OPPRESSION AND CORRUPTION: When the church has lost her voice as the conscience of the State:CPDM - PCC Synod Regime in Cameroon





My fellow Cameroonians




My fellow Presbyterians


My fellow Christian brothers and sisters of the Christian Church


Members of the International community


The Church officials must not make friends with government officials who oppress the people except they are also oppressors because "birds of the same feather flog together"




Foreigners running the government and the church while committing crimes against the innocent citizens of Cameroon. These foreigners are Cameroonians both in the government and the church who became American citizens but continue to hold positions of responsibilities in our beloved country for the wrong reasons. They are violating the US laws and must be brought to justice as soon as possible.




They run the church and government like a private plantation. They steal , embezzle and exploit the christians as well as misappropriate church and State funds into foreign bank accounts for their children living overseas. These PCC Synod officials are some rare thieves who have never accounted for their ill-gotten wealth. They hide behind the CPDM regime in order to get away with their corruption by going after any Pastor or Christian who speaks up ! Their names will be written on their graves and tombs for their roles in aiding and abetting criminal crimes against the people of Cameroon. They hide behind the bible to steal from the poor while enriching themselves !




If we think about the role of the church during the Nazis, apartheid, slavery, racial segregation,Berlin Wall, genocide in Rwanda and more, one will understand why I am x-raying the dangerous entente between the CPDM regime of Cameroon and the Synod of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon( PCC).The CPDM has tormented the PCC Synod with their demons to the extent,which Synod Officials are like toys in the hands of the CPDM officials who do everything to pass through CPDM people within the PCC Synod to crack down on Pastors and Christians who stand for truth, justice and freedom for all Cameroonians.


I am speaking out because I want to educate the US Congress on this conspiracy between the CPDM regime and PCC Synod against the backdrop of " Entrenched Leadership in Africa with the case of Cameroon". The US Congress implies the PC(USA) as well.


In fact, we cannot fully examine the roots causes of entrenched leadership in Africa without x-raying the lurking entente that exist between the State and the Church with the sole aim to control, manipulate and enslave God's people.I believe that the intentions of the missionaries who came with Christianity to our shores was not to use the gospel to manipulate, brainwash and mislead the people of Africa. That is why I have also articulated a political theology of freedom for Africa in a bid to set the records straight. I want to expose these PCC Synod officials to the world because every society where people of God perpetrate some form of evil or injustice against the people must be exposed and held to account.


A brief understanding of the CPDM-PCC Synod conspiracy to persecute and crack down on Pastors and Christians of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon. CPDM stands for Cameroon Peoples' Democratic Movement while PCC stands for Presbyterian Church in Cameroon.


This brief understanding is necessary because I have made up my mind to file a complaint against American citizens who have hijacked either the government of Cameroon or PCC very much so in gross violation of the US laws


I see the PCC Synod like the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah in denial ,which was always boasting to be waxing strong in spite of their obvious moral and spiritual decadence ,which eventually let to their spiritual downfall.No doubt the PCC Synod as a church leaders have lost their voice as the conscience of the State and as a voice for the voiceless.


The horrible abuses and gross violations within the PCC against Christians and Pastors has long been perpetrated by agents of the CPDM regime who sit within the Synod Office passing ungodly and inhuman laws motivated by their disconnect from the mission of the church on earth.


These manipulative and greedy Synod officials see any Christian and Pastor rooted into their calling or ministry as a threat to their business and capitalistic agenda to loot and steal from the resources of the church as well as misappropriate mission funds meant for the commongood. Yes, for years these Synod officials kind of feel that the PCC is their private plantation where they exploit, abuse and oppress Christians hiding behind the CPDM regime to crack down on decent people who care about the moral and spiritual life of God's people.


Shortly after the corrupt CPDM regime banned one Nigeria Pastor who heals through miraculous prayers, their immediate focus was on the PCC. This is the statement regarding the banning of Pastor Prophet TB Joshua from Cameroon because of his miraculous- healing prayers. Therefore the dismissal of Rev Warah Solomon and Rev Fokam is no surprise since this is all masterminded by the CPDM regime as usual.


"PROPHET TEMITOPE BALOGUN JOSHUA
The Cameroonian government has blacklisted Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, saying that he is an agent of Satan hoodwinking unsuspecting members of the public with "diabolical miracles". Cameroon Foreign Affairs Minister, Mr. Henri Eyebe Ayissi, in an official communiqué he issued this week titled "The Devil Is In the House", described T.B. Joshua as a "son of the devil" pretending to be "a man of God" . The Minister warned hundreds of Cameroonians trooping to Lagos, South West Nigeria, for miracles in Joshua's church, to desist from taking the trip or face the consequences as the country will not stand by them"


"Rev Warah Solomon and Rev Fokam" are both victims of a long standing conspiracy between the CPDM regime and the Rev Dr Nyansa-ni-Nku in collaboartion with his pro-CPDM regime Synod Committee members to perpetrate the whims and caprices of the CPDM regime against God's people. For more than 30 years Nyansan-ni-Nku embraced the corrupt CPDM regime making bold and outrageous friendships with CPDM big wigs in order to protect his own unbriddled materialistic conquest of the PCC that the CPDM regime backed him to run the PCC like a private plantation.


Rev Dr Nyansa-ni-Nku who was not a Cameroonian citizen when he hijacked the position of Moderator was never honest before the US government nor Cameroon Presbyterian about his newly acquired US citizenship through the DV-D Green card lottery through ,which his entire children relocated to the US . Under US laws he was not supposed to hold any position of responsibility inside the PCC or Government of Cameroon except he was performing such a function as an employee of the PC(USA) or US government.


By all account it is clear that there are crimes that have been committed against the Chrisians and people of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon by a foreigner in the person of Rev Dr Nyansa-ni-Nku who conspires with the CPDM regime to violates the human rights of Pastors and Christians whom the CPDM consider a threat to their regime. Shortly after his reign of terrorizing Pastors and Christians was over about three years ago , they handpegged the Rev Dr Festus Asana as Moderator to continue with the CPDM-PCC Synod policy of cracking down and persecuting any Pastor or Christian that indulges in theological as well as Christians practices that pose a serious threat to their evil CPDM empire.


The current Moderator of the said PCC , Rev Dr Festus Asana studied within the United States of America but like most Africans , when they return to Africa, instead of applying the knowledge they studied in order to change the lives of the people, these privileged class of Cameroonians with prestigious degrees from foreign Universities and other professional institutions tend to condone the political system of oppression through totalitarian corrupt tyranny and dictatorship.


While not everyone is like some of these individuals, a few who do their most to contribute constructively towards building a virtuous and free society are unfairly targeted by the entrenched leadership of the CPDM regime. It is therefore, very crucial for this matter be viewed from all angles in order to hold the perpetrators accountable.


Thank you for your interest. Pass it on

REBUTTALS ON CAMEROON POLITICAL SAGA THROUGH THE REFLECTIONS OF UNCLE PETER ESSOKA , CAMEROON VETERAN JOURNALIST CONCURS WITH VIRTUOUS AND FREE PRINCIPLES/VALUES: " FLIES THAT DON'T LISTEN TO ADVICE FOLLOW THE CORPS TO THE GRAVE


Mr Peter Essoka's reflections can be found at end of this page following the rebuttals of Msjoe Evelyn and Jonathan Awasom.



My fellow Cameroonians
My concerned citizens
Members of the International Community

No other adage could be more relevant and applicable than the one ,which says that " a fly that does not listen to advice follows the corps to the grave. What a powerful and compelling adage ,which fits squarely with what happens 24/7 with those Cameroonians at home and within the Diaspora who never listen to advice.

You see how the traitors are now going after Mr Peter Essoka? They want to silent the truth at all cost with their usual manoevres and manipulations, spining and twisting the truth well articulated by a humble man.

The political confessions of Marafa and Mr Peter Essoka are just the few among many still to come!This is perhaps one of the greatest achievements of a ceaseless advocacy against this CPDM system that continues to fund/finance some  Cameroonians like  kenneth Fru Ndeh, DJ Eric, Larry Eyong Echaw, Dr Peter Igwacho, Mishe Fon, Mukoi Elkanah to attack , insult and slander. Quite apart from the regular CPDM long list of blind followers to the CPDM system like Jackson Nanje, Jude Okafor, Lady Kate Njueuma , Sam Esale,Joe Mbu , Dr Konde Emmanuel, there the other ones are the actual  surrogates of the system who are given some financial compensations  to publish as much nasty and slanderous stuff against people who exposed the wrongs of the system even before Marafa began his crusade of political confessions.

Mr  Peter Essoka is simply re-echoing what we have said before! Why did Marafa not publish his letters when the time was ripe, that is when he was still eating and fattening himself from the system? Why only now? He was quiet because like the other elephants of the CPDM system, it did not matter to them on what grass they were lying on with their weight of injustice and oppression.

When a criminal enterprise has committed serious crimes against humanity with many families suffering till date because of their evil ways,  those who employ manipulative adages like "better late than never" must be considered the defender of perpetrators of injustice and violation of our laws. Too often those who sit on the fence point fingers at those who muster the courage to call a spade a spade. Bravo to Mr Peter Essoka  for reminding  all those who regrope in the dark that virtue still has a place in our society ! We see that everyday.

Therefore,Mr Peter Essoka is not meadering or pretending.  He is exposing the hypocrisy of Cameroonians who want to eat on both sides of the fence. They cannot have it both ways. Injustice  is injustice and individual accountability counts in this case where there is a growing sense of insecurity within the inner cycles of the CPDM ruling junta in Cameroon and around the world

In fact, it is the likes of Msjoe Evelyn and their CPDM clique around Washington, DC  who glorify mediocrity within the rank and file of the CPDM junta! People who play for convenience and expediency waiting to jump from the fence of neutrality! No other truth is more correct than one spoken by an insider against the system that they once adore and worshiped. 

The CPDM embassy in Washington, DC has corrupted and brainwashed most Cameroonians paying them to slander and insult Cameroonians who decried and castigated this system for years! While all these was going on  many of them from the Diaspora condoned and some of them were heavily financed to fight for the system! So, please, these CPDM surrogates cannot fool us again. They can spin and twist on the bitter truth that Mr Peter Essoka is spitting out like fire of lamentation, a true political confession that can lead to repentance . 

Everyone of us , Cameroonians MUST cross-examine ourselves as well as our role in aiding and abetting the system in Cameroon. In fact, I mean everyone of us including those who like to REACT to the true confessions of others. Rather than trying to school one about who Mr Essoka is or is not, what has been your role in perpetrating the system ?

The CPDM system did not have to be exposed by Mr Marafa. In fact, in the Marafa's selling after the market, we see what happens when a fly that does not listen to advice follows the corps to the grave! What is Marafa saying that we have not said?  

Marafa was only REACTING to a forgone conclusion after I had EXPOSED and X-RAYED the SYSTEM to the world. When  I  was decrying this SYSTEM to the world Marafa was very well aware just as the Cameroon Ambassador to the USA. They  thought I was joking until they were caught pants down! 

It is enormous pressure that came to bear before such powerful men like Marafa who once saw themselves as INVINCIBLE and INFALLIBLE  are learning the HARD LESSONS of life! God is the the mighty and invincible , and not mere human beings we are

Mr Peter Essoka does not  have to be meadering by any stretch of wondering what he might have been saying because what he is saying is transcidental . This is one of the finest analytical and investigative journalists around. As a journalist I believe that his  take on this  with soul searching questions are very compelling! 

While like most Cameroonians, he has worked and lived within the system, his point is the system has no mercy for anyone including himself, Marafa and Paul Biya whom he figuratively describes as Nebuchanezzar.I think that his letter is clean and clear.I know Mr Peter Essoka in person .

I do not doubt his honesty .The message is " how the mighty are fallen" and who is save within the system.So, why do some of of these Cameroonians take bribes from the system to slander and insult genuine Cameroonians who are doing their best to change the system Msjoe Evelyn? Can any of you regroping in the dark explain to Cameroonians why some of you are so desperately defending the CPDM system and why all of you in your DC gang condone ?

Mr Peter Essoka is on track and his letter is very consoling and encouraging because it is true.One of the best ways to change a system is to create an internal bleeding ! Let  the system bleed to death.God is great and to God be the Glory. LEAVE MR PETER ESSOKA ALONE and I have good advice to all of you regroping in dark, a FLY THAT DOES NOT LISTEN TO ADVICE FOLLOWS THE CORPS TO THE GRAVE

With the meanderings from Peter Esoka, which God do lesser citizens defy - Biya? Who bestows and takes away invincibility - Biya?

Peter Essoka is being clever by half in his thinly veiled tolerance for this defective system. Granted, a drowning man will try to save his skin, the crucial point is whether the claims are true or not; not the belatedness of  revelations. He quotes Nebuchadnezzar, does he also know the adage:Better late than never? And who is this God to be obeyed?
The underlying message in Peter Essoka's reflection is: "once you chop, you wipe your mouth and shut up for forever!"
Please choppers, you can scream anytime - before, in and after jail or never in jail.  As long as you are pinpointing the malfeasance, you are doing a favor to the country.
Not one to take a  liking in governmental issues in Cameroon (I prefer philanthropic contributions),this albatross affair opens the window to the callous impunity of the regime. Why would a president need a  plane, outfitted with all, including anti-missile devices,  under various schemes to fool the IMF? And this scheme came at the expense of what since the country was undergoing financial austerity measures under the Heavily Indebted Poor Country provisions?
The salient points are often clouded. Biya looks like a common crook - if you ask more International observers.
How many hospitals and dilapidated clinics lack basic necessities, how many patient died deprived of primary care so that Biya can fly luxuriously? How rampant is this plain impunity?  For the hard working market women who enable economies,  for the working poor who rise and toil from dawn to dusk, for the down on their luck, we can do better by them.
People, these are the more consequential ramifications; not whether former power wielders spoke out late. And who is Peter Essoka referring to in his cattle and goat eating grass metaphor? The common citizens? Is it a wonder the civil society can easily be brought to its knees when intellectuals and public opinion molders aim at nonsense while dodging the greater consequences?
No political novice should come here with  bla bla bla USAID returned to Cameroon. It is not a clean bill on health. It is a foreign policy incentive - surely in return for something - give US companies leeways, Africom exchange, etc.
.
People sorry, I don't like commenting on Cameroon political issues.  But no Peter Essoka, one man cannot be the president for how many years - with no accountability and you think he should be believed.  When he vexes, head roll; when he is happy, pomp and pageantry take hold.
What?
MsJoe

CAMEROON’S POLITICAL SAGA
11 June 2012
By Peter ESSOKA
There are so many serious things being talked about these days - things that are raising eye brows. Politicians are mounting their soap boxes in defence of one issue or the other, the major one these days being the Marafa letters from jail. The whole thing has become such a jumble. It is difficult to really pinpoint what the hullabaloo is all about.
The whole Marafa issue to me reflects our political thinking; in fact it reflects us as a people. We seem always to grope in the dark searching for monkeys amongst goats. Then each one starts looking for reasons or the actual raison d’être for what has befallen us. But when we look carefully at the trends, especially the arguments that one hears, one may conclude rightly or wrongly that there is a lot of personal interest in what people say or do.
Now take Marafa. What is the rational behind the letter writing? Why now when he had every opportunity in his heydays to denounce the wrongs he saw within the system despite warnings from the opposition? For personal reasons and particularly reasons of profitability he condoned with wrong and wallowed in the splendour of being at the top of things. He masterminded some of the things that had to keep the status quo, things he seems to condemn today because the advantage is no longer his. Advantage out as would say in tennis.
True, there are some revelations he has been making and one would think these are desperate tactics any drowning person would apply to save himself from taking the last gulp of water before life’s chapter closes. Is he succeeding? Whether we want to accept it or not, many people on the sidelines are buying his manoeuvres. Many others however, are also asking whether silence could not have been proper for a gentleman he seems to have been.
Generally, the political trend in this country is confusing and the citizenry is always asking whither Cameroon and its breed of politicians? What are we exposing to the world?
The party to which Mr Marafa belongs is asking what has become of one of their very highly placed militant. Government ministers in trying to have a response to such a question are parading the screens and trying to give reasons why nothing Marafa says is of any valid consequence. So what next?
Why did we have to get to this? Could this issue not be settled long before we got to the stage? For many years there have been talks of misappropriation and the siphoning of money aimed at purchasing a Presidential plane. The same people involved were revered by us as being some “grand commis de l’état” if I should use the French expression. They are catapulted to the top of things and they wielded enormous power. Nothing seems to bother them because they commanded the confidence of the powers that be. The question now is, what suddenly happened that the balloon was so easily deflated that these people seem to have so quickly run from the grace they enjoyed to the grass they now seem to be chewing with ordinary goats and cattle?
You remember the story of Nebuchadnezzar how powerful he was as the Babylonian king. He defied God with all imprudence and impunity. You know where he ended, right? He became like an animal and had to eat the foliage around him. The mighty had fallen.
Why give people so much confidence, especially those of the inner circle and then just discard them or junked them like garbage? They are whisked into some detention camps as though judgement had been summarily been passed on them. It can be frustrating to consider yourself a prisoner and then join the privileges, if privileges they be, of ‘prisonhood’.
Marafa is only voicing out such frustration especially we are aware that many others like him who detected the pace this country operated are behind the bars. So who is safe in the regime? If such close aides to power can be made to be so powerless, why do some people arrogate invincibility? The system is without pity, no matter who you think you are or have been.
The Ondong Ndongs, Edzoas, Mebaras, Marafas, Abah Abahs, the Adamas, the Abenas, and even Inonis and others are in there, whether justly or not.
The system seems to be no respecter of persons and no one is excluded from its grips when it means to be mean.
So watch your footsteps. You may just be the next victim because the angel of death is hovering from door to door and if you are not cleansed by the blood of the lamb, your fate is certain

GROSS IGNORANCE AND INJUSTICE: PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN CAMEROON SYNOD ARBITRARILY DISMISSES TWO PASTORS, VIOLATES THEIR THEOLOGICAL, SPIRITUAL AND HUMAN/CIVIL RIGHTS OVER FREE SPEECH IN CHURCH AND SOCIETY




To all Presbyterian Christians of the 
Presbyterian Church in Cameroon and all concerns  people of the Christian Church 


My first Protest letter against the dismissal of two Presbyterian Pastors by the Synod of the Presbyterian Church over free speech .

The names of the two Pastors are Rev Warah Solomon and Rev Fokam . I have not contacted them , yet but reliable sources have confirmed with me that the PCC is divided into two camps right now over this matter as a painful reminder of the past! 

  • Arbitrary dismissal of Pastors and Christians by the PCC Synod is mark of gross ignorance and denial. 
  • The two Pastors who have been recently dismissed from the PCC by the corrupt Synod be reinstated immediately !
  • A special commission of inquiry must be created to cross-examine the problem. 
  • All Christians of the PCC and sympathizers in good conscience and faith must stand up to Protest against that corrupt Synod until the truth and justice prevail
  • Dogmatic Synod officials who orchestrated these gross acts of violation of the human rights of these Pastors to free speech should be brought to justice  and disciplined accordingly. We must stop this autocratic mentality among some of these Synod individuals
  • The Synod of the PCC must publish the name of Synod officials and members past and present who are American citizens
  • All Christians of the PCC who support church reforms and the Ministries of prayers and spiritual healing through divine miracles must not bow to those Synod Officials
  • All PCC Synod officials MUST be obliged to declare their assets under the laws of Cameroon and International laws because the church is run like a business ,which is the more reason why some few corrupt business individuals hate church reforms


THE  PCC SYNOD WILL BE INVESTIGATED FOR THEIR CONSTANT PERSECUTION AND VIOLATION OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS OF PASTORS AND CHRISTIANS WHO DISAGREE WITH THEM



The Presbyterian Church in Cameroon was an outcome of the Protestant reformation of Rev Dr Martin Luther, the Reformer  during the 15th century. In the wake of the the divine and historic unfolding of the reformation , Presbyterianism became just one theological  school of thought within the realm of the reformation to represent another set of Protestants who did not buy into the Roman Catholic Church dogma of Papal Infallibility and the Sales of Indulgences! 

In this light, the PCC is a branch of Presbyterian movement ,which was established in Cameroon by the Basel Missionaries based in Basel in Switzerland. The relationship between Basel and the PCC was shaken to its core due to the injustice of the Synod against the 100 theses. Today, the Presbyterian Church,USA is in working partnership with the PCC since 2005 after learning about  the 100 theses from my humble self while in Minneapolis, USA.

I will back two Pastors arbitrarily dismissed in keeping with the authority of the word of God as recorded in the Holy Bible as well as the Magna Carta. I am still waiting for the facts as well as an official letter from the victims to advocate for them for the following reasons;

1) The ruber stamp corrupt Synod of the PCC are not above the rule of God's word as written when it comes to matters of faith and the experience of this faith in the ministry of discipleship

2) The Moderator of the PCC is first among equals and cannot be glorified as demi-god or an infallible being who has no human weaknesses

3) When Pastors are ordained, they are answerable to  both the constitution of the PCC and the authority of the word of God.

4) In the event of any decision to either discipline or counsel any Pastor, the PCC officials are expected to  obligatorily comply with the guidelines as enshrined into the constitution of the PCC as well as the written authoritative word of God

5) This means that each Pastor of the reformed Protestant PCC has the sole right to think theologically and act spiritually within their community of ministry so long as their actions do not contradict the teachings of the Jesus Christ and the apostles with regards to matters of healing and prayers 

6) The Synod of the PCC are made up  of human beings with their own flaws and must therefore not carry themselves as infallible and  incapable of wrong doing . It is not the fault of Christians if they fail to discern spiritual matters of grave importance to the spiritual well-being of the Christians. This PCC Synod  must begin to reform their mentalities because we live in an age of theological diversity and spiritual solidarity,which means that there is nothing like every practice must be uniquely Presbyterian! To narrow and limit the spiritual expression of ordained Pastors and Christians is to say the least that the Synod is the one controling the way the Holy Trinity operates in the Church and lives of Pastors and Christians as opposed to discerning the proper revelation of the Trinity to the church through some Pastors and Christians

God is a human right God who cares about the church as the Body of Christ.
Jesus Christ being the son of the God who became incarnate and entered into a human being through the virgin birth in a bid to save the world from their sinful and painful separation from God is the head of  the church. All Pastors and Christians of  the church are ordained  or baptized in the name of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit who directs the affairs of the Church from a profound spiritual standpoint.

It should be noted that this same PCC Synod that is hostile toward church reforms acted in the same manner against myself , Jonathan Awasom whereas 100 theses were not grounded in their claims about what ought to be Presbyterianism or unpresbterianism as in the case of these two Pastors.Even so, the Presbyterianism has never been against the ministry of healing .So, why does a group of people dismiss Pastors for healing Christians through prayers?

In other words the uninformed Synod argued that the Ministry of healing Christians miraculously is unpresbyterian to the extent, which when these two Pastors insisted on their theological, human and spiritual right to defend themselves, they dogmatic Synod would not permit them to do so. Instead their dismissal was precipitated against the backdrop of fabricated conspiracies of slander and lies as usual.

The PCC Synod MUST reinstate the two Pastors dismissed immediately or face the consequences of their actions internationally

THE MAGNA CARTA(GREAT CHARTER FOR FREEDOM) FOR CAMEROON AND AFRICA: A NEW POLITICAL FUTURE



Part One 

The historical origin and  meaning of "Magna Carta",which means (Great Charter for Freedom)


My fellow Human beings
My fellow Cameroonians
My fellow Africans
My fellow Citizens of the free world
My honorable members of the Civil Society
My respected members of the U.S Congress of free people 


When I wrote the Manifesto for the freedom of Cameroon in 2010, I thought it was a more complex document meant for the wise interpretation of  astute scholars like  Educators, Theologians, Scientists,Sociologists,Anthroplogists, Political Scientists, Lawyers and Historians than for every other person. 

As I continue to espouse the objectives of a virtuous and free Cameroon as well as the 10 summaries of a virtuous and free Cameroon( remember these are three different ways to capture the nature of a new  political freedom of Cameroon under the yoke of corrupt tyranny and dictatorship), I also wanted to define this freedom in more practical ways.

By breaking down the notion of freedom in simple terms to be called the great charter for freedom , it is my hope that this will inspire a curriculum for teaching as well as encourage it to be posted everywhere in the society; homes, streets,public buildings, schools, offices and business places. 

Cameroonians and Africans must be taught the subject of freedom because corrupt tyranny and dictatorship has taken a huge toll on them so much so that children born today are still suffering from the effects of this kind of bad political system.

On June 15th,1215 the Magna Carta came to fruition under the leadership of King John. It stemmed from the believe that humans had natural rights from birth but these rights had to be made to become law. Therefore, the Magna Carta guaranteed the protection of certain human rights by the rule of law in order to ensure that there was equality and justice within the sovereignty under the king. 

It argued very legally that the king was king as "first among
equals"(subjects or citizens) but must in no way be above the rule of law. According to this radical way of thinking only a tyrant and dictator like Mr Paul Biya of Cameroon would consider themselves above the rule of law within a given sovereign country or kingdom. 

The Magna Carta also opened a new chapter in the right of citizens under the king by instituting that the citizen would never be arbitrarily arrested and jailed illegally without being judged and represented under law by their qualified peers. 

The Magna Carta was a powerful political idea whose time came during the 12th century to prevent the political tsunami of corrupt tyranny and dictatorship , which had no respect for life and the rule of law among British Monarchs. It can be said that the Magna Carta was like a kind of unprecedented  political fire that ignited a new way of appreciating and valuing the place of all human beings born free into this world. 

The truth is only honest and wise people were capable to discover the moral essence of the Magna Carter in order to learn from it with the hope to improve upon their own moral failings or to chart a new course of human dignity for their people. 

It is no surprise to me today that we have some leaders around the world absolutely blind or completely oblivious  to the knowledge and information about the Magna Carta. Imagine the fact that the Magna Carta,which originated from the British Monarch  inspired and empowered the Founders of the U.S. Constitution during the 17th century. This was about  5 centuries after it was founded in the 12th century.

In some of my writings about virtuous and free society, I have been very inspired from birth to articulate a modern human and civil rights political freedom for Cameroon and Africa. For a while , some people wanted to know from where I have drawn my inspiration about human rights with passionate conviction ! 

Although, I  do operate from the premise that as a human being I ought to be entitled to the whole notion about the origin of my life and how to go about it without being obstructed or hindered by another human being whose own life is owed to the same set of expectations that I yearn for, one must pay tribute to the power of history. 

I am hereby referring to those Cameroonian and African powerful people who mistakenly think that by their own selfish existence in Cameroon and within Africa, they are more entitled to the life that all are deserving as fellow human beings than the rest of the Cameroon and African people. 

These are my fellow Cameroonian and African citizens whose human and civil rights are grossly  violated and their freedom and liberties trampled  by those corrupt tyrants and dictators in Cameroon and
Africa.

Why must I pay tribute to history? History is an instrument to combat ignorance because history contend a wealth of information and knowledge we need to guide us  better navigate the present and future. 

The study of history provide clues to a moral conscious person on how to deal with the past merits and demerits with respect to his or her desire to re-make or recreate a new society so that the failures of the past may be avoided or prevented.  

Even before I came to the absolute understanding that I ought to "speak up, speak about freedom and rights", in this case, as a voice for the voiceless, as an advocate for those who are powerless, oppressed and deprived of their freedoms and rights, it was because the idea about freedom and rights was long engraved into my mind set/psyche to the extent ,which it once began to inform the way that I think, perceive and act under corrupt tyranny and
dictatorship inside Cameroon society.

One has to be born into oppression in order to understand the essence of freedom and then be driven to fight for freedom with all your mind, spirit soul and strength.

According to Laura Hitt, the Editor of " Human Rights, Great Speeches  in History" , one of the first documents to recognize  the concept that human had innate rights was the MAGNA CARTA. So, what was the Magna Carta? The Magna Carta was "the great charter of the English political and civil liberties granted by King King John at Runnymede on June 15,1215. By issuing the Charter King John placed himself and all of England's future sovereigns under the rule  of law. For example kings and Magistrates could no longer imprison people arbitrarily;they had to guarantee each person who was arrested fair trial. The Charter guarantees that " no freeman shall be taken, imprisoned,..or in any other way destroyed...except by the lawful judgement of his peers,or by the law of the land." The Magna Carta has served as a model for political leaders-such as the founders of the U.S. Constitution-seeking to establish a law code that guarantees citizens' basic
rights"
