THE FORGOTTEN TRUTH BY TIMES MAGAZINE: THE PROTESTER GRADUATED FROM THE PROTESTANT FACULTY OF THEOLOGY, YAOUNDE ,CAMEROON

My fellow Cameroonians and members of the civilized civil society and international community  


THE FORGOTTEN TRUTH BY TIMES MAGAZINE: FACTS FROM FICTION

When the famous TIMES MAGAZINE came out and announced that 2011  was dedicated by their renowned magazine to the PROTESTER around the world, it   was very obscure and ambivalent.Consequently, I decided that I will called for PROTEST from myself because I started my protest since 1999 and it is not factual that 2011 is the only time that protesters suddenly have become noticeable. That is why I want facts to be separated from fiction with respect to the forgotten truth by TIMES MAGAZINE.

May be TIMES MAGAZINE had nothing to offer at the time when reporting without the facts and truth was at its lowest point in history granted that truth  was almost swept under the rugs by subjective reporting. Here below are the facts ,which are subject to verification and investigation particularly owing to the impact that these series of protests have had on the lives of millions of people beginning in Cameroon and now within the USA , where I am currently resident and have influenced both public and foreign policies at the level of the church and government  both locally and  internationally. You can also click on  my blog  to download the full article, too if you wish.Also remember that right now I have 126 protest letters, memos and articles published on this blog ,which speaks volume about the unprecedented nature of this protest since 1999 till date.

Blog:  http://virtuousandfreecameroon.blogspot.com/ It was in June,1995 when I graduated from the PROTESTANT FACULTY OF THEOLOGY IN, YAOUNDE, CAMEROON  four years after I became a real pragmatic protester against corruption, injustice, oppression  and corrupt tyranny in Cameroon. So, I want to state my case very clearly When history is distorted and facts twisted, truth tampered with, we defeat the essence of professionalism and the search for truth and  justice. I still recall with much frustration how I was arrested by the Edina Police in the USA, 2007 and locked up  on two different occasions for Protesting against  racial discrimination, racial injustice and the unecessary genocide in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Goma under the watch of missionaries! My right to the first amendment was grossly violated simply because I had the audacity to speak truth to power and protested out of my conviction and believe in the univseral principles of human rights for all victims of injustice. Growing up in Cameroon, I constantly, noticed and observed some of these top high ranking church officials and politicians preaching to me a young boy  that Jesus loves us all, this they know for the bible tells us so while oppressing me in broad day light ! Then unfortunately for them, my eyes opened the day I was admitted at the PROTESTANT FACULTY OF THEOLOGY, NJOUNGOLO  in Yaounde where I spent 4 years of deep theological studies and began to discover the truth! I actually entered the Protestant Faculty of Theology to learn how to Protest and after I graudated in 1995 I began my protest in 199 till date. I began to protest against injustice, oppression and corruption when I was 29 years old in Cameroon around 1999. Why did I become a Protester since I was in Cameroon till this now? It was fate that set me up to study at the celebrated " PROTESTANT FACULTY OF THEOLOGY, YAOUNDE , CAMEROON where I had the privilege to study Protestant theology and ethics for 4 years. In order words  I was inspired by the name PROTESTANT because  it was very relevant in the context of our oppressive Cameroon society, which badly needed some major reforms. I had to protest against corruption inside the Churches first before also focusing on the corrupt CPDM regime. So, these are the different phases of my protest beginning from 1999; I published 100 theses to reform the Protestant Presbyterian Churches in Cameroon and behold it caught fire as many Christians especially women joined the revolution and supported the vision for Church reforms. Unfortunately, they were persecuted by the corrupt officials of the Synod of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon. In spite of  their resilience and determination to urge the Church officials to give me an opportunity to defend my writings, the Synod dismissed me and these women from the Church and as if that was  not enough, they conspired with the CPDM regime to stop me from speaking ! Then I left and came to the United States as a Religious Missionary from Novermber 1999 and continued with my protest( free speech)  up till now. Here are some facts about my continuous spirit of protests within the USA carried over from Cameroon  as follows; 2005 protest when I relaunched my protest to the Presbyterian Church ,USA involved in missionary work in Cameroon, 2006 protest to the White House and G-8 Summit, 2007 protest to the USA Presidential Candidates, 2008, protest to Christ Presbyterian Church, Edina, USA involved in missionary work in Goma-Congo where 45 thousand people were being killed every month at the time,  2009 protest to the Congress of the United States and the United States Government against the  dictatorship and corrupt tyranny  in Cameroon, In fact, an endless effort of courageous protests,which have culminated into advocacy, activism and cyber revolution against the corrupt CPDM regime of Cameroon up to the fake Presidential elections held in October,2011 and beyond. This protests, which have been around for the long time and inspired others  must have escaped the attention and notice of some people like the TIME MAGAZINE! History is about the study of facts and journalism is the ability to gather historical facts and analyse them through the lens of investigative truth. Let us get the facts straight about the Protester and when it all began! It is very Ironical that the top 1% corrupt elite in Cameroon who had failed to brainwsh me in  grammar school into believing that our plight in Cameroon and Africa was the fault of the White West are the main hijackers of the front pews in  almost all Protestant Churches in Cameroon from Yaounde, through,Douala, Bamenda, Kumba, Limbe, to Buea just to mention a few. Many of the oppressors actually believed that they , too believed in Jesus Christ and were entitled to the same grace and peace that he gives to everyone who is in a relationship with him! What I gathered from their insance rationale was that Jesus Christ would embrace both the oppressed and oppressors! Then each time I searched the holy scriptures, which the West introduced to my great grandparents, grandparents and parents, I discovered the real truth about what a Jesus Christ was really out to accomplish for the oppressed in Cameroon. When I was given the opportunity to preach from the pulpit of the elite Presbyterian Church, Bastos as a Student at the Protestant Faculty of Theology around 1994 bearly one year before I graduated, I remember that some of the folks on the front row of the pews were very uneasy with me but many of the  true followers of Jesus Christ walked up to me  days later and said to me, " we need you people in this church and this country, these are the kinds of Pastors we want in the Presbyterian Church and Cameroon...".  These words sank into my spirit and I never looked back again till date. Through out my life time , I have been inspired by the Protestant  theology of freedom and the Protestant ethics of liberation born out of liberal arts education that I have been blessed to tap into since I was in Cameroon. I insist that a virtuous and free Cameroon society must have its roots in the understanding of what God originally intended for the nation and people of Cameroon.Most importantly, I have also been galvinized  by the political freedom of the United States of America ,which has energized me more than ever before, 24/7, to believe that the freedom of Cameroonians who are oppressed is very inevitable and imminent. So, now you have to realize that there is a lot going on here; theology of freedom  inspired by the old and new testament studies of  the prophets and Jesus Christ , ethics of liberation inspired by liberal arts education and the political freedom of the United States of America inspired by the founding fathers of  the 13 colonies ,which were liberated from the colonial Britain. It means tracing back the disconnects from whence the nation was first founded by drawing from the  history of free people to illuminate our conscious determination along the path to enhance this understanding about the universal principles of human dignity without ,which a way forward remains obscure and gloomy! I believed as a young visionary citizen at the age of 29  that for Cameroon to become a virtuous and free world, the Church must first of all be reformed so that she would acquire the moral and spiritual capacity to  inspire or infleunce the much needed  socio-economic and political transformation that we need urgently in Cameroon. I have maintained this rare positive energy in the midst of every unpredictable storm  of persecution and retaliation because it is perhaps the last chance for our  survival and victory as a people under a unique multi-ethnic culture. My sincere desire has been to crave for a system of government that will honor our multi-ethnic culture and yet create a transparent condition under ,which we will function properly under the rule of laws by respecting  human and civil rights  as well as promoting the dignity of everyone who obeys these rules. If the church of the marginalized people of Cameroon, I mean  the true people held in perpetual bondage by the CPDM regime and party is not reactivated to be the normal voice  for the voiceless, then, we cannot deliver like the  church in South Africa against apartheid. In order for us to be like the Church of South Africa against apartheid and become the Protestant Church of  Cameroon against oppression of Cameroonians by the CPDM regime and Party we must come to terms with the contextual meaning of the story of protestantism in the light of the story of  the Cameroon Church . Any church or church body that is silent over injustice and evil, oppression and enslavement of God's people is not worth its salt in society and cannot be counted as a veritable tool for witness to truth to power. To explore the whole cre story entails that we must always have a rare experience of what we see,percieve, feel and touch.It is very normal for man to explore the universe with the hope to unravel the mystery that surrounds it but we must understand that it is the work of a revolutionary God carried out in a big way out of  sheer goodness and love. "31God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day"   Having said this,we should now understand why God created every other thing but realized that He had to create man( us, we  including male and female, masculin and feminine) in their own image to rule over all other creatures. This is very awesome because God on His freewill and infinite  providential power decided to empower us with the  earthly opportunity to rule over the rest of creation. This can only be an act of goodness and love for, which we must be exceedingly grateful and blessed. Listen to what the King James version text says; King James Bible : "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth" The word rule and dominion are used interchangeably to mean one and the samething in context. God wanted to make man incharge of creation to reflect His purpose  for every other creation according to the ten commandments( see ten commandments) We are blessed beyond measure to rule and dominate the assorted nature of creatures in the universe but the goal is to comply with the expectations set forth by God in terms of appropriate use of every creature whether for food or for relationship with one another. We must show love and care to God's creatures. Therefore, we must bear in mind that to rule or be dominion does not amount to CONTROL OUT OF SELFISH MOTIVES,  to place under BONDAGE,  to OPPRESS ,  to SUBDUE, to ENSLAVE AND  to SUBJUGATE! It is far from these various forms of abuses  because God gave man the same status of equality to work for Him as His servants without anyone trampling over the human rights of others within the universe. To rule or to be dominion is such a cool experience for those who respect the rule of laws ,which are agreed upon by the community , society, nation and the world. The rule of laws are NOT established to undermine God's laws and will  for humanity but to guide every other person to appreciate the sacred nature of life as well  as the noble place of everyone to have life in abundance to reflect God's will for them. In every bible studies we can use the QIA approach, which is QUESTION, INSIGHTS AND APPLICATION but that will be entirely up to those who want enhance their understanding of the text. For instance, you may ask a QUESTION ; who wrote the book of Genesis? Who does God refer to as " let us make man in our own image..."  INSIGHT;   Make man in our image to rule over all ...., God saw  all what he had made, and behold it was good..." APPLICATION:This text appeals to us as a people whom God made in His own image to rule over all the other creatures with goodness and love. What kind of creature are you?  A  singing creature or a dancing creature? A loving creature or a smiling creature? What makes you tick in this universe as a creature of God created in His own image? If you do not really know, why not and how do you see yourself as part of creation. Our duties in this life over God 's creation boils down to caretakers and  beneficiaries. We must embody the goodness and love of God  in all of our daily expressions in this life from all walks of life. Let us check ourselves out, I mean ,which of God's creatures do you not love and why not? Have you ever acknowledged the fact that you are a fellow man with your fellow man or you see yourself as a superior entity who cannot be equated with the other man? May be your stereotypes defeats the whole essence of creation by God! Do you think that your  negative form of thinking,which obviously translates into an attitude of  corruption, stealing, embezzlement, racism, slavery, apartheid, oppression, injustice and other forms of violations will be approved by God ? If No, what must you or we do to make sure that man is not working against himself  /herself ,themselves etc by alienating the same God who has blessed  them with creation? Do you supposed that God created Cameroon and endowed it with natural resources for all of us or you suppose that God created the natural resources only for some selected few to control it solely for their selfish interest? How do we see ourselves as Cameroonians in the light of the story of creation and God at the center of all these? What has gone wrong  with the story of Cameroon as God's creation? Do you think that God created many tribes and ethic groups in Cameroon for the right or wrong reasons , and  do you think that there are people who have been abusing the goodness and love of God? What must we do in order to take back God's creation from those who are abusing it? God blessed us with Cameroon so that we should take care of the land in ways that will benefit one another. God did not choose some people to hijack Cameroon and control it only for themselves while others are watching and gnashing their teeth in abject misery and poverty. God did not create you to control your spouse or children! God did not make you to cease people's land  or to deprive others from an atmosphere of productivity or one that inspires productivity. Think about why God made you in His own image before you continue to live. I hope you will take time to reflect over some of these questions. You don't have to provide the answers except to explore them in the light of God original purpose when he created us in His own image to rule over all other creatures/creation.   Jonathan Awasom  The voice for Cameroon, Africa and the world in the 21st century The Rally-cry for freedom, justice, peace ,democracy and prosperity for all Empowering humanity to build a virtuous and free world for the beloved global village Blog:  http://virtuousandfreecameroon.blogspot.com/

Dear Cameroonians and Stakeholders of the Republic of Cameroon Overcoming the Fear for Change: The psychology of Resistance of Change ! Why do people resist change? Is  it fear to fall or fear of vengence or fear of the unknown or fear of losing something?  May be they don't believe that anything needs change. It could be that they don't want chage even if they perceive that it is necessary. Why do people fear to bring about change?Well, they fear the Statusquo ,which is usually like a monster. May be we need to explore all these because we desperately need change agents right now.It has always happened and we cannot be an exception to the rule.We are capable now. Although I do not intend to jump start an intellectual debate over this subject, I have raised it because it was my sacred secret as I explore different ways on how we can listen to one another and heal our country from the wounds of history in order to move on. However, this will largely depend on oppressors and perpetuators of one form of abuse or another. Before we get to consider all these, the Constitution of that country, Cameroon is the political paramount document as far as I am concern. The terms ; Independence,Sovereignty, State, Territory, President, ConstitutionalCouncil,Government, Parliament and We, the People  and Republic of Cameroon are all factored into the Constitution from, which we derive the legal powers to connect with one another as well as the inalienable and sacred rights to  life, freedom ,liberty, justice, peace, prosperity and happiness. The Constitution gives us a sense of entitlement to being citizens and also stakeholders of Cameroon. Therefore, today I take great delight to bring to your attention the essence of the Constitution of Cameroon vis a vis our relationship with other Nations as stakeholders in Cameroon and friends abroad. I want to walk you through some very important parts and articles of the Constitution because it is very necessary that "all people that on earth do dwell" understand that in order for us to become non-violent and peaceful agents for freedom and change we must turn to the Constitution and the Rule of Law, which is apparently one of the most powerful basis for our existence as diverse people under One God and One Nation. But most importantly in order for people to believe in our vision and our plan to take Cameroon to a whole new level in history, we must start laying the foundation of our vision on the rule of law. No matter how supporters of the statusquo see it, the vision to begin finding common solutions to the problems we have been facing in Cameroon is not intended to be viewed as some sort of OPPOSITION TO CPDM,President Paul Biya and France. It must be perceived as an ALTERNATIVE FORCE FOR CHANGE TO RECKON WITH.Alternative in the sense that we are patriotic and believe in our common humanity as an integral part of the human race whether we are black or white from one region and continent to the  other. All of us are inclusive stakeholders and not anymore exclusive interest holders.I have simply rejected the constant notion that one is a leader of tomorrow. I hope that you have decided to join us to become the leaders of today endowed with vision,ideas and a new energy and impetus to drive the engine of change and inovation. There is something about this emerging new Political leadership ,which I like to share with you all. It is going to be   conscientiously inclusive, compassionate and empowering. Reasonable people are normally inspired by the greatness and success of other nations in  their own effort to shape their own destiny. The time has come for us to change the political system in Cameroon from dictatorship to freedom of all people in Cameroon oppressed by the system in question. There is a profound spiritual, moral and psychological appeal to the resistance of change by those with power, which contends that regardless of their lust for power and money they also need to be free. There reason is because sometimes oppressors are afraid of change because they don't know how the outcome will look like. One of the things I believe  is appropriate to do at this crucial moment in history is for us Cameroonians and Stakeholders of Cameroon, friends and sysmpathizers to adopt the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Africa. This should fall under what I will like to call                 The Restorative Justice and Reconciliation Council It's functions shall  be very easy; People are summoned to  appear before the Council to confess their crimes, declare their assets and return the portion that belongs to the State and recommendations be made to the Transitional Government to pardon their crimes on behalf and for the people of Cameroon. It should entail counciling and liberation of abusers and victims in a very special national program. People are also allowed to voluntarily appear before the Council if they do not want to be investigated before being brought beofore  otherwise.This is my idea about reconciliation and rehabilatation into the civil society. It is not a whole picture but at least you get a bird's eye view. The Restorative Justice dimension to this should hinge on compensation and restitution to victims of crimes. It is important to make a head count of all victims and identify heroes who have lost their lives fighting for either freedom, human rights and Independence. All people born and raised in Cameroon count and we cannot live as though we are insignificant. I feel that if oppressors give us the green light to form the transitional government amazing things will happen. I am very confident about this vision because in 2006 I had come up a peace plan for Cameroon. Things like this were going through my mind.  Law No.96-06 of 18 January 1996 to amend the Constitution of 2 June 1972. The National Assembly has deliberated and adopted; The President of the Republic hereby enacts the law set out below; " http://http://confinder. richmond. edu/admin/ docs/Cameroon. pdf  You must read the Constitution and if possible understand it very well before you engage me in any CPDM ,Paul Biya and France argument. This is the Constitution of Cameroon promulgated into law by Mr Paul Biya himself under the guidance of his National Assembly. Is it proper to ensure that he and his Parliament and Government uphold and respect that same Constitution that they all amended and ratified?  I making sure that our inalienable and sacred rights enshrined into the Constitution are respected accordingly. The Constitution of Cameroon is the foundation of any endeavors we are making to change Cameroon. If it cannot be taken seriously into Consideration to shape the debate as we discuss the problems we are facing then we cannot claim to be change agents. I want you and other skeptics  to pay particular attention to the following articles; The Preamble of the Constitution  and Article 65 Part One State and Sovereignty Article 1. State and Sovereignty Article 2   Article 3 Part two : Executive Power Article 5 Article 6 ( 2),(4) (a) (b) Chapter II The Government Article 11  Chapter 111 The legislative Power           Article 14 Chapter 1 The National Assembly           Article 15 Chapter 11 The Senate           Article 20 to Article 24 Part V Judicial Power           Article 37   ( 1)  Justice shall be administered In the Territory of the Republic in the name of the people of Cameroon    (2) Judicial power shall be exercised by the Supreme Court, Courts of Appeal and Tribunals. The Judicial Power shall be Independent of the Executive and Legislative Powers.Magistrates of the Bench shall, in the discharge of their duties, be governed only by the law and their conscience:"  Part V11 The Constitutional Council         Article 46 to Article 52  Part V111  The Court of Impeachement              Article 53  to work hand in hand with the Restorative Justice and Reconciliation Council Part VII Special Provision of the Constitution           Article 65       Article 66 Part X111 Transitional and Final Provision        Article 67(1) (2) Let me reiterate to all of us standing up with our conscience to disagree with those who are defending the  CPDM , President Paul Biya and French's oppressive attitude and exploitative policies against the oppressed that it is time for the rule of law  to prevail.  We cannot be subtle over  clear violations of the Constitution of Cameroon by CPDM , President Paul Biya, his government and  France. So long as CPDM regime and their Officials have not declared their assets accordingly, nobody within that Party or government or Parliament is qualified to govern that Country anymore. They are all disqualified because they broke the laws and violated the Constitution. The only peaceful way out is for President Paul Biya and his government to resign. We are winners. It is a win win situation for us because this moment in history had to come. I do not means words. When the time has come, no amount of manipulation , intimidation, threats and proving tough will change the facts about the rule of law.  This is not about guns, police and soldiers. It is about government, civil society and people who are entitled to inalienable and sacred rights enshrined into the Constitution of Cameroon.That is why it is very important that  everyone reads and understand the Constitution. The Chapters and Article are not enough.There are the most sensitive parts of the Constitution but please, I urge you my fellow Patriotic Country people and stakeholders of Cameroon to read the Constitution in its entirety because this will enable you not to fall prey to the machine of manipulation and hypnotism again by the CPDM regime. President Paul Biya and his government are no longer capable to discharge their functions as expected by law. This is not an exaggeration or a stretch beyond reality. There is no democracy or republic that functions outside of the rule of law or Constitution. So , we cannot allow the CPDM, Paul Biya and France to take us for a free ride from one decade to the other within a post-modern generation with great minds and ideas . This is the dawn of a new decade and it belongs to a new generation. It is our generation rightfully so because the Constitution has given us the power and mandate to lead Cameroon into the next phase of civilization. We can only participate in nation building on the basis of the rule of law.Where it is abundantly clear that those in power right now have no regards for the law, all people on earth who cherish the rule of law have a moral obligation to ensure that justice prevails.    The truth is all people are entitled to be free and this is very critical for all us as Cameroonians regardless of where we are and who we are. This issue is not about an amended Constitution. It is about the fact that that same amended Constitution enacted into Law by President Paul Biya is not being enforced by neither of the Officials.You should ask CPDM regime, Paul Biya and France to respect the Constitution I am not imagining things and writing about.  There is no nation on earth ,which exists without laws much more become member of the concert of nations without abiding by the rule of law whether at home or abroad. President Paul Biya,his government and France should be very compassionate to their fellow human beings and respect the rule of law by stepping down as soon as possible to enable the Transitional Government to get to work as demanded by law.

Communique  to all Pastors and Christians of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon( PCC) and Presbyterian Church ,USA( PCUSA) about the role of the church as a catalyst for positive change     Stop milking the cow and feed the sheep with the truth  for the freedom of Cameroon  from the oppression of the bad CPDM regime. We are still  under bondage but the Church must act now or never to liberate the people of God.   Dear Christian friends in Jesus Christ   I am wishing you all a very productive new year ,2012 with the gracious understanding that God almighty through our lord and savior Jesus Christ will bless you all in your efforts on this earth. I feel very obliged to call your attention to this matter because the church must participate to stop the continuous milking of the cow by the CPDM regime of Cameroon.   I am writing from the United States of America where I have even discovered more fantastic truths, which I would not quite justify because at the time in Cameroon those who were persecuting me claimed that I was young and inexperienced to write 100 theses to reform the church in Cameroon.   Yet, I did anyways because there was no way for the church to earn the moral capacity to partake in the struggle for freedom if the church was either ignorant or simply nonchalant due to corruption. I won't necessarily quote scriptures because I think everyone knows how to rush to the verses of scriptures to back up their case!   The balancing act of the gospel of salvation moves from application to enforcement of the divine truth of God in our society bed ridden by mediocrity because the church is both in the present and the future.   It is Ok  for the church at home and abroad to fulfill the great commission so long as the people are already free and pursuing their happiness now and beyond. But when the people aren't free from the dungeons of despair and oppression then the church must take seriously into consideration the balancing act of the gospel of salvation.   It states that Jesus Christ came that we might have life and have it abundantly in this world and in the world to come where we shall meet to part no more. The balancing act of the gospel acknowledges the role of God in this life and the ultimate role God is playing in his eternal kingdom. The balancing act of the gospel of salvation was applied in full force by  people who have lived before us and today we have a better world.Now is our turn and the Church must rise up to the occasion.     It is easy for most African theologians and lay Christians to point accusing fingers at missionaries and blame them for being agents of colonization and neo-colonization. Even as many of them have earned their Ph.D in some branch of theology in either Europe or North America and returned to Cameroon, still a handful of them  continue to brainwash the oppressed to believe that it was the fault of the white missionaries for our situation. I have been within the USA for more than a decade now and have witnessed some of the PCC Pastors and others came here for studies. I always wonder what they have studied and how their studies is helping the Church and the Cameroon society? Just curious !   After  most of them have completed their studies and returned to Cameroon, they owe their thanks and loyalty to the Synod Officials who offered them a preferential treatment affording them the golden opportunity to travel overseas for " foreign studies". I wanted to pursue my Ph. D in Ethics  or Church and Society but was blocked by the PCUSA and PCC for obvious reasons; retaliation and persecution because I dare exercised my right to free speech.I said preferntial treatment because not everybody gets to go for further studies and if you have to qualify then you must leak the boots of the Synod Officials as well as oil their lips. The PCC is a very corrupt to the marrow because  they PCC officials have become as corrupt as the government. This has left the  people of God in the cold for too long and when they time came for the Church to be reformed so that she might live out it true meamning as the salt and light in a dark oppressed Cameroon society, they wanted to escape from the truth. Well, we all know that they can't.We, the people want to know what role the PCC has been playing since 10 years ago to help in the struggle  for liberation of Cameroon from CPDM regime.   Through out history no society  would emerge from  the shackles of oppression without the Church being actively involved as a spiritual and moral force that must be reckoned with by the downtrodden.In order for the Church to be a catalyst for positive change in any society where the people are oppressed by a very bad and corrupt government like the CPDM regime of Cameroon, the Church must have a conscience and moral compass with ,which to speak up as a voice of God.While in Cameroon, I observed  during the PCC crisis  that the CPDM regime succeeded to invade the PCC  Synod and rendered it morally and spiritual incapacitated because some of the Synod officials of the PCC were agents of the CPDM regime as well as anti-Chirst and anti-God passing around as Pastors and Christians.   The Church is very likely not going to be a such a catalyst for positive change if  some church leaders like those of the PCC are on the side of the bad government not because they necessarily value that government but because their friendship with the officials of the bad government is helpful to them in their  own corrupt practices against the people of God. The people of Cameroon who are oppressed and held in bondage can only be freed if the PCC Synod led by the Moderator and his Synod  will quit from seeking out their selfish ends and begin to perform the job  for,which Jesus Christ, the head of the Church, called them to perform in Cameroon.     I cannot overstate the obvious when it comes to the expectations of the Churches or churches to be proactive against the injustices of  a bad government. It is not a matter of  whether or not. It is a profound moral and spiritual responsibility for the Church to stand  with the downtrodden until they are liberated. The PCC has failed to champion the cause of freedom and justice in Cameroon since the last 10 years. They have been negatively distracted by leaving the oppressors and coming after the reformer and freedom fighter. This is sad but this must change. They must prove to Cameroonians and the world that they are not just another weapon of manipulation, exploitation and oppression by a clique of extremely corrupt Church officials who hide behind Jesus Christ to commit some of the worst crimes of corruption ever.   The responsibility falls squarely on the shoulders of those who lead these Churches during the past 10 years. In Cameroon, the PCC officials abandoned their ecclesiastical functions and became materialistic hunters around the world  to  continue enriching themselves and their families at home and abroad. Synod officials of the PCC and other promenent Church officials in various departments are well known for owning large chuncks of assets and juicy bank accounts in Cameroon as far as Swizz Banks, Europe and United States of America. I have repeatedly called upon all CPDM officials to declare their assets per the constitution but let us be mindful of the fact that the PCC officials have not equally declared their assets since they protested against 100 theses ,which also targeted their corrupt ways.   Effectively immediately as from  this January 2012 through December 2012 I  am  intensifying the call for the PCC  to be reformed completely by raising an international awareness among all organizations ans the civil society  that are in partnership with the PCC in Cameroon. When I first published the 100 theses for Church reforms with focus on social justice issues, the Basel Mission  in Switzerland , which was the original missionary partner of  the PCC was involved in a positive way.   They made a great effort to insist on the reforms,which I suggested to the stubborn Synod of the PCC. Then when I came to the USA and also engaged the PCUSA that almost shattered the reform process because the PCUSA was more interested in maintaining colonial structures of oppression as opposed to being a catalyst for positive change. I have appreciated the fact that some PCUSA missionary churches involved in different churches in Cameroon  have taken the 100 theses seriously especially the state of corruption perpetrated by most of the Synod Officials in the PCC but that does not go very far enough.   This is why I want us to be more proactive in holding the all partner churches and organizations as well as the PCC Synod Officials  more accountable pertaining to the role that the Church was originally meant to accomplish inside every society. The past and present leadership of the PCC since 1999 when they conspired and dismissed my very humble self from the church in order to continue  their culture of embezzlement, stealing and corruption, theft of missionary money sent to help the people oppressed by the CPDM regime, extortion of Christians in  the parishes who sweat everyday under heavy church projects while the lazy folks in the Synod Office are doing nothing except exploiting and milking the cow as usual would get away with their crimes and sins in the name  of Jesus Christ.   The officials of the PCC must understand that the world is not the same again like 1999 when they came after me like bees and stung me. The present world in, which we live now is one in ,which we will expose all church thieves. Pastors and lay people who embezzle, steal from mission funds and congregational funds for private adventures and luxurious life styles for themselves and their children overseas will be held to account. All church employees and workers must live within their means and all people must be treated with respect and dignity. It is unacceptable for some people  to hijack the church and turn it  into  a private plantation and sort of think that they will get away with it forever. No, it is wrong and I condemn corruption inside the PCC by anyone who is corrupt or who condones it in any shape or form. I condemn the action of those who continue to leave the issues at stake and pursuing innocent people who have nothing to do with the mission ,which God called them to perform in the world.However, if some of the PCC Pastors and Lay workers as well as Christains are not children of God, well, let the Christians stand up for their Church now or never. I recommend a revolutiion within the PCC and all people who desire Chuirch reforms must be assured that our cause is a noble, sacred and acceptable before God in heaven.We must stop all the corrupt people in the Synod Office until we have clean and clear reforms as well as promote the difgnity of all people.   They must be transparency and accountability at all levels and we want all PCC Christians in Cameroon and around the people to make sure that they do not allow the Synod people to either bully, intimidate or threaten them again. We will file complaints to organizations as far as take legal actions to expose the assets of some of them who have piled up ill gotten wealth for themselves while our people are suffering under poverty. We will advocate  on behalf of the ordinary people who are victims of these elite within the PCC and our advocay will go very far to extent,which names of  people will be published to the world if they do not change their behavior and declare their assets.      Jonathan Awasom    The voice for Cameroon, Africa and the world in the 21st century The Rally-cry for freedom, justice, peace ,democracy and prosperity for all Empowering humanity to build a virtuous and free world for the beloved global village Blog:  http://virtuousandfreecameroon.blogspot.com/

NEW YEAR MESSAGE: CHEERING UP CHAMPIONS OF TRUTH FOR FREEDOM

My fellow Cameroonians and members of the beloved International Community, friends and sympathizers of Cameroon champions       Cheering up Champions of truth for freedom We , as the champions of the oppressed , I mean the voiceless and forgotten, have a very good reason to be in this world and so long as one never wrote an application to be born and sort of entitled to some acceptable sacred and inalienable human rights, packaged and served on a platter of gold to everyone from birth, it is not up to those who oppress us in total defiance to these values to decide whether we should stand up relentlessly  or cease from protesting. How can we stop  protesting when the oppressors have not stopped oppressing us? Where  there is oppression there is  a protest and the day oppression will stop, this protest will also stop. I hope  I am very clear. My fellow champions, here we are again marking yet another milestone in history even at the cross-roads of  people struggling to keep the statusquo  and others struggling to bring down all humpty-dumpties. How I wish I knew how better this can be done as I watch with great admiration and concerned how other dictators have crumbled at a very short notice under a heavy resistant movement they waged against freedom fighters. I wonder indeed when will the Cameroon dictatorship and corrupt tyranny also crumble and why it has not yet fallen in spite of a portracted period of advocacy and protest from us. I see myself as a peaceful freedom fighter and advocate. It sounds like there is nothing like a peaceful freedom fighter? So, what should we do? You mean keep praying 24/7 like the pharasees for God to change Paul Biya and the CPDM Party? I don't think so. A protest does not have to be a big size to make it credible moreso when it is tailored within the unfolding struggle  to defend the univeral principles of human dignity. By the same token, one can successfully fight for freedom of his country and people  from any possible safe distant so long as there is a measuring rod that links the distant of operation and the point of contact or impact. A safe distant in this case is only an opportunity that providence has provided to nurture and race the level of consciousness that is required to crerate the desired impact. What I am insinuating is simple for those who have a metaphysical perception of life and understand that  it is no longer any kind of mystery for me to phone Cameroon from the United States and speak to someone within 1 minute whereas it would take me about two days to travel to Cameroon to meet the same person and vice versa. I have seen the CPDM Party left Cameroon and campaigned to stay in power within the United States of America where we are on political asylum! How contradictory is this? I am very humble by the fact that I have expanded the battle field for the freedom of Cameroon the moment I discovered that my political asylum was a platform and immediately swung into action. By being proactive,  our actions in myriads of ways forced the CPDM Party to  exend the political landscape of Cameroon to Europe as well as North America. In fact, they fell into the trap set up by the wiseman! That is why I am not giving up and will never look back until Cameroon is free from bad guys and women. I have grown up in this life and world very certain that when people do not choose to survive under a government those who represent such a government must know that it is their responsibility to account for the state of their dignity  under their reign of terror. It is sickening to even imagine that any Cameroonian leader within the political,religious or traditional structures do have a great admiration for Western civilization where they have dispatched all their children and yet cannot understand that the children they are oppressing now inside Cameroon are also deserving in this life. One does not have to be forced and subjected under any kind of very bad government when in our present world there are endless possibilities and opportunities for everyone to live a happy and normal life. The idea that some people can fake a political system and government ,and  then get away with it because they are well armed to butcher anyone who dare oppose them has been completely shattered and behold today it is now a myth.Those who call us " small rats" must be aware that God is listening to the cries of the oppressed and helpless people and there is time when the long awaited miracle will happen.We will never value someone who has not earned the mandate of the people of Cameroon to govern. We have refused to be noted anywhere on this earth as some kind of dumb Cameroonian people who cannot stand up for ourselves like some extremely radical folks who can do anything just to get justice or freedom. We just have a different approach to this matter and our protest  for many years now could not be overbelabored. I  believe everyday of my life that those who have armed Mr Paul Biya and the CPDM regime over the years to oppressed us  have understood  our cry for freedom and justice by now. I can only continue to  mount the  acceptable pressure that is required to spin the wheel of change and transformation on the high road of peaceful transition of Cameroon  into a virtuous and free society that will uphold the rule of law.It is clear that 2011 will soon be history as we focus onto the future. When one is compounded by the heavy burden of a seeming endless tunnel of agony of oppression, future means more than just a talk about 2012 resolutions. The fact is we  are  on a journey to  build a virtuous and free Cameroon society for all Cameroonians as well as all white people who have come to admire and love Cameroonians and Cameroon at different levels. In the past 2011 some very strange things happened ,which never came to anyone by surprise because we had earlier on seen the handwriting on the wall many years back.It  is the fact that innocent Cameroonians  have been betrayed by some Cameroonians who called themselves opposition leaders and yet had absolutely nothing  for ,which they were opposing since 1990. Now after several years, we have come to realize that we are back to square one because a few individuals with their intense selfish agendas deliberately took advantage of our people and enriched themselves by using their false cry about opposition to milk the same people they have lied to.We are still hopeful because we have not lost faith in God and I must add that we are now on a safe side because we know those who have betrayed our people. No matter how they have tried so hard to game the system and the people, their conscience will live after them.We must  continue to stand together as well as renew our commitment ,and determination to forge ahead since a better tomorrow awaits those who never give up.Our cause is a very sacred and noble cause. Indeed, no matter the twists and turns, the bumbs and potholes on our path, history is very factual about those who survived the great depression, persecution, slavery, racism, apartheid and even some of the terrible natural disasters ,yet. This is because in the face of all odds, great thinkers and humble souls are resilient and faithful to the voices of the people for whom their toils and labors of love are dedicated. For me and my family, we will never fail you.We have come thus far and in spite of the trials and tribulations, we have been blessed by an endless list of friends whose immense contributions to our common cause for happiness and peace has been very enriching and inspiring. I remain very humble and grateful to all the amazing friends all over the world who know that good people must never be withdrawn becase evil must be put down. As from January 2012, I intend to go the extra-mile  for us to hold the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon( PCC) accountable as well as the Presbyterian Church ,USA(PCUSA) who are missionary partners of the PCC  because I believe that it is about time for the  PCC church leaders to take an active part in the liberation of Cameroonians from the CPDM bondage. I will enlist your support andf cooperation in this effort because the church ought to stand up for the truth. I  humbly stand together with those who believe in what  I stand for since 1999 till date. By the end of January 2011, I must have been able to  take a look at how far we have come with this protest against the injustice of the CPDM regime and evil perpetrated by their  CPDM Party officials against our people.Be rest assured that we will never give up so long as we are seeking the truth  towards a virtous and free world. History is on our side and "we  shall overcome". Always visit my blog and be informed.

Mr PAUL BIYA IS NOT THE PRESIDENT OF CAMEROON: I WILL TAKE OVER FROM MR PAUL BIYA AS SOON AS HE STEPS DOWN TO FORM A TRANSITIONAL GOVERNMENT FOR 24 MONTHS

My fellow Cameroonians and members of the beloved International Community   Mr Paul Biya is not the President of Cameroon: He must not get away with injustice and hijacking of our constitution and future again. He has no right to appoint Ministers because he is not legitimate  under all laws considered.   Imagine,  this scenario  in Cameroon as we speak; our nieces and nephews  are born under this evil CPDM empire and appear to be raised under abnormal people, corrupt, selfish and heartless. Yes, your nieces and nephews , too fall in the same group of Cameroonians who appear to be  condemned under a government that they never asked for but are told that theyhave no other alternative but to remain trapped! This means their destiny has no clear destination when those who purport to be leaders or a government have no vision for their future.   It is beyond the mere quest for a transitional government that I continue to embark on this path. I am making the case  for a virtuous and free Cameroon. This is a very anointed vision ,which I have been very  humble to articulate in the light of the ancient principles of the founding fathers of America, which inspired them to build a virtuous and free society in the name of the United States of America. Anyone who is inspired by the United States ought to see things the way I do because only  people who in some state of moral and spiritual comatose would be oblivious of the American spirit.   We have seen our own hard times in Cameroon and witnessed the  innocent blood of Cameroonians also shed in the struggle for  justice and freedom.I believe that it is about time  to stop any further bloodshed  of innocent lives  but the appeal for a peaceful transition is not a sign of weakness.Instead only cowards fight blindly in this age of exceeding enlightenment  otherwise called post-modernism. Wise people do not resist the wind of change.They must not insist to keep the statusquo when the time for change has come.Do not underestimate the young ,wise visionary nation builder. God is at work and no evil will prevail.   Mr Paul Paul Biya is not the President of Cameroon since October 2011.Consequently, he has no legal basis  by virtue of the Constitution of Cameroon to appoint Ministers or even govern Cameroon.What he has done tantamounts to treasonable acts against the Statehood of Cameroon nation and humanity.He was well informed along with his government  and CPDM Party that they were not and will never be eligible to stand for President because it was first of all criminal for him to tamper with  our constitution  in order to run again as President.   Mr Paul Biya can go ahead to appint people to work in his private plantation the way he likes but I don't remember since  I was born 42 years that Cameroon has become a private property for the CPDM regime, CPDM Party and the French government. I thought slavery was abolished and outlawed? If, we the people have stakes in our country,then those who are helping Mr Paul Biya and his corrupt government to stay in power must remember that we are not condoning injustice.We have a place and a say in what belongs to all of us.   Now, Mr Paul Biya made things worst by bribing 23 other fake Presidential candidates to participate in his smooth charade called democracy and each time he has tried to take action against the vision God has blessed me with for Cameroon, he has only landed himself into a buttomless hole! Cameroonians and the world deserve a visionary leader who knows that it was wrong  to intentionally bribe candidates to take part in a falsehood , I mean a visonary leader with character  who still  knows it will be wrong to knowingly embezzle State funds to bribe a group of opposition candidates to support his cause of corrupt tyranny and dictatorship. We have come of age in our level of moral and spiritual consciousness to the point,which it is quite indecorous  for  a leader to look at the post-modern  world from their narrow standpoint.   I am a strict person who strives to live by the rule of law but most importantly, I did not make those rules in the first place. It is very troubling that the same people who created these rules seem to tell us that it is just Ok  for them to break the rules again! Is this what we are teaching the younger generation of Cameroonians?I believe that no matter what Mr Paul Biya does with the CPDM regime against our Cameroonian people,  all of you are fully aware that I am the only most competent Cameroonian at this twilight in history to move Cameroon forward into the 21st century. I have the inalienable right to be President just as Paul Biya and even so I am  eligible and qualified than him all things considered.   So, it is very wrong for  them to stand in the way. I feel good about the fact that  we have succeeded to push the corrupt humty-dumpty CPDM Party and regime against their own of stone wall of oppression, injustice and corruption ,which forced them to leap around like a toad from a hot pond cajoling for sympathy from the corporate world. Me, too I can talk to the corporate world. Let the CPDM regime and Party not think that the doors of the corporate world are only opened to them. It is wrong for any government to play with our future like this. I want a new and better Cameroon for  our nieces and nephews.After all what does the CPDM folks get to loose?  They have killed enough Cameroonians to sponsor their families overseas who live in unthinkable affluence while our people are suffering!   In 2009, I was the first ever candidte to declare my candidacy with a  compelling vision and a plan of action that launched  the call for a transitional government.I have neither backed down nor changed my position on any of the issues and ideas that I have articulated with excellent temperament and moral tenacy.A statesman is one who takes a big dream for his or her country and turns it into a practical vision along ,which lines inspires well informed citizens to become fellow nation builders and  public servant leaders with respect to the constitution and promise of the country.   In this light, the Presidency and government of Cameroon is for the people who have earned the  birth and naturalization right to be governed by  way of their consent  following the Constitution of Cameroon. The Presidency is not a kingdom for a king Kong! This must be made abundantly clear because if we  are not stakeholders then a negligible number of people from the otherside of the old Federal structure  neither represent me nor speak on my behalf because I am educated and matured enough to know the difference between evil and good to the point where any PM or Minister who is appointed cannot satisfy the broad provisions of good governance and rule of law ,which surpasses ethnic politics.   It is very certain to Cameroonians and  members of the international community, that Cameroon has a leadership vacuum right now created by the stubborn refusal of  dictator Paul Biya to hand over to  a transitional government as I demanded since 2009. We must uphold the Constitution of Cameroon now and I believe beyond any reasonable doubts that all normal human beings  on this  planet whether white or black understand that we have no other reason to be called Cameroonians if the Constitution is not binding as well as enoforced to the fullest extent. I find  it hard to believe that  someone would want to get away with the hijacking of our destiny without the slightest sense of shame!   It should be noteworthy that I had predicted the outcome of a  CPDM  and Paul Biya's resistance to change , which is why I took Cameroonians and the world unwares with a different kind of  cyber revolutionary protest, advocacy and campaign against the statusquo. Following an aggressive onslaught against the CPDM regime and CPDM Party, somehow because they had the ability to steal and embezzle from state treasuries all over Cameroon, the CPDM regime and Party sponsored an advertisement on one of the major News Medias in the Usa  to portrait Paul Biya and his regime as " a model of peace and stability in West Africa", which angered me because there is no question about the fact that our people are oppressed and even so have become victims of media manipulation and lies told by the CPDM corrupt establishment. Peace does not necessary mean the absence of war or street protest, which is what the CPDM regime was referring to. To talk  about peace, one must take into consideration all things   There is no room for one man to think that he and his clique would have to hold a country like Cameroon ,which belongs to all of us hostage for life. He has reigned for more than 29 years and that is enough! One cannot be forced to  put  up with mediocrity simply because the perpetrators are some kind of mad people who erroneously think that the rule of law has lost is value and essence in the wake of global politics. Cameroonians and the new world needs a leader, a statesman and nation builder with a vision and courage that is required to inspire and empower Cameroonians to transcend factional ethnicities and regroup as one people under God to rebuild Cameroon under a Federal system   I will make the best President for Cameroon during this transitional period  because I have  overcome the trials of temptation and corruption,which have soiled the reputation of others who were shortsightedness to see what I saw since 2009 before standing up to the CPDM regime.The truth is when you look at the 24 people who were bribed with at least 15 millions frs cfa  to participate in  the fake Presidential elections ,which has catapulted Mr Paul Biya into a  rare stubborn dictator and  corrupt tyrant, you will come to the realization that I was right. Let me explain this very clearly.   Remember, I was not out to seek the Presidency  for mere fame except that I have been motivated by a sheer sense of love for my country and people oppressed to galvanize Cameroonians to come together so that we will  rebuild  a new nation.I dream of a new Cameroon where we shall all explore the difficult challenges we have encountered in our own journeys as a people who once upon a time were blessed with a flourishing promise- a promise that is yet to be tapped  into but for this to happen, Mr Paul Biya and his corrupt CPDM Party and regime must understand that  history is not in their favor.   We must uphold the laws of our country and once again, we want no war and we want no dictatorship and corrupt tyranny.However, I will do whatever is necessary under the amrpit of the legal system in America and the world to wage a legal battle against the CPDM Party and regime. For details about this unending protest , please, always visit the people's blog for information and the speed of advocacy and activism for a virtuous and free Cameroon.      Thank you all     Jonathan Awasom    The voice for Cameroon, Africa and the world in the 21st century The Rally-cry for freedom, justice, peace ,democracy and prosperity for all Empowering humanity to build a virtuous and free world for the beloved global village Blog:  http://virtuousandfreecameroon.blogspot.com/

A THEORY OF CORRUPTION AND THE CORRUPT CAMEROON NATION AND PEOPLE: A MEMO TO CAMEROONIANS AND MEMBERS OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY

 

--- On Thu, 12/1/11, Jonathan Awasom <wisesayings10@yahoo.com> wrote:

My fellow Cameroonians and members of the civilized International Community   Greetings again.   Part One   As we struggle endlessly to build a virtuous and free Cameroon society, it is  obvious that  a stream of unconscious and  uneducated  CPDM school of thought  have chosen to come in between what we seek to accomplish by trying to defend the same corrupt system in Cameroon that we, the people  have long past a vote of no confidence against them. We will not succumb to their intrigues and manipulations because we know that the head of the snake carries the  poisonous venom. The man who wants Cameroonians, Africans and the world to believe by either crook or hook that he is still President of Cameroon is  very corrupt beyond corruption with his government officials. There has never been any controversy as to the nature and scope of  their corrupt leadership because it is something terrible and requires urgent action,which explains why I have never been at ease with them.The kind of corruption we see in Cameroon is the worst, yet in  human history. These folks are dangerously corrupt and worst still have everything that is against human dignity to get away with it for too long.   I always do my research very well before I pour out my frustration( this unending protest) and perhaps knowledge, vision and energy as a voice for the voiceless in our conscientious endeavors to stamp out corruption and evil in our world. I neither write in a vacuum nor do I imagine things to bother anyone with since I also invest so much time  and effort in exploring what others have said about what I am thinking and writing about.   This is very true about corruption in any form or shape except that I am very specific about corruption caused by a Cameroon corrupt political establishment that is corrupt beyond corruption( corrupt tyranny and dictatorship like the CPDM regime ,Party and government of Cameroon is totally inconceivable for anyone to dare embrace them)   I don't agree with those who think that because we  are all human beings and sinful, those who broke our laws, violate our humanity as well as seek to destroy the dreams and aspirations of others be given  some sort  of  free pass. They can be punished and forgiven but to be given a free pass because we are all sinful or fallible is wrong and unacceptable.   " The problem of corruption is particularly difficult to eradicate because the cost that would be involved to achieve this are very high.The authors suggest that perhaps should aim at minimizing corruption by means of personal involvement; and institutionally by means of limiting the discretionary powers of the state authorities.The former places the responsibility of the fight against corruption upon each  individual in a society, especially those in which corruption is rampant. The latter points to the rule of law and the necessity of checks and balances for agencies of the state"  Osvaldo Schenone and Samuel Gregg   When I lay my hands on a useful information and knowledge, I articulate it in the light of the state of corruption and evil in Cameroon/ Africa in order to capture and harness the contextual relevance of  the philosophy and science of education. What I mean is education is very important when it is carried out within a particular context where the circumstance demands an occasion for people to be educated or set on the path to be enlightened against ignorance.    Suppose I was to pursue a Ph.D in Education in terms of policy making, it will be only relevant if I speak from the inside of the society where I was born into the new society where I  am being groomed as a future Statesman. I call this strategic learning, which enhances effective diagnosis of the perfect threats to good governance and development of my country and people.   Osvaldo Schenone and Samuel Gregg write in their book " A Theory of Corruption"  The Theology and Economics of Sins also considered as a Christian Social Thought Series  that;   "There is perhaps no greater problem that handicaps the flourishing of developing nations than that of corruption.Though corruption is associated with the original sin that marks the heart of every person, corruption is also a social scourge that debilitates the daily economic and legal transanctions upon which all of us ultimately depend for our material survival.For many people, corruption is invisible, as it is often limited  to specific sectors of the economy.For  others, it is an omnipresent feature of their existence.In all cases,howerver, corruption is ultimately derived from the personal choices of individuals to violate the law that, as Saint Paul reminds us, is written on our hearts, Romans 1:15" ( That law to me is also article 66 of the Cameroon Constitution,which calls for all Cameroon government officials  to declare their assets but they  are trying to hijack both the law of Saint Paul and the laws of Cameroons and it is not permissible)    The stolen assets and ill-gotten riches of corrupt Cameroon officials and their children within the United States and other parts of the world must be ceased pending enforcement of article 66 of the Cameroon Constitution as well as investigation into all their pro- Bernie Madoff and Pondi Schemes.    In 2004, President George W. Bush of the United States introduced the No Safe Haven Law against corrupt foreign nationals and their children from being allowed within the United or admitted into the United States  if there were found guilty and charged of corruption.   I believe that Cameroon officials and theirr children overseas are not only corrupt but have been  instrumental in the gross violation of the human rights of Cameroonians as far as killing innocent citizens in order to protect their corrupt life styles at home and abroad.   This law still exists and as the voice for the voiceless, I am calling upon the Supreme Court of the United States, the White House, Congress and  the US Council on Foreign Relations to cooperate with us , Cameroonians living wihtin the United States on political asylum  to enforce this law against the Cameroon corrupt foreign nationals and their children living within the United States of America and other Stakeholder nations around the world.   The number one embezzlers and corrupt Cameroonians in recent history are the men and women who have usurped the civil rights of Cameroonians and trying to make themself President,Chief Justice  and Parliamentarians for life in the person of Mr. Paul Biya as President of Cameroon, the President of the Constitutional Council, Chief Justice  of the Supreme Court of Cameroon and all the CPDM majority Parliamentarians, Ministers, Ambassadors and Governors of all the ten regions of Cameroon. These individuals are on the wrongside of history.   Mr Paul Biya  has no moral capacity as well as the political mandate to stamp out corruption as well as effectively prosecute perpetrators because he is also as corrupt as those he pretends to prosecute.  It is an act of injustice for him to think that he is invincible and beyond prosecution.    Even so I have been very troubled by the fact that he thinks that the more corrupt Cameroonians are the better for him and his sole ambition to be President for life as a strategy to avoid prosecution.This is bad news for  governments around the world who adore good governance and the rule of law under the canopy of strategic planning and capacity building with respect to the SWOT analysis theory. What about the Thermodynamics theory in physics?   I can explain all these later but I am very clear that government and political power is about the people and should not be hijacked by a clique of individuals who send their children overseas into flamboyant living and at the sametime killing, murdering and oppressing the rest of the citizens who are not in control.   I am strongly against the CPDM regime as well as some Church leaders who have taken advantage of our people as though they ever  had to choose what country to belong to during and after colonization, whatever that was!Consequently, I strongly disagree with his cohorts and followers at home and abroad who are erroneously or intentionally trying so hard to convince us that an illegitimate and illegal President MUST be allowed to rule us again by the use of force!   No, Mr. Paul Biya and his Constitutional Council and Supreme Court hijacked our constitution and conspired to usurp our sovereign human rights and constitutional civil rights, which are enshrined into the Constitution of Cameroon as well as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other International laws. His rubber stamp Parliament became toothless bull dogs because they are also corrupt.   I have the profound moral obligation to ensure that the CPDM regime and party, which is also  illegally operating within the United States of America, to  understand that my position against their illegality, illegitimacy, injustice and abuse of power has never been altered by any form of propaganda, threats and intimidation.   I was very clear since 2009 that Mr. Paul Biya and any other member within the CPDM regime and CPDM Party were never going to be eligible to run for President and that if any of them used any means necessary to do so AS THEY HAVE STUBBORNLY DONE, it would be considered illegal and criminal.   I have been consistent and time has proven that I was absolutely right. Long before the 23 Cameroon opposition got entangled into all these, I had also warned them not to participate in an illegal elections organized by a regime that has no legitimacy and mandate to so do.   Yet, the defied reason and commonsense until the truth prevailed as they have turned out to be the hunted( because the 23 opposition leaders participated in a corrupt, fraudulent and illegal Presidential election for money and not out of the political goodwill to ensure that Cameroon is changed from bad to good governance) instead of the hunters.   I applaud my fellow Cameroonians from all walks of life who listened to the call for all of us to boycott from the said fake Presidential elections.We, the people have own way   of rebelling or revolting against the statusquo.   While other people rise up in their huge numbers on the streets in protest, we Cameroonians chose a different revolutionary path,which was MASSIVE BOYCOTT  galvanized through the cyber revolution with endless protest letters, memos and castigation of the said horrible regime ,which culminated into an unprecedented awareness about the uncivilized activities of the CPDM regime and Party all over the world.   In this light, I am once more urging all Cameroonians and the world again to continue to cooperate with us until Mr. Paul Biya and his CPDM regime and Party leave power immediately. We must all stand with the oppressed and those who choose to sympathize with brutal dictators and a criminal regime with corrupt officials like the CPDM regime of Cameroon, either directly or indirectly for convenience must know that they are guilty of destroying the destiny and future of a whole generation of peace loving citizens bubbling with energy and enthusiasm to build a new Cameroon. AS THIS YEAR 2011 COMES TO AN END, I MUST MAKE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT WE, CAMEROONIANS HAVE SAID ENOUGH IS ENOUGH TO THE CPDM REGIME IN OUR OWN WAYS AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO A  BETTER FUTURE AS FROM 2012   The mentality of the beneficiaries of the Paul Biyaism CPDM regime: They really think that he is invincible ! I just have a serious problem with this individual who projects his Master and Boss Mr Paul Biya whom I truly believe is the number one embezzler and thief as some sort of invincible human being in this world who is above every law of man and nature! This is what this new propagandist of the regime states;  ...then His Excellency Paul Biya may need to go beyond words, to make some very serious decisions regarding the fate of the same people he appointed to serve in his Administration. Individuals who may have abused the President's trust by behaving like common criminals and fools" All members and supporters of the CPDM regime of Cameroon at home and abroad do not believe that their number one man, Mr Paul Biya has done anything wrong! They are constantly separating him from others within his regime, government and Party who are partners with him in abusing power and behaving as criminals and fools in their own words, of course! The first thing that all of them must understand effective immediately is, no Cameroonian was going to be invincible and above the laws of our country and laws of nature. That is why we have mounted a very active and ongoing  non-violent revolution against anything and anybody that is CPDM or associate with such an endemic vicious  system of government. Truth be told because we must never condone.It is our moral duty to stand up to every evil, injustice and bad  that threaten our common humanity together. I have never thought about a Cameroon society isolated from the rest of  world but one must  not be preyed upon because the people are well enlightened but lack the means to stop Mr Paul Biya and his corrupt regime. The current status of Mr Paul Biya of Cameroon Mr Paul Biya has been told over and over again that he and his CPDM regime, Government and Party are on the wrong side of history. I mince no words when I state categorically that I  DO NOT recognize Mr Paul Biya as President of Cameroon and most importantly that he should not be allowed to continue  their insanity on a whole generation of innocent citizens who deserve better. He has not earned the mandate of the people of Cameroon at all and this is because we, the people believe beyond any reasonable doubts that Mr Paul Biya is bent to die in power because for over 29 years as President of Cameroon , he is; The number one embezzler and thief  of public funds The number one corrupt Cameroonian who has not honored article 66 The number one murderer of Cameroonians The number one abusers and violator of the human rights of Cameroonians The number one hijacker of  the constitution of Cameroonians for sefish ends The number one dictator and tyrant among all of his cohorts within his cycle of corrupt power Consequently, in order for any change to be effective and meaningful in Cameroon and among Cameroonians, the number one enemy of humanity and the progress of Cameroon and Cameroonians must be changed.He is not above the laws and we must stick with the facts with respect to the constitution of Cameroon and international laws that frown against crimes against humanity by the CPDM regime. How moral escapism is injected  into the debate to kill the effort Then comes another uneducated fellow who states as follows; "It is not just the government even the people are corrupt. The assumption from the Reverend is that if you remove CPDM from power, the society will be free of corruption. That is not true and I am sure even he knows that. The problems in Cameroon are systemic and require a radical reorientation of the society itself, not just the government"       CPDM-USA This is what is called in literature Moral Escapism. The government is corrupt and the people are also corrupt.Therefore, nothing should be done so that the blame game continues while powerless and helpless people remain oppressed and decieved to believe that they are indeed corrupt! What  he is actually talking about is called  situational corruption just as a police officer would pose as a prostitute to arrest a married man addicted to sex to the extent of paying a prostitute to have sex. Those who pay prostitute must stop their immoral and criminal actions because when there are no pay masters, there won't be any more prostitutes on the streets.This is pure and simple. What I mean is if we get rid of a corrupt and immoral government like the CPDM regime of Cameroon, then we are less likely going to raise more corrupt and immoral Cameroonians in the near future.  This is what I know . These kinds of  people are in this usual business of blaming the victims for their moral and spiritual failures. They don't ever realize that they are  perhaps most responsible for their circumstance. We must save our children from this generation of very corrupt men and women whose immoral leadership has corrupted and pollutted the atmosphere of  sanity in Cameroon and among Cameroonians. Morality is taught and learned while immorality is unlearned Nobody in this world was born with morales. We do acquire morales and as time goes on we build our own moral values based on a  lot of factors but one thing is absolutely clear about being a member of a society. The fact that every soceity is expected to have laws, rules or a set of rules and principles by, which everyone agrees are decent and modest, and ethical enough for a good and healthy co-existence changes the conversation about trying to blame someone else for our own moral failures. So, if we have rules or laws, they must be enforced. If those who are supposed to enforce those laws are not truthful to perform their duties, well, they must be a reason why they are obstructing justice or standing in the way of good governance and the rule of law When we are born into this world, a good  society expects us to be taught while we are are on the recieving end to learn to the extent ,which it boils down to a give and take mutual responsibility. Tell me how kids can acquire morales on their own without some role models or father or mother figure in their lives?  It is a rare tragedy to see how some of  these  Cameroonians tend to  reason so subjectively and sefishly when  confronted with hard facts. I was born and raised in Cameroon and while a student from elementary school through college,  our teachers taught us morales so that as we grew up we would make informed decisions between right and wrong. They taught us  because they were fully conversant of the fact that if we were not taught, we would be exposed to the immorales that  are more prevalent than moral norms because of human nature. They  made us to  learn and  understand the difference between right and wrong  and expected us to conduct ourselves in that light in society, school, church and at home/community. By the time I was back at home, my parents, too had some very serious moral lessons to offer and back and forth these lessons  impacted my upbringing till date.  It is frightening when any Cameroonian is trying to downplay on these simple truths about life. How can one blame a child who is born and raised under a culture of corruption as a result of a very corrupt and egoistic politicians who do not care about the moral and spiritual failures of their fellow man because it  does not affect their stolen and ill-gotten wealth and the wonderful lives they  are offering  to their  children overseas at the expense of other children held in bundage in Cameroon? The moral responsibility to ensure that government functions with an appropriate code of conduct guided by ethical principles /rules is a shared responsibility provided that government does not use the military against its own people. The citizens of Cameroon did not ask the CPDM regime and folks to be corrupt. This is a choice they made consciously because it was  part of a  grand scheme to frame up every other Cameroonian to get entangled in their vicious cycle. What I am saying is that if government as  parents cannot provide  or create a safe and free environment for children to play  with the hope that they would have the liberty to develope appropriately, then any form of abuse by the parent as government must be guarded against. The metaphor  for protecting the vulnerable people Government is to a county and citizens just as parents are to their kids. Does it ring a bell now into their head about proper parenting skills and the moral responsibility of parents to ensure that their children are well nurtured in a safe and peaceful environment? How dare  they  blame children for being corrupt when their government did not offer the choice for them to be righteous in their behavior. Instead their government used every covet means to render a sense of morality irrelevant by empowering criminals or rewarding those who do wrong. What has become of cognitive perceptions in upbringing? Corrupt leaders most definitely inspire corrupt citizens or followers until someone with the moral compass,  moral clarity and moral consciousness  and moral audacity comes forward  to differ from the rest. Then at that point all hell broke loose! Framing up children to grow up corrupt is dangerously evil and misleading To me , this is even yet another crime against innocent children who have been poisoned with corruption right from birth by an inept government. The CPDM regime and Party intentionally created a corrupt environment in order to destroy Cameroonians with their bad blood political system. It is a very bad blood government that nobody  in their normal senses should identify with. This is even punishable by the life sentence penalty with the possibility of no parole because they did  it on purpose. I will seek the life sentence penalty for all these CPDM officials if the investigation shows that the corruption is intentionally enabled. Of course it is very true following the statements of Mr Paul Biya in favor of his Prime Minister. It is alleged that Mr Paul Biya said, his PM did not steal too much  money  as compared to others.So for that simple reason , he was not liable to be charged for corruption, embezzlement and other corrupt crimes. The CPDM regime, Party and their President are enablers of corruption and have collectively ruined the destiny and future of our children in Cameroon born under their reign of corruption, terror and gross violation of human rights of Cameroonians. When we are focused on ways to solve a problem, those who are the initiators must do everything to blame the victims. The Cameroonian people did not ask the leaders of Cameroon to encourage, enable and allow corruption. Human beings are born into this world with a sinful nature but everyone has an opportunity to make an about turn , what we call a U-TURN or TRANSFORMATION and it takes various dimensions depending on who, where, where, when, how and for what purpose one was born and raised. Mr Paul Biya and all his fellow CPDM people had at least one of their parents as a moral figure in their lives who either influenced them negatively or positively. Their church, school and community was not left out in their upbringing and must have played a very vital role in  their lives. So, what became of their childhood days in Cameroon and how could they forget that they were once kids? There is no other better way to solve the endemic corruption in Cameroon and among Cameroonians other than to start enforcing the constitution of Cameroon under law. I have already suggested very clearly what steps we must take to build a virtuous and free Cameroon. Those measures must be taken into consideration ,which include but not limited to change of President and the system of government. When we change these two things, we will replace them with a new generation of Cameroonians who will rise up to the moral standards we  deserve in order to give a new face lift to Cameroon and Cameroonians. This is what I am working towards because there is concrete evidence to support any claims against the  criminal and immoral regime of the CPDM regime ,which has tolerated and enable evil , injustice and corruption as a means of moral escapism. Again it means that when they steal 100 millions frs CFA and someone steals 1000 frs CFA according to the CPDM regime, everyone is a thief by that action whereas it is only a ploy  for self-defense and narrow escape from accountability. The truth is, all CPDM government officials who have taken loans and never paid back as well as failed to declare their assets according to article 66 should be charged with serious crimes and obliged to pay back all stolen and ill gotten wealth. If anyone of them have directly or indirectly caused the moral  downfall of any Cameroonian child by their corrupt influence, they should be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. We need real rigor and moralization in that Cameroon and among Cameroonians and we  will do it. It is only a matter of time.  THE CPDM PEOPLE MUST STOP BLAIMING THEIR VICTIMS and respect our constitution especially article 66, which calls for all government officials to declare their assets. This is the constitution and article 66 is well embedded into it. The possible names of such individuals who have stolen loans and never to pay will be forwarded to the International Community very soon.
