Allow Fru Ndi and Biya to tussle

Those who are urging Fru Ndi to resign are out to sell the party to the Government in power for their own selfish interest. Most of them have been promised huge chunks of money by the ruling system.

These people are not patriots because they can never die for their people. Their sole concern is money for themselves and their family. That is why they keep cross-carpeting like rats to the side of the ruling party. For example, some of them who contested Fru Ndi and failed hurriedly went and created their own parties to show how impatient, unfaithful and power-hungry they are.

Academicians and intellectuals are also busy crossing the bridge for boot-leaking. It is unconstitutional for any level-headed person to ask Fru Ndi to step down because he is not learned? How many academicians are educated? How many world leaders are PHDholders?

Fru Ndi is a highly educated person. How old is he that he must resign? How young are those who want him to step down? Is there any time limit for the Chairman in the SDF Constitution? He is an opposition leader and not the President of Cameroon. Fru Ndi is hard working and deserves to be rich. He is courageous and that’s why he had to cross the boarder line when he was launching his party in Bamenda despite the huge number of machine guns which were pointing at him.

I have never seen where a party leader is asked to step down simply because he has become rich. Is that what the Constitution says? He is the second state person and leading opposition party leader of this country with International repute. He is supposed to be on a handsome monthly pay package to enable him manifest his party affairs with ease.

It took Mandela a very long time to arrive the summit. Nothing good comes easily. I began writing creative Literature in 1987 and my first book was only published in 2005.

It isFruNdi who brought an end to extreme dictatorship and registered only death toll of six. Biya himself knows it and respects the Chairman for that.

Why do you create false motive against Fru Ndi? Being a Lawyer does not mean getting to the helm of power. They are there to protect the right of citizens. What did those of you who made money and fame in the SDF do for your people? Why are you so egoistic? How courageous and honest are you to withstand Biya’s prowess? I also want those in the Diaspora to be careful.

Living in the white man’s land doesn’t make you a good leader. It’s not because you have gathered a few dollars or Euro that you think you can take over from Fru Ndi. The CPDM Government has huge chunks of money kept aside to pull any creative and talented Cameroonian to their side. And that is why we find some University dons who left the SDF swimming in the whirlpool of the ruling Government.

They said FruNdi wasn’t as learned as they are and so they couldn’t be under him. They cross carpeted and were automatically given the title of Professor when they have not published even a single article.

Today they are robots in the pockets of the system. They are being tele-commanded like plantation slaves. Biya is a great player. If human beings could transform themselves into stone he would have long done so and live as President for life. I do not do party politics, but I use the pen to debunk human follies. SDF is not the only opposition party in Cameroon. But the scramble for leadership within that party is a clear indication that the scramblers are agents of the devil.

And immediately they receive stiff resistance from Fru Ndi, they cross-carpet, ostensibly into oblivion. President Biya is a very resistant and tactful person and I think it’s only Fru Ndi who knows where he sleeps. I also want to seize this opportunity to advise any SDF power monger both within and out of the Menchum to Contest Fru Ndi in the polls or allow him accomplish his mission.
