Letter from Buea to Yaounde

Dim., 24 Juil. 2016 Source: The Post Newspaper

Dear Mbella,

Accept greetings from Ongola. I hear the political fly that refused to listen to the advice of his elders will soon follow the corpse to the grave. He is a novice who took everything for granted when everything was stage- managed to take over power.

You see, Mbella, that is the problem with parvenus. People who could not walk yesterday now think that they can run just because they mingle with the nobles. The stolen money he has been lining his pockets with has gone up to his head. His arrogance must be butchered to size, so that he does not cause more damage to Chop Pipo Dem Moni.

The erstwhile sick man of Europe was in the news with their own April 6. Six thousand people are in the dungeon as Erdogan is screaming for his pound of flesh. Merkel of Deutschland urged him to be lawful in dealing with this own Guerandis and Issa Adoums. But has she ever tested the ordeal of the hoodlums.

As Erdogan grappled with his governance issues, rumours killed the oga of the cabinet. The man is ailing, no doubt, but Abraham has not yet done the call. Scrambling for the throne now like the “legacy hunters” in Ben Johnson’s Volpone is counter-productive.

I pray we halt the sycophant in order not to attract international venom. It is clear that the propaganda megaphone challenged the ruling in his sophistry. But his arguments were more political than legal.

He ran his mouth, but woefully failed to counter the very grounded-ruling that picked holes with the country’s judicial system. The nchinda who is pretending t be more “royal” than the king will be sacrificed when things get sour.

Mola, there was a new way of demonstrating one’s patriotism that only cropped up last week. Condemning the Amnesty report as much as possible is a show of patriotism. The essence is sweeping under the carpet the excesses of the forces that treat every vulnerable civilian as if he or she were an enemy of the Republic. Fighting the B.H war is not easy.

It remains a very dicey situation, given that the forces are dealing with asymmetric war. - Innocent-looking girls carrying explosives on them ready to wreck havoc and claim lives. But that is no guarantee for the blind Kale Kale sweep, Mola.

Forget your ID card at home just for one minute and see how the gendarmes will treat you. You will automatically become a B.H agent in their eyes. The corrupt ones will ask for Kudi to release you.

Mola, the following anecdote will better portray the situation. The other day a man was arrested for forgetting his I.D card at home. When his wife later brought the card to where the forces had ordered him to sit in mud under the rain, the gendarme refused to look at the card and consequently refused to release him.

“L’infraction est déjà consommee.” (The crime has been committed) he said. He insisted until he exchanged the man’s freedom for FCFA 3000.They do this all in the name of fighting B.H.

That Tunisian terrorist should be now rotting in hell. He drove a killer truck into a joyous crowd celebrating the storming of the Bastille. The terrorists are learning new tactics everyday.

But give me a break, Mbella! It is difficult to say that such upsurge of terrorism is not inked to a certain religion. Why do such terrorists suspects don’t have Christian names like Samuel, John, Peter, Anthony or Emmanuel?

Let the Moslem clerics stop hoodlums from using “Allah’s name for the wrong purpose.

Allah cannot send anybody to commit such a gruesome and barbaric act that claimed over 84 lives.

Let them keep Allah’s name out of this. By committing such acts, the hoodlums can only have Lucifer as their allah and not the Almighty Allah. The cowardly act did not mar the celebrations that marked one of the most influential events in human history.

The storming of the Bastille is one of the hallmarks of the French Revolution of 1789.The Revolution was one of the most influential events that triggered a new world dispensation.

Mbella, I don’t want to tell you how much history I know.

Yours sincerely

Ngwa
