The Chia Report

Cameroon - The March Forward

By Arrey Obenson*** and  edited by Innocent Chia

Since I authored a piece in The Chia Report a few weeks ago there have been a significant outpouring of commentaries and expectations. I essentially drew two conclusions from all the commentaries I received. The first is an expressed need for immediate action that will bring change to Cameroon.The second point I deduced is that people are yearning for a decisive strategy that will lead to eventual change. This follow up is intended to call on every Cameroonian to join the dialogue and take action that will bring positive change to Cameroon. We are no longer entitled to stand by as idle spectators while others make decisions that define who we are and where we are headed.

Pineapple Farm Hiring 25000 employees in Cameroon

With a spark of the match from whence revolutionary flames have been burning dramatically for the last two months in North Africa and the wider Middle East, President Biya of Cameroon began throwing teaspoons of water at his bubbling hot house. Two months to date on Cameroon’s annual national youth day, February 11th (2011), CEO Biya announced that his Pineapple Farm – the Cameroon Public Service - was going to be hiring 25000 Cameroonians. The tax-payer sponsored media – CRTV and Cameroon Tribune – have been all over heaping praises at his lordship for his foresight, benevolence, and visionary leadership. Even before the World Bank’s recent dismissal of Biya’s prank based on capacity and solvency, there are commonsensical questions that expose the propaganda for what it is.
