PEACE !
Cheers, Dear Readers! 2008 brings peace, hope and joy to all hardworking
Cameroonians.
Our hearts are warmed by your encouraging letters and suggestions. We expect more
as we continue to publish your favourite E-Magazine.
In the midst of conflicts and violence in Africa, Cameroon is blessed and
privileged to be a land of Peace. Peace, a treasure that all must endeavour to
keep as we strive for sustainable development. Together, like our dear
indomitable lions, we will score victories against all sufferings linked to
underdevelopment.
Despite progress in several countries, we watch with concern the difficulties
still faced by some African countries to achieve democratic governance. Kenya is
just another addition to the existing cases. For this issue, we rush to
Washington DC to get hold of two Cameroonianborn success stories who have been
working tirelessly for almost two decades in the areas of democratic governance
and conflict management in Africa. Dr. Chris Fomunyoh is the Regional Director
for Central and West Africa at the National Democratic Institute for
International Affairs in Washington DC, while Ms. Ozong Agborsangaya-Fiteu is
the Senior Program Manager for Africa at Freedom House in Washington DC. Both
have contributed significantly to transition in some African countries.
We also praise another hardworking Cameroonian musical talent Richard Bona, now
famous around the world.
Our Home News pages take you across recent happenings in Cameroon that might
affect our economy positively in the near future. We join in celebrating the
performances of the Indomitable Lions in the MTN African Cup of Nations in
Ghana. We can’t hide our admiration for Tiko United Football Club that is
putting up a laudable performance in the MTN Elite One Football Championship in
Cameroon.
Congratulations and Best Wishes to Nya and Armstrong as both celebrate their
wedding. A look into matters arising in relationships brings out reasons that
would make a man to marry and what often happens if his woman treats him nicely.
A rise in BabyMoons in the West brings us back to how our mothers cross oceans
just to pamper their daughters as the latter bear babies.
We give our support to the Limbe Wildlife Centre as it rehabilitates endangered
wildlife. We also praise AFRICAPHONIE for releasing educative telefilms that
touch on topical social issues like Female Genital Mutilation and HIV/AIDS. We
invite married couples to register for the upcoming Married Couples
3-Days’ Event scheduled for Seme Beach Hotel in June 2008. We also invite
our readers to keep on voting for the nominees of the Success Story
Readers’ Award 2008.
Do join us at the FLAVOURS RESTAURANT for a meal of ACHU.
