Imperative National Reconciliation!

Healing wounds borne out of the election and those of socio-political upheavals in some parts of the country are indispensable to unity and territorial integrity. Imperative

There is no denying the fact that Cameroon has passed through trying moments in the last years which might not have been very destructive but which could refine the country for better living if the lessons of the tribulations are well assimilated.

Although citizens live under one umbrella Cameroon and leader - Paul Biya, their cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious diversities are issues that have to be handled with tact. Safeguarding national unity in diversity is thus a challenge worth surmounting. Paul Biya proposes to continue guaranteeing cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious diversity while respecting national unity. These diversities constitute immense riches that Cameroonians need to uphold so as to advance the course of unity. Cast Out The Demon of Tribalism If there is one thing that has made life miserable for some in the country, it is the feeling and acts of superiority perpetrated by others who feel more Cameroonian than others. Some openly discriminate in areas and moments where all and sundry should have had a feeling of belonging and importance. As President Paul Biya begins yet another term of office at t...
