Four SCNC Members Wanted In Kumba For Alleged Terrorism

There are reports that four well known members of the  Southern Cameroons National Council SCNC , have been declared wanted in  the city of  Kumba, South West region, Cameroon.  They are wanted for alleged crimes relating to terrorism.
Those wanted are  Fon Gilbert , Tchamon Encho,  Encho Ngemou Mathias  Tagi Emmanuel Encho and many other SCNC members and sympathisers.
These suspects are currently on the run after they were hinted of an imminent arrest by security operatives attached to the Kumba gendarmerie.

The prime suspect Fon Gilbert , has been an SCNC member since 2008 and has frequently carried out activities of the SCNC in Kumba. In early 2016, he spearheaded a public demonstration, protesting the continual arrest and detention of SCNC members by the Biya regime, some of which have spent  years in detention without trial.  At the same period , Fon Gilbert and his cohorts planned to hoist SCNC flags in strategic locations in Kumba town.
Speaking on condition of anonymity , a member of SCNC said a security personnel who understands that protesting for a legitimate cause is a democratic right  and who has seen nothing wrong with the activities of SCNC , tipped them about their impending arrests and also told them that arrest warrants have been issued to specifically make sure that they arrest  Fon Gilbert. There are reports that some top government officials will stop at nothing to see him arrested and persecuted for what they termed an act of terrorism.

The suspects have since escaped to unknown destinations and all efforts to reach them has proven futile.Their family members now live in fear, they fear the very unpredictable.
It should be noted that SCNC is a movement that seeks the sovereignty of Southern Cameroons from La Republique du Cameroun. And over the years, many SCNC activists have suffered undue arrest, torture and imprisonment, for a fight against total dominance.

With the recent happenings in Southern Cameroons, it’s becoming extremely dangerous to be an SCNC member living in those regions.
Once arrested , you face lengthy jail time without any form of trial as in the case of  Oben Maxwell, an SCNC bigwig who has been in detention for over 33 months, whereas the law stipulates that such custody should not exceed 6 months. A big slap to the rule of law and due process.
How long will this continue to happen? That is a question that only members of the Biya regime can answer.

Cameroonian parents are very smart. They tell lies to get their children on the obedience path or to look really good in their eyes. Children on the other hand are inquisitive and gullible.
Perfect recipe right? Here are some of the common lies Cameroonian parents tell their children:

1. If you tell me the truth, I won’t touch you You tell them and then get the beating of your life.
2. I will buy you a bicycle if you come first in class. When you get that first position,  they will remind you of everything they bought for you since you were born.
3. Lend me money, I will give you back. When you ask to get the money back, you will hear the real story of your life.
4. Bring me any problem, I will solve it for you. Give them a hard problem to solve and they will give you different excuses or they will blame your teacher for not teaching you well.
5. Don’t play with boys or you will get pregnant: This is so hilarious and common. Most Cameroonian parents tell their female children this lie to prevent them from ‘danger’.

6. Tell the person at the door I am not at home: “My daddy said I should tell you that he is not at home” usually gives away the lie to the visitor.
7. If you work hard, you will get a gift from ‘Father Christmas’.  American movies and this lie have made some Cameroonian kids wait to receive gifts at their doorstep on Christmas day but sadly ,  they  never receive it.
8. I have counted all the meat and one is missing. Some mothers tell this one to catch an unsuspecting ‘soup raider’.
9. When I was your age I always took 1st position in class. If every parent took first, who came second?
10. When I was your age, I sponsored myself through school.

 Which school? Where is the certificate? But again wasn’t education free back in the day?

Will Smith Plays Nigerian Doctor in New Movie

Debuting a trailer for a Will Smith movie in the middle of a Sports Illustrated column isn’t exactly Hollywood marketing 101, but for Concussion, a drama about head injuries in the N.F.L., it’s oddly fitting. 


The film is based on the true story of Dr. Bennet Omalu, the Nigerian-born forensic pathologist who first identified the devastating impact of repetitive head injuries on N.F.L. players. It’s a fairly traditional Hollywood story of injustice and “David versus Goliath,” as writer-director Peter Landesman puts it in hisSports Illustrated interview, but with a grim twist—even a decade after Omalu’s discoveries, head injuries areonly occasionallydiscussed with the same passion as, say, Deflategate. (The ongoing New England Patriots scandal, fittingly enough, actually gets top billing in the column where the Concussiontrailer debuted.)
Get your first look at the trailer below:


Concussion can be pretty accurately marketed as “The movie the N.F.L. doesn’t want you to see,” and with Smith in the lead role and a plum December 25 release date, it has all the makings of a big four-quadrant holiday smash. But will the same people who just spent all of Thanksgiving Day watching professional football be ready to see the sport’s undeniable dark side? While we wait for that answer, read the GQ storyon which the film was based—though it might make it a little harder to enjoy N.F.L. opening day a few weeks from now.
