Far North: 1000 Die of Malaria

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-The upsurge of malaria in the Far North region has been attributed to the people not using mosquito nets. In a meeting with health officials of the region chaired by Andre Mama Fouda, the Minister of Public Health, it was disclosed that only 30 percent of the population use the mosquito bed net which is one of the weapons of choice against malaria.

Mama Fouda confirmed that close to 1000 persons have died and over 200 000 cases of the endemic disease have been recorded.

Far Northerners Ignore Mosquito Bed Nets

Health structures in the region are too small to contain the huge influx of patients causing others to receive treatment sleeping under trees and on bare floors in hospitals.

Malaria remains the greatest health problem in Cameroon and Africa South of the Sahara as a whole.

The statistics of the malaria scourge on the continent are startling. It is said that malaria kills one person on the continent every 30 seconds and cripples so many of its youth. Yearly, between 350 and 500 million people are infected with malaria, and over one million die from the disease. Economically, malaria has remained the bane of Africans as it has stunted the growth of most economies with the resultant effect of widespread poverty.

In Cameroon, the statistics are scaring. Malaria is the major public health problem that is responsible for 30 percent of admissions in hospitals and 45 percent deaths in health units. It also represents 42 percent of the morbidity of children aged less than five. 26 percent of sick leaves by civil servants and other workers in the country are also due to malaria, while households lose 40 percent of their annual incomes to the treatment of the disease.

This bleak situation has been accentuated over the years by the overwhelming poverty in the country which makes it difficult for most people to effectively treat themselves.

Breaking! SDF To Join Biya’s Union Gov’t

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-A union government with a representation of all the major political parties which emerged from the September 30 twin local elections, this newspaper has been reliably informed, is what President Biya is searching for. The opposition and the governing party working together for the betterment of Cameroon and its peoples we were told by our sources, is the guiding post of the initiative.

Fru Ndi and Biya met in Bamenda in 2010

The president’s biggest challenge our sources say, is to bring the Social Democratic Front-SDF, the leading opposition party in Cameroon on board.

Such a union government would make a lot of sense if the SDF comes in.

Emissaries will soon meet SDF bigwigs to discuss the matter.

The move should follow recognition by government of SDF’s proposals for the improvement of the lot of Cameroonians which can only be implemented if they join the union government.

Above all, President Biya’s ambition for a union government is aimed at showing the world his attainment of genuine democracy within Cameroon.

Unconfirmed reports have it that the SDF is contemplating accepting the offer; if this happens in December as is widely expected, it will be a big Christmas gift.

Emissaries to be dispatched to discuss the matter with SDF militants owe their mission to assurances that they know some staunch SDF supporters who are ready to accept the offer.

Chairman Fru Ndi of the SDF recently met with Martin Belinga Eboutou President Biya’s Director of Cabinet to discuss what the chairman termed “issues of supreme interest of the state”.

After their encounter this year, Chairman Fru Ndi changed gears, going back on his declaration that the SDF would boycott the Senatorial elections in Cameroon and that his boys would come out with machetes to butcher.

Pundits say Chairman Fru Ndi who has always threatened to sack from the SDF any supporter who joins the government could also change gear and join himself this time around. After all, pundits add, the motive is also the supreme interest of the state

We gathered that if Chairman Fru Ndi maintains his position of the SDF not joining government, the emissaries will turn to influential supporters of the SDF party frustrated after the September 30 local twin polls.

The SDF party emerged with 18 deputies in parliament and 21 councils from the local twin September 30 polls.

The Cameroon Democratic Union (CDU) of party of Adamou NdamNjoya we learnt will also be contacted by the emissaries. Ndam Njoya has always maintained his position of never joining the government of President Biya, arguing that it serves no purpose as it will be of no impact. The CDU has four seats in parliament and seven councils.

Apart from the SDF, and CDU, the emissaries could also meet officials of the CRM - the Cameroon Renaissance Movement party of Maurice Kamto. The MRC secured one MP in the National Assembly - Lazare Soub from Wouri East although they won no council.

The Union of the Peoples of Cameroon (UPC) we have been informed, is ready to accept president Biya’s offer of a union government. A recent Yaounde meeting ( which took place on Saturday, November 02, 2013) chaired by Hogbe Nlend gave many the impression that the groundwork is being laid for UPC’s return to government with Hogbe Nlend who served as Minister of Scientific Research from 2002-2007 likely to represent the party in the administration. It is also whispered that Biya wants to compensate Ndeh Ntumaza by appointing either the wife or a child in government. Frederic Kodock who left the government in 2007 was the last UPC minister who served in the Biya government. The UPC has three MPs snatched from the CPDM in the Nyong and Kelle, and has seven councils.

The MDR, the Movement for Republican Defense of Dakolle Daissala has one deputy at the National Assembly. The party is an old time ally of the CPDM. It should be recalled that in 1992, the party gave the CPDM its six parliamentary seats helping it to obtain a majority in parliament.  Dakolle who is also the lone senator of the MDR we have been told, would not refuse to join the government; after all, he has already served both as Minister of Posts and Telecommunications, and as Minister of Transport.

The National Union for Democracy and Progress, NUDP of Maigari Bello Bouba with 5five MPs and 15 councils is an ally of the governing CPDM party.

Gregoire Owona, President Biya’s man of contact with opposition figures met Thursday October 31 with Issa Tchiroma, the Minister of Communication and President of the Cameroon National Salvation Front party. Nothing filtered out of the meeting which took place in the latter’s office at the ministry, but speculation is rife that their discussions were related to the imminent government. Tchiroma who is the government’s spokesman has declared that only President Biya masters the criteria for the appointment of members of government. He lost the local elections in his native Garoua, and is contented with a senator appointed by the Head of State last April.

Twin Election Aftermath: Ndansi Condemns Massive Rigging, Looks Toward 2018

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-Though ultimately unsuccessful in his parliamentary bid at the recent September 30 twin elections, Ndansi Elvis Nukam, the candidate of the National Union for Democracy and Progress (NUDP) for Donga Mantung West constituency has indicated he is not at all discouraged, making clear his determination to continue the struggle.

In an interview with NewsWatch in Yaounde, Ndansi who is also National Youth President of the NUDP began by thanking authorities of the state for acknowledging the necessity of creating an independent electoral body.  However, while appreciating the efforts of Elections Cameroon, he also observed that “ELECAM’s work was characterized by a plethora of shortcomings”.

Ndansi Pulled Crowds During Campaigns

According to Ndansi, the 2013 ballot in Cameroon was no different from previous polls. Observing that the electoral process starts from registration to the day of voting, he pointed to what he described as the glaring faults of the recent polls.  “If we can ameliorate issues on the day of registration but cannot do so on the day of voting, it means the process is not complete and when any one part fails to function well, the entire system crumbles”.

Ndansi Elvis also highlighted inadequacies with the biometric system that had touted voter register with one electoral card per member of the electorate. “We discovered that there were names of people that had two voters’ cards. Even ELECAM as well as the German company to which Cameroon sublet the contract, failed to do the job while using the taxpayers’ money”.

In his opinion, for the process to have been completely biometric, there was supposed to have been a central filtration system that would detect and eliminate all who attempted to register more than once. “The fact that voters with multiple electoral cards were identified means that the filtration system failed. That is an indication that even at the level of registration, the biometric system did not succeed by even up to 80%”.

ELECAM and CPDM on voting day

Ndansi Elvis castigated the elections management body ELECAM for appointing militants of the ruling CPDM as representatives at polling stations. “You had the president of the polling station appointed by ELECAM which is merely an arm of the government that used the elite of the village who are all sub section presidents of the CPDM as well as elite from elsewhere belonging to the CPDM imported by ministers and the like”. As Ndansi went on to reveal, of all the opposition parties that submitted the names of their militants so they could be appointed to similar posts, the request of none was granted with “Misaje being a visible example”.

He also faulted ELECAM’s choices on other grounds: “How can you take a butcher from the slaughter house in Misaje and put in the polling station, calling him the representative of the administration? What does he know about administration?” Ndansi questioned.

The NUDP National youth president insinuated that once the polling station had been thus constituted, it became a terrorist group vis-à-vis all those who showed up to vote. “They terrorized the voters; everybody there was a member of the elite, everybody was an influential person – no voter could speak. Even the polling agents of other political parties were suppressed”.

For Ndansi, all these also facilitated the rigging machinery that was put in place by the CPDM; it was easy for ballot boxes to be stuffed and for some ballot papers not to be given to electors. It was also easier for people to continue campaigning at polling stations while the ballot papers of some political parties could be bought at just a few metres from polling stations. “The entire rigging machinery that used to be in place in the days of the National Elections Observatory (ELECAM’s predecessor) was still operational - nothing had changed”.

The way forward

Though luck did not simile on Ndansi, he maintained that this electoral setback is temporary. “I am very comfortable with the pain and adversity I am currently going through; such difficulties will provide me with the experience that I need to achieve my dream” he said.

Ndansi however recognized that there were certain things he failed to do and vowed to correct his mistakes come 2018. “Winners never quit; I am on track - all I need to do is recognize that there are some things I did not do during this campaign which would have given me better results. So I need to focus more on the areas where I went wrong, the lessons that I learnt, the experience that I acquired. Then I will work on all these issues to make it better in 2018”.

“No one ever loses an election and says he is happy”, he observed. “I am not happy but I am not discouraged. I remain a positive person who thinks that he can use adversity as a stepping stone to success”.

CRTV’s Tabe Enonchong Wins Gold at Audivisual Grand Prix

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-Tabe Enonchong, CRTV’s ace presenter and host of the most popular talk show program, Morning Safari, has won a gold medal at the 26^th International Radio and Television Union (URTI) - the International Grand Prix.

Tabe Enonchong in Paris

Every year URTI launches the competition with a particular theme for radio and television programs as well as internet journals in its 46 member countries. This year’s theme “FRONTIERS” saw the submission of some 135 programs. CRTV had four different productions on the theme and Tabe’s program “So Far, So Near” that won gold was focused on inter-tribal marriages.

“In a country like Cameroon where there are over 280 ethnic groups and 280 different languages, we are all very different with everybody coming from whatever region. From that already, we notice ethnic differences; besides tribal distinctions, we start seeing national differences; you have people of an English background and those who are French speaking” Tabe told NewsWatch in Yaounde after receiving her award in Paris, France.

Tabe in “So Far, So Near” narrated the story of a man (Sinclaire) who leaves Bangangte, in the West Region of Cameroon for Mamfe in the Southwest Region to get a wife (Nicole).

However, inter-tribal marriage is a normal phenomenon in Cameroon. Tabe thinks as much but insists telling the normal story to transmit a message is what she did. “I looked at all the hurdles, challenges, obstacles and misconceptions about one another’s tribe and came to the conclusion that only love can make a man or woman wait for up to four years to convince their parents on their choice of a partner”.

Tabe explained that when somebody like Sinclaire who comes from Bangangte in the Nde which is in the grass-fields as well as being hilly and very cold and moves about 700km down to Mamfe which is very hot and is in the coastal zone, it means he has sacrificed to surmount major difficulties; “People must realize that you might come from very far from one another but in reality we are close because we come from the same source”.

According to the URTI International Grand Prix honoree, “if we go back to the source, we discover that we are one person, with the same ancestors, the same origin. If you are a Christian who reads the Bible you will discover that we are all sons of Adam and Eve. So differences only come later. It is only administration and politics and law that create the difference”.

Tabe assumed that fundamentally, “there is no difference between you and I, it is the physical boundaries, the languages and cultures that separate us. If we are not able to understand the other person’s culture, then we will not even understand our own. So when you understand the culture of that person, you will know that people have their own beliefs, their own likes and dislikes - but what we must do is to make sure that those differences in our cultures and beliefs should unite us instead of separating us”.

“So Far, So Near” was the only bilingual program amongst the 135 submitted and Tabe says the values highlighted in the production like love, tolerance and bilingualism are the values that URTI promotes, thus shedding light as to why she won, besides the simplicity and straightforward manner in which she told the story.

“I was told I won because the programme was simple, short and straight to the point. I said all that was necessary in 13 minutes and in simple language - clear speech, good narration and good music that was relevant to the theme. So the margin between my programme and that from Italy and Algeria that came in the 2nd and 3rd positions respectively was 21 points”, she said.

Her inspiration

“I have always been worried at the way we live in Cameroon these days”, Tabe says, adding that she has a friend (Dr Dze Ngwa) who always says we are so conscious of the ‘THEY’ and the ‘US’. We always like to say it is ‘THEY’, ‘US’, ‘YOU PEOPLE’… “It is not a very good spirit for a country that has gone more than 50 years down the lane”, the Morning Safari host believes.

“I intended to even get an anthropologist to talk on that program but given the time constraints, I could not lay hands on one. But I played the role of an anthropologist in my narration so as to be able to explain the behaviours of Sinclaire and Nicole - why they behaved the way they did”.

Tabe explained that over 50 years after independence, we still find it difficult seeing ourselves in the other person - we cannot accommodate the other, we always want to focus on who we are and where we come from in relation to the other. That is not necessary, we are from one source; sons and daughters of one Man, all made in His image, we are one and the same person. So, if we could stop this syndrome of the ‘THEY’ and ‘US’ and start thinking of ‘WE’, we would get to know that frontiers are only in our imagination.

As regards her feelings when she was informed her production had won gold, Tabe said “I was surprised because I did the program in three days. I was told about the program in the first week of August but I didn’t want to do it. In the third week of August, my boss called me on a Monday and reminded me that the deadline was on Thursday…”

The CRTV ace presenter said that for the sake of obedience she decided to do it: “So I called Shifu Ngala who as I always tell people, is my brain. He pondered and proposed that I should do something about marriage”.

Though Tabe came back home the same day and wrote the script in less than 30 minutes, she never had someone to talk to. She saw the need of an anthropologist but could not lay hands on one. “I remembered a couple I know: Sinclaire and Nicole. I then met them and interviewed them separately”. Though surprised that she won gold with a production she “drafted”, Tabe thinks it is just a good way of celebrating her eleven years of service as a journalist. “I was surprised but I said to myself, “I have worked for eleven years - that will be a good way to celebrate an anniversary”. We are not like military people who are given epaulettes but in our profession when you win a medal like that, it means someone somewhere has realized that you have moved higher and it is a way of motivating you”.

‘So far so near’ Tabe says, is just an awareness program in which she tries to portray that despite socio-cultural differences, Cameroonians are one. “50 years after independence, we should not be talking about Anglophones, Francophones, the Bamendas… it is high time we start thinking of ‘we’ not always ‘they’ because in reality when you look around, you might not be able to say who will be French speaking and who will be English speaking in the next ten years”.

‘So Far, So Near’ received URTI’s 2013 International Radio Grand Prix at a grandiose ceremony in Paris on Wednesday October 16, 2013. CRTV’s Director General, Amadou Vamoulke led CRTV’s three-man strong delegation to Paris including the honoree.

Tabe has become the second Cameroonian to have won gold at URTI after David Chuye Bunyui in 2011 with the programme – The Virgin’s Monologue. This is also the first time a country is winning gold at the competition consecutively.

Sept. 30 Twin Elections: Why the CPDM Did Not Win in Ndu

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-The Cameroon Peoples Democratic Movement, CPDM again crash-landed in Ndu during the September 30 twin polls. While the party militants in Nkambe central worked like bees in total unison to secure nectar, those of Ndu worked in dispersed ranks, making victory a farfetched dream. In spite of the improvement in the CPDM score in Ndu, the party lost the elections, thus compromising the victory obtained in Nkambe Central, since the two localities make up a joint constituency with two MPS.

In 2007, the CDPM scored 32% at the legislative elections in Ndu. At the September 30, 2013 elections, the party put up a better showing improving to 43%. Political observers are strongly of the opinion that the CPDM could have done better and might even have won in Ndu had there been the zeal to win and a concerted effort on the part of the militants.

Naomi Nfor

Some pundits argue forcefully that the stage was set for winning but was later torpedoed by some half and unworkable measures adopted by the party hierarchy in Ndu. It is being discussed in the open that the inappropriate choice of CPDM candidates and campaign team for Ndu is the main reason for the party’s waterloo in the September 30 polls.

At the legislative, it was widely believed that the candidate, Naomi Nfor, who was unfortunately brought in at the last minute did not have the charisma, popularity and political clout to call the shots and break the SDF hegemony in Ndu. Another factor that is believed to have contributed to the sanction votes in Ndu was the choice of Naomi Nfor by her uncle Hon. Kwalar who was remembered to have played a central role in the Ndu genocide.  

Prior to the election, popular CPDM loyalists like Alhadji Abdou Borno and Emmanuel Bongnjo Kwalar had done serious groundwork to secure victory for the CPDM party at the elections. However, with Ndu and Nkambe making up one constituency with two parliamentary seats, neither Emmanuel Bongnjo nor Abdou Borno could run for the legislative in Ndu given the gender quota imposed on political parties by Elections Cameroon. If this had to happen, then the male candidate for Nkambe who brought the CPDM victory in the subdivision would have been dropped in order for the CPDM list for the Donga Mantung Centre constituency to sail through the Electoral Board of Elections Cameroon.

Although Naomi Nfor was considered an unpopular, political greenhorn, observers maintain she could still have emerged victorious had the CPDM campaign team in Ndu worked as a coherent unit.

Accusing fingers have been pointed at the Ndu CPDM campaign team leader for failing to instill a collaborative spirit amongst his associates in the buildup to the polls. These pundits say the CPDM campaign team was made up of elitist politicians who abandoned the campaigns to the parliamentary candidate and the list leader for the council. These elitist politicians also failed to contribute financially to support the campaigns. Some of them claimed they had contributed to the party either at the level of Yaounde or Bamenda and could not eke out another franc at the local level.

Alhadji Abdou Borno

At the municipal elections, a bogus list of snobby politicians was also invested as councilors for the Ndu council. These councilors, most of whom live and work out of Ndu reportedly stormed Ndu in posh cars and resided in classy hotels in Ndu town rather than going into the villages to woo supporters. They persistently showed their interest for the mayoral post and overlooked the fact that they had to first of all win the council for the CPDM. They were only seen around polling stations on Election Day. As the Holy Book says, ‘seek ye first the kingdom and all other things will be added unto thee’. These reckless CPDM militants did not understand this biblical statement as they went seeking for other things (Mayoral positions) and forgot that if they had worked for the party’s victory all other things would have come.

The miscalculation on the part of the invested politicians might have stemmed from the fact that all councils in the country shall henceforth manage huge government budgets to the tune of FCFA 1 billion annually. This might have been the reason why in another municipality, a Secretary General at the Presidency went home to be elected councilor in other to keep close watch over the management of this sum and avert embezzlement in the council. 

Meantime, as regards what happened in Ndu, some of the councilors reportedly went back to their places of work after the official launch of the campaigns and only came back to vote.

Emma Kwalar: If he was the candidate?

Moreover, some of those who were on the field are said to have spent their time carrying out in-house blackmail against the list leader and other candidates on the list. Rather than contributing financially for their party to win the council, most of the councilors allegedly gathered money to buy other councilors to vote for them as mayors when they would have won the council.

It is widely believed that it was because of the in-house fighting, blackmail, and the change of candidates at the last minute by the CPDM central committee that the electorate sanctioned the CPDM in Ndu.

Pontiff to Visit Cameroon in the Months Ahead - Issa Tchiroma

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-The Minister of Communication and government spokesman, Issa Tchiroma Bakary recently revealed that Pope Francis will pay an official visit to Cameroon in the months ahead. Though the government spokesman in the course of a press conference in Yaounde on October 31, 2013 did not give a date for the visit, he disclosed that during the official visit of the president of the republic to the Vatican from October 16-25, 2013, “the Head of State, His Excellency Paul Biya invited Pope Francis to pay an official visit to Cameroon and Pope Francis accepted the invitation”.

Issa Tchiroma Bakary

Describing the official visit of the Cameroonian Head of State to the Vatican as successful, Mr Tchiroma observed that it had further built the image of Cameroon abroad “since as we are all aware, the Pope is the most heard, informed and consulted personality in the world”.

The government spokesman said Cameroon is well known amongst the over one hundred and eighty countries with which the Vatican shares diplomatic relations as a land of tolerance and pacific coexistence between cultures and religions. “And on the African continent, Cameroon is one of the rare countries many times visited by the heads of the Vatican who are also heads of the Roman Catholic Church”.

During an official visit to Cameroon in 2009, the former head of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Benedict XVI described the country as  the “land of hope for central Africa”.

Minister Tchiroma also used the press conference to eulogize all actors of the September 30, 2013 municipal and legislative elections in Cameroon for the successful organization of the elections. “Apart from minor shortcomings recorded here and there, (which were fortunately quickly corrected), all the polling materials were made available on time by ELECAM, supported in this by the relevant public administration”.

According to Mr Tchiroma, Cameroonians on their part should be credited for massively going to the polls to cast their votes in total order, discipline, citizenship awareness, responsibility and loyalty, the result of which was an impressive participation rate of seventy-seven percent.

Though his ‘opposition’ Cameroon National Salvation Front (FSNC) won neither a parliamentary seat nor a council at the recent elections, the FSNC chairman, Cameroon Minister of communication hailed the emergence of new political parties on the political landscape of Cameroon as well as the powerful emergence of women at both the National Assembly (lower house of parliament) and at municipal level. “In fact, out of the one hundred and eighty parliamentarians of our National Assembly, fifty-six women will sit in, representing a percentage rate of 31.12% as against 13.88% during the last legislature”, he said. For him, the diversity of male and female actors on the political landscape of Cameroon is a clear reflection of the spirit of openness and maturity of her democracy.

It is worthy of note that according to the results of the September 30, 2013 legislative and municipal elections, seven of the twenty-nine political parties that competed are represented at the National Assembly (lower house of parliament), while nine of the thirty-two political parties that were in the race for the council elections will run the 360 councils with President Paul Biya’s ruling CPDM having the lion’s share at both legislative and municipal level.

Tabenken Youths Gear up for Grand Cultural Festival in December

(NewsWatch Cameroon)-The National President of Tabenken Youths Association (TAYA) has declared that, the organization is now ready to host a grand cultural festival in Tabenken village in Nkambe central subdivision of the Donga Mantung Division in December this year.

Tamfu Arison Tamfu

“The necessary logistics have been assembled and sensitization is intensifying. I think we are now ready to travel to Tabenken village en masse for the cultural event from Dec. 29 to 1^st Jan. 2014. This is the first of its kind for TAYA and it promises to be remarkable and enriching. All youths of Tabenken in Cameroon and abroad are expected to attend the event. We expect at least 2000 youths to travel to the village for the event” said Tamfu Arison Tamfu, TAYA National President.  

He revealed that the event dubbed ‘Village convention’ will not only showcase the culture of Tabenken and Wimbum land but will also focus on the development of Tabenken village.

Mr Tamfu revealed that alongside the cultural activities at the convention, the youths will be involved in football matches, take part in an ecumenical service, acquire knowledge on human investment and most importantly, participate in actions and deliberations on how to foster the development of the village.

“It is our objective that in the nearest future we erect a Multipurpose Youth Center in Tabenken which will serve as a platform for professional training in all trades and for the promotion of academic excellence for young Tabenkenians. That is why the activities during the December Village Convention will also include a Grand Fund-raising Gala night. We will equally apply for grants from national and international donors regarding the Youth Center.  We are counting on the blessings of our beloved Fon and the support of the mother-meeting, the Tabenken Cultural and Development Association (TACUDA), administrative authorities in Donga-Mantung and people of good-will for the success of the convention” Mr. Tamfu said.

The National President was speaking weeks after Tabenken Youths Association hosted the first-ever National Urban Convention in Douala. The convention according to the president recorded a huge success in attendance and display of the culture of Tabenken with over 3000 TAYA members in attendance.

Tamfu Arison Tamfu who is also a journalist, took over the leadership of the association in June this year and has so far been praised for consolidating the unity of Tabenken youths.

“My dream as the President of the association was to rally Tabenken youths in their numbers, teach them to live in harmony, mutual respect, love and fear of God. Taking into cognizance what transpired during the Douala convention, I and the rest of the executive members have succeeded but much is yet to be done”, Mr Tamfu told NewsWatch.

The president averred that their intention is to raise the membership to 20 thousand explaining that with that number, a membership contribution of 1000 each can construct the youth center and rehabilitate bridges, schools, churches etc in Tabenken.

“We now have 18 branches nationwide and we encourage Tabenken youths to either join existing branches or create branches where they do not exist and inform the national executive committee”.

The TAYA president urged parents of Tabenken youths to encourage their children to join the association. “Parents need to play a leading role in advising their children to join the association. We also intend to foster education among Tabenken youths, especially the girls. And so far, we have secured five scholarships for members and they are now attending school in Douala. We will continue in that light. This is not mere wishful thinking - it is a dream that will come true very soon with God by our side”, said Tamfu.
