The Anglophone Cameroon Predicament

This study explores the predicament of Anglophone Cameroon - from the experiment in federation from 1961 to the political liberalisation struggles of the 1990s - to challenge claims of a successful post-independence Cameroonian integration process. Focusing on the perceptions and actions of people in the Anglophone region, Atanga argues that what has come to be called the 'Anglophone Problem' constitutes one of the severest threats to the post-colonial nation-state project in Cameroon. As a linguistic and cultural minority, Anglophone Cameroonians realised that the Francophone-led state and government were keener in assimilation than in implementing the federal and bilingual nation agreed up...

Road Companion to Democracy and Meritocracy

The Essays Are Centered On The Theme Of Democracy And Meritocracy Which The Author Believes To Be The Preconditions For Genuine Development In Africa. The Immediate Focus Of These Essays Is Cameroon, A Country Remarkable For Experimenting With French/English Bilingualism And For Having A Political Dictatorship Which Claims, Wrongly Or Rightly, To Have Transformed Itself Into A Democracy; But They Are Equally Relevant To Other Countries In Africa And Beyond. Each Of The Essays Stands Alone But They All Are Telling Various Aspects Of The Same Story From Various Angles At Various Times Using Different Modes Of Expression. --Book Jacket.

Africa's Political Wastelands: The Bastardization of Cameroon

Africa's Political Wastelands explores and confirms the fact that because of irresponsible, corrupt, selfish, and unpatriotic kleptocrats parading as leaders, the ultimate breakdown of order has become the norm in African nations, especially those south of the Sahara. The result is the virtual annihilation of once thriving and proud nations along with the citizenry who are transformed into wretches, vagrants, and in the extreme, refugees. Doh uses Cameroon as an exemplary microcosm to make this point while still holding imperialist ambitions largely responsible for the status quo in Africa. Ultimately, in the hope of jumpstarting the process, he makes pertinent suggestions on turning the tide on the continent.

A Pact of Ages

A Pact of Ages is the love story of the twin princess Omosivbhé and her lover Ofuobi rendered awry by her spirit twin sister Amakaribhé with whom they entered into a covenant to share everything before coming into the human world. The practice where slaves are groomed in the palace to accompany the king or queen to join the ancestors is the leitmotiv. The narrator tells us how these slaves are slashed or wounded with special knives and concoctions and incense rubbed on their bodies as a rite of purification before being buried alive with the dead king or queen. Will the White Man of God succeed in putting an end to these practices? Will the village Priest - custodian of customs - convince his people to see the white man in his true colours? Will he bring them to reject the white man's God? This is a tale in which the natural and the supernatural intermingle to depict the timeless, spaceless, and ageless nature of the charms, beliefs and practices of an African society.
