Bamenda: Government Delegate On Bended Knee Begging For Peace To Return.

By Raymond Dingana.

The Government Delegate to the Bamenda City Council, Vincent Ndumu Nji has used the installation ceremony of the new SDO for Mezam, Mr. Mooh Emile Simon, to plead for peace to return to the two Anglophone Regions of Cameroon. Vincent Ndumu Nji went down on his knees at the Bamenda Commercial Avenue Grand Stand, Tuesday October 22, 2019 calling on the population to return to the life they were living three years ago before the crisis showed its ugly face in 2016. Read Him:
“In the North West, many were mining sand and doing petit businesses, tilling the soil among others just to feed their families. Today, going to Bambui, Ndop, Fundong, Nkambe, Wum and many others is not an easy task. I am begging you people, let us invite God in to our hearts and forget about this crisis. Government will handle the problem and even if all the problems are not handled, it’s not enough for us to treat human beings like a cow taking to be slaughtered. Our children are not going to school; we have killed people, burnt houses. No matter how angry we are, let us think about ourselves as human beings. There are problems everywhere but I have never seen a situation where to solve a problem, we behead your own brothers and sisters, killing them like animals. I am begging with tears in my eyes on behalf of the population, we are very hard working people, we don’t know what has happened to us, we can solve our problems without kidnapping, torturing, killing, burning houses and preventing kids from going to school”.
Though many appreciated the effort of the Government Delegate to the Bamenda City Council to see in to it that, peace returns to the two Anglophone Regions of the country, he also came under fire from those who think he was bias in his outing by not denouncing both sides for the atrocities that are being committed on a daily basis. A school of thought holds that, he spoke as if the atrocities that are being committed are coming from one side in the armed conflict which to them is not the case.
