Image
President Paul Biya Of Cameroon PAUL BIYA, PRESIDENT and HEAD OF STATE of Cameroon clocks 90 years of age today February 13, 2023. What Grace and gift of life! But wait a moment. PAUL BIYA came to this world on the 13th day of February 1933. Little wonder for the Grace upon his life. In numerology, the sacred number 13 is considered to be very karmic. It is associated with the divine, and is said to bring good luck and prosperity to those who embrace it. Contrary to other beliefs, many people believe strongly that the number 13 brings about change, which can often lead to a positive outlook. Paul Biya’s leadership is a pure reflection and revelation of the positivity of the number 13. PRESIDENT PAUL BIYA’s innate ability to steer the ship of the state from murky waters unperturbed for over 40 years and still counting, and at the age of 90, is not an accident.

According to the chauffeurs, apart from being forced at gun point to cough up huge sums to satisfy their ever increasing hunger for money, the soldiers stationed along that road have been calling them names and using hate language on them. We pay more than 30.000FCFA each to these soldiers per day from Bamenda to EKOK. Just from Bamenda town to Mile 90 Nsongwa, a distance of less than 4KMs, there are eight security checkpoints and we spend 8000FCFA each every blessed day. In Bali,they are two control points and we drop 2000FCFA each. After 2pm, they will tell you it's a new team meaning we still have to give money, this is really bad,  said Yanick, a driv...
