BaretaNews Statement

Cameroonians are always edgy that each time a government has the authority to mandate policy or law without the will of the people. It’s a good thing for the right reasons but a dangerous precedence. Why would Cameroonians be forced to take a medical test against their wish? If the government can mandate this, can they also mandate women mutilation? Can they also mandate child birth restrictions per family? Wealth redistribution? Prison sentence, polygamy or monogamy? etc where do we draw the line? Good policy. ..Unacceptable procedure! ! Cameroon Obosso….Njukang Asong.

God is still saying something.
