The Chiefs in the good old days of West Cameroon were people of high repute. They were respected by their subjects because they were apolitical. The House of Chiefs was created therefore to an advisory instance of the other branches of the state of West Cameroon. The House of Chiefs was constitutionally NOT a partisan institution. Then came La Republique Du Cameroun- LRC. The Chiefs and Fons have been transformed into “Nchindas” of Biya. They spend their time writing and shouting motions of support, thanks, immortality, wishes, congratulations and prayers to Biya.
Like subjects in kingdoms like Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Lesotho and many others, these so-called Fons and Chiefs always wish that their so-called FON of FONS lives and outlives the oldest person that ever lived. They even send Biya motions of immortality. They wish that Biya should live forever. He should be like the Almighty GodNo wonder Colonial administrators from LRC do not have any respect for Southern Cameroonian CHIEFS and FONS. These so-called traditional rulers have themselves to blame for their predicaments. They have sold their consciences to LRC in exchange for a few marginal and ephemeral favours. These so-called Custodians of the traditions of their ancestors were not even ashamed to desecrate the same traditions in order to please the Dictator in Etoudi.
The NW Fons shamelessly awarded the brutal Dictator, Paul Biya, the title of FON OF FONS.
The emeritus President of the North-West Fons, Teche, recently sent a motion of support to Biya thanking him for his excellent management of the Anglophone Problem. He even went further to beg Biya to take another seven years as President. However, this so-called Fon did not have the balls to remind Biya that innocent Southern Cameroonians have been kidnapped and taken to Kondengui. He did not have the courage to tell Biya to release the leaders of SC who are unjustly being held in prison awaiting trial because of trumped-up charges. He did not have the wisdom to tell Biya that the latter’s cosmetic solutions will never resolve the impasse.These so-called traditional rulers have been used by the Etoudi Junta to stifle the liberation struggle of their own people as championed by their youths.
Most, if not all, of these so-called traditional rulers, have shamelessly mortgaged their consciences to the Etoudi oligarchy by accepting membership of the CPDM crime syndicate. Most of them have now become members of Biya’s election rigging syndicate.
These so-called traditional rulers have refused to positively team up with their subjects for the improvement of the lot of Southern Cameroons and of their people, They prefer rather to stand in the way of their subjects by actively thwarting the latter’s efforts in exchange for a few marginal and ephemeral favours from LRC.
These so-called SC Chiefs and Fons are a disgrace to humanity. They should be ashamed of themselves. In my opinion, there is no moral justification for Southern Cameroonians to create a House of Chiefs for the present generation of Chiefs and Fons after we reach Buea. They do not deserve such an honour. They lack the moral authority to represent their people. It is legitimate therefore to consider the Chiefs and Fons of SC as ” les enemies dans la maison, les traites”. They always work against their own people in order to please Biya.

Any Ambazonia who see these chameleon Fons /chiefs as of importance to their villages/ towns and the interest of their people must be ignorant foolishness,there are just a hand full of dedicated so call village heads who care about their people,unfortunately they are scared of the french regime,they stay silence, poor because they are targeted by those who sideline the biya regime,the majority have been compromised,become weak slave beggars from the french Cameroon for over 58 years, look at the state of their embarrassing slum,dirty villages?there has been no development,no availability of well paid jobs opportunities in all the villages in SW/NW regions for 58 yers,these leaders for decades have held and bullied their people with bribery,witchcraft practices and all their fake powers,many people have low self-esteem,tolerated being bullied in Cameroon so much so that they have accepted the actions of the uncaring, bribe taking evil forces (army and police) biya, elites, Fons, Chiefs to control and own their lives while staying powerles,the entire Cameroon will never change positively,Ambazonians must fight, take this opportunity to disengage completely with French Cameroon’s malpractices of colonial subjugation, the french Cameroon regime is a disgraceful colonial french slave run by unpatriotic men and women who serves France interest not their people
He is on the kill list.
Very soon, he will be thanking the devil for managing his life very well.
Nasty animal.
Where is the kill list? In the West?
EVERY SLAVE CHIEFS/FONS IN AMBAZONIA WHOSE JOB IS TO SELL OUT THEIR OWN PEOPLE, MUST BE ERADICATED AS A MATTER OF PRIORITY. WE ARE AT WAR, WE CANNOT HAVE THESE SCUMS, TITLED CHIEFS/FONS MOVING AROUND FREELY HELPING THE EVIL REGIME TO TERMINATE THE LIVES OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE THEY CLAIM TO REPRESENT JUST FOR A FEW PENNIES. IT IS MUCH WISER TO GET RID OF THESE FOOLS THAN TO ALLOW THEM TO CONTINUE LIVING WHILE THROUGH THEM SO MANY PEOPLE ARE KILLED.
Wonders shall never end! However, the more we look closely, the clearer it becomes as to how this Beti french slave call Biya has really refined the art of corruption to the extent that many in his company only think with their stomachs rather than with their brains.
How can these chiefs be so indifferent in the face of overwhelming criminalities from these LRC hoodlums call army?
Wow, wow, wow. You can say whatever you like about the situation back “home”, but to claim that it’s been well-managed? I look at this guy’s face and I want to vomit. The default will be to remove all of these crooks, and restore our House of Chiefs and Fons once we’ve cleared the occupiers from our land. Only those who can show that they stood with us should remain. My take is that we either lead these traitors to the boundary with LRC and leave them there with only what they’re wearing, never to return. Or they be tried for crimes against us, and let the chips fall where they may. Nonsense! See what the criminality of LRC can do to our people? We should be starting our new country knowing that a lot of cleansing needs to be done. Cleansing, prayers, “country fashion”. It cannot just be business as usual. Those with a lot of contact with LRC institutionally (like CPDM and SDF politicians, etc) should have as little to do with our public life as possible, because they’ll bring with them a lot of this criminality almost as if it is in their DNA. A lot of spiritual cleansing from LRC needs to be done o, my people!!!
