10 Million Francs Pledges to Renovate Burn-out Sacred Heart College Hostel: A More Reason why the Present Political System in the Cameroons must be Completely Destroyed.
In a typical elitist fashion common among men of the upper class and some bourgeoisies in the Cameroons, it was not up to 24 hours after the controversial fire incident at Secret Heart College Mankon yesterday, that we saw a list of supposed ex-students circulating on social media with a whooping total sum of 10.110 million francs pledges from them for the renovation of the destroyed hostel. This act is not only preposterously disgusting, but it evidently explicates why in a restored Southern Cameroons, the leaders must ensure that the present political status quo in the Cameroons is completely decimated and if possible, apply the Gerry Rawlings strategy to clean the system.
It is very shameful that in a series of schools touched by arsonists, Secret Heart College is the only one that has gotten the attention of “nobbles” including that of the colonial governor.
The list of pledgers, which constitute names of high profile regime barons in the name of ex-students, does not appear to be a list of genuine generous and philanthropic parents who desire to see ALL children in the polity acquire decent education, but a bunch of self-seekers and political jobbers positioning themselves for recognition by the dying regime and eventually rewarded with political appointments and (or) government contracts. If their supposed benevolent action is not anchored on the above egocentric reasons, what account for the fact that since the beginning of this crisis, many educational institutions both government and private have witnessed acts of arson, but without any attention or support from such individuals? Why is it only Sacred Heart College Mankon that is receiving such noble attention?
How many burned-out schools in the North West and South West Regions have the colonial governors visited and upgraded security? Why did BIR officers not clear grasses in All the schools? What happens to the security of students of BCHS Nkwen, St. Paul’s College, GHS Mbunjo and many others? Who shall renovate their own destroyed classrooms and dormitories? Why only Sacred Heart College? Is it because it is their core interest that has been touched? What are this big men telling us the common masses?
Do not get us wrong, remember that no one is against “acts of generosity” expressed by ex-students. We are simply analyzing things as they present themselves. This is a clear case to show that this system is design and tailored just for the safety and survival of the political class. That is why schools like Sacred Heart College Mankon which is mostly for the children of political and state bureaucrats shall continue to receive the first and best attention in such times, while those of the common people remain open for attacks. If power truly belongs to the people, then it is time to completely destroy such a system and build another that thrives on equity, narrowing the gap between the upper and lower classes in our society.

These are exactly the type of behavior, actions we want to eradicate. I don’t want to be with people that function like this. We want a nation were the system takes care of everyone and not only some few who then try to rush in and pretend to play God.
Our fight is not for only our children in some special schools, we are fighting for ever single Ambazonian any where in Ambaland.
Such one man show is retarded reasoning and functioning, and is exactly what has buried African and it people into retardation. Pure primitive reasoning. Such thing are not known in the civilized world but only where some people reason like monkeys.
For me, this is bull shit, I don’t give a fuck how much money they pledge. Just imagine a nation where in situation like this there are already law and system that kick in and take care of things, now need for someone trying to show.
I want to live in a nation that is not dependent on the well being of some few, on the charity of a chosen group of people, on the pity of exactly those who are the source of all the problems.
I want to live in a nation that I know, I will be given the same basic opportunity just as ever other person in that nation.
Such actions is the foundation of the demise, backwardness, failure, underdevelopment, weakness, incompetence, lack of respect of African and Africans all over this world.
We want a system, not people, and this is why we are fighting.
Mr. Agbor thank you for an excellent article. As painful as these inconsistencies are, the fact remains that ‘Truth crushed to the earth will rise up one day”. These soulless buffoons who spend their time glorifying an irrelevant Beti thuggish regime will answer for their excesses soon.
How is possible that in this age and time, some still believe that the lives of some are important than the of others?
Those so called elites are a shame for our society. We need to eradicate those habits in us. We shall build our nation on different values. Humanity, open and fair political discussions, accountability of leaders, non corruption and so on. I don’t see anybody in that state today who trusts in the institutions. The polical class is just interested to exploid as much money as possible out of that state. It starts from top level with master criminal Biya and goes down to ordinary Boko police along the road. We need to separate from that sick country called la Republique.
All these comments tell me how brainwashed we have become. What do you guys mean by ” ELITES” this is a reprasive and should never be used. This is direct result of biya’s witchcraft. I went to Bilingual grammar school in Mam Of War Bay under Ahidjo. It was the best high school in the nation and possibly in the world. You got it by your intelligence and high scores in fairly and justly administered EXAMS. ( not BRIBERY OR CHEATING) Sacrd Heart College was nothing then. Instead of complaining and always presenting problems, why don’t we suggest solutions. Here are mine: Go to the website and make bogus donations: Hack it: List the donors. CPC Bali SASSE, Saker Baptist also have alumni, who the fuck are these sacred alumni are they Catholic priests? Let’s focus on the struggle to the end and keep an eye on traitors. Our education will return to the way of West Cameroon that Ahidjo copied from us with our GCE from London. We will give scholarships to the best and brightest, regardless of income or class. No more “elites” call them crooks, dogs, cheats, liars and thieves
:
Sacred heart is a fake school and all their fake 100% GCE results were fake and manipulated by the government due to their loyalty to Paul Biya and for being a sellout to the people of Ambazonia. The types of jobs we will give ex students of Sacred Heart in Ambazonia will only be in the sectors of digging wells and cleaning latrines.
Atem Bakia I love your comment. My brother went to that dawn school when it just opened, then they were admitting mainly Catholics. Now biya’s bandits are the main customers. Take pictures of those national bank robbers, a monument will be built in honour of their banditry of peoples of Southern Cameroons
strongly agree with you Atem Bakia, the entire Southern regions is militarised,all the smart SCs can see that biya’s BIR has burnt the Sacred Heart college down to blame the innocent people for destroying their own establishments, these mission schools must have been a blessing when they helped the less privilege before 55 years ago, unfortunately the evil of money has over taken the churches, they are not practicing what they preach anymore,they have stood silence and watched millions of their bright,educated SCs students migrate abroad because of the corrupt,unjust lrc regime,the marginalisation even in the majority of admission from the francophone elites children into their own English educational establishments,they have watched the brutalities, deaths of poor civilians from their own congregations,their churches allocate front row seats for these same devils to donate huge sums of bribes in baskets,to keep them quiet,their own clergy men are being killed for speaking against the biya regime, they are stock, they are losing confidence in their many true believers, it is all coming out,for years they have been comfortable dinning with the devils, those so called slum elites pledging to build the burnt out college are all tied with the evil regime who just cause self destruction,goes to show how a building is more important to these so called elites than the loss of lives taken away by biya’s regime asking for freedom of Human Rights
