What will change after the restoration of the statehood of Southern Cameroons?
Everything will change for the better for all Southern Cameroonian citizens. Here are just a few of those changes that will be immediately visible to every Southern Cameroonian citizen.
1. The southern Cameroons will become a place where all citizens will have equal rights and opportunities without regard to gender, religion or tribe of origin.
2. There will be a rehabilitation program to re-integrate degree holders who are on the streets now, who have become taxi drivers or have resorted to another trade below their qualifications.
3. A job center will be created to advertise jobs at all levels and everybody can apply for a job with no discrimination. Recruitment shall be based strictly on qualification and know-how and not based on affiliation to a high ranking personnel, region or tribe of origin or any other biased reasons.
4. Even at 40, people will still have the possibility to write concurs into technical and professional schools. As a matter of fact, there will be no limit for anybody. Every Southern Cameroonian will be able to shape his/her future they way he/she wants it and the limit shall only be the sky. Young mothers will have better chances to take care of their babies while maintaining their carrier.
5. Primary and secondary education shall be free for all citizens of Southern Cameroons. Southern Cameroonian universities shall be among the best in the world in their categories and shall engage in exchange programs with top ranking universities worldwide so that there will be no reasons for parents to send their children abroad for studies.
6. Health care will be affordable for every Southern Cameroonian citizen. The Southern Cameroons will set up the best hospitals you can imagine and no one will have to travel far in order to have good medical care.
7. There shall be good roads and electricity right to the interior villages. No one shall be cut from civilization again as it is today with the republic of Cameroon. Public transport will be made available to enable safe movement within the urban and rural areas.
8. Together, we shall make Southern Cameroon a paradise on earth and all our sons and daughters who are abroad now will all come back home. We shall be able to live with, and enjoy our grand children without having to travel abroad to see them.
9. Arrangements shall be made for farmers to sell their products at the best prices, and farmers shall have the best support they can think of. Modern farming methods shall be introduced to ease the burden in the farming sector.
10. Southern Cameroons will become a fully democratic country, where the rulers are elected at all levels by the people in fair and transparent elections. The term of the President or Prime minister will be limited to a maximum of two terms with no possibility of prolongation so that young and fresh leaders can have a chance to bring rule and keep our country up to date. All politicians shall be accountable to the people.
11. Criminals, corrupt politicians, and all gangsters shall have no place in Southern Cameroon. Peace and safety shall be provided for all Southern Cameroonian citizens.

Utopia. We have heard these a thousand times. We need a separate country but don’t promise to build castles in the air. I am far from being moved by this Utopia.
I concur. However, we will strive for better ideals
Wooiw. I pray to see this happen as soon as possible.
How about 12. Corruption will be stamped out. There will be no “500” payable as road tax to individuals of the police. Safety of the public will henceforth be rated higher than individual gain. There will be price lists and a published ‘correct procedure’ for any (!) public service. Trying to pay or demand a bribe will be regarded as treason, punishable by extradition to LRC.
@ Stefie, u make me laugh so hard. ” punishable by extradition to LRC. “
Concours will totally be eliminated .it encourages corruption besides its a French system of recruiting.
My thoughts exactly. What are “concours”? They indicate the educational system is faulty, so another system of ranking has to be defined for entry into particular programmes. it’s total BS.
Who will lead to these immature and reckless ambition of urs. All this is bulshit and I believe things will be worst thank it is now when the questions of leaders will pop up.
These can be said of South Sudan. Where are they today? The institutions that will be created will determine the future of the country. Can we create a system that gives powers to the Districts, Cities & Towns and not the central government? Can we defer for a few years not to worry about “natural resources” but beef up our agriculture, education, tourism and services sector so we can focus on the resourcefulness of the people to create wealth? There’s a lot of work to be done. Let’s be ready to do the work.
Optimism is the answer, policies and procedures within an all inclusive government must be enforced by Law and move far away from LRC colonial, outdated,crooked mentality government, embezzlement, bribery ,corruption, dishonesty, abuse of power and status in this new found Southern Cameroonian government must be eradicated by Law, civil servants must be patriotic, trustworthy, hardworking men and women serving the people with strict policies of whistle blowing, name and shame of negative workers and immediate jail sentence no matter the person’s status or position in society if are caught taking bribe, promote ,corruption, abuse their power, embezzle any funds for development or disrupt regional projects, all citizens must be Law abiding and have opportunities based on their abilities,skills, knowledge and qualifications, there must be swift and continuous infrastructural development, the anglophone armies are capable of road infrastructure if given the right tools and machinery, the new government must embrace and welcome honest Diasporas investors and entrepreneurs who want to invest, they must be given incentives, opportunities and integration, so they can invest easily, access documentations quicker with less hassle in order to build the regions faster with their expertise, financial capability.
The foundation of a state is its constitution. It shall guarantees the division of power in the state. What we have learned from the history is to avoid in any case power concentration. We need a strong legislative and a free juristication. Freedom of speech and expression is mandatory. Moreover the people shall be included in decision making. If the people identify themself as part of the state corruption and bribery will go down naturally. But I fear especially because of our wealth,e.g. crude oil, law provisions are absolutely necessary. But first of all let us free ourself from LRC. The struggle continues.
Ministers and people in high profile positions shall be respected people and not people who tell lies and miss inform the world like the ministers of la republic
You guys are having a bad dream just like I did 2 days ago I was triliionnaire
Lol
Freedom of speech shall be in southern Cameroon where everybody can express his or her mind not the way round in the present la republic where if u express your mind, jail awaits u
That is true , just that you all have to start learning to practice those ideals before you reach the promised land .

It will definitely be another La republic but English speaking. Bc I can see there is not platform to stand on that is really convincing. However I just want to be expressing my self freely and not b considered secondly class.
A constitution strictly respected and guaranteeing seperation of power is the key to any better country to exist. A complete change in our educational system and especially an educational system geared towards Agriculture because that is the only basis of development if not there will be no different between BSC and the other African countries. Any country that is not yet industrialised and at the same time is importing food can never develop, this is the main reason why Africa has remained the poorest in the world . Minerals can help develop a country but they cannot be the basis of development at all
