The letter addressed to the Rt. Rev. Dr. Samuel Fonki, Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon (PCC), is a formal yet pointed communication from the Very Rev. Dr. Festus A. Asana, a former Moderator of the Presbyterian church in Cameroon.  It serves as a cautionary message regarding the current state of the church and the leadership style of the current Moderator.  The letter opens with a biblical quote emphasizing the importance of heeding instruction and the consequences of rejecting guidance. This sets a serious tone, indicating that the Dr Festus A Asana is deeply concerned about the direction of the PCC under Dr. Fonki's leadership.

The 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), scheduled to take place in Beijing from September 4 to 6, 2024, presents a significant opportunity for dialogue between Chinese and African leaders.  The summit will revolve around the theme of  "Joining Hands to Advance Modernization and Build a High-Level China-Africa Community with a Shared Future."  This theme underscores the commitment to enhancing cooperation and solidarity between China and Africa, focusing on mutual development and progress. However, it also raises important questions about the nature of this engagement and its implications for African nations and their citizens. One of the primary criticisms of inviting leaders from across Africa to such a summit in China is rooted in the perception of power dynamics and respect. For many Africans, attending a summit hosted by a foreign power—especially one as influential and economically powerful as China—can feel like an affront. It underscores the i
