M.P CORRUPTING THE PEOPLE OF NKAMBE TO GO OUT AND MATCH

By -

A video of a Member of Parliament Ngala Gerald moving on the streets with military forces and sharing money to the youths of Nkambe to come out on the 11th of February and take part in the youth day match past celebration has surfaced online.



 It's a shame for the government not to solve a problem but instead endanger the lives of its citizens on a day that is supposed to be a youth day. Youth Day celebrations ended abruptly in Nkambe,  Donga mantung Division of the Northwest Region of Cameroon after a bomb blast reportedly occurred at the grandstand. Many students could be seen running back home while others were seriously injured.

one question we must ask is why he should be giving money before people can come out to take part in the February 11th celebration. Before now, youths used to go out gladly and celebrate this day. what has happened out of a sudden, why does the government have to force people and even bribe some to come out and match.

Poverty is being used as a weapon to manipulate the population by the elite class. The poor population who are already going through hardship imposed on them as a result of the ongoing war remains very volatile when politicians show up with bags of money and share while asking them to do things that may put their lives in jeopardy. 

The civilians have to understand that the government is only sharing money so that they can come out and videos will be received and sent to Yaounde to make a false claim that everything is normal. The population has to understand that their security is in their hands because the government has failed to protect civilians since this war started. Most of the elite class and their families live outside of these regions and only come in when there are celebrations and are also well guarded by the military.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently declared the situation a public health emergency of international concern, highlighting the urgency of the crisis. The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) has estimated that while there are currently about 200,000 doses available, the continent requires at least 10 million doses to effectively manage the outbreak.

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
