In compliance to President Paul Biya’s recurrent calls for all Cameroonians to pursue peace for the common good, the youth wing of Ngoketunjia I section plans to make peace their battle axe.
These young Cameroonians who came out on 6 November to express their political attachment unhindered saluted their National President for successfully piloting the nation these 40 years. Their desire is to emulate Paul Biya in his peace campaign strategy as a way to keep Cameroon intact. Guided by Pius Mukrongho Mingo, they agreed to preach and to practice peace throughout Ndop and beyond. The reality of things in the section speaks of a youth wing that’s coming from far, to bring to mind the sufferings that they have had to endure as a result of the activities of separatists. According to the Section President “The Ndop youth is still standing today only thanks to the incessant calls and encouragements of the National President Paul Biya. He who has never stopped to plead with them not to trade the Nation’s peace for any reason”, Mingo said. “Until you compare two things you might never know what is best. We the youths of Ndop have compared peace as offered by President Biya, and violence as preached and forced on us by secessionists and there is no match”, he insisted.
Young people in Ndop have been forced to eat the bitter bread of sorrow for five years. Talented and vibrant youths have been lost, homes broken and so much water gone under the bridge. The youths in Ndop have had to learn the hard way, today they know and can better appreciate the values of having and living in peace. “We choose and stand for peace with our Champion, President Paul Biya who we celebrate”, Mingo emphasized.
In order to make this cherished peace a reality in Ndop and the other sections of the CPDM in Ngoketunjia division, Pius Mingo used the occasion of the 40th anniversary celebration to hook up with his peer youth presidents of Ngoketunjia II in Balikumbat and Ngoketunjia III in Babessi so that together they nurture this new baby who bring joy to all three sections of the CPDM in Ngoketunjia.
