Increasingly, the deception by Separatists and ensuing sufferings inflicted on persons is served as an eye opener, triggering a strong resolve for realignment.
Cameroonians from the North west and South west regions crave to return to and completely regain their cherished love, peace, and unity. Being a people that promote growth and development, the imposed violence, leading to stagnation which they have had to deal with has greatly hampered them. It is an impediment they want to get over permanently and fast.
The upcoming October Presidential elections, the announced candidacy of President Paul avails a wonderful opportunity for these peace-loving Cameroonians to right wrongs caused for them these eight long years.
Paul Biya has stayed constant on his politics of peace, and dialogue. On the other hand, people in these two regions were deceived, made to believed a lie and the consequences have been enormous.
The outstretched hand of love and fellowship of the Head of State has made them have a rethink. All their efforts are now redirected toward Biya, their only hope to regain serenity.
Local political officials of the CPDM in these regions, are taking the bull by the horns, they are on the field working tooth and nail to educate and sensitize their people to take advantage of this opportunity coming up in October to reposition themselves for success.
One of such politicians is Senator Enwe Francis Abi of Momo division. He has stayed constant in his bead for peace, relaying President Biya’s message for those misled to take up arms to lay them down; come back to normal life.
In a recent grand gesture of love and solidarity towards victims of the war in the Northwest and South west, he offered a total number of forty-five (45) Motorbike to victims of separatist’s excesses. Beneficiaries came from both Regions.
Still in pursuit of his resolve to bring out all young people from the bushes the Senator succeeded to convince eight (8) more former fighters who surrendered themselves; were taken to the administration of the region.
The cry of people in these two regions for Paul Biya to be their candidate in the October polls resonates louder now than ever.
The hitherto fear of being identified with the CPDM and Paul Biya has given way to a total acceptance and a craving for his candidacy.
Their calls are voice through songs, messages and even banners.
It is a resolute decision of a people that have learned through the hardest and most inhumane way. They are all looking forward to a total turnaround, and the way is through Paul Biya.
Prayers have also continued to be made for the total healing of broken hearts, especially for families that have lost loved ones.
Biya’s calls for peace makes more sense to the people now than ever. They have understood that no nation is built through strife.
