You asked where care turns into possession. I wrote 500 words back, because the question wouldn't sit still.
What I found: the institution doesn't decide to hold you. It learns, from your silence, that it can.

C'est 🇨🇲 Biya’s absence/death/health dodges that 🇨🇲 is neither a democracy nor constitutional republic. No supreme law, people's rights, votes respected. Power w/cabal. Biya can live/rule/die n’importe ou @barristertamfu @FRauCameroun @SwissMFA @Beatriceijang @Dpol_un @AkereMuna

Time turned back depositing #Cameroun🇨🇲 in medieval times when kings omnipotent & subjects speak in whispers of rumors abt king ensconced within @intercontgeneva🇨🇭is mad, comatose, or dead. All kingsmen in 237 happy to fan winds of secrecy in 🇨🇲 @FRauCameroun @SwissMFA @NorwayMFA

[Emma Osong @EOsong]

After Rwanda the world said 'Never Again', Southern Cameroons feel betrayed as the carnage is ongoing without a robust int'l   response to hold perpetrators accountable. What gives? @CameroonPm237 @FRauCameroun @TiborPNagyJr @StateDept_GCJ

#Gabon #Cameroon #Congo
For a world that cuddles dictators as they do genocidal regimes, there's another 56-yr long ruling autocrat next door.
For the future of Africa, a revolution is underfoot. Watch!

I succumb to my tears at your death, my sister Gene, as I struggle to submit gracefully to the will of God. You truly smelled your🌹 while here. Miss u sorely. Sleep well.

My deepest deepest condolences, Herbert, for the sudden passing of Nestorine. Just so recently, we were together celebrating. May she rest in peace 🙏🏾

[Herbert Boh @BohHerbert]

For 40 years, we loved & shared everything: joy, pain, disappointments. In sickness, in health; for richer, for poorer. We worked with whatever life threw at us. We were blessed to raise five amazing kids. God has called back my Queen, Nestorine. RIP, my love.

When it comes to Sub-Saharan Africa, northern countries--@POTUS throws out RULE BOOK!
Sad & putiful death to "promoting democracy-upholding human rights around the world 🌎

[Tibor Nagy @TiborPNagyJr]

Surprised that US Govt started discussions with #Cameroon about country regaining AGOA eligibility. Has Cam Govt's human rights practices improved? Has Govt done anything serious to end the Anglophone crisis? Has Govt done anything to lessen corruption? NO

Witchcraft is when warmongering autocrats are certified by their western interest-based partners as democratic.

Message in @USEmbYaounde 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 🦜 is clear: these sham is happening mainly in La Republique.

[Emma Osong @EOsong]

WITCHCRAFT
Embarrassing for @UKinCameroon
Guess this is what the West calls "supporting our international partners"? By supporting cleptocracts. autocrats. Warmongering regimes?
Haba!
