15-year-old Javits Frimpong was fatally shot on his way to school in the Bronx. His father believes the killing may be tied to bullying his son endured. He brought Javits from Ghana for a better life, only to lose him to violence. NO child should have to fear for their life on the way to school!
Some 7 executives of the French oil company BOURBON were found guilty of corruption in Marseille France today July 12 2024. They are accused of organizing the payment of bribes in 3 countries, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Nigeria. As regards Cameroon the main offenders were:
Christian LEFEVRE
Guilty of corruption in the 3 countries (Cameroon, Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea)
30 months suspended sentence 80,000 euros fine
Prohibited from exercising any corporate mandates, manage, direct any commercial company for 3 years.
Gaël BODENES and Laurent RENARD Guilty of corruption in the 3 countries
24 months suspended sentence and 80,000 euros fine. Prohibited from exercising any corporate mandates managing, running a company
Eric Verrière guilty of being an accomplice to corruption in Cameroon only. 6 months suspended sentence and 5000 Euros fine.
Cameroon was not party to the suit and no Cameroonian tax official was named. No legal action has been taken in our country. Just like in the GLENCORE scandal impunity reigns supreme. The day the state of corruption in the oil sector will be revealed we will just have to declare 30 days of National Mourning. 2025 is our golden opportunity to vanquish this evil and give hope a chance. We will overcome.

Wishing everyone the Spirit of (Ferenje) Christmas - whether you like my posts or hate them. With more peace in the world and fewer conflicts and suffering we'd have fewer topics to discuss - wouldn't that be wonderful for a change?! May God bless you all!
Ce lobe.
Cette tête.
Ce résultat historique.
Ce carton rouge sensationnel.

In parts of #Cameroon, children and their teachers are risking their lives every day just going to school. Schools have been closed at gunpoint. One traditional chief told me, he is nervous they are losing a generation here to this maddening conflict. @zainashercnn @OneWorldCNN
On last day of @IMFNews Exec Board meetings before summer break, #Cameroon gets nearly $700m lifeline so it can continue to import military equipment and pay security forces, pay back stadium loans, pay off cronies, & charter luxury jets. #MoralHazard

"The argument that multi-party politics is incompatible with African ways of life stretches back to racist colonial officials. ...But it's not true, and has become a lazy excuse for authoritarian regimes that are neither popular nor legitimate."

Western foreign policy still treats black lives abroad differently. That observation doesn't come down to hard national interests; basic assumptions that shape Canadian, American, European foreign policy towards Africa need rethinking. #EndAnglophoneCrisis
