This Book, "Civil Disobedience in Cameroon," written by Justice
Aloysius Nelson Taku Mbu, reveal the effect of the cumulative
events from 1961 to 1990, precipitated by the enlargement of the
presidential powers without corresponding safeguards for the
protection of freedom under Cameroons advanced democracy.
He analyzed the high tide of unitarism, where poverty and
inequality dominates to create a class for the poor and the rich by
giving favors and encouraging blackmail, mismanagement, falsity,
deception and manipulative electioneering. The majority culture
further thought that they could freely assimilate and at the same
time treat the other minority part as of no significant consequence
because they are Lucifers in heaven. "les enemies dans la
maison"]
The immediate result was a nonviolent civil disobedience which
began in Bamenda. The Cameroonians of English expression hold
dearly that 1] benevolent freedom is an essential element in the
content of all democratic constitutions 2] it is incorporated as a
contract between the citizens and the government to guarantee good
governance and protection for their persons, property, liberty and
happiness without let or hindrance; 3] freedom is both a blessing
and birthright from God, and 4] on it fundamental human rights are
planted, nurtured and blossom to bring dignity, love and peace
profound to all and sundry. The government failed in its ploy for
good governance, resorted to threats, intimidation, and force to
oppress the people without the litmus test.
Justice Mbu has been an eye witness to the events of this
transformation in political, social and economic changes that make
Cameroon never to be the same again. He is retired with his family
and resides in Maryland USA.
