A DEATH IN GENEVA THAT PUT A NATION IN A COMA AND TRAUMATIZED AFRICA: The Assassination of Félix-Roland Moumié and Cameroon’s Unfinished Liberation

When it comes to Cameroon, there seems to be an international conspiracy of silence regarding the destiny of this land variously described as "Africa in Miniature" or "The Microcosm of Africa". It is as if it truly embodies the haunted existence of Africa.When talking about dictators, the media giants apparently fail to mention the world's longest-serving non-royal head of state---Paul Biya of Cameroon, as if there is something to hide or as if there is something shameful about the Biya story and the anachronistic system that France and its geopolitical allies imposed on Cameroon by using Cameroonian puppets. It is as if the mainstream media giants would rather not talk about this symbol of neocolonialism in Africa.While the 1954-1962 Algerian War of Independence against the colonial master France that resulted in more than 300,000 Algerian casualties (including 55,000 to 60,000 civilians), is open to discussion in the academia and media in the West, the 1956-1970 Cameroonian War of Reunification and Independence where more than half a million Cameroonians lost their lives, is barely a footnote in world history.Why? Some pundits ask.Other pundits hold that it is because of a silent acknowledgment of guilt that the perpetrators would rather see buried forever, so that it never resurfaces to expose their unscrupulousness in the dismal subjugation of the will of the Cameroonian people in a process of social engineering that only promises to make the country a dysfunctional state for the benefit of foreign interests. This malignity was most evident in the 1960 assassination of Félix-Roland Moumié by the French secret agent William Bechtel, a cruel killing that cemented the installation of a French-imposed system in Cameroon that is managed today by French puppet Paul Biya, which is why the Cameroon quagmire is a Franco-Western as well as a Cameroonian problem.Read more
