NW CAMASEJ President Says Journalists must teach by example.

At their monthly meeting today April 10th 2020, aimed at evaluating the impact of their work on the population they serve, close to 50 members of the Cameroon Association of English Speaking Journalists (CAMASEJ NW) were each handed a litre of hand sanitizer as part of pre-emptive measures to guard against the pandemic as they execute their duties daily.

This was possible thanks to the romance that exists between the association and the NW Regional Delegation of Public Health that subsidized the purchase by 25%.

Speaking, the president Ambe MacMillan said:

"We're privileged that in the appeal we sent to Minsante Delegate, he did us a 25% reduction in the cost. We are giving you our members not just for your personal use, reason why we step it up to a litre. Do well to share to family members, friends and neighbors because if these persons are not safe, so are you. Being the leaders that we are, not just by virtue of mouth but by action, it's our place to share not only information but livelihood as well. It's our duty as journalists to care about the health of the society"

To note that journalists by virtue of their profession do interact with people of various age group within their respective communities and are not immuned to epidermics or pandemics such as the Covid-19.

Social distance respected during the meeting

The journalists via the routine audiovisual, print review and special presentation suggested ways in which they can better communicate Covid-19 without instilling fear and Panic amongst the population.

In the days ahead CAMASEJ NW will benefit face masks from the BoBo Linox arts centre.

NORTH WEST PUBLIC INDEPENDENT CONCILIATOR

The PIC while addressing local masses in Wum Council area, Mr. Tamfu Fai, appealed to the government to create divisional representations. In the Anglo-Saxon tradition, it is customary to set up independent authorities responsible for settling disputes between users and regional and council administration. In line with this logic, Law No.2019/24 of 24 December 2019 to institute the General Code of Regional and Local Authorities provides for an independent authority called the Public Independent Conciliator (PIC) in the North-West and South-West Regions. The office holder is by no means a legal authority or a judge, as the competences and powers entrusted to him are not of a legal nature. The PIC is responsible, inter alia, for amicably settling disputes between users and the regional and council administration, defending and protecting rights and freedoms with regard to the relationship between citizens and the region or the councils thereof, conducting any investigation on the f...

FRENCH PRESIDENT, EMMANUEL MACRON, DISAVOWS DECENTRALIZATION AS SOLUTION TO ANGLOPHONE CONFLICT; OPTS FOR REGIONALISM.

Image an elephant walked into the room. It's definitely something you would notice. It's also something people would describe in many different ways. Some might see it as a monster or a threat, while others (like The Colbert Factor) might think it's the greatest thing ever. It would ultimately mean something different to everyone, and that would influence the way each person understood it. The visit of the French President was the elephant walking into the Cameroon room. Emmanuel Macron and Paul Biya in Yaoundé. July 25-27 2022 Last week's visit by recently re-elected French President, Emmanuel Macron, was too substantial to ignore. To most ordinary Cameroonians, his remarks after the close to two hours high-level talks with long-serving President Paul Biya, were great. To others, (especially those in government), they were a threat to what government had given a pat on its back for a fast-track of the decentralization process with a Special Status for the North Wes...
