Cameroon First Lady concerns about the future

Democracy in Cameroon is falling behind despite several attempts from NGOs and other international organisations in trying to find and prescribe systematic solutions. Despite the world becoming increasingly an interdependent system, Cameroon seem to have set itself apart by being dogmatic in its electoral system. In this new era of globalisation, it is no doubt that, actions taken in one country has repercussions on the other side of the globe, therefore if some aspects of democracy are not integrated properly; pursuing national interests will often be restricted by international agreements; hence further deepening countries like Cameroon into economic and social difficulties.

Just to illustrate the case of democracy, lets use China; When we talk about China, although it is not a Western democracy, China has nevertheless provided a mechanism which alternates. Therefore, since the accession of Paul Biya in 1982, the Middle Kingdom has had five presidents and is preparing to host its 6th. What does it tell us?

Recently in Cameroon politics, local news papers have rather been interested  in the concerns of the First Lady; Chantal Biya,  trying to explain "why the First Lady is crumbling under the weight of fear." According to "Emergence" a national news paper, the First Lady's main concern is that, after Biya's term as a president, her family should have a reputation and free pass. Apparently, she has no guarantee that the transition will experience tranquillity in the future; especially since her husband is not holding his promises to the international community to step down before the end of its mandate; which has indeed been the weakness of the institutions.

In effect, what she wants is the president to sets his "brothers" in key positions of the Republic, to guarantee him immunity when he is no longer there; as reported in the Emergence news paper in Cameroon.

Which is more important to the First Lady? in this situation, a guaranteed immunity and free pass is! rather than the well being of the Nation post leaving the WHITE HOUSE. It is a shame to know her Majesty only thinks about her personal gain and ware fare.
