Polygamously married man sodomizes six year old girl

-
Hmmmm. To think that being married, and what is more, to two women, would quench the sexual appetite of a forty year old man in Garoua. Well, that of Saidou M. is apparently unsatiable.And why would this man resort to traumatizing six year old Aminatou, I wonder. This is a gory, horrible event that unfolded on the dawn of the new year. As is the custom the world over, the majority of people stay awake to welcome the new year, and the Djamboutou neighbourhood of Garoua is no exception. On that fateful night, a jovial Aminatou happened to stray from her friends. Saidou, who was watching attentively from the nearby bushes, emerged with some sweets, which he used to lure her to a dark and isolated corner.
He then perpetrated the heinous crime,prompting the screaming girl to pass out excrement. Only the prompt intervention of the inhabitants of the neighbourhood saved the infants life.
Saidou was saved in time from being lynched by the angry crowds by the local forces of law and order, who immediately took him into custody.
Aminatou is still undergoing intensive medical care , with her parents pleading for people of goodwill to come to their aid, as they are financially limited.
What will the emotional future of this girl look like, as well as those of others like her, who are victims of such situations? May we all make the engagement to protect our young ones, for they might have to do so for us tomorrow, who knows?

Is gift-giving worthwhile during end-of-year festivities?

A tour of some of the main markets of Garoua , the capital city of the North Region of Cameroon, would leave anyone overwhelmed . The Christmas season leaves no one indifferent, muslims and christians alike. An upsurge in economic activities constitutes an integral component of end-of-year festivi ties, with each member of the society expected to chip in his contribution. As such, traders pull out all the stops in restocking their shops with the most attractive of goods, ranging from toys of all sorts, christmas lights,garments, and other accessories. These goods certainly need buyers, especially parents and guardians,who are expected to procure gifts , whatever the cost. Requests made by celebrants know no limits, who obviously worry the least about what purchasers have to go through. Some borrow large sums of money, others resort to uncivic and unchristian practices to raise the money they need, and after the feasts, start worrying about how to repay loans and balance necessary a

ILLICIT TRADE IN, AND CONSUMPTION OF PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCTS POSE A VERITABLE HEALTH HAZARD IN CAMEROON

-

It is not in  any way a mystery, that the average person living in Cameroon feels very much more at ease, purchasing and consuming drugs, more often than not ill-prescribed by self-proclaimed, uncertified medical practitioners, whose work environment happens to be the streets or provisional structures. For the common trend is that Governments’ action against unauthorized imported drugs lay emphasis on so-called repression rather than on prevention. It is an all too familiar scenario: a huge quantity of pharmaceutical products, described as illegally imported, including banned substances, set on fire in public, under the glare of local authorities. While governments’ action may underscore their concern for the health of the population, one is nevertheless bound to ask why it is reactive, rather than proactive. The destroyed pharmaceutical products comprise counterfeit, uncertified and unlicensed drugs, which leaves one with no choice but to ask, how the drugs found thems

                                                                                        Groundnut fries made from the paste Crunching noisily with undisguised delight, eight-year-old Fadi suddenly freezes, then turns and looks straight at me. "What?", she queried. " Haven't you ever seen someone chewing?" I hurriedly appologised, and then told her of my curiosity about her snack, which to me looked so appetizing and attractive. Her annoyed expresson quickly transformed into a glowing one, evidently relishing the prospect of having to unravel the fascinating process of creating a batch of fried groundnut paste to an ignorant human being. "First, your mindset must be prepared, for the process is an age old tradition that is very much respected", she declares. " Then you take all the time you need in birthing a magnificient batch of fried groundnut cookies." Fadi has been
