My vision for Cameroon

This should be a captivating book both for the author's compatriots and beyond. From the Prologue, devoted to a « risky » sketch of the moral portrait of the Cameroonian, to an annex presenting some Proposals for Action, through the four chapters (1. Cameroon as an idea, ethnic groups and the nation-state ; 2. State power ; 3. The field of development ; 4. Cameroon in Africa and in the world), Njoh Mouellé analyses, criticises in the sense of evaluating pro and contra the situation, and ends up formulating argued proposals based on first-hand information. The text glitters with powerful and mobilising formulas one cannot help mentioning a few : « On certain great occasions, the idea of Cameroon has indeed illuminated the conscience of compatriots with patriotism. These illuminations must cease to be sporadic and occasional, to become « daily and permanent » ; or the following : « Cameroon cannot radiate abroad if, in the heart of Cameroonians, it does not first radiate ». As it was the case for Député de la nation, the book My Vision for Cameroon captures and keeps the reader in suspense.
