France and the US are supporting Cameroon's state-sanctioned reign of terror
In anglophone Cameroon, BIR troops allegedly set fire to homes and neighborhoods, routinely torture as a mode of interrogation and summarily execute suspected supporters of Ambazonia, the breakaway nation that, on October 1, 2017 symbolically declared its independence from the Republic of Cameroon after more than 20 years of seeking political and legal strategies to counter its progressive marginalization since decolonization.
Perhaps in the eyes of some their respective adherents, Ambazonia's struggle for economic, political and linguistic autonomy has little in common with Boko Haram more than 1,000km away. Yet in the eyes of the Cameroonian state, they are equivalent. Both have resulted in state security force's unbridled collective punishment of entire communities, displacing populations from the north and from the southwest on an increasing scale.
Days after viewers worldwide watched Cameroon's BIR soldiers summarily execute a baby, a child and their mothers, Paul Biya, now the second longest serving president in the entire world, tweeted his intent to run for reelection in October 2018. Before the announcement, Biya set his house in order. In early July, the Cameroonian president announced the cancellation of the concurrent legislative and municipal elections.

Comment: Except for in the very early days, a complete education was only really reserved for those attending elite schools, schools open to the public served a variety of other agendas, and it worked out quite well, for a while. But as Western society and its values have become increasingly distorted, and this is reflected in our education system, an increasing number of young adults are leaving school unable to function in the real world:
