LRC MILITARY INVADES MANKON FON'S PALACE DURING TRADITIONAL CELEBRATION
Homage and Celebration Of The Legacy Of The 'Missing' King of Mankon, Military Hijacks The Ceremony
La Republique du CameroUn is bent on destroying the culture of the people of Southern Cameroons. La Republique du CameroUn seeing the respect the people of Southern Cameroons gave to their Fons, and in an attempt to reduce the powers of the Fons, they have decided to make the Fons auxiliaries to the colonial LRC administration. In this light, traditional events at our palaces are gradually being hijacked and transformed into official LRC events, flooded with heavy military deployment. A similar situation is going on now at the Mankon Fon's palace. At the Official homage and celebration of the great legacy of the missing king of Mankon, His Royal Highness Fo Angwafo III Solomon Anyeghamottu Ndefru.
The event has been hijacked and the traditional aspect is seemingly coming at the second plan and not the first as it was supposed to be the case. It is more or like a military event, with different contigens and regimens. Why such a military presence if not to kill the tradition of the people of Mankon. Mankon Nukwi Nr Abubte, in order words the Official Homage and Celebration of the great legacy of the 'missing' King of Mankon, His Royal Highness Fo Angwafo III S. A. N. has started today Thursday December 15, and will run till January 15, 2022.
The ceremony is taking place at the Mankon Palace in Bamenda Ngwe. Paradoxically, LRC colonial military groups outnumber traditional dance groups. The colonial LRC military has hijacked a traditional ceremony. The heavy military presence is a hindrance to the successful paying of homage and celebration of the legacy of the missing King of Mankon. As the population is scared of their presence. This is most especially of their atrocities in Southern Cameroons. Born in 1925, Fo Angwafo III S. A. B. of Mankon after primary education in 1944,attended the Aggrey Memorial College Arochuku, Eastern Nigeria, from 1945-1950, where he obtained the Senior Cambridge Secondary School Certificate.
