Over the years, I have heard one reason or the other why a woman should keep her virginity. Mind you, it is always about the woman, never the man. Now, I’ve never really taken these people seriously and never really pondered why these people said what they said because in my experience, most Cameroonian women usually have 'tasted the goods' anyway by the time they get married or in any case by

What is it about a continent which is usually seen as a country in other parts of the world? Never has a continent as a whole been more falsely perceived.Sometimes, I seriously think it is a deliberate act on the part of the Northern media.

On that fateful Tuesday morning when I made my way to the Commissariat de Police du 6e Arrondissement, Douala in order to apply for a new id card, little did I know that I was in for the comedy show of the century. It was like a scene from a bad movie.On this sunny, bright day, I was dressed very casually; jeans and a simple white top. Knowing how grouchy and surly Cameroonian public officials

Being forced to traverse the Douala International Airport is something I'll not wish on my worst enemy. It had been a while since I last travelled and I guess I had all but forgotten the notoriety of the Douala airport authorities.

The Japanese Kimono is usually known for its silky texture, but not so that with the African twist.Serge Mouangue from Cameroon made a bold statement when he came out with his WAFRICA fashion brand.

So, there was a fashion show in Douala last week dubbed 'Lambo La Kiti'. There were presentations from over 14 kaba designers. The event took place at the Hotel Ibis on the 27th of November with the aim of promoting Kabas and traditional outfits.My opinion: Some of the kabas were quite nice, while others lacked originality and imagination. I especially like some of the fabrics used on one or two

I have never donated to charity before. Never, not even once in my life. During the great famine in Ethiopia in the eighties, I was a little older than a toddler; what did I know? During the Rwandan genocide in the nineties, I was a mere teenager with my head firmly in the clouds. Even when the Tsunami occurred in South East Asia extending to parts of East Africa in 2004, I still did not donate.

Okay, so I was browsing the internet the other day, and lo and behold (lol), I came across the University of Buea (UB) website. This came as a surprise (albeit pleasant) to me and at the same time not. It was a surprise because, although I expect nothing less for a university, we all know how Pays is, even the obvious they cannot see or pretend not to see. On the other hand, it was not a surprise
