Ndifor, Enow, Efundem, Abi are crying.
Deported, raped, traumatized, their lives will no longer be the same.

Enonguene lives like a rat in his own land, light sleep, he lives in constant fear because the sweet birdsongs that used to wake him have been replaced by a symphony of kalashnikovs and homemade bombs.

Will they ever again attend the South West Cultural Festival? The Urban Musice Jamboree? The Moungo?

My heart breaks everyday as I see Mokata with tears in her eyes. the rape she suffered hurts me deep in my soul. What did she do to deserve this? Is this normal?

Will we ever again visit Mount Oku, Mount Cameroon (Mongo mo Ndemi), Mount Fako (Mongo ma Loba), Mount Rata, Mount Koupé without being afraid?
Could I still stand at the Mambila plateau and admire the Chappal Waddi of Nigeria?

I refuse to believe that the land of Rebecca Enonchong ( @africatechie,) descendant of Chief Abane founder, himself of the Chief Besongabang, has become a cemetery.

Lake Oku, Lake Cameroon, and Menchum River have replaced their waters with tears and blood.

Who will now narrate the epics of the Widikum, Mumuye, Jukun, Muyuka, Bakossi and others to me around the fire to the rhythm of Njang?

Would I still be able to see the Aka Mask? The Bafut Chiefdom? The Afo Akom statue?

Who will make me wear the Togho again and feed me with its history?

Could I ever, without fear, be served the delicious meal from the region ? Taro with yellow sauce? Good eru? Ekwang? Kati-kati? Okro Soup?

Dear father, could he ever, without fearing for his life, take me to see the Goliath frogs? The Psychotria darwiniana?
My daddy is supposed to be the strongest in the world, don't make a fool of him, don't make him seem helpless in my eyes. I don't want such an image of him.

The paintings of Sunday Nzante Spee, the intelligence of Acha Leke ( @achaleke), Vera Songwe( @SongweVera), and of Princess Botinyui come from this land.

Andy Allo ( @andyallo), Henriette Ekwe Ebongo, Cardinal Tumi, Georgi Dinka are all natives off in this region.

Ndukong Love alias Jovi ( @JoviLeMonstre), Kien Renisse Ndé Aka ( @RENISS_), Stanley Ebai Enow( @StanleyEnow), Fonyuy Nsobunrika Leonard alias Mr Leo( @mrleo237)

Arthur Locko Samba ( @lockofficial), Anthony Tohnain Nguo alias Magasco ( @Magascobboy), Daphné Njié Efundem, Salatiel Livenja Bessong ( @therealsalatiel) to only list a few, are all young refugees who continue to make us dance to the sweet melodies of their country.

I wish to continue reading Imbolo Mbue's novels. Don't take my life away.
Please, Let's stop! let's stop this crisis.
