Agbor Balla Advances Reasons For Endorsing Tchiroma

ENDORSEMENT OF ISSA TCHIROMA BAKARY FOR THE 2025 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

BY BARRISTER NKONGHO FELIX AGBOR

"AGBOR BALLA" - HUMAN RIGHTS

ADVOCATE & OPINION LEADER

At this defining moment in our nation's history, Cameroon stands at a crossroads between the politics of division and the promise of renewal. The 2025 presidential election offers us more than a political contest; it offers us a chance to begin a national rebirth rooted in justice, unity, and shared destiny.

It is in this spirit of reconciliation and civic duty that I, Nkongho Felix Agbor "Agbor Balla", a human rights advocate and opinion leader, formally express my endorsement of Mr. Issa Tchiroma Bakary for the office of President of the Republic of Cameroon.

Mr. Tchiroma's recent public apology to Anglophones was not merely symbolic; it was a courageous and humane act of leadership. In acknowledging the pain and marginalization that many of our citizens have endured, he demonstrated humility and moral clarity; two qualities rarely seen in our political culture. It was a gesture that transcended politics, speaking directly to the conscience of our nation.

Beyond apology, Mr. Tchiroma has articulated a bold vision for a transitional government, a peaceful and inclusive process aimed at rebuilding the foundations of our Republic. His proposal for a limited transitional mandate reflects the understanding that Cameroon must first heal, reconcile, and reform its institutions before it can truly prosper. This is not a quest for power; it is a call for restoration-the rebuilding of trust, governance, and the social contract between the people and the state.

I share this conviction deeply. Cameroon cannot move forward without truth, accountability, and reform. We must embark on a deliberate process of national rebuilding of institutions, trust, and citizenship, that ensures justice for the marginalized and opportunity for all.

My endorsement of Mr. Tchiroma is therefore not partisan. It is anchored in principle; the principle that our country's salvation lies in dialogue, inclusion, and the moral courage to admit past wrongs and chart a new path forward.

As citizens prepare to cast their votes, I call on every Cameroonian to reflect not on old divisions, but on the possibility of a new Cameroon united in diversity, governed by integrity, and driven by the will of its people.

Our nation's renewal begins with choices rooted in hope, humility, and humanity. This election is one such moment.

DONE IN GAROUA, THIS 10TH DAY OF OCTOBER 2025.

Sir, Dr, Ntumfor, Barrister Nico Halle's Little Take On Hate Speech

This little and simple article is definitely a continuation of my almost twenty-eight years quest for Justice and Peace for our beloved country where there is everything but Love, Justice and Peace. Too bad indeed.
The article is also triggered by the exponential upsurge in hate speech in Cameroon and beyond. As a Justice and Peace crusader, and as one who has no kind words for embezzlers and predators it is incumbent upon my humble self to situate the current situation within its proper context even if I may only be repeating myself over and over again.
Yet, what is hate speech? Hate speech though loosely used by so many is described by others as threatening and wanton words, articles that attack particular groups especially on the basis of minority, race, sexual orientation, religion, colour, belief, ethnicity, nationality and education. Hate Speech is also any kind of communication in writing, speech, behavior, action, character that hurts or attacks, uses pejorative or selective language that makes reference to a group of people who are deprived or marginalized. The definition might be varied and various, but it stems from one thing- absence of love, Justice, equity leading to ANGER/FRUSTRATION resulting in- VIOLENCE, CHAOS AND ANARCHY.
Truth be told, when God created Cameroon like many other Nations, He provided for His people sufficient resources for their welfare. It is true that Adam and Eve played into the hands of the devil who tricked them into violating God's strict instructions. (Spare me details). Both of them fell and sin found itself in the world.
Despite God's anger, He, in His infinite love for His people still sent Prophets to turn things around without success. He later on sent His only begotten son Jesus Christ to transform His people. These same people rebelled against Him and crucified him even though He committed no crime.
Today we are engulfed in Hate, greed, fear, graft, embezzlement, bribery and corruption, discrimination, tribalism, favoritism, xenophobia, regionalism, hypocrisy, falsehood, marginalization, lies, human rights and liberties abuse, election rigging etcetc etc. Are these not the platform on which Hate speech thrives abundantly? The answer is a big YES. Can we who are promoters of the above fight Hate speech? The answer is a big NO. I challenge some of us; all over our country who are condemning hate speech whether we have the moral authority to fight Hate Speech! How can we condemn what we promote? This is certainly very hypocritical and impossible. If we MUST fight Hate speech, we MUST start from what causes Hate speech otherwise it would be an effort in futility
How can we fight Hate speech when we cannot respect the Rule of law of our land? Are we truly patriotic?
How can we fight Hate speech when discrimination is promoted at all the echelons of our society? Where there is discrimination there is hate speech.
How can we fight Hate speech when the core moral values of love, Justice, equity, transparency, accountability, integrity, truth, patriotism, respect of human rights and liberties, credibility etc that should be espoused to constitute the platform of our daily activities are treated with levity?
How can we fight Hate speech when meritocracy has given way to mediocrity?
How can we fight Hate speech when some of those who receive awards, distinctions and medals are of questionable character?
Just a few days ago I met with someone I know at an event who boasted that he has occupied high positions within our society and even trumpeted that he is one of the most bilingual and educated Cameroonians with a PhD. I chatted with him for about twenty minutes and told him straight that I do not value his learned stature most Cameroonians know him as an embezzler and election rigger and that he had nothing to offer as he was morally bankrupt. I reminded him of his quest for power and money by corrupt means that people know. He was ashamed when I disclosed to him in the presence of another friend what he had done when he worked at one of our institutions. Can such a person fight Hate speech? Absolutely no because he is responsible for those in abject poverty idling around.
How can we fight Hate speech when poverty and unemployment are our mainstay? A hungry and an unemployed person is a fertile ground for Hate Speech.
How can we fight Hate speech when elections are rigged at almost all levels of our society? About 85% of uprising in the world emanate from rigged elections. See what happens at Cultural Associations, in our Communities, our global Churches, within Political parties, within the civil society, even in the Bar Association where the Rule of law ought be the watch word.
How can we fight Hate speech when Religious structures that ought to be a moral force to reckon with have degenerated into despicable moral decadence?
How can we fight Hate speech when parents do no longer bring up their children in the way of the Lord? Proverbs 22:6
The fear of the Lord which should be the beginning of wisdom has now been transformed into the fear of money, power, position etc is the beginning of wisdom.
How can we fight Hate speech when religious knowledge and moral education do not feature in the curriculum our children's studies? Five "O" level papers without Religious

Knowledge; or Two "A" level papers without Religious Knowledge. Are we not saying that five or two papers without God? So how does this situation bring up the child in the way of the Lord? Answer blowing in the wind.
How can one who promotes corruption, bribery, graft, discrimination, tribalism, division, divide and rule, hypocrisy, falsehood, xenophobia, violence, bitterness, frustration, sycophancy, surrogacy, bootlicking, praise singing, idol worshiping etc etc etc fight Hate speech? All of these vices virtually promote hate speech.
Even if we are not scrupulously respecting the Rule of law of our Country let us at least ask for direction from our awesome God. This is the person whose boots we should lick daily by going on our knees and asking for forgiveness after repenting from our sins.
Why is it that even some of the documents that could even lead us into being patriotic are systematically spurned?
I have had occasion of reading and re-reading two great books that were published by H.E. Paul Biya when he just became President of the Republic of Cameroon. These books are titled “Rigour and Moralization” and “Communal Liberalism”. Anyone who grabs a copy and reads would understand that I am not recommending the book just because it was done by the Head of State but because the books contain what it takes to change the mentality and mindsets of Cameroonians.
These books were good yesterday and are today still relevant for a society that wants to live in peace and harmony. If these books had been imbibed at all echelons of our body polity, we would have long emerged as Cameroon is blessed with huge natural and human resources. We would have also avoided the socio-political crisis rocking the NW/SW Regions of our country. Most Cameroonians I know are very intelligent in almost all areas of life. Unfortunately, academia that is devoid of core moral values represents almost nothing. Such academia cannot build a great Nation.
I have recommended that the above two books be reprinted and produced in large quantities and distributed free throughout the country for our moral rearmament. The reintroduction of religious and moral education at all echelons of our Education curriculum should be taken seriously if we must turn the tide. I reiterate this recommendation and appeal to the Government to take it seriously.
Yet, why were these books rejected? This was because by implementing their contents embezzlers and grafters would no longer have their way. They have over the years looted and plundered the resources creating poverty and unemployment. Despicable.
Rigour and Moralization imply that the Rule of law would be respected by all and sundry thereby curbing inequalities that are fertile grounds for frustration and of course Hate Speech. Intrigues, greed, vaulting and inordinate ambitions, unbridled quest for power, recognition and position, manipulations, lies, cover ups, and FEAR are largely responsible for most of frustrations leading to Hate Speech.

The socio-political crisis in the NW/SW Regions are still very pre-occupying owing to a couple of reasons. Some of the key players, call them stake holders have NEVER told the truth because of FEAR. They fear to lose friendship, they fear to lose benefits, favours, advantages, promotions, appointments or reappointments, grandeur, titles, awards, glamour, splendour and what have you!
People have forgotten that all the above attributes no matter how we acquired them will slip off our fingers when God wills it. I have always reminded myself that there is no position that I hold anywhere that I cannot let go when it comes to standing for the truth and defending general interest. We have also forgotten that our live here on earth is ephemeral and that we have a responsibility to leave the world better than we met it. We have also forgotten that amassing wealth to the detriment of our brothers and sisters is a heinous crime against humanity and that we shall all be held accountable to our creator for all our deeds.
Some people are insensitive to the many civilians, and army that are perishing in the senseless war in the NW/SW Regions. Some of us are more interested in how much money we make on the blood of our brothers and sisters dying in their great numbers. Those countries manufacturing arms are making brisk business. Terrible. Others are making political capital of the crisis. A big SHAME to us all. There is always time for reckoning when all will be said and done.
Finally, when the Pope's representative visited Cameroon recently he re-echoed what I have been recommending since about four years now on how we can honestly solve the socio-political crisis in the NW/SW regions: namely the creation of a Justice, Peace and Reconciliation platform. This will constitute the platform for honest, objective, inclusive dialogue to hold. For this to happen smoothly some preliminary measures should be taken to create an enabling environment. I still stand by this crusade and pray that God should show the people of this beloved country the right way to come out of the crisis.
While this is the way, Spiritual and Moral Rearmament should be highlighted at all the facets of the country. Hate Speech must be tackled holistically especially at the grassroots where we find about 90% of frustration owing to the fact the people are living in abject squalor.
Like JF Kennedy, I will always ask myself what I can do for my country and not what my country can do for me. This I shall continue to do till my Creator calls me home whenever He wishes.
I pray and pray and pray for God’s people.

Nico Halle’s Message At CENPA Award

Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, I greet all of you seated in this beautiful hall at the Buea Mountain Hotel today, 5th July 2025, the year of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ladies and gentlemen, please permit me acknowledge formally my invitation to this great event that was sent to me by the President of CENPA on the 26th of May 2025, inviting me to be part of this event to receive an award titled Consistent Peace Advocate and Anti-Corruption Champion Award.
First of all, I would like to express gratitude to the President of CENPA in particular, and of course, the jury that found me worthy to receive this great award, which for me is a big motivation.
It's a big encouragement to my person, winner of the 24th Consistent Peace Advocate and Anti-Corruption Champion Award. For your decades of selfless peace, crusade, and fearless war against corruption, corruption, and it ends with the word congratulations.
Corruption, bribery, graft, embezzlement, and of course, you add to that discrimination, tribalism, xenophobia, these are all setbacks that have destroyed the very fabric of this beautiful nation. And I've been on this fight for more than 30 years, and this fight can only stop when I'm in my coffin, because I think that we have to do something to turn things around.
All of these vices are responsible for huge pockets of unemployment and poverty, and these are sources of frustration. And of course, you would understand that when people are frustrated, they can, of course, spew, you see what we call hate speech, xenophobia, and what have you, bitterness, they will disseminate all of that and destroy the society. So I've been into this fight, and I will continue to, I will continue to.
And I want to thank the jury, again, that found me worthy to receive this great award. This award, I will receive it gracefully and thankfully because it falls on the domain that I have been into over the years. If this award did not address issues that I have been working on over the years, then of course, it would be a concocted and fabricated award.
And of course, people who know me, Sir Dr. Barrister Nico Halle will reject it outright. But I'm accepting this award because of its credibly and the organ, CENPA giving me this award is credible.
In fact, when they were created, when this CENPA was created some six years ago, the first venue, the first venue they landed at was my law firm in Douala.
And they presented the entire executive to me and got my blessings. And then, of course, they asked that I should be the legal advisor and also the national patron. And I gracefully accepted.
CENPA has come a long way, has come a long way. And to be very honest with you, I have been following its activities minute by minute nationwide. This vision of charity and humanitarian services to not only their colleagues, but to the downtrodden, the have-nots, the destitute, this is what warms my heart.
And to permit me, congratulate Mr. Ngah Christian, who is the president, you know, the president of CENPA. We know them by their fruits. And so, I am receiving this award.
It's unfortunate that I'm not in Buea . I had planned to be in Buea myself to receive my well-deserved award. Unfortunately, I'll be presiding at a wedding, you know, today, which coincides with this great event.
So, I thought that I should send this message to cheer all the laureates up and congratulate all of you for this wonderful distinction. It was a wonderful distinction, which is motivational. And please don't go to sleep.
Continue to work for this beautiful nation. Continue to work for this beautiful nation. I will not stop working for this nation.
I will not stop. That's what I do. I sacrifice a lot of my time, my resources, my pleasures, my family, you know, pleasure in order that I can work for my nation.
That is patriotism. And I'm sure you have been acknowledged today and been, you know, rewarded for what you have done over the years. I congratulate you.
I congratulate you in the name of Jesus Christ. I think that, you know, when the event will be over, I should say when all will be said and done, you know, let the Lord take the glory. Let us try to banish inordinate unfolding ambition, unbridled quest for money, wealth, and results, and, you know, unbridled quest for relevance and visibility.
Let us be humble and do what the Lord expects us to do. Let us shun megalomania and narcissism. Let us shun tribalism and xenophobia, thinking that some people are more Cameroonians than the others.
I want to pray with you that we are having elections in this nation this year. Let us pray God, pray the Lord Almighty to talk to us that we should apply best practices, democratic, you know, principles, the rule of law.
We should look at the instruments that guide us into having free, fair, transparent, credible elections so that, you know, we can be able, we would be able, not can, we would be able to have, you know, peaceful elections and then, of course, put the right people there to be able to exploit the huge national and natural resources that we have for the good of all of us.
I pray that the Lord should take all of us back, those of you who are seated here in the hall, back to your various homes, and we continue to praise his name. We say hallelujah, hosanna, because God is great. Without God, nothing good can happen.
With God, you are receiving these distinctions today. Let glory and honour go to him and to him alone. Mr. President and your team, may God bless you.
Continue to put smiles on people's faces. You know, your humanitarian activities don't go unnoticed. You are definitely very generous.
Continue to, the Lord will continue to bless you. It is in giving that you receive. If you don't give, you don't receive.
May God bless all those who are in the hall, bless the members of CENPA, bless also by extension the staff of the member Media Houses, and bless our media in Cameroon that the reporting that will be done in October, between now and October, should be peaceful reporting, responsible reporting, reporting that will bless everybody on the path of peace, and of course, you cannot have peace without justice.
In fact, when I said peace, I start with justice, because take away justice, equity, transparency, accountability, truth, integrity, dignity, and honour, the fear of the Lord, whatever you are preaching is empty. This is the platform.
