What inspired or motivated you to pursue a career in basketball?

I grew up in the vibrant town of Kumbo, where sports, particularly basketball, played a significant role in the lives of the local children. I was always intrigued by the talent and dedication displayed by the athletes, especially my elder sisters, who were part of the esteemed basketball club known as Bees Basket Ball Club in Shisong. Witnessing their passion and skill ignited a deep admiration within me for the sport. I made up my mind to learn and play basketball, and that’s when I started attending practice sessions at the very same club. Our team was fortunate to have exceptional coaches and even received support from visiting foreign coaches who would generously provide us with basketball equipment. This nurturing environment made basketball feel like a second family to me. As the years went by, I actively participated in various competitions, such as the FENASCO A and B Games, University Games, and local club tournaments. I even had the opportunity to represent my town and compete in the U-14 and U-18 games in Yaounde. These experiences further fueled my passion for the game, despite facing occasional setbacks and losses. I learned to focus on the victories and use them as stepping stones towards achieving my goals, ultimately leading me to be a part of the incredible team I am a member of today.

You recently participated in the continental basketball championship in Egypt. Could you share some of the highlights or memorable moments you experienced during the championship in Egypt?

Our remarkable performance as champions of Cameroon granted us the privilege to represent our country in the African Women’s Basketball League, which took place in Egypt. Participating in this prestigious competition was an unforgettable experience, as I had the opportunity to play alongside players whom I had previously only admired from afar, watching their skills showcased on television. The highlight of the tournament was undoubtedly our first victory against the formidable ASPAC team from Benin. It was a moment of validation, confirming that the countless hours of hard work and training we had put in back home in Cameroon had paid off. The sense of accomplishment was overwhelming, and it further motivated me to continue pushing myself to new limits in the sport.

Reflecting on your performance in the championship, how do you evaluate your personal contribution and the overall performance of your team?

The competition in the African Women’s Basketball League was intense, and the coach had the difficult task of making decisions that he believed would benefit the team as a whole. While I may not have been granted as much playing time on the grand stage, I made the most of every opportunity I was given. As the team captain, I took on the responsibility of providing defensive support to my teammates and ensuring effective communication on the court. During challenging moments and defeats, I strived to uplift the team’s morale and remind them of the effort we had put in, encouraging them to stay focused and determined.

What personal goals or aspirations did you have for yourself while participating in the championship?

Throughout the duration of the competition, my aspirations went beyond personal achievements. I aimed to showcase my skills and abilities on a larger basketball stage, contributing to my team’s overall success. Additionally, I harbored hopes of attracting the attention of scouts and potentially earning a scholarship opportunity. The prospect of interacting with athletes from different backgrounds excited me, as it presented a chance to expand my knowledge and understanding of the game. Moreover, I looked forward to learning from more experienced players, observing their techniques, and incorporating them into my own style of play.

What future goals or challenges do you have in mind for your basketball career?

Looking ahead, my goals extend beyond the competition itself. While maintaining our team’s status as champions is undoubtedly a priority, I am also committed to continuously improving my basketball skills. I aspire to compete on even bigger stages, both nationally and internationally, and I hold the ambition of securing scholarships that will further support my growth as an athlete and scholar. Let me tell you something, I have succeeded three times in both the practical and theoretical parts of the entrance examination into the National School of Youths and Sports (INJS), but I have never been able to pass the oral section. However, I have not lost hope. My hope and aspirations rest in the hands of God, and I am confident that I will ultimately succeed.

What advice or words of encouragement would you give to individuals who are interested in pursuing a career or getting involved in basketball?

To aspiring basketball players, my advice is to embrace the journey wholeheartedly. Put in the necessary work, both on and off the court, to enhance your skills and knowledge of the game. It is important to persist and never give up, even in the face of defeat or setbacks. Stay focused on your goals, set targets for yourself, and work tirelessly to achieve them. Remember to maintain faith in your abilities and have unwavering trust in God’s plan, for when the time comes for you to ascend the ladder of success, nothing can stand in your way.

The Indomitable Lionesses of Cameroon held the Super Falcons of Nigeria to a 0-0 draw on Friday, February 23 in the third round, first leg qualifiers of the 2024 Olympic Games.

Staged at the Reunification Stadium in Douala, Cameroonians came close in the 11^th minute, but Chiamaka Nnadozie prevented them from taking the lead.

Nigeria attempted to take the lead in the 27^th minute, but the opportunity was wasted. However, Cameroon bounced back 12 minutes later, but a timely save from the Nigerian goalkeeper denied the Lionesses the much-awaited lead.

Coming back from the locker room, both teams pushed hard to break the deadlock. Nevertheless, the Falcons thought they had opened the scoring in the 54^th minute, only for substitute Jennifer Echegini’s effort to be ruled out for offside.

In the 64^th minute, Echegini set up Oshoala on the edge of the box, but her effort was well saved by the Cameroonian keeper.

The two teams will face each other again on Monday, February 26 in Abuja for the second leg. The winner between the Falcons and Lionesses will face either South Africa or Tanzania in the final qualifying round.

South Africa looks set to progress into the final round after securing a 3-0 away win against Tanzania also played on Friday.

While Cameroon is seeking to qualify for the Olympic Games after their dismal performance in 2012, the Falcons are aiming for their first Olympic qualification since the 2008 games in Beijing.

Cameroon has not appeared in the Olympic Games since the 2012 event, while the Falcons only participated in the 2008 edition. Cameroon denied the Falcons a ticket to the London 2012 games after winning on penalties in the final round of the qualifiers.

Lionesses Coach – Jean-Baptiste Bisseck reaction after the match

“For the second leg, we may not qualify here, but we can go and get it in Nigeria. The most important thing was to contain this team and always be rewarded for our attacking efforts. It didn’t work out today, but we still had plenty of opportunities. We have no regrets and acknowledge that we could have performed better. Qualification is still a long way off, so we must rely on ourselves and give our best efforts to achieve it. In the recent match against Nigeria, five players from the Guinness Super League made their debut with great intensity, which is a positive sign of progress. Building a team with a mix of experienced and younger players is a key focus for long-term success, even if immediate results may not be fully satisfying. Patience is crucial as we wait for all players to mature and reach their potential. Despite facing challenges, I was pleased to witness the dedication of the players in giving their all. The upcoming second leg will be decided by small margins, and we have identified areas to exploit in Nigeria’s defense. Despite not having all attacking options available, we are confident in our abilities. Nigeria may have home advantage in the next game, but we believe that Cameroon is a strong team and not inferior to Nigeria.”

The statement was made on Monday, February 19 by HE Barry Lowen, British High Commissioner to Cameroon, while officially opening the UK Pavilion at PROMOTE.

During the opening ceremony, the British diplomat stated that this is the third time the UK is participating in PROMOTE and that the theme of a sustainable future will be further explored in a high-level green economy forum to be hosted within the week.

“The UK Pavilion at PROMOTE showcases our commitment to the bilateral partnership and our confidence in Cameroon’s sustainable future. The theme of a sustainable future will also be explored in a high-level green economy forum we will be hosting later in the week,” HE Barry Lowen emphasized.

He also highlighted the progress and support for Cameroonian potentials, noting the participation of Cameroonian Women Entrepreneurs in the UK pavilion. He mentioned that 25 of them will be exhibiting within the week, and a seminar will bring together about 100 women business leaders.

HE Lowen expressed hope that the opening of the UK Pavilion would spark conversations leading to more business partnerships benefiting both Cameroon and the UK, showcasing the depth of the partnership between the two countries for the future.

Elias Pungong, President of the UK-Cameroon Chamber of Commerce, expressed his appreciation during his visit to the UK pavilion. He noted that one can truly feel the growth in the trade relationship between the UK and Cameroon, reaching a new level.

“If you walk around, you see world-class UK companies exhibiting their skills.

Senator Nfon Mukete, who studied in England and has worked closely with many British companies, expressed his delight at the presence of the UK pavilion at PROMOTE and the increasing interest in Cameroon. Despite his various portfolios, he highlighted his special relationship with Great Britain.

“Just two weeks ago, I was part of the delegation that went to the UK for what is called the Green Economy… I believe Britain has the potential to do more creative things in bilateral trade. Apart from our historical ties, there are numerous opportunities for the future, particularly in the area of the green economy. Great Britain is showing great leadership, and you must know that the President of the republic is very keen on the environment, as seen through the country’s engagement in various conferences. It is an area that I am closely observing, and I think Cameroonian businesses should take advantage,” he said.

After opening the pavilion, HE Lowen visited the stands to see how British companies have positioned themselves. The UK has a week-long schedule of activities at PROMOTE, including thematic side events by exhibitors, a symposium, a UK education fair, a business reception, and a Women in Business and Innovation Forum, among others.

It Is Time To Rescue Cameroon Football And Pave The Path To Success – Fans Cry Out

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

The recent performance of the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon has been a subject of intense debate among supporters and fans since they were brutally eliminated from the 2023 AFCON in Cote D’Ivoire. Discussions revolving around the team have dominated local gatherings, whether on the pitch or in social settings, leaving many with unanswered questions.

**Cameroon National Team gearing up for the 2017 AFCON in Gabon** *(Photo Credit: Mainimo Etienne)*

It is disheartening to witness the decline of the Indomitable Lions, who were once the pride of the continent and even the world. The team has now become a mere shadow of its former self, lacking the fighting spirit that was once its emblem.

It is troubling to note that the Lions have been unable to maintain a clean sheet in most of their recent matches. As a result, Cameroon no longer instills fear in other teams when it comes to football, and even if they do, the expectations surrounding the Lions have consistently been below average. Since 2021, the situation surrounding the national selections has been worrisome. The trajectory appears to be on a downward trend, as Cameroon has failed to qualify for various international competitions.

Major tournaments have ended in turmoil for the national football selections across different categories. The U-17, U-20, and U-23 teams, both in the men’s and women’s categories, have either failed to qualify or been eliminated at the group stage. The representatives of Cameroon in continental competitions have suffered a similar fate, prompting many to question the need for a complete overhaul of the football landscape.

Gerald Siad expresses sadness over the current state of affairs and believes it is time to address the situation and find a way forward to revive Cameroon’s football landscape. He emphasizes the need to go back to the drawing board and reassess what is happening. According to him, while countries like Senegal are experiencing success across all categories, Cameroon seems to be stagnant and it is a call for concern.

“I am deeply saddened to witness a remarkable country like Cameroon facing and enduring these challenges. Meanwhile, Senegal is thriving and achieving victories across various categories, while Cameroon has been experiencing consistent losses. It appears that everything has come to a halt. It is imperative to return to the drawing board and thoroughly reassess the factors contributing to this situation,” he expressed.

Football pundit Mohammed criticizes the present FECAFOOT executive, arguing that they have not helped improve the situation. He believes that those in charge of football management in the country should be driven by the spirit of bringing about change through action, rather than mere lip service. Mohammed questions why Cameroon has been eliminated from all international competitions, with qualifying becoming an insurmountable challenge.

“Since the current executive assumed leadership of the country’s football governing body, the trajectory of Cameroonian football has been on a downward slope, leading many of us to question their effectiveness. The prevailing question remains: what exactly is transpiring? Our national team has been eliminated from all international competitions, and it seems that the task of qualifying has become increasingly elusive. It feels as though we are constantly pursuing an unattainable goal,” Mohammed said.

Elias Nsa suggests that a complete overhaul is necessary to address the situation. He advocates for a return to the roots and a focus on youth football as the way forward. Nsa points out that while many countries are actively working to improve their football landscapes, Cameroon appears to be complacent. He urges football stakeholders especially those that have been around sitting on the face to wake up and join the diligent pursuit of success.

Agenda 2063: AU Launches Second Decade Of Acceleration

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

The African Union (AU) has launched the Second 10-Year Implementation Plan of Agenda 2063. The launching ceremony took place on February 17 during the summit of African Heads of States in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia that took place from February 17 and 18.

The implementation plan, also known as the decade of acceleration (2024-2033), is a historic milestone for the African Union, its Member States, and all African citizens. It marks the beginning of the second decade of collective efforts to realize the vision of a prosperous, peaceful, and integrated Africa by 2063.

The Second 10-Year Implementation Plan of Agenda 2063 is a bold and ambitious roadmap for Africa’s transformation. It is a manifestation of the collective will and determination of the African people to shape their destiny. It reaffirms the African dream of unity, dignity, and prosperity for all.

The launch of the plan is a call to action for all stakeholders to join hands and work together to make Agenda 2063 a reality. The success of the plan depends on the ownership, commitment, and participation of all Africans, including governments, regional economic communities, civil society organizations, the private sector, academia, media, and the diaspora.

The plan outlines seven moonshots of how the continent aims to achieve key priorities, goals, and targets in the next 10 years. By 2033, Africa aims to be prosperous, integrated, democratic, peaceful, cultured, people-driven, and influential.

The plan also identifies flagship projects that will have a high impact, such as the African Continental Free Trade Area, the African Passport, the Grand Inga Dam, the Single African Air Transport Market, the African Virtual University, the Pan-African E-Network, and the African Outer Space Strategy. These projects will enhance regional integration, economic diversification, innovation, and competitiveness, as well as social inclusion and cohesion.

Effective coordination, monitoring, and evaluation mechanisms are required to ensure accountability and transparency. The African Union Commission, together with AUDA-NEPAD, will play a leading role in facilitating and supporting the implementation of the plan at all levels.

The African Union has designated the theme for 2023 as the “Year of AfCFTA: Acceleration of the African Continental Free Trade Area Implementation”, aiming to generate greater political commitment and accelerate the effective implementation of the agreement.

By eliminating barriers to trade in Africa, the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) aims to lift 30 million people from extreme poverty and another 68 million people from moderate poverty.

Currently, forty-four (44) member states are state parties to the AfCFTA Agreement following the ratification of the instruments establishing the AfCFTA, while fifty-four (54) member states have signed the Agreement.
