Panthère Of Ndé Triumphs In Thrilling 65th Cup Of Cameroon Final

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

Panthère Sportive of Ndé, affectionately known as “Nzuimanto” of Bangangté, has been crowned the champions of the 65th edition of the Cup of Cameroon.

In a dramatic final on Sunday, Dec. 14, Panthère secured their third-ever title by defeating Colombe FC of Dja and Lobo in a tense penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw in regular time.

The event, which traditionally marks the official close of Cameroon’s sporting season, was presided over by Prime Minister, Chief Dr. Joseph Dion Ngute, accompanied by numerous high-ranking government officials and sports dignitaries.

The match began with high intensity from both sides, but it was Colombe that immediately seized the initiative, applying heavy pressure on the Panthère defense and creating several promising scoring opportunities.

However, against the run of play, it was Panthère Sportive that secured the opening goal. In the 6th minute, Panthère converted their first significant attempt on goal, taking an early 1-0 lead and stunning the reigning champions.

Colombe responded by relentlessly multiplying their attacking tactics, determined to equalize. Their efforts were repeatedly thwarted by a disciplined and defiant Panthère defense, which managed to hold the line for most of the first half.

The breakthrough for Colombe finally came in the final minutes of extra time in the first half. The sustained pressure yielded a penalty kick, which the reigning champions coolly converted to level the score at 1-1 just before the break.

Returning for the second half, both teams resumed with intense pressure, trading impressive moves in midfield and attack. However, despite the best efforts and strategic substitutions, neither team could break the deadlock.

The second half began with renewed aggression from both sides. The teams traded impressive moves and opportunities, but neither could secure the winning goal. The match remained locked at 1-1 through the remainder of regular time and extra time, culminating in the decisive penalty shootout that saw Panthère emerge as the deserved champions.

Panthère’s victory marks their third triumph in the history of the Cup of Cameroon, adding to titles won in 1988 and 2009. The success is seen as a critical step in reviving the club’s fortunes and restoring its status as one of the nation’s footballing giants.

Their path to the final was marked by tenacity, including a crucial 1-0 semi-final win over the historically venerable Canon FC of Yaoundé. For Panthère, this victory is more than a trophy; it’s a restoration of pride, reconnecting the current squad with their championship history, especially after their last final appearance a decade ago ended in a runner-up finish in 2015.

Colombe FC, on the other hand, arrived at the final seeking to solidify a new era of dominance. As the reigning champions, they had secured their first-ever title in the previous session (2024), beating Aigle Royal of Menoua 1-0. Their second consecutive final appearance demonstrated their current consistency, but they ultimately lost the opportunity to achieve a consecutive title.

This final marked the first-ever meeting between Panthère Sportive of Ndé and Colombe Sportive of Dja and Lobo in the Cup of Cameroon championship match. Their league history in the Elite One tournament, however, shows a slight advantage for the defeated side: out of six league confrontations, Panthère recorded two victories, while Colombe secured four wins, including a dominant 3-0 victory in one encounter.

The final remains one of the most memorable and highly-anticipated events in the national sporting community. It not only decides the football champion but also serves as the official platform for presenting trophies to champions across various other sports disciplines, marking a grand conclusion to the sporting season.

Canon Sportif of Yaoundé still holds the record as the most outstanding team in the history of the Cameroon Cup, having won the trophy 12 times.

The Cameroon Red Cross has received over 7.5 tons of humanitarian aid from the Turkish Red Crescent Society. The aid was formally handed over on Wednesday December 10, with Cecile Akame Mfoumou, the National President of the Cameroon Red Cross, receiving the donation from Turkish Ambassador Volkan Öskiper.

The aids include essential items such as tents, kitchen utensils, and various clothing, specifically aimed at assisting vulnerable populations in Cameroon. During the handover ceremony, Ambassador Öskiper stressed the significance of the support, highlighting that a recent visit by a high-level Turkish delegation to Yaoundé in April 2025 revitalized bilateral relations.

“The needs in the Far North Region are especially pressing,” Öskiper stated, underscoring the challenges faced by both the local and international communities.

He remarked, “While resources are dwindling, the threats and challenges continue to grow.” He called on responsible members of the international community to lead cooperation efforts during these difficult times.

Ambassador Öskiper reaffirmed Turkey’s commitment to standing alongside the Cameroon people, expressing solidarity with vulnerable groups.

On her part, Cecile Akame Mfoumou praised the Turkish Red Crescent Society for its generous contribution, noting that this donation will enhance the resilience of communities that look to the Cameroonian Red Cross for tailored support.

“This assistance aligns perfectly with the needs of many communities striving to strengthen their resilience,” she stated.

Cecile Akame Mfoumou further characterized the aid as not merely material but as a profound message of fraternity and humanity, which aligns with the core principles of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.

She reflected on the longstanding partnership between the Cameroon Red Cross and the Turkish Red Crescent, noting it has blossomed since 2021, when their collaboration began during the Central African National Red Cross Societies Coordination meeting(COSNAC) in Douala.

That partnership has led to successful collaborations, including a 2025 visit from Turkish Red Crescent delegates and business leaders looking for ways to enhance cooperation. Previous support has enabled the Cameroon Red Cross to acquire vital equipment and materials for educational programs in midwifery, nursing, physiotherapy, and laboratory technician training.

Adesh Tripathee, Head of Delegation for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), expressed profound gratitude for the aid, stressing its symbolic importance in fostering international humanitarian solidarity.

He stated, “These supplies represent a long-standing partnership dedicated to supporting the most vulnerable populations in Cameroon.”

Tripathee noted that the aid, particularly the tents, would significantly boost the Cameroon Red Cross’s capacity to provide safe, dignified temporary shelter to families affected by disasters, as well as enhance their community health and first aid initiatives, ultimately saving lives.

Hundreds Honors 21-Year-Old Davy Liam Bolo In Heartfelt Tribute

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

Hundreds of family members, friends, and colleagues have paid their last honours to 21-year-old Davy Liam Bolo, who passed away on November 12 at the General Hospital in Yaoundé after suffering from a long illness. The emotional ceremony highlighted his dedication to service and faith, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew him.

Liam Bolo was buried in the family compound on December 6 in the Ekonou neighborhood of Yaoundé. The burial ceremony was attended by several notable figures, including Monseigneur Jean Baptiste Mendo Mbita, Priest Christian L’abbé Mballa Ntsama, and Rev. Father Adrien Bienvenu Mimboé Mi Ondoua.

Speaking during the ceremony, Priest Mballa Ntsama stated that Davy Liam had come to the end of his journey on earth, and that everyone needed to praise God. He added that Davy Liam was a child who, while on earth, accepted to work in the light, as it is very difficult to see youths embrace and serve Christ as he did.

“We are mourning because death has separated us from him, but on the other hand, it is a new birth, especially for Christians when they return to their Creator, God,” Priest Mballa Ntsama said. “As Christians, we are on a mission, and after that mission, we need to go back to God.”

While urging mourners to grieve in a Christian way, he stressed that death is just a transition, stating that Davy Liam has not died but has simply completed his journey. “To those who have come here to accompany Davy, it is time to accept Jesus Christ. It is time to reflect and take stock of our lives. Let us ask ourselves important questions: If it were me lying here, would God be pleased to welcome me?” he questioned.

Meanwhile, Monseigneur Mendo Mbita remarked that while everyone is mourning, “we should not forget to pray for the departed soul and also reconsider our ways.”

Rev. Father Adrien Bienvenu Mimboé Mi Ondoua described Davy Liam Bolo as a child with exceptional qualities, expressing happiness that wherever he is, God is pleased with him.

Before his passing, Davy Liam Bolo was a Computer Engineer, Graphic Designer, leader of the Sino-American company Green World International, Naturopathic Nutritionist, Manager of the “Health – Balance & Well-being” practice, and an insurance trainer. He also completed multiple training courses in alternative medicine.

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

Just days from now, Colombe of Dja-et-Lobo will face Panthere of Nde in the finals of the 2025 Cameroon Cup. The final, announced by the government, is scheduled for Dec. 14 and will crown the 2025 sporting season in Cameroon.

Colombe enters the final aiming to solidify their recent dominance. They are the reigning champions of the Cameroon Cup, having secured the title in the previous season. Their appearance marks the club’s second consecutive final, showcasing their consistency at the highest level.

The team’s confidence stems from an impressive run, which saw them achieve a domestic treble—winning the League, the Cameroon Cup, and the Super Cup—in a previous campaign.

This history of success, coupled with recent participation in continental competitions, has instilled a strong winning mentality. For Colombe, this final is about continuing their reign and establishing a football dynasty.

Panthere of Nde on their part brings a proud legacy and a burning desire to reclaim former glory. Known historically as one of Cameroon’s major clubs, Panthere has previously lifted the Cameroon Cup trophy twice, in 1988 and 2009. Their last final appearance was a decade ago, in 2015, where they finished as runners-up.

Their journey to the 2025 final was marked by a tenacious semi-final victory, including a hard-fought 1-0 win over the venerable Canon FC of Yaounde. For Panthere, this match represents more than just a trophy; it is a critical opportunity to revive their hopes, reconnect with their championship history, and restore their status among the nation’s elite clubs.

The final will be a fascinating contest of contrasting drives: Colombe’s push for sustained dominance versus Panthere’s quest for revival. All eyes will be on Yaoundé on Dec. 14 to see who will be crowned the 2025 Cameroon Cup champion.

Demand For Answers Grows Louder After Anicet Ekane’s Death In Detention

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

Cameroon is reeling from the death of Anicet Ekane, 74-year-old leader of the African Movement for New Independence and Democracy (MANIDEM) party, who died early Monday, December 1 while in detention in Yaounde.

His passing, just five weeks after his arrest in the wake of disputed Presidential Elections, has ignited fierce accusations of state-sponsored neglect and prompted widespread demands for an impartial investigation.

Ekane, a lifelong critic of President Paul Biya’s 43-year rule, was taken from his Douala home on October 24 by plainclothes officers. Authorities accused him of inciting rebellion and hostility toward the state—charges his supporters dismiss as politically motivated.

Known to suffer from serious heart and respiratory problems, Ekane is said to have reportedly begged for his medication and inhaler in the days before his death. Family members and lawyers say repeated appeals to allow his personal doctor or to transfer him to a civilian hospital were ignored.

The government insists Ekane received proper medical attention at a military Medical Center of the National Gendarmerie facility in Yaoundé and died of natural causes linked to long-standing “chronic illnesses”.

A statement from the Ministry of Defense expressed regret and announced that an internal inquiry has been launched, with President Biya reportedly ordering a full review. Yet few in the opposition or civil society believe an investigation conducted by the same institutions that held him will deliver the truth.

MANIDEM has gone further, openly accusing the authorities of deliberate murder through medical neglect. “They knew he was gravely ill. They refused him care. This was execution by another name,” a senior party official declared outside their Yaoundé headquarters, where distraught supporters gathered in tears on Monday.

The case has swiftly garnered international condemnation. Cameroonians on the streets of Yaoundé have characterized Ekane’s death as a government-orchestrated plan to silence opposition in the country.

“We are not surprised by what is happening because the regime that stole our elections is capable of anything to maintain power. Even if they haven’t done anything, all fingers are pointing at them. Why were they arresting him?” said a street vendor.

Another resident voiced concerns, stating, “The government must be accountable. The Territorial Administration arrested him, and now the Defense Ministry is attempting to justify the incident by revealing his medical conditions. How can they initiate investigations when they were the ones holding him? Does that mean they don’t trust their own doctors? Many questions remain unanswered.”

The European Union delegation in Cameroon called the death “deeply troubling” and renewed demands for the release of dozens of activists and politicians rounded up after the October 12 election.

Germany and Britain issued similar statements, insisting on a transparent probe. Human Rights Watch described the circumstances as “highly suspicious” and urged the involvement of independent medical experts.

On their path, Ekane’s relatives is said to have hired a prominent French criminal attorney who is pushing for an autopsy to be performed outside Cameroon, fearing that any examination conducted locally could be manipulated. A collective of Cameroonian human rights lawyers has echoed that demand.

A veteran of the 1990s struggle to end one-party rule, Ekane remained a thorn in the government’s side for decades. Though he had endorsed Prof. Maurice Kmato for the 2025 Presidential Elections, but his preferred candidate was disqualified.

His death has become a rallying cry for a fragmented opposition still contesting Paul Biya’s declared victory in an election marred by low turnout, allegations of fraud, and deadly post-vote repression.

As grief transforms into anger on the streets of the country, many fear that Ekane’s fate is not an isolated tragedy but a warning of the lengths to which authorities will go to silence dissent in a nation sinking deeper into political crisis. Whether the promised investigation will bring clarity or merely exacerbate mistrust remains a significant cause for concern.

Ethio Telecom Urges CAMTEL To ‘Go Beyond Connectivity’ In New Strategic Partnership

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

Ethio Telecom, Ethiopia’s state-owned telecommunications company, has challenged Cameroon Telecommunications (CAMTEL) to “go beyond connectivity” following the signing of a three-year Master Service Agreement (MSA) between the two public entities. The call for broader digital transformation was made on December 4 in Yaoundé during the signing ceremony.

Ethio Telecom’s Director General, Frehiwot Tamiru, who led a high-level delegation, showcased the remarkable achievements of her company over the past six years. She stressed that Ethio Telecom’s success—evidenced by growth in revenue, subscribers, and products—stemmed from a clear, holistic vision.

“In order to achieve this, CAMTEL must go beyond connectivity, and that is what is driving us,” Tamiru stated. She stressed that realizing this goal—to create “A one, Africa, prosperous, inclusive, and digitally empowered. No one left behind”—requires courage, commitment, vision, strategy, and bold steps.

According to Tamiru, both Ethio Telecom and CAMTEL have a mandate that extends past simply being operators. They must act to “go beyond connecting and enabling the government, create an inclusive, affordable, accessible for urban and rural communities.”

**Ethio Telecom GM speaking during the occasion**

“Expanding infrastructure alone is not enough,” she continued. “To be relevant and to stay in the market, relevant meaning to their customers, to the nation and the government, we need to embrace digital transformation first for ourselves.”

Tamiru affirmed that Ethio Telecom is in Cameroon to share its extensive experience in digitally transforming its company and the country, noting that millions of Ethiopians now benefit from the strategic initiatives taken over the last decade.

“At the center of this transformation and the strategic alliance, we are aiming to accelerate the economic growth of Cameroon. The digital transformation is not going only to benefit Cameroon but it’s going to benefit its customers, government, the ecosystem at large,” she concluded.

CAMTEL: Partnering With A Proven Performer

For CAMTEL, General Manager Judith Yah Sunday epse Achidi welcomed the Ethio Telecom delegation, describing the MSA as the “culmination of months of profound and constructive exchanges, of transparent and ambitious discussions and of rigorous technical work.”

She highlighted a shared conviction: “Africans can no longer be satisfied with following global digital revolution. We must become architects of our own.”

In choosing Ethio Telecom, one of Africa’s largest operators, CAMTEL is “not merely entering into cooperation but aligning Cameroon with the trajectory of proven performer, strategic discipline and operational excellence,” Judith Sunday said.

She added that the agreement comes at a pivotal moment, as citizens’ digital expectations rise and as the Cameroonian government, led by President Paul Biya, has prioritized digital modernization.

Judith underscored the agreement’s pragmatic value, calling it technical, operational, and strategic. The MSA creates a structured framework for joint infrastructure planning and modernization, the mastery of mobile money operations, the strengthening of sovereign digital services, the improvement of customer experience and service quality, and the development of human capital.

“Africa does not need to import all its models as Africa can generate its own models,” Sunday asserted. “Your institution demonstrates that a public operator can transform itself, scale digital adoption, sustain financial performance, drive national innovation, foster inclusion, and to do so while remaining fully aligned with the strategic vision of the state.”

She stated the partnership is a “new bridge, a digital bridge, a bridge of expertise, a bridge of ambition, a bridge of technological solidarity,” affirming that Africa’s future will be shaped by African innovators and leaders like Frehiwot Tamiru.

The three-year strategic partnership is designed to strengthen South-South cooperation and accelerate Cameroon’s digital transformation. The collaboration focuses on four priority areas to support the country’s digital ecosystem.

These include the expansion of CAMTEL’s Blue Money electronic payment service and the digitalization of public services through the deployment of a sovereign Government Cloud. Furthermore, the partnership involves the modernization of telecommunications networks with the advancement of 4G, 5G, and other innovative technologies.

The collaboration aims to support CAMTEL’s internal transformation, covering organizational improvements, upgrades to information systems, and initiatives to strengthen customer-centric culture.

Meet Elsila Nyuyleiyi, Rising Voice Connecting Cultures & Hearts

By Etienne Mainimo Mengnjo

In a music industry often saturated with rapid trends and disposable hits, one artist is steadily forging her own path: Mary Elsila Wirba Nyuyleiyi, known artistically as “Nyuyleiymo”.

**Mary Elsila Wirba Nyuyleiyi, aka Nyuyleiymo**

Growing up in the Northwest Region of Cameroon, Nyuyleiymo was deeply influenced by the rich tapestry of traditional rhythms, church choirs, and the vibrant storytelling of her community. It was in this culturally diverse atmosphere that her passion for music blossomed.

“I’ve always believed that music serves as a bridge,” she reflects with a warm smile. “It’s a connection between hearts, generations, and tribes. This message has guided me since childhood—preaching peace and love among all.”

This profound sense of purpose fuels every note she sings. Nyuyleiymo’s music unapologetically celebrates African identity, intertwining gospel harmonies with traditional melodies and modern Afrobeat elements.

“My musical journey has inspired me to create cultural songs that resonate with our roots and personal journeys,” she explains. Each track is a chapter of her life, a testament, or a gentle invitation for reflection.

Over the years, Nyuyleiymo has developed a robust catalog: two full albums and a growing array of impactful singles, including “Mbam,” “Kingan,” “Celebrate God,” “You’re Who You Are,” and the uplifting “Authority Remix,” which showcases collaborations with some of Cameroon’s rising talents.

“My music embodies my thoughts, emotions, and experiences,” she says. “Through it, I aim to address themes of self-identity, cultural pride, and societal issues.”

Despite facing the familiar struggles of independent artists—limited funding, fierce competition, and the pressure to remain relevant—Nyuyleiymo steadfastly adheres to her vision.

Her formula for success? Hard work, consistency, and authenticity. “Challenges will always present themselves,” she acknowledges, “but when your music stems from a genuine place, people resonate with it. They connect.”

Nyuyleiymo is passionate about passing this authenticity on to the next generation. To young dreamers picking up microphones across Nso, Cameroon, and beyond, her message is clear: “Be yourself. Work hard. Never give up. The path may be difficult, but if you stay true to who you are, your voice will find its audience.”

Outside of music, Mary Elsila Wirba Nyuyleiyi is a multi-talented individual—a skilled songwriter, dedicated freight forwarder, talented esthetician, and passionate naturopath. Yet, no matter how many roles she takes on, music remains her most powerful calling.

With each new release, Nyuyleiymo continues to rise—not just as an artist, but as a quiet revolutionary, using her melodies to remind a divided world that unity is possible, one song at a time.
