Laughter they say is as
powerful as medicine to human beings. Ngengeh Augustine Njah commonly known as
Dr. Agus is a household name in Donga Mantung Division in the North West Region
of Cameroon thanks to the Millennium Television, a local television channel in
Nkambe. He made his way to fame through a TV show “wipe your eye” which he animates every day. “When I was a child, my friends use to tell me that I am funny. While in
Secondary School, I registered as a member of the drama club. That is how even
teachers started admiring me and I also developed interest in it”, says
Ngengeh Augustine Njah. The day I acted in a drama in church even my parents
congratulated me. I remember my father likened me to Jean Michel Kankan”, he
continued. If you have never had the opportunity to meet someone who can make
you laugh, coming closer to Dr. Agus would make you laugh your tears out. After the 7:30 pm news on Millennium TV,
every little child in Nkambe goes closer to the TV to watch Dr. Agus. What is
peculiar about this rising star is that he adds humour to what is in the news,
transforms societal ills into laughter and creates awareness on burning issues
by reducing them to the understanding of the common man. A regular show on
Millennium TV says it all about this young rising humourist of high standing.
Those who watch it always appreciate the way the young man treats critical
issues that go a long way to sensitize, educate and inform the population of
Nkambe and its environ. Dr. Agus’s “Wipe
your eye” is eloquent proof that the young and talented humourist knows
what society wants and he offers it.
You may disagree with
me that laughter is medicine but no one can fail to agree with me that it is
one of the best instruments to sensitize and educate the public on critical
issues. This is why Dr. Augus has won the hearts of many children in Nkambe. “Every time I am performing any piece, I
always like talk about peace, fear of the Lord and patriotism”. Most of the time, Dr. Agus transforms
himself into a peace crusader, because as he says he believes that no nation,
no society, no community and no family can become sustainable without peace. “The street teacher” as many call him is
very creative and has the God given talent that makes him do what he loves
best.

Gradually, Dr. augus
has become the man who would be invited to every marriage ceremony, birthday
party, public ceremony, school graduation ceremonies etc. Yet meet him along
the street and you would never image because he is calm and very soft-spoken. “My dream is to show to other youths that if
you do what you like well, it ends up paying big. Life is full of challenges
and determination is one that takes up to higher height”, concluded.
