Temperature is rising and rising as we all look forward to join you in commemorating #IWD2022 to support this year's campaign #BreakTheBias. The theme “gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”. “Advancing gender equality in the context of the climate crisis and disaster risk reduction is one of the greatest global challenges of the 21st century is infact well chosen. I think there is nothing more important than taking advantage of the heavy dose of Mother Earth to commit to memory all your efforts in changing lives positively. Today is March 8, you should always know that real men will be along to accompany you throughout the year and not just a single day. The pure will be there to #BreakTheBias by joining you in celebrating your social, economic, cultural and political achievements. This is a goal we all stand to achieve for our homes, community, Division, region, Nation, continent and the world at large.
My dear sister, mothers, aunties, some years ago one wise man, (Sa Majeste Michel Kamse, Mayor of Yaounde III) inspired me alot when he advised a couple at wedding. He said beauty lies in a smile, kindness, actions and deeds. And let me contextualize the description by adding that the little you have been doing is what is changing the face of humanity and the progress that we have registered. I salute you for your bravery. I continue to look up to you as the woman emancipators. From a distant, you stood out of the madding crowd in a world where men (us) claim their position next to God. When in homes, along streets and in drinking spots we still have men who wear Mike Tyson to transform women to bunching bags. I know and I believe you have succeeded where others did not.
In Cameroon, they are millions of women who have moved above the male artificial barriers to becoming Ministers, Directors, Senior Divisional Officers, Parliamentarians, development experts, lawyers, journalists, pastors etc. In fact this rare specie of woman apart from the fact they are caring mothers in their various homes have become role models to other young girls. However, since charity begins at home, I would like to use this opportunity to pay respect, appreciation and love to the woman who brought me to this world, my mum, Regina Muchop as she is known by her young girl’s name and Makfu Miriam Labu Awudu Ma'amu'. Nothing is worth celebrating than a lifetime achievement in purely masculine dominated world. To my personal person, my better half, Beri Comfort, I say thumbs up for constantly challenging the blind exercise of power for me to understand that no institution is immune to change. The story of other women like Rosa Parks, Mother Teresa, Queen Elizabeth, Allen Johnson and many others continue to act as a stimulant to the woman.
The story of other women who are doing extraordinary things in a very common manner will continue to inspire society.
I salute you all, especially Madame Chantal Biya, Minister Mbah Acha Rose, Prof. Nalova, Mafor Yaah Judith epse Achidi, Hon. Esther Ngala Ntala, Hon. Regina Mundi, Hon. Emma Lafon, Edith Kaah Walah, Prof. Uphie Melo Chinje, Col. Ngah Rose Angeline, Yaah Patience Tamfu, Hon. Naomi, Hajara Danjuma, Mary Awudu Ngayi, Sally Ebot Gentry, Christelle Bay Chongwain, Amy Banda, Enaka Yembe, Mbinglo Kimbi Maureen, Comfort Musa, Nakinti Besumbu Nofuru, Angela Fobi, Oba Rose, Clauddia Nsono, DBG Manka'a, Nkenda Margareta, Clemntina Yong, Ada Mbah, Noela Lyonga, Kekwi Linda Kanjo, Wanja Cynthia, Live Brenda and million others.
Thumbs up woman.
