Former SDF Presidential Aspirant Quits, Takes Leadership Position with CNDP



Teche Nyamusa: Chairman of CNDP

Teche Nyamusa, the one-time SDF Presidential Aspirant has dumped the Social Democratic Front to take leadership position with Cameroon National Democratic Party. Teche Nyamusa who for over 10 years now has been a thorn in the flesh of sit-tied SDF leaders has decided to pursuit his Presidential ambition by crossing the carpet. His attempts to unseat SDF chieftain Ni John Fru Ndi as chairman and even Presidential candidate have made him being “scape-goated” by the Fru Ndi supporters yet he was still vocal until last April 24, 2018 when he decided to quit the SDF.
Those who were of the opinion that Teche Nyamusa was only a drummer in the middle of the road were taken aback when the Supreme Ruling council (S.R.C) of CNDP accepted unanimously the nomination of Mr Felix Teche Nyamusa former S.D.F Presidential aspirant as National Chairman of C.N.D.P.
S.R.C as well accepted unanimously the proposal of the following persons into the supreme ruling positions of the party; Mr Ngala Charles as secretary General and Madam Bridget Mulu Pen as treasurer. The rest of the executive members were maintained in their positions. S.R.C insisted that the new and old members of the executive should swing to work immediately to get the party ready for forth coming elections and other party activities and the confirmation of the executive will be at the plenary in no distant time.
The new CNDP Chairman Felix Teche Nyamusa joyfully accepted the post and promised to work for the interest of all Cameroonians particularly the marginalized. He promised that C.N.D.P under him will listen to the Anglophones as well as francophones. S.R.C accepted the resignation of Baron Peinyam as interim chairman but maintains him as National Adviser. C.N.D.P. resolved to effect a change of her name from Cameroon National Democratic Party to Liberation National Party (L.N.P).

Regular Exercise Can Reduce Risk for Depression



Regular exercise can reduce your risk of depression, no matter what your age or where you live, research suggests.
In a new study, an international team of researchers analyzed data from 49 studies that included nearly 267,000 people in North America, Europe and Oceania. The study participants did not have any mental illnesses and were followed for an average of more than seven years.
High levels of physical activity were associated with a lower risk of depression in all age groups during the follow-up, the investigators found. However, the new study was not designed to prove that exercise actually caused depression risk to drop.
"This is the first global meta-analysis to establish that engaging in physical activity is beneficial for protecting the general population from developing depression," said study author Felipe Barreto Schuch, a professor at Universidade La Salle in Brazil.
"The evidence is clear that people that are more active have a lesser risk of developing depression. We have looked at whether these effects happen at different age groups and across different continents, and the results are clear," he said.
"Regardless your age or where you live, physical activity can reduce the risk of having depression later in life," Barreto Schuch said in a Kings College London news release.
Study co-author Joseph Firth added that "the compelling evidence presented here provides an even stronger case for engaging all people in regular physical activity; through schools, workplaces, leisure programs and elsewhere, in order to reduce the risk of depression across the lifespan." Firth is a research fellow at NICM Health Research Institute at Western Sydney University, in Australia.
More research is needed to determine the minimum amount of exercise required to reduce the risk of depression, and which types and amounts of physical activity may be the most effective, the researchers said.
The study was published April 24 in the American Journal of Psychiatry.
