Biya Urges Cabinet Members to Sign Up for Social Media to Avert Spread of Dangerous Information
President Paul Biya
Don’t be surprised to open your social media account tomorrow and find a friend request from Issa Tchiroma or say Mebe Ng’o waiting for your endorsement. President Paul Biya has urged his over 60 cabinet members to aggressively embrace new media by ensuring active presence on social media networks.
The descision we learned is informed by the spiralding number of social network users in Cameroon and the regime’s fear that such a growing trend could lead to a potential threat from young Cameroonians who are fed up with the system.
Biya, had in his 2016 youth day address to the young folks, acknowledged the “highly competitive new information technologies” era they were living in, and called on “large enterprises and other public and private entities” to “…set the example by progressively carrying out their own digital switchover.”
The latest presidential instruction now requires ministers and their ministries as well as other subordinate institutions to have official presence on prominent social networks such as Facebook, Whatsapp, Youtube, Instagram and Twitter, the goal – so they can update Cameroonians and the rest of the world on their day-to-day activities.
Explaining the head of state’s directive at a press conference recently, Communication Minister, Issa Tchiroma Bakary, said government can not be indifferent in an era where almost every communication is fuelled by social or new media platforms.
Tchiroma said, the presence of traditional media channels notwithstanding, Biya also expects Cameroonians to be informed of official government business through major social media networks to which a very large number of citizens belong.
The Arab spring that toppled a number of dictatorial regimes across the Middle East and Africa for instance, was largely successful, thanks to social media.
But apart from informing Cameroonians of their day-to-day business, the government spokesman added what many Cameroonians thought is the original intention of the new order – check the activities of Cameroonians online in the guise of preventing the spread of rumour and false information about government.
The latest move by Biya, who is said to have an up-to-date official facebook and twitter accounts, observers think, may have also been prompted by the sad reality of most ministries or para-statals websites going for several months or years without being updated.
“I am very excited to hear this. If the ministers respect the president’s prescription, then it will be a great idea. That means, for example, that I can be able to receive a tweet informing me of the launch of a competitive entrance examination by the public service ministry” Ambe Julienne, a young Yaounde resident told The Cameroon Journal.
For Ngwa Smith, a Yaounde I university student, Biya’s instruction could well just end up as a pipe dream, like has been the case with other aspects of national life. Hear him: “I have doubts if this will work. The social media is mostly used by us of the younger generation. And everyone knows that our government is a gerontocracy (a gov’t made up of very old people). I am sure some ministers cannot even read and print out an e-mail from their e-mail boxes on their own, without the help of an assistant.”
Mum who has sex with her son plans to marry and have kids by him
51 year old English woman, Kim West gave up her son, Ben Ford for adoption 30 years ago. Ben who was living in the US was able to track her down in 2013 and sent her a letter to let her know he was her son. Ben who had been married 2 years prior to contacting his mum began exchanging phone calls with his mum before they agreed to meet up.
Kim said when they met, it seemed like they had known each other for years.
Kim who is an interior designer said after she met her son, Ben Ford, 32, she started having sexy dreams about him and then realized she was sexually attracted to him so decided to look it up on the Internet. She said while surfing the net, she came across an article on Genetic Sexual Attraction (GSA), and felt like a weight had lifted.
She said the first time they met was in a hotel, she shared they kissed and it progressed from there.
But the couple, who say their sex life is ‘incredible’ and are planning to get married, insist their relationship is not incest, the New Day reports
Kim has now been in a relationship with her biological son Ben Ford, 32, for two years and believe they are ‘meant to be’. She said they are now in love with each other and are trying for a baby together.
Ben who was married for 2 years to his wife Victoria has since divorced her to be in a relationship with his mum. He said his wife was disgusted when he told her but he insisted that the relationship wasn't incestuous.
They claim it is ‘Genetic Sexual Attraction’, a term used for relatives who feel sexual attraction for each other after meeting as adults.

Yesterday, Blac Chyna's mother Tokyo Toni went on one of her classic rants dragging Tyga and the entire Kardashian Klan for all their worth.

Documents leaked from Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca included a television rights contract bearing Infantino's signature.
UEFA confirmed in a statement yesterday that Swiss authorities raided their Nyon offices on Wednesday, despite Gianni Infantino's denial of any wrongdoing.

"Naturally, UEFA is providing the Federal Police with all relevant documents in our possession and will cooperate fully."
