DIPLOMATIC IMPUNITY: WILL HILLARY CLINTON EXPEL CAMEROON'S STREET BRAWLING AMBASSADOR ?

Co-written and Edited by Innocent Chia.

Cameroon's ambassador to the United States, Joseph Bienvenue Charles Foe-Atangana has set a new international standard for unruly behavior and misconduct by assaulting protesters calling for transparency and accountability in the financial-scandal-plagued embassy. The ambassador's abrasive behavior and barbaric actions are putting on center stage - for the doubting Thomases out there - an iceberg of the jarring actions that have long been the outcry of pro-democracy advocates and protesters regarding the battered record of the government of Cameroon as a bastion of embezzlement and corruption. Setting aside the flagrant disregard for the inalienable rights and freedoms of the protestors, the ambassador's shameful behavior speaks volumes about his misreading and misunderstanding of his environment . It is not only beneath his office to be embroiled in such recklessness that could endanger his body; the fact that he despised the responsibility of his security detail probably pales in comparison to the fact that he showed disdain for the American Intelligence service that could have taken care of the matter if the Ambassador had alerted them of  any unruliness on the premises of the embassy.

The price tag of half a million dollars ($520,000) or a over quarter billion CFA (268 million FCFA) was not the issue. As only the Chiareport can reveal, protégés of the Biya legacy had the final word and it was not about football…

Interview conducted by Innocent Chia
 
A little less than a month from today (Dec. 7th – Dec. 18th), in the Danish cosmopolitan capital city of Copenhagen, environmental experts like UNEP’s Richard Tingem Munang will  look to President Obama and his peers to provide political will and leadership on the pressing issue of climate change. While the big boys, and girl, club will be making these far-reaching decisions of global import, a looming concern for activists is what will happen to the Africas of the world that pollute least but are set to suffer most if nothing is done? As climate change Deputy Project Manager at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Cameroon-born Richard T. Munang (PhD) is part of a team charged with the daunting task of saving the world from itself with smart policies that build communities while saving the world.  

Thanks to the convenience of social media networks, Chiareport caught up with Dr. Richard T. Munang for an exclusive focusing on what Climate Change means to Africa and Africans.
