There’s no good enough excuse why their govt behaves as if legalizing it would have to take some time before it could happen. Just declare it legal and make it so.
Hahahahahahaah yessssssssssssss …I’m going back home to grow !!!!!!!!!!
In case you’re wondering why there are protests in English Speaking Cameroon… Here’s a doc I found…

SOME HARD FACTS NECESSITATING THE STRIKE ACTION. JUST READ THIS AND SHARE
STATISTICAL PROOF OF CONSPIRACY TO ELIMINATE THE ANGLOPHONE LEGAL SYSTEM AND ITS COMMON LAW VALUES.
Southwest Region
148 Magistrates in the Southwest – 58 are Francophones = 39.2 %
89 Magistrates in legal department in the Southwest region. 54 are francophones = 60.7%
50 Magistrates working in Buea (Bench & Legal Department) – 20 are francophones = 40%
28 Magistrates in the legal departments Buea – 20 are Francophones = 71.4%
30 new bailiffs were appointed in January 2014 and 28 are Francophones = 93.2%

Comparing Major Regional Headquarters:
Situation of Anglophones in Douala and Yaounde Courts compared with situation of Francophones in Bamenda and Buea.
119 Magistrates in the Courts of Douala – 2 are Anglophones = 1.7%
107 Magistrates in the Courts of Yaounde – 2 are Anglophones = 1.9%
As a reminder, 49% of Magistrates in Bamenda and 40% of Magistrates in Buea the Anglophone regional headquarters are Francophones.
QUESTIONS:-
Why are more Francophones sent to our key jurisdictions and only an insignificant number of Anglophones sent to the francophone key jurisdictions?
If at all there is blending of both systems, why are our Anglophone Magistrates only good for
Tcholire, Ambam, Poli, Ntui, Kousseri, Yokadouma, Batouri,Tignere etc;
and not considered good for Yaounde and Douala?
Why is it that almost all the newly appointed bailiffs in Anglophone Cameroon are civil Law trained jurists?
Do you think the envisaged appointment of Notaires will depart from this train if any?
These disturbing statistics should be forwarded to the press and all Anglophone personalities for the doubting Thomases to see.
You can fool some people sometimes, but you can’t fool all the people all the time.
This is just the beginning, we are soon to come up with the list of all the Head of Courts, Prisons, Police Stations and Posts, Gerdamemerie, Heads of Parastatals, Appointment in the Military, Police etc etc etc.
Why is the Language of the military only French in a Bilingual Country?
Why is French the Language of the Military Courts in a Bilingual Country?
Just imagine that the reverse was true, where English language takes the center stage, will our Francophone Brothers and sisters be silent?
Your opinion is as good as mine. …

[6/11 21:20] +46 76 298 08 06: Hi All,
Many years after Anglophones in Cameroon began their long tortuous journey in reunification, teachers’ Unions and PTA’s have, after reflecting on the cultural carnage visited on their children decided to take a bold step. They have written to notify the PM that all schools will be shut down from Monday 21 November 2016, until proper attention is given to the problems that have beset their educational system.
In our time, we revered those who excelled in the GCE O and A’Levels. They were given priority in scholarships, and they chose the professional school they wanted to attend, that is if they did not wish to go abroad. That was what EXCELLENCE meant.
The next year, other children worked equally hard to enter that exclusive league. We hailed them and used them to proudly talk about our schools in Anglophone Cameroon. Families who had such children were treated kindly and with respect. That was Excellence! Even when the UB med School started, the same principles applied – Those with a good performance in the GCE were considered in the scoring of certificates so that the GCE was given its real value.
Today, it is common to see a 25-point scorer failing the so-called concours or selling sim cards at MTN while students with 4 points are sitting comfortably in the Medical School classroom. The teachers question this paradox and the cultural onslaught the government has undertaken against Anglophones in Cameroon.
This is not a child’s play. Stand up and be counted. Educate your children; tell them what is happening and be sure that you give the teachers’ action maximum support. All teachers from nursery school up to university are part of this struggle. Even govt, mission and private schools will close down.
Join your voice and let the Anglophone cry be heard. Keep your children safe at home; away from the claws of provocateurs. Read this document and pass it on! Education for all is success for us. Peace

The extermination of a people in a peaceful manner is through the erosion of their educational system. I wonder if you are aware of the fact that the Universities of Buea and Bamenda were created because Anglophones cried out loud that the lo e University of Yaounde was offering a majority of course in French against Anglophones( this forced some to become bilingual though) but this was in complete disregard of the Constitution which provides for two official Languages- English and French.
To ensure that these languages survive, there is need for separate educational systems upholding the various educational backgrounds. Remember that English and French came to substitute German since Germany was defeated in world War I. The situation would have been different if Germany won the wars or if there were no wars at all.
Thus during the trusteeship period of Britain and France, both parts of the divided Cameroon were taught in these languages and with the accompanying modes of administration- assimilation and indirect rule. The English had the indirect rule which gave powers to the local authorities in order that the British could rule through these local authorities(Chiefs).
They left us with the House of Chiefs and a House of Assembly. They left us with an Anglosaxon education system and common law legal system. The COMMON LAW LEGAL SYSTEM has some key courses especially EQUITY…which is to come in where the law has not provided…even though it follows the law.
The COMMON LAW SYSTEM is grounded on the foundation of JUDGE MADE LAW and the DOCTRINE OF PRECEDENCE whereby, a judge will either interpret the law according to the circumstances of the case and the principles of EQUITY or the judge will also either follow a past judgment or distinguish it given the particular facts.
It is quite different from CIVIL LAW (Practiced in The Francophone regions) which is codified eg OHADA, CIMA CODE CEMAC RULES COBAC etc. In these laws, everything is written and there is no way you look at particular circumstances to take a decision.
Today we are faced with a situation whereby, the course in Law at the University are being removed so that in the next 10yrs, there will be no common law. Francophones are being trained in our schools to teach our children. They come without a background in English. They take up all the places for training. 80%of professional schools of teaching in our schools is taken up by Francophones.
70% of the teaching and administrative positions in our schools is by francophones. DOs and other Regional top officials are Francophones, they issue administrative orders in french to a population that is 98% English speaking. Our Hospitals are manned by Francophones and they diagnose and prescribe to our patients in french even though these patients do not understand french.
ALL these are against the constitution. How do you expect one not to think that something is wrong? The highest law of the land is the CONSTITUTION. I wonder when the Clause prescribing the two languages was changed. If it is not changed, don’t we all see that the lawyers have a reason to cry foul play? Why do our "chiefs"(some are really not chiefs) get to the air and claim that they dissociate themselves from the strike action of lawyers.
If lawyers were fighting for their rights, they will be asking for EMOLUMENTS (periodic payments made according to how much you have paid into the coffers of state) which is in the Law organising their practice.
If the lawyers were fighting for themselves, they will be asking for MONOPOLY of practice which is done in other countries of the world. But in the demands made by COMMON LAW LAWYERS, everything is for the INTEREST of ALL including the Francophones. Why do they treat us this way?
How would a government award a contract for the tarring of the road from Bamenda to Bafousam and the funds get finish at BABAJOU? How was the co tract awarded when the funds were not enough.?
Why do we think that Ndian Division which provides for over 35% of the GDP does not need a kilometer of TARRED ROAD? WHAT did they do wrong?
These are just legitimate demands and grounded in the INTEREST OF ALL and it is just time to make these outrageous pretense of national unity and integration to stop and that all of us have a right to complain.
YOU CANNOT BEAT A CHILD AND REFUSE THAT HE SHOULD NOT CRY OR EVEN TELL HIM HOW TO CRY. Any one who loves you tells you when you go wrong. You cannot tell him how to tell you because he is the one feeling the pain.
this should be legal world wide
When someone does something that is illegal, the consequences are fully theirs.
Nasrullah Cannabis 😂
Lol we should probably legalize it, it would bring lots of tourism for sure and while its value would drop a lot, since mlre people would uss it I think it would cover the losses easily.
I need such a place in my backyard so that I can pluck a leaf and put it into the chimney .
Lenanese canibas farmer, so what, they should get life, look at how many families lives they destroy!!!!!!!
I suffered a close head TBI Subdurmal Hematoma about a decade ago now. Cannabis does wonders for me! without cannabis I slur, overthink, agitated, anxiety, whole body hardens like concrete and stiff, heads becomes cloudy, daze and see tracers in eyes, I breathe 4x as fast normal, and on and on. with CBD I can get relief for about a 1-2 hour of medication, depending upon the variety and how its applied. I like CBD baths personally haha, damn I love those but yeah mannn. Let me grow my pot man. Peace and Love.
Legalize it …….tax it ……. Keep it organic….. Nature ‘s gift
Cannabis is good for pain !
i hv a question.. (without hate for tht guy) if sm1 sell meth for their life shld tht be legal?🤔
We’re already tripping over it in the UK…you couldn’t get any more on the island. As for the Police …holy f//k there aren’t any outside London and if you try to contact them its by email only. What a turd fest this place is becoming under Corporate Parliamentary Globalism.
I dont understand. Prohibition of alcohol was worked out in the 30’s, and that is much more harmful to families and communities. Why would the world not reap the benefits of something that can feed families like this by production, Civilisation has used hemp for hundreds of years, and medicinal cannabis is proving to have more healing potential than ever thought. Things need to change.
Sweden declares that crimes are not crimes just some ones fun
De crimininalize it in the uk look at portugal for the statistics
Lebanon would have a big market for cannabis in Israel…everyone seems to smoke it there
