Response to Herakles’ Response to Land Grab Accusations‏ *

By Christopher Fon Achobang

Christopher Fon Achobang is a Rights Consultant based in the South West Region of Cameroon and has paid dozens of trips to the concession area, listening to local populations. 

Sincerely, I wish to thank CEO Bruce Wrobel for coming down from his New York Ivory Tower to bare his identity and feelings on the modern global genocide in preparation and perpetuation in the South West region of Cameroon.  It is admirable what the venture investments of Bruce Wrobel have done in other parts of Africa, which he is not ready to replicate in Cameroon, perhaps because of the vacuous business and legal environment. 

As I read through Bruce Wrobel’s epistle, I had to keep reminding myself that I was not reading a speech from the Third French Republic, presented by a colonial administrator/CEO, to the French National assembly in 1890. Apart from the language being English and the speaker being in New York, this open letter is a reminder to Africans that the colonialism they fought in the 1950s is rearing its ugly head again and is about to disinherit them and push them back into slavery. The only difference here is that the colonial bargain was between the European powers, while this new genocide is between new multinational vultures and African hawks in power.
