Dead but Alive

Hi there,can u believe this?I was only 6years old when i passively took part in the launching of multipartism in Cameroon.You will be asking How?

1990 was a Historic year when multipartism was launched in Cameroon through the creation launching of the Social Democratic Party(S.D.F)

My father braved the tear gas and the beatings from the Police carrying me on his back.

That memorable day was the only day and the last time I have ever inhaled tear gas (33years ago).

Launching of the party

One man ,no nonsense for that matter championed the birth of multipartism .The protesters were singing this song S.D.F fighting for the future,in the name of social ,justice we shall conquer.The party was finally launched that blessed day.

All along,the party participated in all the election organised in the Nation whereby they won councils, sits in the parliament until in 1992 were it was told that S.DF won the presidential elections but was given to the ruling party when the then president of the court proclaiming the results said "my hands are tied"

This caused alot of agitation in the Nation but the Chairman of the party Ni John Fru Ndi decided to trade power for peace and dialogue rather than national protest which could have led to many death

It was only during the 2018 elections that S.D.F party lost its position as the leading opposition in Cameroon .People started accusing him of dinning with the ruling party
Impact of S.D.F in Cameroon

Creation of Independent electoral body
Use of transparent boxes during elections etc
