Libri GmbH Le peuple Bamileke au Cameroun, hier et aujourd'hui

Through a geographical approach, this work presents a historical overview of the main chiefdoms of the Bamileke region in western Cameroon. Beyond presenting the Bamileke people's role in the war of independence and their support for the Bassa people, the book focuses on the prominent Bamileke independence leader, Ouandié Ernest. The emergence of the Bamileke issue in Cameroonian politics was initially marked by repression. French Colonel Jean Lamberton is the one who theorized the Bamileke question. The dynamism of this people eventually made the opposing tribes feel inferior. The controversy between Mono Nzana and Sindjoun Pokam in the 1990s regarding monofascism and ethnofascism was just one example of this. The case of Bishop Tonye Bakot against Father Lado Ludovic regarding "the domination" of Bamiléké students and teachers at the Catholic University of Central Africa falls within the same logic.
