NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A VALIANT HEART No. 00056/A/05-09/RDPF-KUMZSE/ADN-2025
OUR CITIZEN AND PATRIOTIC APPEAL TO PRESIDENT ISSA TCHIROUMA BAKARY FOR UNWAVERING SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT BELLO BOUBA MAÏGARI’S CANDIDACY FOR OCTOBER 12, 2025.
THE CHANGE OUR PEOPLE HAVE LONG YEARNED FOR IS NOW POSSIBLE — DEMOCRATIC ALTERNATION ENABLED BY THE ELECTORATE’S CALL ON OCTOBER 12, 2025.
Mr. President Issa Tchirouma BAKARY,
At this decisive moment when our beloved homeland stands on the cusp of writing a new chapter in its history, allow me to address you with deep humility and sincere respect, mindful of the height of your intellect and the depth of your commitment to Cameroon.
“True courage consists in understanding the stakes beyond the obvious, in acting for the higher interest of the nation, even when the path is difficult and choices controversial”—this maxim, which I dedicate to you, illuminates the very essence of my démarche.
October 12, 2025, presents itself as a pivotal date, a moment when Cameroon’s fate may stand at a crossroads between maintaining an uncertain status quo and the promise of a resolutely peaceful and calm transition.
It is therefore urgent, Mr. President, that you listen attentively to the call of the times and to the vision carried by President Bello Bouba MAÏGARI. His project for change is not mere political ambition; it is the fruit of historical and strategic wisdom rooted in the unique reality of our country.
You know well that the late President Papa Ahmadou B. AHIDJO, in his foresight, established a bicameral executive power, jointly entrusting the destiny of our State to President SE Paul Biya and Prime Minister SE Bello Bouba MAÏGARI. This exceptional cohabitation, more than a simple institutional framework, is a major political legacy, offering a subtle balance between complementary forces. He was not obliged to act thus; he could have isolated executive power. But he made this strategic choice, a “divine gift” for shared governance.
Mr. President, your commitment to support Bello Bouba MAÏGARI’s candidacy fits within this salutary and constructive continuity. For it is not a setback or a lack of merit on your part, but a high responsibility: to prioritize the nation’s greater good beyond individual aspirations.
Victor Hugo rightly said:
“The future is a door, the past is the key.”
It is in this spirit that we must draw from our history to forge the future of a reconciled, united, and prosperous Cameroon.
With only 36 days remaining before the election, your voice and influence are more precious than ever. By joining your strength to that of President Bello Bouba MAÏGARI, you breathe into our people the breath of hope, the assurance that peace and dignity remain within reach.
Your leadership, shaped in intellectual and political arenas, can be the enduring bridge between past failures and future promises. Supporting this project is to offer millions of often forgotten Cameroonians a light at the end of the tunnel, a reason to believe once more in the brilliance of our nation.
I invite you, Mr. President, to see this not as a mere political choice but as a call to greatness of spirit, generosity, and insight—the qualities that forge true builders of History.
Together, with the strength of reason and the wisdom of the heart, you can be the architect of a peaceful transition, ensuring that tomorrow’s Cameroon is a beacon of stability, justice, and progress on our continent and beyond.
With all the respect, loyalty, and admiration your stature deserves,
Fraternally yours,
Dr. NDEMMANU Antoine De Padoue, Ph.D. in Social Economics
National President of RDPF-KUMZSE
