THREE THINGS I LIKE ABOUT CAMEROON

Fertile Soil

1, Fertile Soil .
Cameroon is one of the country's in the world with rich and fertile soil.

With the help of the fertile soil agriculture is one of the activity most Cameroonians are engaged in.

The fertile soil have permitted my country to be able to produce and supply quality food stuffs within and out of the country.

Plantains, irish potatoes , rice , maize, palm oil and fruits are some of the agricultural products people in my country are strongly engaged in.

There are over 100 touristic sites in Cameroon .
Which are mountains, beaches, zoo's, sea port, water bodies, hotels, caves,
Mount cameroon is located in the south west region it's elevation is about 4,040m. And the government always host an international competition every year for athletes to climb the mountain.

Three Things I Will like To See My Country Change

The on going political crisis between the English speaking and the French speaking regions.

Since the out break of this crisis in 2016 Cameroon have lost over 5000 lives and over 1 million of people internally displayed and some and some are seeking refuge in neighbouring countries like Nigeria and alot of properties destroyed.

Image source

Patterning this ongoing civil war alot of social activities have slow down. Schools in most villages in the two English speaking regions have short down and some of them burnt down.

Image source

My greatest dream is seeing the govern solve the issues and life coming back to normal in the country especially in the Northwest and Southwest region.


Image source

2, Poor Roads infrastructure
Though Cameroon is a developing country the poor roads in the country is really something else. In the rainy season it's really a nightmare

Image source

Every year there is increase in the number of cars in the streets but the roads still remain the same with little or no maintainance .

I will like to see my country increase the length of roads and make sure to be maintaining the roads regularly.

3,Embezzlement and corruption

They say the youths are the leaders of tomorrow but that is not the case in Cameroon all big positions in the country are occupied by age and elderly people. And embezzlement and corruption is the every day discussion.

Image source

After school with alot of quality education youths still move arround the streets jobless.

Even the president of the country have been in the post for about 40 years and his cabinet are the same like him we wish to one day see a change in power.

Image source

My greatest wish is to one day see young people in power and occupying great positions in the country.

CONCLUSION

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to write about what i like and dislike about my country and thanks alot for reading my post . I am a patriotic Cameroon and all i dream is to one day see my country develop.
