Live Either Free or Die

Patrick Sianne

Let Paul Biya go, now! 

Let him vamoose and leave the Cameroonians held in bondage for this too long in an uncaring dictatorship, FREE. This Freedom that I am calling for is not just for me and my family members and friends. It is deep and meaningful Freedom that allows people to think and act and even fly freely without turning around and looking back and left and right to protect their back and sides from a dictator, be it this Biya’s or the one that may come after.

Liberty has no price. Many are those of the ruling cabal, friends inclusive, who have come to me in private and public, day time and in the thick of darkness at bight, to ask me, Patrick Sianne, since coming back from China, “Patrick, but what do you really want? We are prepared to fix your conditions, if you are ready to tell us, we settle it and you remain silent.”

My answer to them has been then, now and tomorrow viz: “Let Paul Biya go, now! Let him vamoose and leave the Cameroonians held in bondage for this too long in an uncaring dictatorship, FREE. I want Freedom, so, has been my answer. This Freedom that I am calling for is not just for me and my family members and friends. It is deep and meaningful Freedom that allows people to think and act and even fly freely without turning around and looking back and left and right to protect their back and sides from a dictator, be it this Biya’s or the one that may come after.”

It is a natural law for all to be free. Man does not have to be a burden to man, as Biya has become one big bug to a cross section of Cameroon, just in an effort to preserve a power that he inherited accidentally on that objectionable, damned November 6, 1982.

“Je pense donc je suis,” said Descartes, the famous French Mathematician-Philosopher to illustrate how vital is Freedom to Humans in particular and to society at large. Limiting Freedom is holding everyone and everything back from enlightenment and advancement.

So much of import is the necessity to feel free that one of the fifty states of the United States of America, Newhampshire, a State in the East Coast part of the USA called New England, adopted this telling slogan as its State Motto: “Live Either Free or Die.”

This notion is not of just today. It has a historical significance birthing right from the days of the American Revolution, the then nascent nation’s War of Independence from colonial and Imperialistic England or the United Kingdom.

Revolution is first and foremost a question of freedom of the mind. Bob Marley, the great legend of Reggae, underlined this fact in one of his hit tunes of liberation and redemption when he asked us to “emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, non but ourselves can free our minds.”

Sick and tired of oppression, exploitation and cheating by the British colonial masters, patriotic American nationalist of high intellects like Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, John Jay and Alexander Hamilton (Founding Fathers) , as revolutionary ideologues, set out first of all, to provide the ideas markets from which the people were to buy and use to use to free their mind to the critical point when they gather the necessary courage to start challenging the evil system fearing nothing else, but fear itself.

That was the trend of thoughts that pre-set the chain of events, little-step-by- little-step culminating in the famous Boston Tea Party when precipitated the transformations leading to the war and liberation of America under the able leadership of the person who became the first president, General George Washington, the man in honour for whom the capital of th present all-powerful United States of America is named in thanks for his selfless bravery and commitment to the noble cause of FREEDOM.
