My Book Tour In Cameroon This Fall



Dear Friends,


I am back in Washington after a three-week (September 23rd, to October 15th, 2024) tour of Cameroon AKA "The Continent" where several radio and television stations received me to talk about my new book entitled "From Beginner to Pro: E-COMMERCE - Business Valuation - Strategies for Online Sellers, With Case Studies" published on August 15, 2024, by my publishing house "The Washington Valuation Group" based in Washington.


I was received in Douala in turn on Afrique Média Télévision, ForYou Media Radio and Television, Jambo FM radio, and Jambo Télévision on Canal 2 International, both presented by President Tchop Tchop. Then, still in Douala, by CRTV Littoral where I did 2 shows, one live and the other delayed, and finally by Volume 3 FM radio. In Yaoundé, I had the honor of being received by Royal FM radio where I did more than 2 hours of broadcasting in a fluid and enriching format for listeners. Due to time constraints, I could not do CRTV Television and Equinoxe radio and television. But it's postponed. In terms of media tours, it's hard to do better. During my stay, I also met several public and media personalities such as President Andre BANDA Kani, Bertrand Tatsinda, Fabrice Ndoum, Jonathan Batenguene, Jérôme Ebossama, Serge Espoir Matomba, Manuela Sike, Cassandra Begoude Madonne, Mrs. Clarisse Wiyrdoven, Parfait Ndom, Martin Kelle, Mr. Mbarga, Dr. Ndouma, President Tchop Tchop, Aristide Ngos, Yannick Ngelewi, Baudelaire Nguene, Mrs. Justine Fotso, John from Volume 3 Radio, and I certainly forgot others.


I then met some businessmen like Mr. Alphonse Nafack, promoter of JFN University in Douala, who introduced me to the wonders of this very ambitious and unique private university in the academic landscape in Cameroon. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of investment and academic programs in this university and the partnerships established between this university and international organizations in the world to be at the forefront of technology in its university.


Then, I was received privately by Dr. Fritz Ntone Ntone, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Aéroports du Cameroun and Chairman of the Board of Directors of SMID, around whom were the Lawyers and some members of the Board of Directors of SMID with whom we discussed the current situation at the Société Métropolitaine d'Investissement de Douala (SMID) and in particular the apprehensions of SMID investors from the diaspora in North America (United States and Canada) that I represent. We discussed the prospects for emerging from this crisis that has lasted too long. At the end of our discussions, I dedicated my new book to them, which they accepted with pleasure.


I crowned my meetings in Cameroon with a visit to the Minister of Secondary Education, Dr. Nalova Lyonga Pauline, who received me in audience for nearly an hour, during which we discussed at length several topics related to the education of young people in our country. I took the opportunity to dedicate my new book to her, which she accepted with great pleasure.


I would like to thank all those who worked closely or from afar for the success of my visit to Cameroon, in particular my former colleagues from ENSET Annexe de Nkolbisson (ADEAN), as well as several journalists, technicians, receptionists at my hotel (Hôtel Résidence La Falaise d'Akwa, Bafang and Yaoundé where I stayed during my travels) who did it in a very short period of time when nothing predicted such a success. I will not name them all here, but they will recognize themselves.


Thank you to you all for the great work.


See you soon!
