Medics</a></h3> <div class="entry-content"> <div class="entry-body"> <strong>By Azore Opio (The Post newspaper October 30 2009)<br/><br/>A cross-section of traditional health practitioners, THPs, based in the South West Region October 22-24 at the Executive Hotel, Buea, brainstormed on how to work Together with Medical Practitioners. The workshop that held under the auspices of AFRICAphonie with Mwalimu George Ngwane as Executive Director came in the wake of continual conflicts of interest between the two health practices.<br/> Among the many questions raised that THPs encounter such as illegality, quackery and the non-ratification of the law on traditional medicine; widespread and increasing use of complementary and alternative therapies, the participants agreed that the health care system today is a dynamic, rapidly changing world of multiple healing modalities that overlap and interact on many levels.</strong> </div> <p class="entry-more-link"> <a

And with good reason. Most of what passes for “Cameroonian history” in schools is a sanitized version of the country’s history whose sole purpose is to reinforce “state control” and “toe-the-line” concepts such as “unité nationale and intégration nationale. These concepts seek to legitimize the official narrative on the “colonial partition” of the Cameroonian family and the ultimate “reunification” of these long lost brothers and sisters against all odds in 1961 in a “historic burst of nationalism”. Any piece of history which either questions or contradicts this official narrative, or fails to add value to it, is simply ignored or discarded. The result? Many key events and personalities in Cameroon’s pre-colonial and colonial history remain largely unknown and confined to local and ethnic folklore.</strong></p></div></div> </div> <p class="entry-more-link"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/2008/07/movie-review-ku.html#more">Continue reading "Movie Review: Kuva Likenye, a Historical Documentary" »</a> </p> </div> <div class="entry-footer"> <p class="entry-footer-info"> <span class="post-footers">July 28, 2008 at 07:51 AM in <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/movie_review/">Movie Review</a> </span> <span class="separator">|</span> <a class="permalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/2008/07/movie-review-ku.html">Permalink</a> <span class="separator">|</span> <a class="entry-comments" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/2008/07/movie-review-ku.html#comments">Comments (4)</a> <span class="separator">|</span> <a class="entry-trackbacks" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/2008/07/movie-review-ku.html#trackback">TrackBack (0)</a> </p>   </div> </div> <div class="entry-category-movie_review entry-author-jimbimedia entry-type-post entry" id="entry-41333852"> <h3 class="entry-header"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120301235647/http://www.africaphonie.org/2007/11/africaphonies-l.html">AFRICAphonie’s Latest Telefilm: A Classical Tri-therapy Against the HIV/AIDS Pandemic</a></h3> <div class="entry-content"> <div class="entry-body"> <p><strong>By Donatus Fai Tangem*</strong>  </p> <p><strong>The Cameroonian Telefilm scene has once more been adorned by yet another AFRICAphonie production entitled “Positive living” (live and let’s live).
