Cameroonians At A Cross Road

The Common Man In Cameroon Is At The Mercy of God Cameroon is having a health sector managed by the Ministry of Public Health. Yet sick government officials are all flown to the white man's land for treatment, even those in prison. Is it because they doubt the medical team in the country? Is it because the quality bof drugs they bring into the country is not the best? Is it because top government officials do not suffer the same sickness as the common man? The questions are just to many to enumerate. The questions if answered will just be evident that the majority of Cameroonians who have no choice but to go the medical institutions in the country need to pray very hard for God to cover them from the spirit of death around the country that top government officials are struggling to escape from.
