Researching the Legal Truth Behind Southern Cameroons and Post-Colonial Statehood

Clarity. Structure. Evidence.

My work centers on uncovering and explaining the international legal history that shaped the former UN Trust Territory of Southern Cameroons and how incomplete decolonization still affects governance, identity, and regional stability across Africa today.

I analyze the original documents, the treaties that were never signed, the obligations that were not completed, and the administrative gaps that created decades of confusion. Understanding the truth is the foundation for building a stable, lawful, and prosperous society.

I bring an MBA in Finance and a background in strategic marketing and business consulting to this research. This combination helps me connect legal history with economic structure, national strategy, and practical state-building.

Projects

Focused research on law and post-colonial governance.

For more than six decades, the people of Southern Cameroons have inherited a story filled with contradictions, missing documents, and unresolved legal processes. My research examines these issues through:

• United Nations Trusteeship Law

• Article 76(b)

• Resolution 1608

• Treaty obligations and state formation

• Post-colonial political transitions in Africa

I translate complex legal and historical frameworks into clear, accessible language — bridging the gap between international law and public understanding.

1. Legal Status & UN Frameworks

Exploring the international obligations that governed the transition from trusteeship and how the absence of a ratified union treaty shaped present-day challenges.

2. Historical Documentation

Collecting, reviewing, and organizing archival materials from the UN, the UK, and regional sources to reconstruct the legal map of 1922–1984 and beyond.

3. Clarity Education

Developing frameworks that help citizens understand the difference between lived experience, inherited narratives, and documented legal reality.

About My Work

Three Areas of Focus

A nation can only move forward when it understands its foundation.
My mission is not political; it is analytical.
I believe clarity reduces conflict, empowers decision-making, and strengthens future governance.

Why This Matters

• The Missing Treaty: What Went Wrong Between 1961–1964

• The 5 Layers of Ignorance — Why Our History Was Never Explained Properly

• Article 76(b): The Legal Path for Unfinished Decolonization

These studies reveal how misunderstandings of international law shaped the political instability we see today.
