Let the Tech Journey Begin.
Sometimes it takes years for one to prepare for
an act that takes just seconds. It takes years for an overnight success. It
takes long to be ready. I am tired of being ready. I’ll start mushy washy and
just hope as I move along it’ll all get better.
This blog is dedicated to my mentors; the
rebels; the stubborn ones… the outcasts and those undertakers-the crazy ones-
who believed in an idea, a concept and went against the world to prove it. The
ones whose fathers thought they would drag the family name to shame and whose
mothers wept when they decided to drop out of school and pursue their
convictions.
This is for you who after your advanced level
pursued your gut, you who invested your sweat without concrete hope for the
next day, and you who chose the ‘University of Life’ instead of UB or Ngoa or
Soa.
This is for you who wake up every morning with
the strong belief that you can change the world, that you can impact your
community and that all you need is a dream to cling on.
This is for you… all over the beautiful nation
of Cameroon, you …who is making a difference.
Ode to the Cameroonian Entrepreneur
They call you crazy; we say they are lazy,
They
call you mad. Let’s see who ends up sad.
They say you are stubborn and stupid, put on
your aprons and thank Cupid.
For it is the love of your passion to solve
problems without strict fashion,
That
wakes you every morning. Maybe no one calls you ‘Darling’.
Not your mother, sister, brother nor Father.
But know that by you… many stand.
That in your sea of struggle with eyes set on
the distant land,
We watch. We wait.
You’ll touch the prize and win no matter how
late.
No age nor sex nor profession defines you,
Neither race nor press nor confessions confuse
you.
You stand by your dream and we by you.
You are our heroes.
You are our Entrepreneurs.
