Why did I continue to ambassador for Tunza Eco-Generation in Madagascar?

by | 17-07-2014 20:41







  • I left Cameroon for Madagascar in March 2014 but continued my mission of sensitization.


When I joined Tunza in March 2014, I had it in mind to extend my reach to Cameroon and beyond. Particularly sub-Saharan Africa, touching almost all countries within the powers I had. I realized Africa is suffering the same problems every where: food insecurity, hunger, floods, diseases, drought and you can name it.


When WWF gave me the opportunity to go to Madagascar and work for conservation, I knew it was time for me to extend information and knowledge about our beautiful planet earth to this other part of Africa.


 Before I left for Madagascar, I realized that Africans were having the same problem: lack of information. Somebody who could tell them how their day to day proceedings contribute to the degradation of our own planet. Somebody to educate the people, so that they can understand a healthy environment means sustainability and productivity.


I decided, I will be the person who will lend a hand to pass a message about the environment to the Malagasy people. A good message to inform and educate them about saving planet earth. Just like Cameroonians are clearing their forests, mangroves, killing important threatened, animal species in the vein of: lions, leopards, tortoise, monkeys, hippopotamus just to name a few. Malagasy people are over fishing, destroying coral reefs, cutting forest and equally killing different animal species.  Looking at the reach biodiversity Madagascar is having: more than 950 medicinal, a great number of fish species and more than 500 animal species, made me even more determined to evangelize about climate change and other environmental ills to them.  


The children you see me here with me, are the light of tomorrow?s Madagascar and I said to myself I must give them what I know which can help them change their own very course and give a better future to them. So, I ventured for three months and today, I am proud to say 300 children, 100 women and 40 men received my counsel concerning how to lead a healthy life style friendly for the environment. This achievement I share with 5 other WWF volunteer with whom I was working in Madagascar.
