Bloggers learning about Good Governance

From Bamenda With Love. Ok, i just couldn't resist that title. Was inspired by a fellow Blogger's Blog, named "From Douala With Love" #ReneJackson.
Let me explain. I'm currently in Bamenda, for an empowering seminar. Indeed it is! 18 bloggers from Yagaoua, to Yaounde, brought together by the Action Foundation AFCIG,
The goal, to get us bloggers develop an interest in good governance specifically (#HonJosephKwi). Overall, empower bloggers to become better, more performant, more accountable, more responsible.
It's a 2 day seminar, and boy!, have I learned. A lot about the dynamics of social media. Courtesy @VictorvanReijsoud and #Chedjou-Kamdem.
-Did you know that Douala is in the Top Ten of Twitter Towns in Africa. Douala twitter users: I hail oh!
-Did you know that LinkedIn is the fav social media for Cameroonians? But come to think of it, it's not so surprising. It's a great site to give visibility to both professionals and job seekers, so of course, almost 1/4 of Cameroon's Internet users are on LinkedIn. 
I'm so loving everything I'm learning. And I'm so loving you for taking the time to read this. So, yeah, from Bamenda, with love! 
 Kudos to @Ngasa Wise Nzikie, he's an amazing trailblazer. Please like his Facebook page #ActionFoundationAFCIG.
 A bigger and better me in 2015.

You all reading this can effect change and good governance within your own sphere. It starts by learning about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Do you agree?
