Bafoussam joins the world to mourn Foe (03.07.2003)
By Tendong David in Bafoussam
The population of the West province has continued to mourn Cameroon’s fallen hero Marc-Vivien Foe who collapsed and died during the Confederations Cup semi final match between Cameroon and Colombia in France last Thursday night.
In addressing a group of sympathisers in the court yard of the Bafoussam urban council, the government delegate, Mbou Samuel expressed regret that Foe was readily reliving the usual best moment in his football career when the wicked hands of death snatched him in action, before the whole world.
“We know that Marc -Vivien Foe’s death turned our hilarious moments of victory to a melancholic scene of shedding of tears. But we must recognise God’s action as timely. If you and I die here nobody will know. Even when some heads of state die people do not hear or know. But our brother Marc died before the whole world. We saw foreigners shed tears. So Marc was
abig chief on earth”, Mbou said.
Meanwhile, at the CPDM party secretariat in Bafoussam, a condolence book was opened and by Friday afternoon over 240 signatures had been registered.
Kandem Hubert CPDM subsection president for Tyo ville who was collecting the signatures told The Herald that a delegation of CPDM militants from Bafoussam will be present at the burial of the hero.
Elsewhere, the association of supporters of Geremi Njitap based in Bafoussam on Friday organised a march in the streets to sympathise with Foe’s family. They carried placards on which one could read : “We are full of memories of the fallen footballer, Marc- Vivien Foe”. “He was Cameroon’s champion. He defended Cameroon’s interest with our brother Njitap”. “We feel proud that Foe proved patriotism to Cameroon”.
In drinking spots, markets, homes and offices, the talk of the day has been Foe’s sudden and tragic death.
