First and foremost, let’s start by defining who a blogger is. According to wikipedia.com a blogger is someone who writes blogs posts for a blog. A blog can be described as an online journal or diary. Nowadays, it’s definition has been spiced up to mean a new form of online journalism. That’s wikipedia for you.
It’s not a thing of today when you hear the popular saying ”A prophet is never welcomed in his home town This is the exact manner is which some Cameroonians react when they hear about bloggers. To them, Cameroon has no blogger yet. After reading the definition of blogger I wonder how they interpreted it. To them, a blogger is any idle someone with a laptop, cheap phones and data connection for CFA1000. From such description one can easily measure the IQ of many Cameroonians.
Why will Cameroonians think that there are no bloggers in Cameroon yet? Do bloggers need an extra body part to come into existence? Do they need mystical powers? Why is it hard for some of you guys to accept, respect and appreciate a group of people trying their very best to uplift the entertainment industry?
This year’s Easter season, controversies between Artiste Ambe of RedEye Entertainment versus bloggers almost interrupted Christ’s resurrection as the singer went tĂȘte a tĂȘte with some Camer bloggers. Although the feud between both parties seems to be dying down. A good number of artistes, producers and video directors seem to recognize the role of bloggers in the industry. Mind you, the higher population saying Cameroon doesn’t have bloggers are a group of people who don’t even hire services of bloggers.
Below are screenshots of some Camer acts recognizing bloggers.

Stanley Enow on twitter asking God to bless bloggers all over the world.

From the above screenshots coming from persons who know and have felt the impact of bloggers in their careers, do you still stand on your point that Camer has no bloggers?

this post got me gagging… Very resourceful… Thank you!!
Food for thought
Cameroon has bloggers. the sad story is that people are not even informed or lack the simple knowledge to do proper research about some basic things. Some Cameroonians still have shallow minds when it comes to certain issues. When a human limits his sphere of thinking so those he limits his knowledge about things. Some artist may just concentrate on making music but will not know how they get the huge exposure.
My take bloggers in Cameroon have done a mighty underground work and it’s pathetic to see them underrated. it’s not easy to blog and most difficult to be consistent with that job.
#A lot of misinformation
We do have bloggers but the question is why are all the blogs base on entertainment. There are places of focus like health, sports, agriculture. not just entertainment and the entertainment is based on one major topic music
Thanks for making it clear to those who don’t know we have bloggers and those who don’t see wat we are doing everyday to make sure we all get to the top.
Cameroon have bloggers….237 showbiz is on the right track…cameroonian bloggers just need for seriousness and consistency. In cameroon some people don’t feel the need to hire the services of bloggers because the feel with the help of family and friends they can make their stuff go viral.

Which to an extend is true cuz camer bloggers haven’t invested in thier blogs yet…blogging is a business and need hugh investment which camer bloggers are not doing.
Hello there! Well written post. I think what lags the blogosphere of Cameroon is financial difficulties, Since many Cameroonian bloggers are limited to (sub-domains).
The tech bloggers are the best bloggers but they seem to have more foreign audience . Most of them like Anfu Ransom, Enstine Muki and some others don’t like getting out to public. The last time they talked to us at the Bloggers forum(Check Vox Africa ) in Douala and i stepped up my blogging career.
Why will people with talents like to stay so quiet?
Well said the issue with some of us Cameroonians is we dont believe in each other and we dont even motivate those doing the stuff we can not do. To all Cameroon bloggers job well done the good news is you guys encourage up coming bloggers. Keep it up am joining you soon.
Cameroon has great bloggers of all domain at times we just feel neglected though many of them put in their best to make themselves known..
now have you have of the Iyunadeblog gush they are serving it hot hot with real entertainment. It should be given a medal for such an entertainment it gives to people.
Enstinemuki.com is another good blogger who is based on business
search them,get in touch with them and thank me later
I Love Cameroon
