In this profound special edition of Geopolitics with Ghost, General Steven Kwast joins Ghost to expose how Africa's hero system was dismantled and what it will take to restore it. Drawing from his upbringing in Cameroon and deep military and academic experience, Kwast examines the collapse of sovereign leadership in places like Burkina Faso, highlighting how revolutionary leaders like Thomas Sankara were undermined by globalist interests and replaced by foreign-aligned regimes. General Kwast introduces his “Hero System” theory, which argues that a functioning society must inspire its youth to stay, serve, and thrive. He outlines how U.S. military programs, though well-intentioned, often inadvertently train future coup leaders, and how a lack of cultural understanding at the highest levels of American policy leads to failure abroad. The conversation spans technology-based solutions like atmospheric water generation, the role of culture in sustainable leadership, and how tribal traditions hold the keys to rebuilding trust and purpose. With insights into oral history, spiritual leadership, and geopolitical missteps, this episode is a blueprint for how America, and humanity, can help rebuild sovereign civilizations by respecting their unique cultural roots and restoring the path to authentic leadership.

This weekend legendary drag performer BeBe Zahara Benet will headline a show at the Capri Theater in north Minneapolis. Marshall Ngwa first took the stage as BeBe at a pride party in 2000, dancing alongside Cyndi Lauper. That was shortly after he moved to Minneapolis from Cameroon. A few years later, BeBe competed in the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race and won the title of “America's Next Drag Superstar.” The reality TV show has exploded in popularity since then. It brought more eyes to the art of drag, which LGBTQ+ people and allies have used to challenge gender norms and celebrate authentic self-expression for more than 100 years. Meanwhile, BeBe has continued to perform and release original music, with a home base in Minneapolis. BeBe joins MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about his career and upcoming show.

Oriole Resources PLC (AIM:ORR) CEO Martin Rosser talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest drilling results from the Mbe South target. Rosser explained that hole 12, the focus of the announcement, intersected significant gold mineralisation, starting from just 2.4 metres below the surface. He noted, "It includes an excellent 21.3 metres at 1.61 grams per tonne gold." Further high-grade intercepts were also reported, such as 2.5 metres at 10.31 grams per tonne gold. Rosser added that subsurface mineralisation now extends over a strike length of at least 200 metres, a width of up to 400 metres, and to a vertical depth of at least 290 metres. Importantly, the mineralised system remains open in all directions and at depth. The maiden drilling program is now almost 70% complete, with 15 holes drilled. Results for hole 13 are anticipated by late this quarter or early Q3. Rosser stated that once received, an independent consultant will prepare a JORC exploration target estimate in Q3, offering guidance on the resource potential. A maiden pit-contained JORC code mineral resource estimate is also expected in Q4. Rosser also reminded shareholders of the company's AGM scheduled for Wednesday, 25th June.

Today, we highlight Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Glorious Lord in the Church around the world. Thank you all for listening. We are looking at the earthly conversations Jesus had, as recorded in the gospels, to see if we are able to glean anything useful for our prayer lives. Our latest segment comes from John chapter 2 and the wedding party at Cana. We find not only is He the God of the impossible, but He can accomplish multiple things through one prayer.The prayer of Mary, "They have no wine." Began a miracle, at least 180 gallons of good wine. Although the miracle was a "quiet one," it accomplished all Mary had prayed, but it set the beginning of the evangelist team God would use to turn the world upside down. "This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11Our So What?When we cast our prayers to the heart of our God, we scarce know how those prayers may be used in the plan of the Almighty. Therefore, we heed then the exhortations of E.M. Bounds and the apostle Paul:"Nothing is well done without prayer for the simple reason that it leaves God out of the account." " Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31Brethren, let's pray for one another. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Cameroon sits on top of a new list of most neglected displacement crises in the world. In this episode, we turn our attention to the annual report that accounts for this neglect, led by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). We'll discuss what those primary crises are and how they've been neglected politically, economically, and by the press. We're joined to discuss the report and its findings by Laila Matar, the Communications Director of NRC, an independent humanitarian aid organization working to help people fleeing war and persecution.

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Teri Allendorf, Executive Director of Community Conservation, to explore the transformative impact of community-led conservation. Dr. Allendorf brings over three decades of experience working at the intersection of biodiversity and local communities, with groundbreaking work in Nepal, India, Myanmar, Cameroon, China, and Belize. This conversation delves deep into how grassroots environmental initiatives and community-driven conservation projects are reshaping the future of wildlife protection and biodiversity conservation across the globe.Dr. Allendorf shares inspiring conservation success stories, including the remarkable revival of golden langur habitats in Assam's Kakarvijana Reserve Forest, tiger conservation in Nepal, and community forestry in Cameroon where gorilla habitats are protected through local action. We also revisit the origin of the now-celebrated Community Baboon Sanctuary in Belize, a pioneering project that catalyzed the global movement toward local wildlife protection and participatory conservation.The conversation highlights how biodiversity preservation efforts can only scale effectively when communities are seen not merely as beneficiaries but as agents of change. Community Conservation Inc. follows a unique nine-stage participatory model where local values and leadership define conservation priorities. This approach ensures that environmental protection is deeply embedded within the social and cultural fabric of the regions involved, linking cultural heritage and conservation in meaningful and lasting ways.We examine how gender inclusion plays a vital role in strengthening conservation outcomes. Dr. Allendorf shares her field experiences showing that when women are provided with the tools and knowledge—such as camera trapping techniques—they become powerful contributors to biodiversity management and local stewardship. The importance of engaging youth in conservation also takes center stage, as seen in programs like the summer camps and educational outreach hosted by women-led boards in Belize.The episode also confronts key challenges, such as the loss of community management when successful areas are turned into national parks, and how unsupportive or inconsistent government policies can stifle community momentum. Yet through it all, stories like the recovery of degraded forests in Assam and the rise of ecotourism and conservation in Belize show that community-based efforts can be both resilient and scalable.Listeners will gain insight into how sustainable community practices not only protect ecosystems but also enhance livelihoods, empower women, and strengthen governance. Dr. Allendorf emphasizes that effective conservation is polycentric—it thrives through collaboration among local communities, NGOs, scientists, and policymakers.Whether you're a conservation professional, a student, or someone passionate about wildlife and the environment, this episode offers a compelling look into how community-led biodiversity conservation is one of the most effective strategies for our planet's future. Discover how ordinary people—villagers, mothers, youth, and elders—are becoming extraordinary stewards of our planet's natural heritage.

In this episode, Nathan and Cameroon dive deep into the rising tide of AI in theological education, especially its implications for seminaries, spiritual formation, and the future of pastoral training.

Join as they explore the irreplaceable value of embodied ministry, human mentorship, and habitual wisdom in the digital age. Is AI a tool, a threat, or a catalyst for rethinking how we form Christian leaders? Listen for robust theological dialogue, real-world applications, and a hopeful vision for a hybrid future.

I sit down with Walters Nkemfack, a proud Cameroonian-Australian father, cultural educator, and social justice advocate living on Kabi Kabi Country. Walters shares his deeply personal journey from Cameroon to Germany and finally to the Sunshine Coast—where the racism his young son experienced in kindergarten sparked a lifelong commitment to community-building and anti-racism work. From his grassroots “leaf experiment” in a classroom to becoming an ambassador for the Shine a Light on Racism campaign, Walters’ story is a testament to turning pain into purpose. He talks candidly about the realities of systemic discrimination in workplaces and schools, the exhaustion of starting over in each new setting, and the courage it takes to speak out when silence feels safer. This yarn is a reminder that inclusion is more than diversity—it’s about creating spaces where everyone feels like they truly belong.

In this eye-opening episode of Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski is joined by Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley from the Human Architecture and Planning Institute (HAPI.org) to explore the fascinating intersection of architecture, biology, and human emotion. Ann and Kelsey reveal how our brains are hardwired to respond to certain visual cues—like faces, fractals, and even the color red—and how this understanding can revolutionize the way we design buildings and cities. From eye-tracking software that predicts where people look first, to how blank facades might make us feel uneasy, this episode unveils the science behind why some spaces feel better than others. Tune in to discover how embracing our biological instincts can lead to more humane, joyful, and walkable environments.More About Ann Sussman and Kelsey BradleyAnn Sussman, RA, an architect, researcher, and teacher is passionate about understanding how buildings impact us.

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. After moving back to Kenya for my senior year, I was flying home for a break. Without a direct flight between the island and Nairobi, I stopped in Cameroon on my way. Landing in Douala, the port city close to Malabo, I heard from a friend that a well-known author was in Yaoundé leading a spiritual emphasis week for the group of Bible translators I'd lived with the year before. I'd recently devoured his book on God's missionary call for His people and wanted to meet with him, speak with him. My young mind wanted to see if talking with him might help me connect some dots still at odds with what he'd written. I changed my travel plans and jumped on a bus heading south. Although the event was already underway, I could at least catch the last day of his presentations. Halfway in the journey, however, the ancient and bent-up bus decided it had different plans. It broke down. And when I say it broke down, I don't mean it sputtered or had a momentary lapse. I mean it ceased to be a bus. It gave up the automotive ghost. We had to wait for another bus to come to our rescue. Hours later, now on a new bus, revving with vim and vigor, we continued on our way. I remember at last emerging from the tropical canopy grown over the highway revealing the red rolling hills of Yaoundé. I recognized the roads and quickly made my way to the church where the author was speaking. But because of the bus breakdown, I arrived during the last few minutes of his lectures. Crestfallen, I waited until most had left, hoping to say hello and be on my way. To my surprise, he made time for me. What began as a short greeting became a dialogue. We traded questions and theological perspectives. We moved beyond the surface of doctrinal etiquette into personal applications in our lives. We marveled together as Jesus revealed to us God's sovereignty in the midst of our humanity. We were two disciples on an African road to Emmaus receiving Christ's prophetic hope.

The Trump administration has announced plans to end temporary protected status for people from countries including Afghanistan, Cameroon, Venezuela, and Ukraine as part of a broader strategy to limit immigration. The administration also put a halt on refugee resettlement programs, but made an exception for white South Africans who officials said were facing persecution in their home country. Critics have denounced Trump's decision to welcome South Africans while leaving close to 8,000 Afghans, many of whom assisted the United States during the war there, vulnerable to deportation and death if they return home. We talk about our nation's immigration policies and what it means for the Bay Area's Afghan community.

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. I boarded the little Cessna on the hot tarmac of the Yaoundé international airport. I had just received the grace of the customs and border patrol I surely didn't deserve. I'd been an illegal alien in Cameroon for several months, assuming—as most naïve teenagers are wont to do—the school would keep my papers in order. After a few hours, however, the man behind the desk forgave me. He wiped away my debt and stamped my passport, releasing me. He didn't even block me from renewing my visa to finish my junior year of high school. Remarkably, the plane waited for me. The other passengers waited patiently. The pilot watched the clock but refused to leave until the last possible minute. Once I was released, I joined them as the propellor kicked to life and the wheels began to roll. As everyone else, including the pilot, were more than ready to go, there was only one seat left: the co-pilot's chair. As the little plane took off, climbing into the sky, I gained a vantage point I'd never experienced before. I've flown in countless planes. I've even been in the cockpit of several planes over the years. But never had I faced the oncoming skies from the front row! The view before me wasn't a sideways glance oval. It was a panorama sweeping across my full field of vision! And that is where the trouble began. As we flew toward the clouds, the logical part of my brain said, “Nothing to worry about here. Clouds are just coalescing drops of water gliding around the atmosphere,” but my less logical side—the I've-watched-too-many-Wile-E-Coyote-cartoons side—was sounding off alarm bells! I asked the pilot through the headset if we should be concerned. He wasn't worried at all. He'd flown headlong into clouds before. I'll be honest. I heard him but I still struggled to really believe his testimony! I was like Cleopas on the road to Emmaus, having heard the witness of the women and the apostles, but still struggling to discern what it all meant. We've all been there. We'll all be there again. The question becomes: will we keep moving?

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. After a few weeks home, it was time to fly back to Cameroon. With a new visa in my passport and a new semester ahead, I was ready to get back to work. I also had a new lease on the days ahead of me. I didn't want to miss “why” I was in Yaoundé. We all have reasons. I realized I need to reshuffle mine. Some reasons we know. They're written in billboard sized letters. Other reasons we think we know, but they ultimately have little real purpose in our lives. They sound good but are written in invisible ink. And, of course, there are other reasons we are largely unaware of. They are the small print, hidden under a footnote, found only in an appendix. These reasons are small but can have a massive impact on how we live. Living in Yaoundé before my visa fiasco, I was just living day by day, school assignment by school assignment. I walked and taxied in and out of places without really being present. Knowing that I was in Cameroon for a reason, not just to finish eleventh grade, I wanted to live my faith intentionally with renewed vision. I began to see things that were too easily missed; like Lahadi. Lahadi was a guard at a gate. I greeted him every day as I passed by. He worked for the Bible translators I was living with, but he himself didn't know Jesus. As we talked—really talked—I wanted to share with him something in my life that'd been lost in the footnotes. I went and bought him a Bible as a gift. I started to learn a little Hausa. At first, it was just a handful of greetings, to show him how much I cared about him, that I would attempt to speak his language; but as we talked more about Jesus, I began searching for the meaningful words of faith so we could anchor this vision of the Messiah in Lahadi's heart language. Walking with Lahadi, I wanted Jesus to join our conversation. Friends, this is exactly what Jesus does! He meets us on our roads to Emmaus. He asks us questions, listens to our answers, and answers us from within His revelation. He speaks His heavenly truth in our earthly languages! He translates glimpses of His eternal glory into the red clay roads of our lives.  This week, take a walk with someone. Let's find Jesus on our way to Emmaus.

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Back in 1999, I found myself in hot water. As a high school junior, I was living in Cameroon, going to school in Yaoundé. For most of my schooling years I'd benefited from the meticulous care and attention of a much larger academy in Kenya. That year, however, I attended a much smaller school, closer to home. Everything seemed fine until I went to fly home for break. That was when I discovered, much to my surprise, my visa was long expired! Where the other school worked to keep all the student visas in order, this smaller academy did not. I found myself detained, penniless, and wondering how I was going to talk myself out of the country!  There was a Cessna on the airfield waiting for me, a flight plan scheduled to leave, but I was being held in a back office, presented with a fine I couldn't possibly pay and threatened with worse. My hope of a school break began to fade from view. I barely had enough for the taxi to the airport! Seriously, where was I supposed to get the kind of money they were demanding? I did everything I could. I went through all the mental gymnastics I could, looking for ways to appease their justifiable frustration. At the end of the day though, the decision didn't rest with me. It wasn't in my apology. It wasn't in my efforts. It ultimately wasn't what I said or did that would determine my fate; that decision rested with the man behind the desk listening. After a few hours, he did something unexpected. He gave me mercy. He forgave my debt. He forgave my expired visa. He didn't even hold it against my re-entry a few weeks later to finish the school year. I learned several things that day. One is that some of the best learning doesn't happen in the classroom or in a books. It happens in the friction of life that calls forth everything we know and exposes the things we don't. Sometimes the best classroom is a dusty road where we wrestle out our biggest questions with a friend. It's together in the unexpected journey we can become eyewitnesses to hope.

Through the impassioned words of a young African, she unpacks the burning desire for unity and self-determination that is surging through the continent's veins. This isn't a nostalgic look back, but a vibrant connection to the unfinished work of pan-African giants like Kwame Nkrumah, the revolutionary spirit of Thomas Sankara, the unwavering conviction of Patrice Lumumba, and the enduring legacy of Nelson Mandela. Their sacrifices, Lira powerfully argues, were seeds planted for this very moment – a moment where the youth are rising to claim their inheritance.With palpable excitement, Lira dissects the profound mindset shift that is reshaping the African landscape. She celebrates the growing consciousness and unwavering determination of young Africans to not just envision, but actively build a better future, free from the shackles of external influence and internal stagnation. This episode is a clarion call, urging the youth to tap into their inherent power, reclaim their resources, and forge a united front towards a prosperous and self-reliant Africa – a continent where pride and progress go hand in hand. The conversation fearlessly confronts the lingering vestiges of neocolonialism and underscores the critical importance of rewriting African narratives from an African perspective.Turning her attention directly to the critical juncture facing Cameroon, Lira speaks with urgency about the upcoming 2025 elections. She underscores the undeniable link between genuine change, tangible development, and a fundamental shift in leadership. This isn't just about casting a vote; it's about seizing an opportunity to redefine the nation's trajectory. Lira paints a compelling vision of a revitalized Cameroon – a nation where education flourishes, clean water flows freely, accessible healthcare is a right, not a privilege, and the nation's immense wealth serves its people. Through a personal anecdote, she poignantly captures the growing awareness and fervent desire for transformation among young Cameroonians, emphasizing that this is their Kairos moment.Beyond the immediate political horizon, Lira delivers a powerful and deeply personal message of self-belief and resilience to every young African listener.
