The infamous Patrice Nouma confronts a Ruthless Cameroon Mission’s  Treasurer, Kinge Nganje Monono, in Court

"The criminal case was dropped by Mr. Monono because Mr. Nouma does not have any liquidity nor equity (meaning, Mr. Nouma is a poor man) that he could have gone after." JWN


Dear fellow Cameroonians,
ByJackson W. Nanje
Like anyone of you out there, I watched the numerous videos that Patrice Nouma put out on YouTube about the alleged misuse and misappropriation of funds at the Cameroon Mission by the Treasurer, Kinge Monono, and I was very troubled. Troubled that, if these accusations were true, then, Mr. Kinge Nganje Monono deserves to rot in prison. I also concluded that, this Monono fellow is a bad dude. But like any good investigator would do, “verify to believe.” So, it was because of my curiosity that I dispatched the investigators of Nanje School of Creative Thinking to search for the truth. At the end of our investigations we found out that, Mr. Patrice Nouma  (1) is not a truthful man to rely on (2) he had a troubled swindling past (3) that he falsely acquired information that he had no authority over with the aide of a bank accomplice (4) he falsely defamed the Cameroon Mission Treasurer (5) his vicious act caused a breach of trust by the bank (6) he brought negligence charges against the bank even though the charge was dropped later because of the dithering act by the ambassador of the Cameroon Mission, who let the statute of limitations to expire, amongst other charges.


Finally, Patrice Nouma’s lies are beginning to catch up with him. Who is Patrice Nouma and why has he received such enormous notoriety in our community? Has anyone ever thought of subjecting what he puts out in the form of YouTube videos for consumption to any form of scrutiny? That is the journey we want to embark on in this write up. But before we indulge you to read this write-up about how Nouma was brought to submission by Cameroon Mission’s Treasurer, Kinge Nganje Monono in a New Jersey court, we want to oblige you to watch this video impugning his character  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CM4vo2LwsuM&t=35s which has not been disputed by him or asked YouTube retract it.


The investigators of Nanje School of Creative Thinking know too well of flamboyant and great communicators like Patrice Nouma, who have a very dark side. They equally understand that Nouma is a very patriotic Cameroonian who will give up everything to risk his life for good of his country like he portrayed in this video in which he lamented at the dilapidated state of the Cameroon Embassy in Washington D.C   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRqgxflprAM We cannot however be lust/lost in his patriotic heroism, to ignore some of his misrepresentations, imperfections and criminal acts on others. And, we cannot also discount the numerous stories told in the first video above as merely an attempt to dent his character. There are numerous verifiable true stories whereby Nouma has been found engaged in deceptive acts in the past. For example, when he told the receptive Cameroon public in 2010 (that’s willing to believe anything that focuses on attacking the CPDM-led government) that Monono was writing checks to Cameroonians indiscriminately during the President’s visit in New York for the United Nation’s Annual General Assembly.  


The reason for this write up however, is to emphasize on the exoneration of the Cameroon Mission’s Treasurer, Kinge Nganje Monono, who sued

The judge rendered a judgment in favor of Cameroon Mission and Monono. What caused the Cameroon Mission Treasurer to drag Mr. Patrice Nouma and the PNC bank to court?
To begin, we want to explain to our readership how the Cameroon Mission functions during the President’s annual visits to New York in September and how Patrice Nouma’s lack of understanding of this process might have led him to misinform his viewers. Before the President travels to New York, a budget of his visit is submitted by the Ministry of Finance to Parliament. That budget is scrutinized during a debate after which, an authorization is given by parliament to the Finance Ministry to disburse that approved sum to the Treasurer of the Cameroon Mission in New York who happens to be Kinge Monono. The Treasurer executes this approved sum as designated by his boss in Yaoundé. For Nouma to subject Monono’s competency for a process he knows nothing about is an example where education has gone acidic. This lack of understanding of Parliamentary Process and Procedure and budgetary allocation is a serious obstacle confronting Nouma. The second issue confronting the inquisitor is criminal in nature. How did Nouma obtain the returned checks written by the Cameroon Mission Treasurer? Could he have passed through the Mission’s ambassador? Did the PNC bank violate its fiduciary (trust) responsibility? Was there an accomplice working for the bank who could have illegally given these checks to Mr. Nouma? These are the questions upon which shall be answered.
It is important for the public to know that the Treasurer of the Cameroon Mission is the only authorized signatory to the Cameroon Mission’s bank account. It is not if this is the case, it is the case. Now that we have established this to be the case let us ask the following questions:
a.    How then did Mr. Nouma get those numerous returned checks that the Treasurer had written to the approved individuals which he brandished on his YouTube videos? We know that his end game was to embarrass the Treasurer nonetheless, by exposing these returned checks to the public.
b.    Since the returned Checks were given to Nouma who has no relational relationship with the Cameroon Mission by an employee of the PNC bank, a branch on 4749 Sangamore Road, Bethesda Maryland. Who could be that employee and what could have been his/her motive?
c.     The other question points directly to the Cameroon Mission’s ambassador, Tommo Monthe. How come checks written to him by the Treasurer to pay out certain invited groups were not included in the videos brandished by Nouma even as we are aware that Nouma had met with him privately to discuss the Treasurer’s bank related activities oblivious of the fact that those activities were sanctioned by Cameroon government and Monono was just the executioner?
d.    When Ambassador Tommo Monthe summoned the Treasurer to discuss Nouma’s submissions to him, why was he complacent about the Treasurer’s request to provide the checks that Nouma had given him? Why did he refuse to write an authorization letter that the bank had requested of the Treasurer to get the information that he needed to pursue the perpetrators?
e.    And even when the Treasurer informed the Minister of Finance of the breach of trust by the bank and ordered the ambassador to write a letter that would enable the Treasurer to pursue the culprits as requested by the bank, why did the ambassador ignore to write the letter?
f.     Could it have been also that the Treasurer’s secretaries were the ones feeding Nouma with the information to destroy or blackmail him?
g.    Was the ambassador aiding and abating Nouma to destroy the Treasurer?
h.    What was the purpose of pursuing the Treasurer who was merely executing his duty as Chief Financial Officer at the Cameroon Mission?
These are a few of the questions that the investigators of Nanje School of Creative Thinking must unravel, to get to the truth about Nouma’s inconsequential escapades. This report is a product of a long interview we had with Kinge Monono and we also used the court transcripts (which are public documents), to determine the opinion of Patrice Nouma and the PNC bank rather than speaking to them directly. The court transcripts shall show word verbatim what Nouma told the judge as his utterances are accurately transcribed by the Court Registrar. And because we have a duty to accurately report our findings to our readership, we have attached these documents as part of this report. But for now, let us attempt to trace the genesis of Nouma’s beef with the Treasurer.
Cameroon Mission
Ambassador, Tommo Monthe
In 2010, in his attempt to impress his viewership and shame Monono and the Cameroon government, Nouma who lives in New York, traveled across the neighboring state (Bethesda, Maryland), to pay and obtain Cameroon Mission’s returned checks from a PNC bank employee, Henriette Akamba Akono, a Cameroonian-born, who has since been fired by the bank for a breach of trust. These checks, illegally obtained, were foolishly brandished on his YouTube channel and the content for which those checks were written to the respective recipients misrepresented by Nouma. His goal here was to defame Kinge Monono and to shame the Cameroon government. And the reason why this case has dragged on for seven (7) years is because of administrative delays by the ambassador, His Excellency Tommo Monthe. The ambassador, for some strange reason, completely refused to provide Monono a letter which PNC bank had requested of him before they could disclose the identity of Nouma’s fugitive accomplice who had provided him copies of the Mission’s returned checks, which is clearly a criminal offense. Why did the ambassador refuse to provide an mere authorization letter to the only authorized signatory to the Mission’s account? Remember that the Cameroon Mission’s ambassador is the boss of the Cameroon Mission who supervises the Treasurer’s activities as well.
After the Cameroon Mission Treasurer uncovered that someone order than him had requested information from the PNC bank Maryland branch, he traveled to Maryland to get more information from the bank manager of the branch. It was upon his arrival at the bank that he was told to present an authorization from the Cameroon Mission ambassador before accessing records at that branch. After establishing that a breach of trust by the bank had occurred, his lawyer had advised him---that---the bank will be sued for negligence. But first, the letter from the ambassador was a precursor to establishing a negligence lawsuit. The Treasurer excitingly drove back to New York to get the letter from the ambassador, but he resisted to furnish him with the letter. Why did the ambassador not provide the Treasurer the letter upon request? The Treasurer then reported the issue to the Minister of Finance who ordered the ambassador to issue the letter to enable the Treasurer to pursue those who were involved in enabling the transaction. Yet

again, he accepted the minister’s request but still resisted issuing the letter. The negligence and breach of trust by the PNC bank started in 2010 and the statute of limitations to sue for negligence is four (4) years in New Jersey. It was only in 2017 that the ambassador issued the letter to the Treasurer to take to the bank, three (3) years after the expiration of the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations (it’s the moment at which the plaintiff has a basis to sue) to sue for negligence had expired and the fugitive bank employee, Henriette Akamba Akono, had been fired by the bank. This begs the question: was Ambassador Tommo an accomplice to the scheme to bring down the impeccable Cameroon Mission Treasurer? Or was he stalling to prevent a lawsuit against his very good friend, Patrice Nouma? Even as there is so much that could be inferred from the ambassador’s obstructionist act, the investigators of Nanje School of Creative Thinking believe that there is some degree of collusion (conspiracy) between Ambassador Tommo and Nouma against the Treasurer.

Patrice Nouma
the Treasurer went forward with the lawsuit against the PNC bank and Patrice Nouma. The issue in contention here is, how did Patrice Nouma gain access to the state’s account when he was not a state employee and why did the bank grant him access when it is clearly stated that only Kinge Monono had access to the account? Clearly, the PNC bank, where the Treasurer opened the account in New Jersey had established that, the checks were given to Patrice Nouma by an employee whose name they could not reveal at that bank branch. He traveled to Maryland in his attempt to unmask who was behind the fraudulent activity. Mr. Patrice Nouma got the name of Cameroon Mission’s bank account presumably from his friend, the ambassador or from her fugitive bank friend, Henriette Akono. It was Ms. Akono who embarked on the criminal act, clearly in violation of the bank’s internal policies, to access the Mission’s account which she provided to Patrice Nouma with the returned checks.
We have now established that, it is because Patrice Nouma illegally and fraudulently obtained information from the bank that caused the Treasurer to sue him in court. And judgement was rendered against Patrice Nouma in favor of Kinge Nganje Monono. This judgement against Patrice Nouma is the first, and I am sure they could be many more but nobody before Mr. Monono has ever dragged him in court. As part of the judgement, Mr. Monono accepted a plea bargain suggested by Mr. Nouma’s attorney which was, to remove all the YouTube untruthful videos against Mr. Monono. The criminal case was dropped by Mr. Monono because Mr. Nouma does not have any liquidity nor equity (meaning, Mr. Nouma is a poor man) that he could have gone after. The lawsuit has not ended with Mr. Nouma’s plea bargain; the Cameroon Mission Treasurer still has another day in court with the bank, which he is suing for a breach of trust because of the malicious act of its  employee who coerced into giving out private information to an unauthorized individual, Mr. Patrice Nouma.
