ENTREPRENEUR YONG FRANCIS TOPS THE CHARTS
Yong Sports Academy (YOSA) based in Bamenda, regional headquarters of the North West, has won this year`s edition of the Cup of Cameroon Football championship. YOSA played a draw game with Canon of Yaounde after which it edged out Canon by two goals to nil in a penalty shootout. The match was played today in Yaounde in the presence of the President of the Republic, Paul Biya.
This latest achievement is only one in a series that the promoter of YOSA, Yong Francis, has to his credit. He is currently one of the biggest promoters of private education in Cameroon. He started off with a typing institute in the 1970s , called `Progressive`. Later on he opened a secondary school, Progressive Comprehensive High School (PCHS) in Bamenda, which is the most populous and one of the most popular in the North West Region. He also runs a High School in Bambui and another in his native Bello Division. However, his biggest flagship is probably the National Polytechnic which has stood the test of time and is an unmistakable educational reference in the whole of Cameroon. Yong is equally a former First Division referee.
Despite this long honors’ list, Yong still finds time to sit down and play the game of draughts with those with whom he has lived in Bamenda for decades.
Maybe if Cameroon were another country, Yong Francis would have been honoured for the milestone he has achieved in the field of education. A university could have awarded him an honorary doctoral degree. Or is it so difficult for a prophet to be accepted in his own country?
