"Merely getting rid of Biya won't solve our problems," says Celestin Monga.

In this last part of his interview, Celestin Monga , who has always been known for political and economic writing, discusses the other forms of writing he is involved in, notably creative writing, travel diaries, among others. As a parting shot, he warns that merely getting rid of Biya won't cure Cameroon of its ills. It will take much more than just a change of guards at Etoudi. The system itself must be thoroughly over-hauled and changed before the Cameroonian people can start to breathe a sigh of relief after all these years of Biya's misrule.
