The grapevine has it that when Achidi Achu was appointed PM, a delegation of 10 NW Fons came to congratulate him and he gave them FCFA 20 million (2million each). After Yang was appointed, the same delegation came and after spending two weeks in Yaounde before being granted audience, during which Yang gave them 2 million (200,000 frs each).

On their way back to Bamenda, they stopped at Santa to report what had happened to Achidi Achu. Pa Achidi was just coming from his farm, when he saw Pajeros driving in. He welcomed them and reportedly began by saying; he knows that when you see a frog running in broad daylight, then something must be chasing it, and then pretended as if he had fallen asleep as the Fons began recounting what transpired in Yde.

As if he had been stung by a bee, Pa woke up and expressed surprise and feigning his trademark anger, he asked rhetorically: "We be form dis thing na for chop; wunna say Yang don come for come spoil chop? Way Ebibi (Fru Ndi) dey for dat side di chop yi one; and even Muna wey yi don die; e pikin dem di chop for three side? (Ben-Opposition; Akere-TI; Ama-Minister of Culture); and then Yang want spoil chop? Then we go spoil chop for all man, becos we form dis thing na for chop"

So, it is all about chop! chop-ah-chop. Joseph Antoine Bell is like Yang Philemon; he will spoil chop; and nobody wants such a man to hold the keys to the kitchen where the chop is kept
