Focusing on Cameroon as a case study, this book explores the judiciary's role in Africa as a governmental branch, a federalism umpire, and a means to combat human rights abuses. It delves into the persistent issues of justice administration, arguing for a reevaluation of strategies rooted in colonial legacies. Through the tumbu-tumbu Long-Distance Government Theory, it advocates for a transformative mindset shift towards a truly independent judiciary. The content is particularly relevant for legal practitioners, social scientists, and political analysts.
