+200 Innocent Civilians Killed, 50 Villages Razed in Anglophone Cameroon(Ambazonia) since January 2024

While global attention even those of local diplomats in Yaounde have remained on the Israel-Palestinian War, the civil war in the Cameroons have continued unabated with the Biya administration enjoying the silent support of the White House thanks to Macron. Away from this attention, the 41-year-old regime in Yaounde has upped its brutality on the minority English-speaking people of the former British Southern Cameroons(Ambazonia) with more beheadings of innocent civilians, summary executions, razing of villages extortions and much more. From Mamfe to Nkambe, its been inferno in communities and littered corpses on streets and rivers. it should be recalled that the Trump Administration was harder on the French Cameroun state with actions such the suspension of its participation in AGOA and openly endorsed resolution initiatives by the Swiss.

A family Erased in Kumbo

11/04/2024

*Bamfen Quater-Squares, Kumbo LGA*

A whole family of four at Bamfen Quarters, opposite the Presbyterian Church were summarily executed at 2:00 AM, 11/04/2024 by La Republic du Cameroon terrorist forces of occupation and dumped at River Roongwev.

The father,Pa Oritoi, seen laying with short pants to the left on the above picture had his throat cut off before being dumped into the river, followed by two of his son’s, Nyundzeven Alain, and Tav Elvis. The first victim known as Smart  was killed at their home as he put up a fierce resistance when the terrorist forces surrounded the house at 2:00 AM and break open their door. The French Cameroun soldiers also burnt houses in the village of Sop.

Handicaps Killed in Bali

The images posted by the French Cameroun soldiers are self-explanatory. It affirms the fact that extinction of the minority Anglophones is the ultimate end goal of the the French Cameroun soldiers and authorities backed by France in its bid to extend its French colonial influence in Africa.

Killing my Father while Pretending to Love Us…

A few months back French Cameroun soldiers kidnapped the family of a freedom fighter – Aladji. According to the kids, their father was never a danger to their lives nor that of the community. April 4, 2024 the French Cameroun soldiers arrested the father and killed him in yet another brutal execution in the ongoing civil war. The crime of the father was trying to fight for equality for the minority English-speaking people of the Cameroons who are treated like 4th class citizens. A military truck was deliberately run over him and his throat slit. The images below are just a sneak peek of the painful execution of Aladji. The trauma to the man’s young kids is everlasting; having to see the military men forcefully pretending to love them while performing such brutal execution of their own father.

Biya Clocks 41 Years in Power with a Bloody Massacre in Mamfe, English-speaking Cameroon(Ambazonia).

Lackeys of the ruling CPDM political class in Cameroun, usually return to their places of birth since 1982 to heap praises on Paul Biya, – the day their messiah took over power from Cameroun’s first President Amahdou Ahidjo. With the civil war raging in the English-speaking section – Ambazonia, these celebrations have been banned by the de-facto government or resistant groups in the area. This year, Biya managed to remind the citizens resisting him that his brutality for the past years is still strong despite his own wobbling stamina.

The village of Mamfe woke up 6 November, 2023, to an indiscriminate fire on commercial buildings in one of the commercial streets of the depreciating town. Images on social media show the French Cameroun military watching the inferno as the citizens struggle to help their loved ones consumed by the fire. Early reports is pointing to about 50 people killed including children caught in their sleep. This is is not the first time that French Cameroun soldiers are torching homes in retaliation or hatred for communities that oppose the brutal colonial rule of French Cameroun. Reports by Chrada, a human rights organization based in the town of Buea, show that more than 650 villages have been burnt by the French Cameroun soldiers since 2016. The civil war is now in its 7th year. More than 55,000 people have been killed. More than 1.5 million are internally displace and more than 200,000 are stranded as refugees in Nigeria and Ghana.

The solution according to majority of the citizens of the Former British territory of Southern Cameroon, is outright separation from French Cameroun whom they voluntarily joined in 1961 as two independent countries.

Canada’s Foreign Ministry Fails to Condemn ISIS-Style Execution by its Partner for Peace in English-Cameroon(Ambazonia)

On the 20th of January, 2023, the world woke up to a release from the Canadian Global Affairs on Peace process in Cameroon. The communique by the ” Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Foreign Affairs,” outlines her own Ambazonian leaders that they have reached an agreement with for “peace process aimed at resolving the ongoing crisis in the North-West and South-West regions of Cameroon.” She equally enumerated the parties known to her:

“The parties to this agreement are the Republic of Cameroon, the Ambazonia Governing Council and the Ambazonia Defence Force(ADF), the African People’s Liberation Movement and the Southern Cameroons Defence Force(SOCADEF), the Interim Government(under Nkondengui prison tenant, Ayuk Tabe), and the Ambazonia Coalition Team (ACT). The parties further express the hope that other groups will join the process.’’ Read the full statement at http://ow.ly/WVuR50MwEgl

Canada’s hypocritical involvement in which it picked its own groups to discuss peace was seen by many Southern Cameroonians(Ambazonians), as a Yaounde coverup. Many observers remisces the same divide and conquer tactics in the Sudanese Civil War when Omar El- Bashir, announced his agreement with Riek Machar and the other South Sudanese rebel groups without the main group of Dr. John Garang, or a deal with Buthelezi for the end-of-Apartheid without the ANC. The Canadian release further xrays Canada’s ignorance of the main actors in the Ambazonia War of Independence.

Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mélanie Joly

Dissecting Canada’s Own Peace Partners

The Ambazonia Governing Council is owned by Dr. Ayaba Cho, while the atrocities of its defense unit – ADF, such as kidnappings for ransom, public executions etc are enormous, with Facebook designating them as a terrorist group, the Canadians also signed another agreement with this defense wing – Ambazonia Defense Forces(ADF). This is tantamount to De Klerk signing separate agreements with the ANC and The Spear of the Nation (ANC’s military wing). Same goes for the African People’s Liberation Movement of Dr. Akwanga and its military wing – the Southern Cameroons Defence Force (SOCADEF). Worth noting is that these two defense groups form less than 10% of the military fighting in the Ambazonia War of Independence.

The bulk of the military and humanitarian burden of the war is under the Ambazonia Restoration Forces (ARF), under the Ambazonia Interim government headed by Dr. Sako Ikome, who like Dr. John Garang was sidelined by the Canadians in their pursuit of peace in ” the NorthWest and South West parts of Cameroun.” as the Canadians called their peace initiative – a slap o the faces of genuine Ambazonians who rejected the Canada charade from the onset.

Nine Months after Canada’s Prairie Goosechase

As warned by Dr. Sako Ikome that the Canadian Process was dead on arrival because, there were no guarantors like the Swiss Process that French Cameroun withdrew from, nine months after the goosechase, nothing has happened as the civil war rages on. Following the conclusion of the said process and following a release from the Canadian Foreign Ministry, French Cameroun, quickly dismissed the so-called Canadian Peace Process, disputing Canada’s claim that she gave her blessing. Finding themselves under the bus, Canada and her handpicked and gullible partners for peace in the “Northwest and Southwest ” – Ayaba Cho, AKwanga, Yerima, Akuro and others who had secretly prided themselves as bosses of the Ambazonia struggle, find themselves struggling to convince even their own shadows of the blessing from Yaounde. Till date, neither Canada nor her partners have been able to present any formal agreement or authorization to engage in the process for any peace from French Cameroun. Even a list of a single member of Yaoundé’s delegation has not been made public, leading many to conclude that Canada and her partners for peace were merely goose chasers.

ISIS-Style Execution by Canada’s Partner and her Silence.

While killing of unarmed civilians in the civil war in Ambazonia have been predominantly carried out by the French Cameroun soldiers, the ADF of Dr. Ayaba Cho, has been unique in its own executions. These extra-judicial killings by the ADF, according to renowned web Journalist Michel Bien -Tong, is aimed at helping Yaounde, to portray the legitimate aspirations of Ambazonians as a mere terrorist bunch. Mr. Bien Tong in his numerous outings has firmly stated that the ADF-AGC, are French Cameroun proxy forces. In one of is latest posts, Mr. Bien Tong puts the public executions squarely on French Cameroun and the ADF Alliance. Read his post here:

With Canada, having “laboriously” ironed out an agreement for peace, one would have thought that zero tolerance to Atrocity crimes like what its partner the ADF did on the 4th of October, 2023, in the locality of Guzang, to unarmed civilians under their custody was part of the failed Canadian agreement.

The executions were condemned by rights groups including the Interim Government of Ambazonia, under Dr. Sako Ikome, who call ed on the global community to send a fact-finding mission to Ambazonia. So far Canada maintains sealed lips. Below is the graphic ISIS-style execution by the ADF, of Dr. Cho Ayaba, in the village of Guzang, 4th October, 2023. Warning: image is graphic.

How to Genuinely End the Genocide?

Canada, her allies and backer of French Cameroun know best what to do. The general sentiments among British Southern Cameroonians is the fact that Canada’s leadership is bent on aiding France and La Francophonie, extend their sphere of influence by erasing the English-speaking people of the British Southern Cameroons. The perfect person to do this for France is the current Canadian Foreign Minister, Melanie Joly, who had earlier served Canada as Minister of Languages and La Francophonie. She is also from French-speaking Quebec. The killings have been going on now for the 7th year and Canada has failed to sympathize with the minority English-speaking people who from the onset like Quebec wanted nothing other than to be treated as equals. The Canadians and their allies treated Ukrainians differently and sanctioned Putin after the invasion of Ukraine. They did same in the 90s after Saddam took over Koweit. They helped South Sudan and North Sudan to reach a peace deal after more than 25 years of war, the UK gave Scotland a vote about the their union with the UK. The UK herself organized a vote about Brexit. French Cameroun is supported and defended by Paris. They can end the Atrocity Crimes now by forcing Paul Biya and French Cameroun to commit to negotiations without pre-conditions. Without such economic pressure and threats of isolation, French Cameroun and France will continue to sleep-walk to any idea about independent mediators as the facts and logic of history are not on their side. Also the resources of the territory of Ambazonia are too important for them than human life .The genocide has claimed more than 45,000 lives, more than 600 villages burnt by the French Cameroun soldiers, now called occupational forces. Close to two million are internally and externally displaced. What Ambazonians want is a well-backed and independent mediator, who will begin by recognizing the equality of the two Trust Territories. This will involve engaging with the main leadership group led by Dr. Sako Ikome. Any oher attempts are bound to fail like the second Canadian retreat that just concluded on the 8th of October, 2023, still in Canada, who is increasingly acting like Khartoum during the Sudan Civil War.

15 Innocent People Executed in Bamenda, English-Cameroon, by French Cameroun Soldiers Aided by Macron and Biden

Amongst the executed include a newly-wed couple. The public execution of innocent civilians by the French Cameroun soldiers is a daily routine. Hardly a day goes by without dead bodies of innocent civilians extracted and executed by the French Cameroun soldiers at their Concentration Camps at the Bamenda airport, seen on streets and in bushes and rivers. This ethnic cleansing has been going on for more than 7 years with close to 50,000 now estimated to have been killed. more than 600 villages have equally been razed by the soldiers. The world has stood by as the genocide persists.

Same Denial Playbook

Like in previous massacres by the same French Cameroun appointed Governor to the english-speaking regions, their modus operandi is to deny the mass killings. It was the same script when they murdered more than 30 in Ngarbuh some three years ago. After months of propaganda and denial aided by bought media like the VOA reporter in Cameroun, they acknowledged the killings. Like Ngarbuh, Bali, Ekondo Titi, Santa etc, no organization nor government has held the regime to the basic human rights standards. For Details on some of the previous massacres, click here

Ngarbuh-style Massacre of +24 Civilians in Babanki Village, English-Cameroon, by French Cameroun Soldiers, backed by Paris & the White House

With the Civil War now in its 7th year, the Biden administration has visaed more killing of the English-speaking minority than his predecessor – Donald Trump. While Donald Trump, failed to resolve the conflict, he no doubt was hard on the Biya administration in Cameroun. Apart from his Ambassador – Henry Balerin, unequivocal about the direct “targeting of Anglophones” as he put it, Donald Trump, suspended military co-operation between Washington and Yaounde. He also suspended French Cameroun from AGOA benefits. While these actions and Trump’s firm call for negotiations by both sides without pre-conditions put the oligarchs in Yaounde and their backers at Elysee Palace, on the edge, the Biden Administration has practically done nothing. None of his broad diplomats and State Department officials have bothered about the ongoing killings and burning of villages by the French Cameroun soldiers. The Biden Administration has rather rolled out the red carpet to Paul Biya, in DC, undo and threatening to undo any actions by his predecessor to force Yaounde and Paris into resolving the civil war that has killed more than 46,000 people. Biden’s ambassador in Yaounde have not only been romancing with the two French-Cameroun appointed governors in the Anglophone regions responsible for these numerous massacres, but have failed even to defend the basic human rights of the minority English-speaking people.

While his focus in Africa has been to levy sanctions on authorities in Uganda for gay rights bill that prescribe death penalty, he has been unable to stop a genocide that has seen villages, more than the size of Connecticut destroyed and burnt by French Cameroun soldiers. Innocent civilians arrested in their homes are executed daily on streets in the Anglophone regions, some with alerts by family members to the US authorities in Yaounde, with no action to save their relatives. The Biya regime is in panic state and any threat by any diplomat relating to massacres is likely to yield fruits. For example this alert on this tweet was wilfully neglected and the next day the victims were not only waterboarded, tortured before execution, but military trucks were run over their bodies

The Big Babanki Massacre of 15 June, 2023

Before the massacre of at least 24 innocent civilians by the French Cameroun soldiers in a village called Big Babanki, numerous alerts on social media especially tweets have tagged these supposed defenders of global human rights, in Yaounde in vain. The result so far is 24 people earlier arrested by the French Cameroun soldiers being discovered in bushes, rivers, and other hidden places with devastating gun shots, mostly on their skulls. So far silence and disparage is the norm by the Biden Administration. These killings are happening to a minority population treated worst than the Jews in Hitler’s Germany. They have been called cockroaches, dogs, asked to abandon their ancestral land or be massacred with the perpetuators enjoying laughs with wines with US Diplomatic authorities in Yaounde. This is happening to a territory that the UN knows was ripe for independence as the UN Trusteeship Council mandated. The history of the British Southern Cameroons is clear. While conflicts like this in Europe have been resolved with plebiscites/votes and not war, that in the British Southern Cameroons have been ignored as the rich mineral deposits of the territory have been mortgaged by the French Cameroun authorities to the Western alliance members.

Below are some of the images of the massacre in Big Babanki, Northern Part of Anglophone Cameroon(Ambazonia)

CRIES OF 14-YEAR-OLDS BEING RAPED BY FRENCH CAMEROUN SOLDIERS, INFURIATE RESIDENCE OF BALIN-YONGA, ENGLISH-CAMEROON(AMBAZONIA)

In an appeal to diplomatic authorities in Yaounde and beyond, citizens of Bali Nyonga have appealed to the world to help end the abuses being inflicted by the French Cameroun colonial soldiers on the people of the County. In a release detailing the abuses, the Chairman of the County, Mr. Nji, enumerated the incidents of abuses ranging from rape to executions. Girls as young as 14 are carried forcefully by the gun-wielding French Cameroun soldiers into the bushes and their makeshift military camp at a nearby abandoned school. Families and neighbors, the communique details report desperate cries for help by the young women as the military engages in the abuses. Some who refuse or challenge the arrogant soldiers are shot and dumped. Such is the case of Adama, a young girl recently kidnapped in her sleep by the soldiers and after raping her, was shot and dumped by the roadside in a neighbourhood in Bamenda.

Below is the Full Communique from the Bali LGA

BALI NYONGA LGA DECRIES THE SYSTEMATIC RAPE AND TORTURE OF YOUTHS IN BALI NYONGA BY THE CAMEROONIAN MILITARY ====================== The Bali Nyonga LGA vehemently condemns and abhors the war crimes committed by the Cameroonian Military in Bali Nyonga within the past weeks and days. We have received at the level of the LGA, many horrific complaints from civilians within Bali Nyonga about the ongoing break-ins into homes and the arrests of women and young girls, some as young as 14 years old, by the Cameroonian Military stationed at Government School Bali town. Eyewitnesses and corroborated statements from friends and families of those arrested have painted a horrific picture of what is unfolding which involves the raping of some of the women and girls arrested. It is reported that as many as 30 soldiers sometimes take turns in raping the girls and women arrested, as confirmed by our investigative teams on the ground. There have been reports of screams, loud cries, and wailings coming from the Government School campus mostly at nighttime. We are told that girls as young as 14 and 15 years of age are among those rounded up and being raped and tortured. These actions by the Cameroonian Military appear, endorsed by the French Cameroun Military hierarchy as a way of humiliating and dehumanizing our vulnerable population, especially the youths, into submission and bondage.

Grand Mother Tortured by French Cameroun Soldiers in Bali Nyounga

This is not the first time that we have had reports of such dehumanizing practices of systematic rape and torture of women and young girls in Bali, however, it appears to be of a wider and more alarming scale this time around. The unusually heavy presence of the Cameroonian Military in Bali Nyonga, which is now estimated to be in the thousands, has stalled all daily activities in Bali Nyonga as the population is now living in complete fear and panic about going about their daily business and activities. We continue to demand that the Cameroonian Government should withdraw all its Military forces from Bali Nyonga as their presence there is causing tremendous pain and suffering to the population. (Con’t after images)

SOME IMAGES OF THE KILLINGS AND DESTRUCTION IN BALI NYONGA BY THE FRENCH CAMEROUN COLONIAL MILITARY

We, at the LGA, decry the use of women as sex toys by the Cameroonian Military and the indiscriminate arrests and torture of our vulnerable civilian population daily, and with complete impunity. The Cameroonian Military has continued to commit war crimes in Bali Nyonga in complicity and with tacit approval from the Cameroonian Government. We are therefore holding the Biya Government responsible for such heinous acts committed by the Cameroonian Military which constitute war crimes. We are calling on sons and daughters of Bali Nyonga both home and abroad to continue to raise the alarm about the war crimes being committed by the Cameroonian Military using any means possible including Twitter and other social media outlets. On the same note, we at the LGA express our regret for the selective outrage often conveyed by some Bali Nyonga elites ……………. silent when acts of Genocide and war crimes are being committed by the Cameroonian Military on the civilian population. We want to appreciate all those who have raised the alarm on this issue, and we continue to call on our civilian population to stay away from harm’s way and remain vigilant for the safety of their families and loved ones. We also ask that we put the people of Bali Nyonga in our thoughts and prayers during these difficult and challenging times. Together, and in unity, we will overcome these moments together as we remain resolute and steadfast until our homeland Is free for us and our future generations. Bah Davidson Nji, Chairman Bali Nyonga LGA

How Canada Failed Woefully in Playing Khartoum’s Role in the Six-year Civil War in British S.Cameroon(Ambazonia)

Though only in its 7th year, the ongoing civil war in the Cameroons, pitting the two former UN-Trust Territories (French Cameroon and British Southern Cameroons Ambazonia), bear striking resemblance to the second Sudanese Civil war that lasted from 1983- 2005, between the Central Sudanese Government and the Sudanese Peoples’ Liberation Army (SPLA) under Dr.John Garang. Throughout the conflict, Khartoum’s involvement was discernible through other factions that pretended to fight for the discriminated people of South Sudan, by multiplying their pains with Khartoum’s money and ammunition. Khartoum like Yaounde under Biya, temporarily succeeded in sowing discord amongst the South Sudanese liberation leaders, with its goal being to sideline Dr. John Garang, whose mission although cloudy at the start of the war later became an embodiment of hope for the South Sudanese people.

The Riek Machar’s of the Ambazonia War of Independence

IN Sudan: Machar was a rebel leader with the Sudan People’s Liberation Army/Movement (SPLM/A) headed by John Garang from 1984 until he fell out with Garang in 1991. (Like Chris Anu in the Ambazonia Civil War) in “August 1991 Riek Machar, Lam Akol and Gordon Kong announced that John Garang had been ejected from the SPLM. Their own faction called SPLA-Nasir accused Garang of ruling by force, in a “dictatorial reign of terror”;    As part of SPLA-Nasir, Mahar, was involved in 1991 Bor Massacre. The Southern Sudanese communities became more divided than ever before in their history. These organic divides among the Southern Sudanese communities were exacerbated by the deliberate “divide and rule” policies instituted by the regimes in Khartoum, in order to maintain their power over the Southern Sudanese peoples.” The same divide and rule by French Cameroun in sponsoring and assisting some of the groups that were present at the Canadian talks that were held in secrecy.

IN Ambazonia

Just like Riek Machar in the above quotes, Chris Anu, assumed the same role in the Ambazonia Struggle; Lying and faking evidences against the Interim government under Dr. Sako Ikome, who can be likened to Dr. John Garang of the Ambazonia Struggle. Dr. John Garang, like Dr. Sako Ikome believed that, “.. his troops’ courage came from “the conviction that we are fighting a just cause. That is something North Sudan and its people don’t have.” Rejected and cursed by the Pro-Khartoum groups in Sudan, like Dr, Sako Ikome, is being “blasphemed” in the Ambazonia civil war, both leaders were steadfast in their belief and commitment to the freedom for their people.

The Failed Canadian Mediation Attempt and Khartoum

With Khartoum and Yaounde believing that “divide and conquer” has succeeded in shelving John Garang, and Dr. Sako Ikome, the power-hungry Riek “Machar in 1996, signed a Political Charter and in 1997 the Khartoum Peace Agreement with the government of Sudan under Omar El-Bashir. Under this agreement, Riek Machar, was assistant to Omar el-Bashir, President of Sudan, and President of the Southern States Coordinating Council. He was also made commander in chief of the South Sudan Defense Force (SSDF), which included most of the ex-rebels who had signed the Khartoum agreement. “This was Khartoum’s desire to pick its own leader for the South Sudanese fighting for independence. All Dr. John Garang did was maintain his focus on the independence desire of the majority of South Sudanese people. The Khartoum attempt failed as Riek Machar later joined the SPLM.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mélanie Joly

Enter Canada in the Ambazonia Liberation War:

On the 2oth of January, 2023, the world woke up to a release from the Canadian Global Affairs on Peace process in Cameroon. The communique by the ” Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Foreign Affairs,” outlines her own Ambazonian leaders that they have reached an agreement with for “peace process aimed at resolving the ongoing crisis in the North-West and South-West regions of Cameroon.” Akin to Omar El- Bashir, announcing his agreement with Riek Machar and the other South Sudanese rebel groups without the main group of Dr. John Garang, or a deal with Buthelezi for the end-of-Apartheid without the ANC. The Canadian release further xrays Canada’s ignorance of the main actors in the Ambazonia War of Independence. She enumerated the parties known to her:

“The parties to this agreement are the Republic of Cameroon, the Ambazonia Governing Council and the Ambazonia Defence Force, the African People’s Liberation Movement and the Southern Cameroons Defence Force, the Interim Government, and the Ambazonia Coalition Team. The parties further express the hope that other groups will join the process.’’

Dissecting the Parties

The Ambazonia Governing Council is owned by Dr. Ayaba Cho, while their atrocities are not the issue here, the fact that the Canadians will further sign another agreement with his defense wing – Ambazonia Defense Forces(ADF) , is tantamount to De Klerk signing separate agreements with the ANC and The Spear of the Nation (ANC’s military wing. Same goes for the African People’s Liberation Movement of Dr. Akwanga and its military wing – the Southern Cameroons Defence Force (SOCADEF). Worth noting is that these two defense groups form less than 18% of the military fighting in the Ambazonia War of Independence. The bulk of the military and humanitarian burden of the war is under the Ambazonia Restoration Forces (ARF), under the Ambazonia Interim government headed by Dr. Sako Ikome, who like Dr. John Garang was sidelined by the Canadians in their pursuit of peace in ” the NorthWest and South West parts of Cameroun.” A statement in which some of the lone rangers calling themselves groups leaders at the Canadian “pre-talks” like the forgotten Yerima-led IG, have been diving in dark corners, after the French Cameroun Government denied ever asking Canada to engage in any mediation or negotiations on her behalf. After the statement, what has not been in short supply is the baseless claim that the French Cameroun Government gave its blessing. As for any document to ascertain the explicit authority to Canada to carry on such initiative, none has been forth coming.

Below is the Canadian Release about the failed Peace process.

What’s Next?

Canada, her allies and backer of French Cameroun know best what to do. The general sentiments among British Southern Cameroonians is the fact that Canada’s leadership is bent on aiding France extend its sphere of influence by erasing the English-speaking people of the British Southern Cameroons. The killings have been going on now for the 7th year and Canada has failed to sympathize with the minority English-speaking people who from the onset like Quebec wanted nothing other than to be treated as equals. The Canadians and their allies treated Ukrainians differently and sanctioned Putin after the invasion of Ukraine. They did same in the 90s after Saddam took over Koweit. They helped South Sudan and North Sudan to reach a peace deal after more than 25 years of war, the UK gave Scotland a vote about the their union with the UK. The UK herself organized a vote about Brexit. French Cameroun is supported and defended by Paris. They can end the Atrocity Crimes now by forcing Paul Biya and French Cameroun to commit to negotiations without pre-conditions. Without such economic pressure and threats of isolation, French Cameroun and France will continue to sleep-walk to any idea about independent mediators as the facts and logic of history are not on their side. Also the resources of the territory of Ambazonia are too important for them than human life The genocide has claimed more than 45,000 lives, more than 600 villages burnt by the French Cameroun soldiers, now called occupational forces. Close to two million are internally and externally displaced. What Ambazonians want is a well-backed and independent mediator, who will begin by recognizing the equality of the two Trust Territories.

A Look at Africa’s Oldest and most Brutal Dictator, Paul Biya, at 90

He is believed to be 89(born February  131933), at Mvomeka’a, in the Southern part of French Cameroon . As president since 1982, he has outlived four French Presidents, eight UK Prime Ministers and six U.S Presidents. The BBC and other Western Media outfits describe him as an absentee landlord, who governs from his Intercontinental Hotel suit in Geneva, Switzerland. The Wall Street Journal  cautions the world not to declare him missing until his entire floor at the hotel is searched. Here he and his about 50-man entourage spend an average of $40,000 a day on hotel bills alone, excluding other amenities.  His chartered round trip to Geneva and back to Yaoundé cost about $855,000. In addition to this extravagant lifestyle is his waste on lobbyists in DC. Between 2017 -2020, Vanguard Africa reports that he spent about a million dollars on lobbyists in the US. This has increased since then with more firms reaping from the dictator as he tries to cling unto power and cleanse his image with massive killings of the minority English-speaking population. Foreign Policy Magazine details the lobbying by Biya and other dictators in Washington DC here.

He is a product of French colonial rule in Africa and has maintained an iron fist in this Central African country with a checkered history unopposed for four decades. He is the continent’s second longest governing dictator, with 40 years as president, seven prior to that as Prime Minister, and a couple as minister. This “African Strongman’s” horrible human rights record is no secret to the world – arbitrary arrests and disappearances, army and police brutality, mass bunker prisons, jailing of journalists among other crimes. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), ranks the country as the second in the world after Egypt in jailing journalists for false news charges. The U.S State Department’s 2017 human rights report on the country puts the abuses squarely on the frail 86-year-old Paul Biya who is the legislative, judiciary and executive head of Cameroun, ordering arrests and detentions at will. He equally controls every social and cultural life of the country including the Catholic Church, where prelates from his tribe have vehemently defended his ills.

Military Brutality over Development

While development has stagnated since 1982 when he took over power, his military has benefited from enormous latest western-style weapons and training. This support has elevated any uniform-wearing officer to the status of a demi-god. Biya’s name is branded by these arrogant officers as a license for gross human rights abuses with impunity. Nowhere are these crimes evident daily than the systematic annihilation of the minority English-speaking population that has got a short end of the stick from a union with the majority French-speaking country, since 1961. Here innocent civilians and their residences are razed by the soldiers with no remorse. just like Hitler called the Jews names to help in their extermination, Paul Biya and his killer squad started by calling the English-speaking people DOGS(chien), and now secessionists or terrorists, thus justifying their extermination.

Presided Over the Mass Execution of Every Ethnic Group but His

As one of Cameroun’s oldest administrators, Paul Biya has participated and also presided over the massacre of all other ethnic groups in the country but his Beti/Bulu clan.

Biya and the French  presided over the annihilation of more than 100,000 Bamilekes and Bassas in the pre and post colonial era.“Cameroon’s independence from France was a bitter struggle,” Cameroonian editorialist Gabriel Mbarga told RFI recently. Nationalist unrest broke out at the end of France’s 10-year rule in 1955 and was brutally suppressed by French forces, leaving thousands dead. “It became very violent after the suspension of the UPC independence party and the assassination of its leader Ruben Um Nyobe on 13 September 1958,” Mbarga said. “Estimates of the death toll, still debated by many experts, range from 100,000- 400,000 people killed between 1959 and 1964. In the department of Sanaga Maritime, largely populated by the ethnic group named the Bamileke, 120,000 were killed in 1960 alone” Mbarga concluded. (Click here).

Although only about 1000 people were officially said to have been arrested and eventually sentenced to death by Biya, for a failed coup in 1984, living witnesses talk of a deathly purge of northerners by the dictator following the coup. Thousands are said to have been eliminated. Since then, Biya has been more brutal in his crack down even on legitimate opposition. in 2008 during legitimate demonstration against higher food prices and an attempt to change the constitution to enable him run as president again, Biya and his soldiers are said to have killed more than 100 civilians. The U.S Statement Department’s 2008 report was blunt on the dictator’s actions,“Security forces committed numerous unlawful killings. Security forces also engaged in torture, beatings, and other abuses, particularly of detainees and prisoners” (Click here).

Majority of people on the streets of Cameroun had long felt it was time for the frail and stone-hearted octogenarian to go, but the fear of incarceration and charges of sedition, terrorism, or other trump up charges, all punishable by the death penalty put a lid on these rumblings from imploding. Measured opposition on the internet is seriously monitored by the regime’s secret men who are everywhere.

“How can our prayers be answered in Zimbabwe?’’, a brave social media post by a frustrated Camerounian made the rounds, after another sit-tight octogenarian – Robert Mugabe was overthrown in November 19, 2017, by Mnangagwa. Other paranoid Cameroonian activists caricatured Mugabe with luggage on his head dragging a seemingly glued Biya behind. Despite these abuses which run afoul western values, the puzzling question has been; why has the dictator been able to stay in power for this long, when others with less human rights crimes such as Maduro of Venezuela are on the West’s chopping board?

Our Dictator.

In addition to unfettered French intervention in FrenchCameroun’s affairs since 1959, as part of a pre-independence agreement, including deciding who rules, Biya has benefited enormously from Western and Chinese military assistance. According to the website Defenseweb, Biya’s arms suppliers include the United States, South Africa, Spain, Serbia, Russia, Israel and France. These countries have delivered weapons ranging from “armored vehicles, transport and combat helicopters, mortars, unmanned aerial vehicles and light and transport aircraft.” Most in the guise of fighting Islamic extremism. The U.S even maintains a drone base in the country and helps with training. Mr. Biya has not shied to direct these weapons against his citizens frustrated with his loathsome administration.

While some of these countries are known for their dismal human rights records, the silence of others like the U.S, Canada and Germany to well corroborated abuses have been stunning. An Amnesty international investigation in 2017, shows abuses at Fotokol and Salek military base in the Northern part of the country (Click here). The base at the time of the abuses had about 300 U.S personnel. Victims claim they saw white men in the window of their cells. Numerous evidences of families and children being massacred in the North (Click here), and rivers with corpses and mass graves in the English regions of the country have failed to muster western ire. Kudos to the Kingmaker – France that ensures the world looks elsewhere. While the old global order has largely insulated these abuses from a global audience thus a leeway for songbirds of human rights to conceal their double standards, digital media has provided no space for such spins. These crimes are easily and instantly put on the menu and dining tables of these global power-players like the UN and its member-states

US Military Training Biya’s Soldiers

Policymakers who have often reacted instantly to abuses in their own countries have remained indifferent to such gory images coming from their dictators such as Paul Biya of Cameroon. The UK for example despite agreeing that Paul Biya has committed crimes against humanity in the anglophone regions still signs a $1.5B oil and gas deal to be executed in the anglophone regions where the massacres and ethnic cleansing are taking place (Click here). Here a French Cameroun-appointed administrator on radio ordered villagers to leave or be “neutralized” – a word used by the dictator and his soldiers as they kill for fun in English-Cameroon.

While this western hypocrisy has fortified the position of these dictators thus increasing their appetite for more genocidal acts on their citizens, it has also eroded the credibility of organizations like the UN and countries like the US, UK, Germany etc, as leading global defenders of human rights. Even the U.S has overlooked its own laws by continuing to maintain military relations with Mr. Biya despite the Leahy Law that forbids assistance to any country with questionable human rights records. In the midst of what the U.S Ambassador to Cameroon Mr. Henry Balerin calls “targeted killings” of anglophones, the U.S still donated military aircrafts to the dictator.

At Least 40,000 English-speakers(Ambazonians) Massacred since 2016

It is estimated that Mr. Biya has killed more than 40,000 innocent civilians in the English-speaking regions of the country who are demanding for a safeguard of their rights in the union which they voted to belong as co-equals in 1961. More than 500,000 are internally displaced with another 120,000 as refugees in Nigeria (Click here). To see the unfolding genocide, click here. While these evidences equal or supersede the same crimes, the U.S and the West are advancing as reason to depose Maduro of Venezuela, who has been in power for shorter than Biya, the West’s darling dictator remains steadfast in his abuses including jailing political dissenters. The almost 90-year-old dictator’s desire to ethnically cleans any community that opposes him are articulated even by some of his ministers who believe such actions is justified. For Biya’s Justice Minister, Momo Jean de Dieu, annihilating any Camerounian who opposes Biya will be justified just like Hitler’s massacre of 6 million “industrious and arrogant Jews”, who posed a threat to him and Germany (Click here). As one Cameroon activists puts it, “It’s hypocritical for the Israeli Ambassador to Cameroun to be outrage and demands an apology over Jews and holocaust comments, when the actual holocaust is happening with the Anglophones  in Cameroon”.

Rigged Elections with Bogus Election Observers

Since Mr. Biya willy-nilly accepted multiparty politics in 1990, he and his ruling Cameroun People’s Democratic Movement (CPDM) continue to choke with victory constipation at all elections while all contenders cry foul. To embellish his image globally, the old fox has embarked on lobbying and fake election observers. In 2005, while election observers such as former Canadian PM, the Roman Catholic Church under Cardinal Christian Tumi, characterized Biya’s 71% victory as “surrounded by fraud like previous ones”, the dictator was up with a big bounty for fake election observers from the US. Biya picked up the tab of $80,000 for an Association of Former Members of the U.S Congress headed by a Biya lobbyist at the time, Ronnie Shows. The association despite global assessment of a fraud election, endorsed the outcome claiming: “This is what democracy is about.” A month after, one of the six-members of the delegation signed a new lobbying contract with the dictator to feed global opinion about the democratic strides being undertaken.

Sticking to his old playbook, the octogenarian and cronies produced the same script in 2018. However, new technology was not on their side. With gross apathy and verifiable election rigging, Mr. Biya this time hired some fraudsters from the U.S ranging from farmers in Ohio to a Jewish activists/Journalist in the name of Nurit Greenger, claiming to be representing Transparency International (Click here). A claim debunked by Transparency International. When questioned on social media for the gross deception, the group’s leader was unapologetic and offensive, blocking anybody on social media who challenges their action on the Cameroun election. The state’s propaganda media houses that lied to the country about the independence of the observers have maintained sealed lips on the scam. Despite these documented anti-democratic tactics to cling unto power at all cost, the “democratic” West have stood by the old dictator failing even to formally condemn these totalitarian actions that have deprived the country of some of its citizens and meaningful progress. Mr. Biya is more focused on quashing dissent than the well-being of the repressed population. As one French Cameroun blogger puts it, “Putting pressure on Maduro to resign while, coaxing with dictator Biya is bad for western values”.

Is the end in Sight?

At almost 90, the Lion man is scarcely seen at official ceremonies that he used to preside over. What the world and country is used to now is compulsory younger portrait of Biya, displayed at such events and others by loyal party leaders and his appointed followers. The state media (CRTV), has embarked on a skillful media manipulation of his every appearance, such as diverting viewer attention when the old man fumbles at well-planned ceremonies like the African Nation’s cup or Macron’s visit to the country. His recent dismal appearance was at the US- Africa Summit November 2022, where a frail-looking Biya, was filmed in a conference center demanding from his assistant, if there were important people in the room. Many interpret it as his inability to know where he was. “How can a president at an occasion for presidents be asking if there are important people present.” A social media post questions. These snippets of blunders are fodder to the population of the country who have no outlet for their frustration. It happened in the US because the dictator, and his state media had no control over the event. Back in the country, while all opposition has been silenced, his eldest son, FranK Biya, has been allowed to test his political power by criss-crossing the country talking to traditional leaders loyal to his father. Many have interpreted the move as groundwork for his eventual successor to his father. A father-son succession typical in all the countries of the Central African Region.

With brutality, nepotism, bribery and corruption, divide and conquer, Biya has succeeded to stay in power, but coking a combustible tank that will definitely explode when there is no scary image of him at every corner in the country. The anglophone regions that today has limited control from him is moving increasingly away from Biya and maybe the two Cameroons as was initiated in 1961. The majority Muslin north is equally claiming that any post-Biya succession must revert back to them. These uncertain events are likely to unfold uglily for the Cameroons.

Another Grand Mother, 75-year-old, Gang-raped and Executed by French Cameroun Soldiers.

This weaponization of rape by the French Cameroun soldiers is well documented, but nothing has been done to protect the victims or discourage this humiliating libido of these beasts. Even women and their organizations that have championed the crusade for peace in the Cameroons have shied away from these uncountable atrocious crimes that these Sanguinary soldiers, now seen as forces of occupation continue to commit on the vulnerable people of British Southern Cameroons(Ambazonia). The church and its leaders have become God’s “holy” soldiers, with lies in defending the killers of these faith-full Christians, while deceiving them that God is in control. Recently, the Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon, Rev. Fonki Samuel Forba throw his own pastor under the bus, as he defends the French Cameroun soldiers who shot at the church in Balinyounga, killing one, wounding many. One of the wounded being the pastor whom the Moderator, dismiss his testimony of who shot at them. Click here for that story.

Mama Munji Cecilia, on that faithful 19 October, 2022, had just taken her evening bath after toiling the fields. As she was about to apply lotion on her body, the French Cameroun soldiers, sneaking on her forced their way into her room. An eyewitness recount, “The woman had just taken her bath and was in her room when the soldiers entered. many who saw them took cover and after sometime in her room, we heard gun shots. When they left, we rushed there only to see her naked body in the pool of her own blood. We are saddened and I feel like fighting back. Enough is enough,” A native of new town, Guzang narrates the ordeal of Mama Munji .

Anger and Fear Fill the Air

Angry cries from the bewildered population fill the area as the remains were ferried to the mortuary. Images on her dead bed show her naked with traces of blood on her laps and the bed sheet. She was an avowed Presbyterian Christian. Her rape is one too many in the ongoing genocide that has killed more than 36,000 people. The French Cameroun soldiers have raped right from babies to old mothers, including breast feeding mothers by the road side in broad daylight. No one dares question their genocidal sex weapon as the consequences is death. Recently, innocent villagers were killed in Fungom, Wum, after a French Cameroun soldier kidnapped a young girl into the bushes, without telling their colleague. When his whereabouts could not be ascertained, the French Cameroun soldiers unloaded their guns killing at least six innocent villagers, accusing them of their relatives having killed their colleague. When he re-emerged after the “forceful” rape, nothing happened as the villagers bury their loved ones. An act that continues to unfold in the six-year-long civil war.
