There are more than 2 million Refugees in Nigeria, Ghana and other countries displaced by the Civil war since 2016. More than 53,000 , most of them innocent civilians have been killed by the French Cameroun colonial military, which has no regards for human life of the English speakers. More than 800 villages have also been razed by the invading French Cameroun soldiers.

The resilience of the refugees according to Dr. Sako Ikome, is unrivaled. He assured all that FrenchCameroun must negotiate with Ambazonia as equals, just like they did in 1961 in Foumban This was where the government of the BritishCameroons Under Dr. John Ngu Foncha and FrenchCameroun under Amhdou Ahidjo, ironed out the terms of the union of the two UN TRUST Territories. The terms were later violated by the majority FrenchCameroun people, leading to the brutal Civil War now in its 8th year.

The people of British Southern Cameroons (Ambazonia) once again defied all odds to show the world that despite the brutality of the occupier – FrenchCameroun, backed by France, their resolve to unshackle themselves from FrenchCameroun colonial bondage is unstoppable. With forced Disappearances, summary executions, burning of their villages by frenchCameroun soldiers, the territory’s state army (ASA)came out forcefully to show the world the realty of the war. FrenchCameroun propagandist have claimed that the civil war was over with just pockets of resistance. The military parades from all the nooks and crannied of the territory reveals more human and hardwire sophistication by the Ambazonia State Army(ASA). Going to its 8th year and with FrenchCameroun out of options, the picture of 1st October 2024, tells a story of a determined force that only a negotiated settlement can end the conflict. The Civil War now has claimed more than 53 000 lives. Below are links to some videos of the celebrations.

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.

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. Read Canada’s Khartoum role here

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

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)

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.

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

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.
