Politics

I want us to understand the role political parties registered under Republique’s laws play in our struggle. We have lightly touched on it, but we did not go deep enough to allow us to see that these parties are the real underlying enemies to our freedom. Through our participation in them, we stand in direct contradiction to our struggle and our words!

If we can understand their role and disengage from them, we are bound to be free. Refusing to participate in all political parties operating in Republique du Cameroun is key to our freedom. In other countries such as Canada, the law allows parties to be created in Quebec whose goal is the sovereign independence of Quebec, as for the example, the Parti Quebecois. In Britain, the law also allows Scotland to have its national parties whose purpose is to restore their independence. In imperial Cameroun, their leaders, who have setup themselves as the gods of the Southern Cameroons, forbid the creation of any party whose goal is the restoration of the independence of the Southern Cameroons. They are, of course conscious of their illegal occupation and dread the fact that allowing such a party would see the independence of the Southern Cameroons even in its first year of operation. All other parties which help its colonisation and assimilation are registered as a matter of course. These include the SDF and the CPDM, the two parties in which most Southern Cameroonians find themselves.

We are not speaking as if we are all nationalists. I do understand that there are some amongst Southern Cameroonians who say they want federation. They call themselves federalists. But within the context of current international law, what is the foundation of a federation between the Southern Cameroons and Republique du Cameroun, considering in particular the mountain of evidence supporting Southern Cameroons independence? What is the case for federation? They say they have been forced into submission by Republique du Cameroun’s threat of war if we ask for independence! These are those who continue to cling to political parties operating under Republique’s laws. But we can predict that their own children will grow up and question their federation, just as we, who were still children, have grown up to question the fraudulent relation, not even “union”, between the Southern Cameroons and Republique du Cameroun. As I have explained time and again, there is absolutely no one-Cameroon formula in which the people of Southern Cameroons can have a space of existence of their own. No good laws can cure the situation, because we are dealing simply with a game of numbers. If you form any form of federation, it would be only a matter of time before you discover that federation cannot cure the fundamental problem, which is that of the people of the Southern Cameroons being overwhelmed by an alien and foreign people, whose alien ways will inevitably suppress those of the People of the Southern Cameroons! You will discover that you will not have any backyard of your own; that in every class room you would be a minority; that your language would be replaced by a foreign language; that in your own towns, you would become a minority and mere spectator, and so on. Check what is happening in Quebec. When you finally understand that we are dealing merely with a game of numbers, you will see the futility of any other option but total independence! You will cling firmly to nothing but sovereign independence, because that is the single and sole protection you have, if you want to have a space of existence of your own!
 
For those who rightly believe in independence as a right, I wish to explain the contradiction in which we find ourselves. On the one hand we say we want freedom and independence; on the other hand, we are promoting the annexation of our territory by joining the political parties operating under Republique du Cameroun’s laws.

How can we get freedom when we have used our participation in Republique’s political parties to accept that we are one country? How? Our action of participating in their political parties is an absolute contradiction to our claims to independence! I want us to see what we are doing to ourselves!!! Here, our actions are speaking louder than our words!

Further, I want us to see that our participation is voluntary, not forced! No one comes to your house to force you to belong to any political party. If we accept that our participation in Republique’s parties is voluntary, then we accept that we have the power to refuse to participate in those parties.

Nothing holds the Southern Cameroons down today more than our participation in the political parties of Republique du Cameroun. We have crippled ourselves with that participation! In this, the SDF is even more dangerous to our aspiration of independence than the CPDM, because some of our people may still have a soft spot for it. Fru Ndi, having become a prisoner of the system, will constantly talk of federation, because he has no option. By doing this, he divides the mind of our people and creates confusion. Our people feel a certain attachment to the SDF because of the memories of the suffering they went through in creating it and what they have suffered in it. But the truth is also that all that suffering has been in vain as far as the restoration of the independence of the Southern Cameroons is concerned. The CPDM, on its part, is likely to die with Biya, but because it is in power, you will always find those who crawl on the ground to pick the crumbs. These two parties therefore present the greatest threat to our struggle because a good portion of our people are in them.

We must now choose whether those parties are more important to us or the sovereign independence of our own country, the Southern Cameroons. We must choose whether we want to continue to be slaves of Republique du Cameroun or free people in our own homeland where we will be free to become the president if we want.

We cannot be crying for freedom, when we hold the keys in our hands; when we ourselves have locked up the door to freedom through our participation in the politics of Republique du Cameroun. Let us understand the terrible contradiction in which we put ourselves and quickly take steps to cause all our people to withdraw from these parties.

What is even more shocking is that there is absolutely nothing to show for all that useless party politics in Republique du Cameroun. It is all corruption, nepotism, bribery and confusion. Why should our people continue to go dancing in the rain and sun when what they are doing cannot contribute in the least way to their welfare? Why? We can only conclude that it is all the result of brainwashing and the falsehood in which our people have been living.

1.    When you join parties registered under Republique du Cameroun’s laws, you are made to fly its flag, sing its anthem, compete for power within Republique du Cameroun; honour its symbols and emblems; show patriotism to Republique! Yet, by aspiring for our own independence, we want to fly the Southern Cameroons flag, not that of Republique; we want to sing the Southern Cameroons anthem; honour its symbols, and reject everything that belongs to Republique du Cameroun! Today, the truth has been exposed, and all our people can see the falsehood in which they have been living. They have been flyging the flag, singing the anthem and honouring the symbols of their oppressor and colonizer, hiding in sheep’s clothing. When shall we stop the folly?  Above all you grant Republique a right within the Southern Cameroons merely through that participation.  

2.    Through our participation in Republique’s political parties, we enable Republique to create One National Assembly and One Government with the Southern Cameroons. It is this One Government and One National Assembly which is the final proof Republique offers to the world that the Southern Cameroons and Republique du Cameroun are one country!!!

3.    Through our participation in those parties, we voluntarily give Republique du Cameroun an alibi and proof to show the world that we are one country. If we say we are not one country, all we have to do is refuse to participate in its political parties!!!

4.    Our participation in the political parties of Republique du Cameroun helps to accomplish the agenda of the assimilation and dissolution of the Southern Cameroons in Republique du Cameroun. By joining those political parties, we are actually assisting Republique du Cameroun in its assimilation agenda. How? Because our participation forbids us from asking questions about its illegal occupation of our territory! If we want to restore our identity and sovereignty, we must refuse to participate in those parties.

5.    It is our participation in Republique’s politics that permits it to sit our MPs in its parliament and fill other colonial positions from MPs to Mayors, thus claiming that we are fully represented through our democratic participation. We must reject all of this by withdrawing from those parties! We have been asking our MPs to withdraw. Ok. But we can achieve the same goal by asking all our people to withdraw from all political parties operating in Republique. This is not only possible, but the easiest thing for us to do if we do not want war and bloodshed!

6.    Through those parties, we are barred from raising issues which are specific or peculiar to the Southern Cameroons. We are forced to be constantly talking about general or so-called national issues and therefore suppressing our own problems; in short to be agents of the assimilation!

7.    Through our participation, we sit our MPs in their parliament, where they have no voice; they are constantly in the minority; they cannot raise any issue relating to their people; where they are simply providing an alibi for the stealing of our resources and for our unconscious assimilation. NO! NO! NO! We have seen it all!

8.    Through those parties you cannot question the legality of Republique’s presence in the Southern Cameroons; you cannot challenge Republique’s annexation of the Southern Cameroons; you cannot ask Republique to show the proof which gives it jurisdiction in the Southern Cameroons. By our participation, we have terribly compromised ourselves! We have through those parties denied ourselves the possibility of even speaking as a people! If we are to question these things, we must first quit all political parties operating in Republique du Cameroun!

Countrymen, we can elaborate this aberration even further, but I believe we all see it clearly now. Let us all wage the campaign to get our people withdraw from these parties. This is the most important campaign we have to do. This, in short, is the real and final battle.

The first thing we should do is ask all our people to burn all those party cards and uniforms. They should all refuse to participate in the politics of Republique du Cameroun! After that, we ban all political activities within our territory until independence.

Atemnkeng.

A group of abducted Southern Cameroonians have spoken from Cameroon's ' Gauntanamo' SED where they are being held underneath in a deplorable dark dungeon.The spokesperson of the group, Asaah Patrick Ndangoh, speaks in the secretly recorded video to the world.

He says they have been held hostage in various hidden cells by the Biya regime soldiers.The abducted Southern Cameroonians released the video for the world to know their condition as they have been arrested without a crime and abandoned.They are to embark on a hunger strike as from tomorrow August the 6th 2017. 

Below is the statement from the group:

My name is: Asaah Patrick Ndangoh . Am speaking on behalf of 12 of us who where kidnapped by armed gangs and thugs of the Paul Biya of the Paul Biya regime and the government if la republique due Cameron .
Since our abduction some six months ago we have been held hostage at verious hidden cells in conditions only comparable to concentration dead camps with the singular purpose to kill us .
At the moment we are being held at the SED gendarmerie in a bunker .
If dying is the price that we must pay to guarantee our freedom and to reestablished the independent if our country, then,it is a price worth paying.
Whatever you do,and whatever you think, please,do not be afraid !fear will kill you faster than any bullet .Act and think according to the righteousness of your motives.
The decay, the corruption, and the uselessness of the Paul Biya regime and what has become of la republic du Cameroon must never become us. We are a million times better than those .
It is our individual and our collective responsibility to forge this new nation we all dream of.
SOUTHERN CAMEROON: it is my country damn it !

The govt of Cameroun only woke up a couple of days ago to discover that the people of the former British Southern Cameroons have made huge diplomatic gains towards the restoration of their independence.
Accordingly, they have embarked on a fight back move by sending surrogates to several countries in the world. All former ministers, directors, and even business men are abroad now trying to undo these huge gains. Danpullo had to cover Senegal, Guinea and neighbouring countries. Laurent Esso to cover western Europe,  the Ghoghomou delegation to cover the Americas and the UN etc etc.  

These missions will fail woefully firstly because the govt has shown bad faith in handling the crises. The continuous arrests and detention of leaders despite calls from international bodies to release them has put the regime's image in the blacklist of the international community.
Secondly, a lot of awareness has been created on the Southern Cameroons issue so no amount of lies telling can undo this.

Thirdly the surrogates themselves are corrupt so even the money given to be used for "diplomatic" purposes will be swindled.
Besides, so many countries are now in favour of restoration of independence. The people have left Egypt and Pharaoh has sent his soldiers to bring them back. Have no fear. Use ur eyes of faith to see the pillar of cloud and fire preventing them from catching up.
To make matters worse there is an official US Senate briefing tomorrow on this crises with a powerful team in place to push through and official Senate statement recognising the independence of the southern Cameroons. This will end the game.

The “diplomatic missions” dispatched by Yaoundé to “explain the crisis” in the Northwest and Southwest regions should be viewed with the disdain and suspicion it deserves. This leopard has spots and will not loose them anytime soon.

That they have been forced to do so is one indicator that our efforts have not been without impact. But, make no mistake, they will seize every opportunity to sabotage, subvert and undermine all the progress we have made, and this could include extreme countermeasures. This regime has an odious history; we should all be on alert and exercise extreme caution.  

This memo is to advice all our citizens and members that Yaoundé will certainly be using the cover of this mission to gather intelligence, to probe and to exploit weaknesses in our movement. We have strong indications that there is a dragnet intelligence operation behind these missions. To stay in power, expect Yaoundé to employ corruption (bribery) of coercion (force) both abroad and at home. You are therefore advised as follow:

• Avoid private gatherings organized by these regime operatives. Evening or night-time meetings are strongly discouraged.
• Employ basic disguise to your appearance whenever possible (hats, wigs, make-up will suffice). Eating and drinking with them is ill-advised.
• Make provisions to alert local law enforcement agencies should you have any suspicions or fear for your life.
• Avoid any cameras recording equipment accompanying the delegation. These are dual-use devices.
• Always consult local laws for clear guidelines before making a citizen’s arrest for their well documented crimes against Southern Cameroonians at home.
• Build an information-sharing network of your own and ensure to advise the leadership of any valuable information.
• Finally, where possible, go out and demonstrate en masse wherever these operatives of the Yaounde regime are visiting.

Ours continues to be a citizens’ movement and the law is on our side. We are under no obligation to give them respite for the illegal annexation and occupation of our homeland. That our leaders continue to be held in jail is adequate proof that you can expect no goodwill from these characters.

Mr Chairman,

1. What has changed since the crises began that you are calling on school resumption?

2. If the school in Cameroon was so sound, why don’t you bring your children and grand children who are abroad back?

3. You who champion calls for boycotts in the 90s, and now making a 360⁰ turn on everything you claimed to stand for, what has changed in Cameroon?

4. Where is the earthquake we were promised by the SDF in the kangaroo parliament?

5. Do you remember how we disowned our fons for the SDF, do you think we can disown you as well?

6. Have you taken the support we southern Cameroonians give to the SDF and make it relevant as a blank cheque?

7. You who care so much about children, what about the families of those who gave their lives in the 90s and those who lost limbs to grenades?

8. You have joined the chorus of those blaming the diaspora for everything that has gone wrong in LRC. Do you know that Southern Cameroons is alive only because of remittances from the diaspora?

9. Have you ever asked why almost all the entire work force of southern Cameroonians who could afford move abroad?  

10.  After failing to quake the kangaroo house of parliament, how much more humiliation will the SDF take before quitting that parliament?

11. Is it normal for an mp to be stopped from talking in the house because he is not well dressed?

12.  Do you find it normal for a defense counsel to be sent out of court the way Mbah Ndam was  in the last session at the military tribunal?

13. Why do you think you stand a chance now better than in 1992 to ever rule LRC?

14.  What do you have to say to the buffoon francophone journalist who referred to southern Cameroonians as “rats” ?

15.  Rightly or wrongly you and your supporters have claimed credit for having brought freedom of speech to LRC. Do you believe there is freedom of speech?

16. If so, what are Justice Ayah Paul, Maitre Agbor Balla , Dr Fontem, Mancho Bibixy and dozens of southern Cameroonians doing in Kondengui?

17.  Why should any form of federation within LRC work now after the first one was sabotaged in 1972?

18.  Who do you put first, the people or the party? Do you think Hon Wirba has a right to speak for his people regardless of party position?

Mr Chairman,
I will end the questions here hoping you answer or assign someone to answer given the fact that you are an opinion leader . You are now in our cross hairs because your positions are very controversial and it is important you make clarity.
We have seen leaders like Mola Njoh Lithumbe,Nfor Nfor and others stand by us. Your positions and often controversial outbursts have deprived you of any positive legacy you had left.                                                                                 
 and in a race, a good athlete knows when to quit.
Maybe you are terrified of becoming irrelevant pretty soon as new forces beyond your control rise in Southern Cameroons. One thing is clear, just as time exposed the diabolism hidden in Ahijo′s supposed desire to unify West and East Cameroon, twenty years have shown that your no better than your “frenemies” of the regime.
Your positions sometimes run even contrary to those of many mps and its supporters for example the Wirba episode.
When I see you wine and dine with them all over the map I wonder what has changed in Cameroon that makes you so satisfied. May be the soya you now eat with them is so sweet and the pepper so hot that you have forgotten all the undertakings of twenty something years back. My advice for you now is that a true athlete knows when to quit.

Sensitively Yours,
Jamam Kim
