TWO CUBES OF SUGAR.
10 months ago, the Anglophone problem was referred to as two cubes of sugar in a basin of water. Its unfortunate that I dont remember he who made the declaration and Id be most obliged to get the name of the person in question. The two cubes of sugar have snowballed into a TSUNAMI that will not only sweep away this Regime but it threatens the very core of the Cameroonian State. The two cubes of sugar have now caused an entire Government to run helter-skelter in diverse ministerial delegations to the US, Belgium, UK, NIGERIA, SOUTH AFRICA and still counting..just two cubes of sugar.
A few days back, a minister signed an Executive order banning the name Anglophone and referring rather to the NW and SW Regions (confirming the thesis of two cubes of sugar) as though it changes anything.
There is a lot of power in the tongue. The warrior, Hon Wirba who made the above statement had NO intent to spite the Anglophones at all; but I wonder if he never knew that he was making a prophetic declaration that will transform Cameroon for the entire life time. He didn't mention that these two cubes of sugar have failed to dissolve for 60 years and still counting. *We cannot under mind the effects on the human body, when the pancreas fail to dissolve sugar and the body is starved of energy, a very dangerous type of diabetes that prevents the system from functioning normally, leading to a plethora of diseases outside diabetes like; high blood pressure kidney problems, excessive loss of weight, impotence and others. Cameroon is exhibiting the exact diabetic trait today with the rise of the Anglophone problem.*
The first stage of INSANITY is when you keep counting the money in your pocket over and over and over again, expecting that it will increase. For over 10 months, diverse delegations have shuttled the national territory in a bid to diffuse the current stalemate to no avail. These delegations have had both serious and comic agents of this dark Regime and Cameroonians have not been spared of the comedy like when the people of WUM embarrassed PM YANG by asking him to explain to the people what happened in lake Nyos in 1985 or Ngalle Bibehe who wept bitterly in full view of the public or the impostor Garga Haman Adji who was disgraced in Kumba and given marching orders, before he turned coat and masterminded the arrest of Anglophone leaders or even Bishop Kleda who was humiliated so badly that to put a final nail on his coffin, a certain Gerard JUMBAM gave him a deafening blow in an explosive epistle.
Lets take a closer look at the two delegations visiting the US and BELGIUM.
Elvis Ngolle Ngolle does not occupy any post at the moment nor does he have any portfolio in Cameroon as a member of government or as an elected leader so what is his role as the head of the delegation? The other delegation is headed by Laurent Esso who was actually a mastermind in aggravating the crises back home is the one heading the delegation here. Which Anglophone can listen to Laurent Esso after all that he did back home? We have the minister in charge of relations with the COMMON WEALTH who could have best suited the delegation to show that Cameroon is bilingual and the Anglophones are well represented. Goghomu was the first to use the word, extremists before his master BIYA adopted it and it became a National sing song. Goghomu led the inter-ministerial commission that failed woefully in Bamenda. What makes BIYA imagine Goghomu will succeed abroad? We see a president who is suffering from advanced senility and intellectual menopause. We see a failed state, a regime that is in its last days and the leaders know it so well, reason why they want to destroy the little that is left before they leave the stage. Most of these big wigs have bought houses and sent their families abroad because of the highly volatile and potentially explosive situation they have created back home.
God has taken up the battle and the enemy is now within the house. A bishop was assassinated and faked drowning, shortly after that, 31 soldiers drowned in Cameroonian territory, most of who have not been found till date, 1 month today, and God showed us what true drowning was all about. The same week a gendarme killed 4 people including 3 officers in Maroua. The next week a military train derailed around Edea. On the day of the Bishop’s funeral, 2 expert escort riders meet their death, something unheard of in the history of this country. Believe me or not, God has taken over the battle and all the evils of this land will be exposed and atoned for. For over 10 months of the Anglophone crisis, Biya has moved from one categorical blunder to the next.
What dialogue are we talking about here, when the leaders we are supposed to dialogue with are rotting in jail?
If dialogue with the detained leaders who were less radical and FEDERALIST in motive failed, how does BIYA expect to dialogue with INDEPENDENTS abroad? This confirms the hidden agenda behind these visits, to kill our leaders abroad who are advised to stay aloof.
Is this man sane upstairs?
The same Diaspora BIYA is barring from coming to Cameroon is the same Diaspora you want to dialogue with. At the time when the government is calling on Diaspora to come and invest in Cameroon, yet they are barred from coming to Cameroon and it is the same people you want to dialogue with. The same people who were tagged as terrorists, with some facing the death penalty are the same people BIYA now wants to negotiate with. So many inexplicable paradoxes that beat my imagination
The greatest paradox that defies all human logic here is that the people who are fighting to killing Anglophones and are fighting very hard the Anglo-Saxon culture are encouraging it at home and even abroad. Reminds me of professional election riggers who mounted the streets to celebrate OBAMA victory and the thrive of American Democracy, yet they specialize in stealing votes and in rigging elections back home. They applaud Democracy, Development and Good Governance abroad but they do the reverse back home. This also reminds me of our Sunday school teacher whose prayer waslord give us more Priests, Pastors and Catechists but not my sons
Frank Biya spent so many years in the US, an Anglo Saxon country as opposed to France which would have been logical because his family is French-speaking.
Brenda Biya followed suit and she is perfect in the English language. Mendo Ze has kids in the US, Antoine Tsimi studied in the US, same with Justen Ndioro who lived and studied in the US for many years, Esimi Menye lived and worked in the US before coming to work as minister and returned to the US. Marafa Hamidou Yaya studied in the US as well and speaks perfect English. Laurent Esso courted an Anglophone woman for many years and has three big children (who are above 30 years of age) with her who are following the Anglo-Saxon culture and bear his full names yet he is the one torturing Anglophones this way.
So why are these leaders following the Anglo-Saxon culture abroad yet they are seeking to destroy the same culture at home?
Take a look at our universities; anyone can realize the massive influx of francophones into BUEA and BAMENDA universities. Go even to our colleges, Sacred Heart, SASSE, Lourdes, Sakes Baptist, SAC, PSS Mankon, etc, there is a growing population of francophones there, anybody can testify to these.
So why are these people fighting us, why do these people hate us so much?
The Anglo-Saxon culture is being adopted world wide as the universal culture and Cameroon has a special grace of having two dominating world cultures (ENGLISH and FRENC) yet visionless leaders are seeking to destroy the English culture. You never know what you have till you lose it. While China, India, Pakistan and Arab Gulf States are spending billions of dollars to import English teachers, visionless leaders in Cameroon are fighting tooth and nail to phagocyte the English culture. English has become the universal travel, business, science and technology, and information and communication language worldwide. Those who travel abroad can testify, we have all sign posts must have English, before any other language.

Two cubes of sugar have caused several Government Ministers to take turns in mounting podiums of various radio and TV channels talking about National unity for first time ever in the history of Cameroon.
Two cubes of sugar cause the internet shut down in what was known as the record breaking longest ever internet black out the world have ever known
Two cubes of sugar caused the transfer of Anglophone magistrates back to their regions

Don't be Afraid.
Don't Despair.

After sending the first group of the regime in power’s “praise singers” to the US who took off for their mission on Wednesday 03 August, another set of Ministers composed of Laurent Esso, Minister of Justice and Keeper of the Seals who is the leader, Lejeune Mbella Mbella, the Minister of External Relations and Tanyitiku Enoh Achuo, Attache at the Prime Minister’s office, have been designated to go to Brussels in Belgium, for a meeting with Cameroonians there on Saturday, 05 August 2017.

Their main mission to the seat of the European Union (EU), will be to tell government’s side of the story on the Anglophone crisis. Their main objective is to make Cameroonians in the Diaspora have the same mindset as them, considering Southern Cameroonians as those on the wrong and as those who are fighting to destabilize the country.

They equally want to present to Cameroonians in Brussels, what they call “government’s strategy” to tackle and solve the crisis, which apparently is becoming beyond their control due to tactlessness.

 The Prime Minister, Philemon Yang, on the high instruction of President Biya, has dispatched some Government spin doctors to assuage Cameroonians in the Diaspora as the Anglophone Crisis surges on.

The Government emissaries to the United States of America are made up of the Director of Civil Cabinet at the Prime Minister’s Office, Prof. Paul Ghogomu Mingo, the former Minister of Forestry and Wildlife, Prof.  Elvis Ngolle Ngolle, and the Technical Adviser at the Prime Minister's Office, Fabien Nkot.

The mission of the trio is to tell Government own side of the story concerning the ongoing Anglophone Crisis to the United States’ Government and to assuage Cameroonians resident in America.

Ghogomu, Ngolle Ngolle and Nkot will be in the USA from August 3 to 9, 2017.Since the escalation of the Anglophone Crisis in November 2016, Cameroonian Diaspora in the United States has been singled out by the Yaoundé regime as the main sponsor of the uprising that has paralysed socio-economic and professional activities in the North West and South West Regions.Since then, the demonstrations have taken different twists and turns as one segment of the English-speaking Regions is asking for a return to Federalism, while another segment is demanding for complete secession from the French speaking section of the country and the creation of a new state.

But the majority of Cameroonians based in the United States think that Federalism is the only way out of the Anglophone Crisis. The Cameroonian Diaspora had seized the American authorities and alerted the international community of the atrocities perpetrated in Cameroon by the Biya regime.When the demonstrations broke out, Government rolled out its military arsenal to squash all the dissenting voices that rose in protest.

The octogenarian Biya repeatedly insisted that "Cameroon is one and indivisible and intends to remain so."Government determination to quell the uprising led to numerous human rights abuses such the slaying of protesters, the haphazard arrests of Anglophone leaders, political witch-hunting and scores settling among others.Many of the ring leaders, especially those of the Cameroon Anglophone Civil Society Consortium were all arrested and are being tried in the military court in Yaounde for acts of terrorism, secession rebellion and for putting the security of the State in jeopardy. If found guilty, they would be given a death penalty, according to the recently adopted Cameroon Penal Code.

Following the recent developments in the struggle for independence the interim leader of the people of Southern Cameroons made an official speech addressing the state of the struggle. Below is the official speech in full.

Fellow Southern Cameroonians, fellow Ambazonians:

Accept war greetings from the Governing Council. This journey to the restoration of the independence of our nation is in full gear and we want to thank you all for your messages from all corners of the world. We have heard your voices from Australia, China, Europe, Americas and Africa. We are very encouraged by the enormous show of support and solidarity from our people back home. We want you all to be reassured that we are in this journey together until we get to Buea, in a country that we will call our own.

Let me start by addressing the three categories of Southern Cameroonians / Ambazonians in the face of what has become known as the Anglophone problem. There are three categories :- Unionist, Federalist and my camp the Nationalist.

• The Unionists (Statusquo in Government)
• Political groups part of the System: No allegiance to their people, No concern for the future.
• Civil Servants income from government Contractor and agents of these system: Their financial security is threatened; main income is grossly from their government jobs.
• No interest but migrated simply by fear: Mothers with children who have mastered Francophone.
• The Federalists
• They may be motivated by other motives but some are afraid of a war and the massacre of SCians
• The landscape here shows people for the most part of an older generation
• The Nationalists – Restoration of our glory land
• The future of SC does not lie in the hands of the older generation.
• They deserve to know a commitment that the younger generations have demonstrated in obtaining their freedom. This particular group of SC are clamouring for the restoration and they believe that the job must be completed

No matter your group

• You have the right to belong to your group and nobody should force you to belong to our group. The fight for freedom must be desired from within and cannot be imposed by everyone else. Consequently, if people want to give in the status quo, God bless them, they have the right to stay where they are. You make your choices and your choices will eventually make you

Federalists

• Free to make their choice
• What benefit have you derived in this union for the past 56 years?
• Have you not been told to speak in French
• Have you not been considered as Second-class citizen when you interact with people of CRC??
• Have your children not been passed over or discriminated in admission into National Institutions, jobs, pay, promotions.
• Is that what you want to continue to live under?
• What exactly do you benefit from the system other than your daily bread and something to cater for your children?
• Do you believe this system would ever change and if it does, will it not change for the worse?
• Why do you now believe that this bond and will is going to cure they terminal illness that the regime has inflicted for all these 56 years?

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Our people should not be lured into insanity and our youths are clearly aware of that.

It should be known that we are tired and we have to set ourselves free.

FEDERALISM: Who believes and advocate that we can gain the restoration of our independence only through war- by implication, what groups are actually selling is that the Biya regime will continue to carry out the brutal restoration of our people who are claiming independence. If they are right and God forbid, what then does it say of a system that would estaminate people without arms because they are fighting for their rights? How can anyone believe that they can remain in such an oppressive system and enjoy their God-given right of freedom and Liberty?

On the other hand, others have said that we cannot achieve restoration of our independence by making our case to the outside world. These groups of SC elites believe that since they tried earlier and failed, we should fold our hands and not try again. It is surprising and shocking that these are the same people advocating dialogue with LRC as if there have not been dialogue in the past 56 years. What makes them believe therefore that another round of dialogue this time will yield any fruit, when the actors with whom you have to dialogue have been in power for over 35 years? If these SCian elites believe that they can dialogue with this regime that has subjugated usfor this long with that principal leader who has been in power for 35 years and counting, they are free to go ahead.

Why do they not believe that another try at the UN, AU, ICC, and ICJ could achieve results? The passage oftime, the evolution of the world’s human right election and influence, and the fire in our youths of today give me the confidence to say that this is the time for action.

The idea of Federalism, no matter the form it takes, will result in a centralized government that will continue to oppress the inalienable rights of the minority people of SC.

Now, let me talk about the case for the restoration and our independence.

This Struggle

• Our dreams of independence come with UN resolution 1608. At that point, we were independent.Let me take that again; after the passage of UN article 1608 our nation of British Southern Cameroons was independent. Later in 1961, we were given two options to complete our sovereignty by joining with another independent country (either Nigeria or the Republic of Cameroun). The third option which would have saved us the servitude of the last 56 years:- that of forming our nation on our own, building on the institutions that were already in the works from 1954, was selfishly ignored.
• Our fore fathers believed in the sincerity of the leaders of LRC and therefore believed that the union, which was based on two separate independent States, would be a stronger national union, a win-win for both nations. We have come to see that the course of events has proven them wrong. Different dates, promises and bad faith have been the order of business from the two successive governments of LRC.

Given that all of these things never materialized what non-revocable guarantees can this government give you to ensure that your children and your children’s children will be given their full rights as human beings?

Now please indulge me to address President Paul Biya at this point.

Mr. President, notwithstanding the above mentioned failures of your stewardship on the notion of the people of SC; you are once again given an opportunity to show your leadership as a father. This occurred when lawyers and teachers expressed their rights to be granted. This requests were made because of the way and inefficient government that you have led over all these years.

You failed to listen to the cries of the people. 8 months have passed and the situation festered and has degenerated to where we are today. Instead of attending to the demands of the civil society groups, your government banned them, incarcerated their leaders, jailed other advocates, imprisoned other people, raped our daughtersand militarized our towns and village. Your government’s lack of response led to the manifestations on the streets. Mr. President, it is only when there was successful ghost town on Monday 9^th January 2017 that your government agreed to dialogue. This has been and continues to be the people’s protest. The people of SC are speaking clearly and loudly by their actions. You better listen to them. No one can lead a people without their consent. The people of SC are making their voices heard by their actions (actions speaks louder than words)  

Mr. President, I almost certain that had you shown a depth of leadership at the start of this disruption in Oct/Nov2016 by coming out and addressing the people of SC with respect and genuine concern, you may have pulled off some groundwork from these people. However, you ignored them with disdain and sent your troops to betroth them, killing, torturing, raping, arresting leaders, abducting people to be tried in military courts. Abducting a justice of the Supreme Court.

If a justice of the supreme court can be treated like Justice Ayah Paul Abine has been treated, if a lawyer like Barrister Nkongho Agbor Balla has been treated, if a renown academic can be treated like Dr. Fontem Niba has been treated, if a journalist and a popular talk-show host can be treated like Mancho Bibixy has been treated, what treatment should we expect for the ordinary man/woman in SC?

A people whose backs have been pushed against the wall, have no other option than to push back with the last energy in their body and when they fight back, they will not be fighting to stay in the Satus quo, they will fight to go to a new place, saying that any place is better than here. Therefore Mr. President, you and your government have forced the people of SC to leave and go for good.

Mr. President, we are aware of all the manipulative plans that your government has been taking to manipulate and deceive and appease the people of SC. We know that there is currently a plan in the works by the Frenchgovernment to the LRC to invest $35 Billion in the NW region, in addition to the 18km of tarred roads in the city of Bamenda, as well as the ridiculous re-opening of the Bamenda airport. We are also aware of discussions in the pipeline for large investments in the SW region. Allow me to say, Mr. President that these ridiculous investments, coming at this time, are a disdain to our people. These investments, if they become real, are a right and should have come many years ago.

Mr. President, you can kill every SCian who wants to be free but you cannot kill the spirit of freedom in the Southern Cameroonian. In addition to all the intrigues, your government has repeatedly tried to divide the people of SC with the usual NW/SW slogans. People have been offered bribes, positions and large amounts of money. This time however, due to the spirit of Southern Cameroons that is sweeping our territory, your offer was turned down. You have failed to recognize a basic lesson of life; that no one can trade their freedom for 30 pieces of silver.

Now, let me address my people, People of SC, As I said earlier, our struggle for the restoration of the independence of SC is not imposed on anyone but derived from the determined spirit of each and every SCian who desires to be free.

What does it mean to be free?The people of Southern Cameroons / Ambazonia want tobe free to:-

• send their children to schools where they are taught in English, except when they are studying another language.
• Go to the courts and practice the Common Law to common law magistrates and counsel.
• Go to hospitals and be consulted by physicians who do not need interpreters.
• Go to the police and speak to their commissioners in English
• Talk to their administrators in English
• Know the allocation of resources to their respective Counties
• Hold their leaders accountable
• Elect their Governors and State legislators

Given the choices that I have outlined for the unionist, federalism and the nationalist (freedom fighter), it is important for all SCians to know that there is no need for infighting amongst our people in spite of their different opinions. It is equally important to know that there are traitors and spies among you, who come with the sole goal to disrupt and weaken our resolve. Do not be deceived by such infiltrators. However, we must fight our enemies of this struggle. They will use all kind of means and force of argument to splinter our freedom movement. Some of them would seek to discredit your leaders at every opportunity, to source for financial assistance and impose their leadership. Many things are happening that you may not be aware of. We have to be very watchful as we carry out our mission for our enemies will spend all the resources at their disposal, to sabotage our efforts. Therefore, we shall keep our plans confidentialuntil we find the moment appropriate for us to do so. We are fortunate that our heavy contributors are the silent majority.

The Traditional Ruler of Bachou Ntai in Manyu Division of the South West Region, Senator Nfor George Tabetando Ndiepso, on Thursday, July 27, 2017, threatened to desecrate the sanctity of his tradition by kneeling and even prostrating before the population of Kumba to send their Children to school come September.

Nfor Tabetando was leading a delegation of CPDM Senators to Kumba to donate hospital equipment in the Division.

According to Tabetando, children should not be punished for sins they did not commit.  

To him, if those in positions of responsibility did not go to school, it would have been impossible for them to contribute to nation building.

He said one can only become a specialist in any field if he is educated.

The Senator parents at the occasion to be partners in the back- to- school campaign.

But many people who witnessed the traditional ruler’s action termed it as a desecration of the revered traditional institution which the Senator incarnates.

According to them, a Nfor, Nfon, Fon or Chief worth the salt, does not kneel in front of his subjects no matter the magnitude of the problem.

Among the items donated by the Senators were: simple delivery kits and hospital beds that will help to arrest the common challenge of acquired hospital infections. 

Trash cans and other hygiene and sanitation equipment were also donated.
