COMMUNIQUE FROM THE SOUTHERN CAMEROONS COUNCIL IN BELGIUM

Dear honourable exco members of the Southern Cameroons Council in Belgium,
Dear Southern Cameroonians,
Ladies and Gentlemen,

Good evening,

The governing council of Belgium salutes you all.

We have all been witnesses to the prevailing state of affairs in Belgium and in our forums.

We deem it necessary at this point in time to sound this robust warning to all those propagating divisive tendencies,  insults and distractions within  our community in Belgium.

The principle of Democracy, which we dearly uphold, does not call for division, insults nor undermining the existence of other opinions. These variation of opinions must however be expressed within limits to the existence of that of others. Coexistence of these diverse opinions is necessary and constitute a solid foundation wherein our struggle must stand, in order to be successful.

It is undeniable that there is a deliberate willingness to institute some cracks in Southern Cameroons Belgium but, it is also our collective responsibility to repel such forces of darkness whose intentions are only to divide and weaken.

Bringing about unity in our struggle is the primary duty to all comrades in general, no matter your opinion or your group. Uniting all groups and opinions in Southern Cameroons Belgium has always been our main objective. This is the sole reason that motivated the name “Southern Cameroons Belgium”.  Therefore, Southern Cameroons Belgium is a unifying forum and shall be so. There should be therefore no prevalence nor the promotion of any group in Belgium. If any group must exist, there should be no competition with Southern Cameroons Belgium, but  complementarity for the sake of our struggle.

This present Interim Council of Southern Cameroon Belgium has been able to secure legalisation and registration of Southern Cameroons in Belgium. We have therefore acquired the legal capacity to carry on our activities without any interference from who ever. We reserve the right to institute legal actions against any obstruction to our proper functioning.

We wish to assure every Southern Cameroonian in Belgium that our unity cannot be tempered with. This is the reason why we have endorsed SCACUF as a group that has brought about a platform of unity for all the groups within our struggle. We have the duty not only to support but also to sustain SCACUF. In the future, we shall constitute a SCACUF secretariat. We believe all groups in Belgium and the diaspora as a whole are following this path.

We therefore take the opportunity to inform every Southern Cameroonian in Belgium about the upcoming visit of the chair person of the Governing Council who is presently our Interim President.

We are appealing to everybody to converge at the Zaventem International Airport on  Thursday the 24th of August 2017 at 7 am to give a historic welcome to the Chairperson and his delegation made of The deputy Chairperson Mr. Tassang Wilfred, The Secretary General Mr Milan Atam and the great Professor Carlson Anyangwe.

The reasons for this visit are twofold; diplomatic and fundraising. From Brussels, the delegation shall proceed to Munich Germany, only to be back in Brussels on the 30th and 31st  of  August 2017 for a town hall meeting with All Southern Cameroonians in Belgium, Holland and France.

We are expected to exhibit our cultural values of  Southern Cameroons during his welcome. All cultural dance groups in Belgium and beyond are invited to come out and dance during this event. Bring out your traditional dresses. This is the long awaited moment we have been clamouring for since our struggle ignited. You cannot afford not to be a participant to this welcome. We need to send a strong message to LRC and the world at large that we are capable of governing ourselves. The Chairman himself has instructed this.

Logistics, security and protocol services are underway for the event. A security team of minimum 20 men shall be needed. Those interested to serve in this team should contact the following comrades;
