We, the people of Southern Cameroons, are in solidarity with our churchmen who have been falsely summoned to court by the Biya regime. We understand that the so-called “parents’ consortium” is just another evil ploy by the ruthless regime aimed at intimidating the Bishops and their confreres.
All this is happening during Eastertime when the resounding message is: “Be not afraid.” The people are not afraid of earthly kings and government, they rather fear only the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell (Cf Mtt 10:28).
I consider the systemic barbaric treatment the regime has unleashed on the Southerners so far worse than the use of chemical weapons. Yes, it is worse, because the regime has violated and trampled on the human dignity of the minority piecemeal – from the rape of young girls to shooting and killing of unarmed civilians, and now, coordinated internet blackout for weeks on end.
Additionally, the regime’s unceasing determination to torment the people of Southern Cameroons suggests bad faith, wickedness and hate.
Sad! It further indicates that the two cultures were never meant to be one and undivided as insinuated by Mr Biya; therefore, what nature has put asunder no man should put together! Consequently, we need the restoration of our statehood. This being said, there is need for a united front in initially achieving an advanced federal system of government.
I understand that independence is a pursuable option as well, but as I see it, we can better equip ourselves for independence if we take the first step, which I consider a genuine federal system after the like of Germany and the United States. There is need for all parties in the diaspora to come together for a momentous course.
Remember this Struggle is about our future. Unity is strength! Let’s keep in mind that the slightest faction in this Struggle is a weapon for the egregious regime. A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. After more than 55 years of slumber, we need a more realistic approach in achieving our goal.

This is not about separating the people, it’s impossible. This is not about what I think, feel or emote. This is about LEGAL STATE issues that are govern by law.
Our Independence in 1961 did not give us federation, It gave us a state of our own with full control by us, side by side that of LRC and this is an absolute fact with factual legal concrete document. It is the absolute minimum that we can go for.
Independence is irreversible, it can not be destroy, erase, undone, taken back, reversed, …
The biggest issue is for people to initiate and go through a psychological change so as to cleanse, purge and flush LRC off their spirit, mind and soul. This is the only issue right now.
That 55 years did not just go by like that, it has its weight on us emotionally, mentally, spiritually, socially, … and this is all right and natural. It’s going to take time to kick the conditioning out and that goes for us all.
How can my physical body get to Buea when my mind, soul, spirit are all moving to Yaounde?
Right now, all LRC is trying to do is prevent us from changing our minds, that’s it.
The one thing they don’t want us to do is TALK about it. They know that the more we talk about it, the more it become real in our people mind. The mind is what make a thing real not the external physical. The external physical is just there waiting for thing to be put into it, what ever we decide to put into it, that is exactly what is going to become real.
on one hand, LRC has absolutely no legal documents to prove we have ever been one country and on the other hand we have every legal document to prove we have never and will never be one country.
If we do not internally change our external realty will never change.

However, I totally disagree with you on Federalism.
That is the only place where your head is not correct and proves that you probably have LRC roots.
Don’t try that again
Interesting, Atem. Independence is my ultimate goal, but let’s be realistic. We know ourselves na masa. You sabi say we get for creep before we waka.
