Southern Cameroons Independence Anniversary Gift: United States’ Congress Issues Strong Resolution on the Ongoing War
In what appears to be an independence anniversary gift to Ambazonians, the United States Congress, in its 2nd Session of the 115th Congress (2017-2018), has passed a very strongly worded Resolution (House Resolution 1111), calling on the governments of French Cameroun, the Federal Republic of Ambazonia and all its citizenry to adopt nonviolent approaches to the resolution of the ongoing territorial conflict between the two sovereign nations.
The Congress Resolution which is dated October 2, 2018, was sponsored by Congress Woman Ms. Bass Karen and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. This resolution which can be described as the United States’ official policy response on the political imbroglio, is a product the comprehensive Congressional hearing on the conflict that took place on June 27, 2018, in Washington D.C.
BaretaNews presents some of the highlights of this Resolution and shows how it is an independence anniversary gift to the Ambazonian people and the quest for the complete restoration of their stolen independence.
The Congress Resolution summarily and chronologically captures all the major events that have characterized the conflict from a historical and contemporary perspective. It outlines the socio-political, economic, infrastructural, cultural and educational injuries inflicted by French Cameroun on the people of Southern Cameroons/Ambazonia.
The Congress majorly accuses the colonial regime of the extrajudicial executions, and the violation of freedoms of press, expression, and assembly. It also condemns the violent and unsustainable approaches adopted by colonial French Cameroun’s Yaoundé regime in addressing the outstanding conflicting issues.
Congress holds the colonial government responsible for upholding the rights of all citizens, regardless of political views, beliefs or regions, and urges French Cameroun colonialists to initiate a credible, good and genuine negotiations with religious and community leaders in Ambazonia to seek non-violent solutions to the conflict, including possibly involving an independent mediator in such “NEGOTIATIONS”
Apart from also calling for the strict respect for the fundamental rights of all citizens including political activists and journalists, Congress, demands that ALL Ambazonians arrested and illegally detained within the context of the conflict be promptly charge or released.
These include the famous 47 activists forcibly sent back to French Cameroun from Nigeria, of whom were mostly asylum seekers and considering that the act goes contrary to International law and conventions to which French Cameroun is a signatory.
How the Congress Resolution is an Independence Anniversary gift to Ambazonia.
This Resolution is coming from the US Congress, the legislature of the most powerful nation and a major contributor to the international political system, one day after the independence anniversary of the Southern Cameroons. This is certainly not a diplomatic coincidence but the fruits of the targeted diplomacy, international lobbying, self-defense actions and the Social Media activism of all committed Ambazonian revolutionaries.
The legislator’s intentional use of the word “CONFLICT” and not just “crisis” and the emphasis on the word “NEGOTIATIONS” and not “dialogue” “including a possible involvement of an Independent Mediator in such NEGOTIATIONS” give credit to the Ambazonian revolutionary course.
This is because, the words “crisis” and “dialogue” in conflict resolution are used to address issues relating to internal misunderstandings within a sovereign nation. Negotiations only come after a war between the two conflicting parties, and in this case the two sovereign nations of French Cameroun and Southern Cameroons.
From the preamble of the Resolution, U.S Congress, acknowledges the fact that the current conflict is a war between French Cameroun and Ambazonia, rooted in history and international law and so, only negotians in the presence of an Independent Mediator can bring a sustainable solution.
There is no way the colonial and blood sucking Yaoundé regime can enter into negotiations with the people of Southern Cameroons without the issue of total decolonization of the Southern Cameroons territory on the table. Negotiations on the root causes of the war shall be anchored on history and international law which are all in favour of the Ambazonian people. That is why the colonialists have been afraid of the so-called dialogue in the first place and had resorted to the use of force.
The innocent Ambazonians and the gallant restoration forces whose blood has been spilled for the past two years could not have died for a mere decentralization or Federal system of government. That will be ridiculous to their restless spirits. The gallant restoration forces currently fighting in the jungles across Ambazonia are not fighting for some decentralization or federal system of government. They are fighting for the total restoration of the independence of the sovereign State of Ambazonia, recognized by international law with well-defined and historically traced boundaries known to all international diplomatic institutions.
Consequently, any decision that will NOT be in tandem with the general will of the people (total Independence) and rooted in the legality of the conflict, shall not be accepted by the Ambazonian people. The colonial regime has the time now when tempers have not reached a crescendo to negotiate the terms of separation with the Ambazonian revolutionary leadership and get a moderate reparation for the damages caused on the people of Southern Cameroons for 57 years.
If not, they should be ready to give way for an international intervention championed by the United States and largely approved by Ambazonians in which she (French Cameroun) will have to pay a higher reparation for the war crimes and economic rape of Ambazonia for more than half a century.

@Shillah you are just a nonentity french Cameroonian illiterate to insult Ambazonians!,your french Cameroon is a dictatorship dirty slum,embarrassing country, you have no simple clean drinkable water in 58 years of your so call fake independence yet two unpatriotic,regressive, oppressed french puppet dictators ahidjo/ biya controls your slave lives? you have no human right freedom in your shithole unpatriotic french Cameroon yet you can come here and write stupidity in this great Bareta Ambazonian platform? learn your African history illiterate!colonial France slave!
Stupid frenchee nigga, what do you know?
Very nice gift.
there is nothing more maddening than debating someone who does not know history,does not read books and frames their myopia as virtue.the level of unapologetic conjecture i see these iquanas who dont know history throw their tantrum here lately is not only frustrating,it is retrogressive,unprecedented and absolutely terrifying
Clearly the resolution falls far short of addressing the lexical and conceptual semantics of 1961 (“…achieve independence by joining…”) that is the root cause of the ongoing crisis. Either congressional committee members are not well informed or they have deliberately crafted a glossy report that justifies the hearing held back in June.
I will hesitate at titillating this congressional piece as an independence day gift to Ambazonians especially as the report flagellates both sides.
As is widely quoted, “If you want something done right, do it yourself”. Therefore we Ambazonians will have to liberate ourselves from 57 years of bondage by continuing the fight until victory in Buea. Believe me, Biya knows no other language.
BARETALIAR AT IT AGAIN, CAMEROON HAVE ALREADY STARTED DIALOGUE BUT WITH WHO? TERRORRISTS? ALSO U SAID THOSE PEOPLE ARRESTED SHOULD GO TO COURT OR RELEASE YES..THEY WILL GO TO COURT AND GET LIFE SENTENCE THEY DESERVE.
YOU KEEP YELLING GIFT AND SCREAMING VICTORY, AMBAZOZO FAKE STATE. AMBAZONIA NEVER EXISTED BEFORE TO HAVE INDEPENDANCE, WHAT WAS YOUR FLAG, ANTHEM, PRESIDENT IN 1961? IDIOTS CAMEROON JUST TOOK BACK ONE PART OF HIS TERRITORY, AND WE ARE CREATING A LOBBY TO CLAIM THE NORTHERN CAMEROON NIGERIA TOOK FROM US.
Aftet 5 years of fighting im gonna see how much fundraising you gonna get from diaspora to finance your hunting guns
Stupid frenchee nigga,with retarded brains what do you know?
We should make no mistake that we cannot at any time be complacent. Talk is cheap, so we must be ever determine to prosecute this fight to its logical end. The world is beginning to take interest in us because we have refuse to be bullied into submission by this slave to the french leeches called Biya. They taught the play book from the french leeches on how to massacre Africans fighting for their rights like the Bamelike and Bassa that was perfected with semengue will easily be duplicated in Ambazonia. To their greatest chagrin, the Beti/Bulu/Ewondo criminals cannot comprehend why the two cubs of sugar has not only refuse to melt, but is instead gallantly putting up a fierce resistance.
well done to all the dedicated patriotic Ambazonians for a very good initiative by the US congress,only the millions of patriotic Amabzonians can free themselves completely from french Cameroon by continuous heavy self defense because the biya regime is ignoring all world treaties,Laws and world peace to please his France master, Ambazonia is not part of the beggars,slum french Cameroon,they are breaking away completely this time from underdevelopment,primitiveness, Ambazonia will be develop into a 21st century country,french Cameroon is being exposed negatively in world medias,the pressure is building against the biya dictatorship, butcher government, it is cracking underneath already,therefore Ambazonains self defense must continue to grow stronger with generous funding, continue to make the SW/NW regions ungovernable,combat those lrc terrorist forces fiercely,biya’s war money will soon run out, no country will give him war loans,he will not be able to pay the army, foreign mercenaries,and civil servants, then his french Cameroon will crumble,patriotic Ambazonians in this revolution will do all it takes to gain full Independence! no federalism or decentalisation will be accepted after biyas killings, burning of villages they never built, refugee sufferings,unlawful abductions,and the fact that they are exploiting A,bazonians resources freely then oppressing them,they will take back all their resources from french Cameroon by force and war, no turning back this time!all the lrc military, France and other Africa mercenaries will never win the people’s and God’s war!
