Ambazonia Interim Gov’t calls on the UN and the AU to support the creation of an International Fact Finding Mission 0

Fellow Southern Cameroonians and allies throughout the world,

As many of you know, President Paul Biya of La République du Cameroun addressed his people on Tuesday the 10th of September, 2019 — and in so doing confirmed the widely held perception of his total lack of interest in finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict with Ambazonia.

For the millions of our people and foreign observers who do not know what to make of the situation — in the face of constant bombardment with sleek, well packaged propaganda driven by thinly veiled neo-colonial interests — I want to tell you today with full confidence: fret not! and do not be confused by the noise from some quarters about this being the end of our revolution.

Here are your two signposts for understanding how these things shall proceed:

  1. President Sisiku Ayuk Tabe and our leaders behind bars are the LEADERS OF OUR NEGOTIATIONS TEAM. If anyone holds consultations about negotiating, mediation, negotiation capacity building, negotiation testing, or whatever else related to negotiation in any way form or shape, they will have to take it up with President Sisiku Ayuk Tabe and his team behind bars or it will amount to NOTHING.
  2. The standard framework for building trust to end all modern conflicts is accountability as expressed by the parties allowing for an International Independent Fact Finding Mission, to establish a single set of facts on which the said conflict resolution will be centered. Mr. António Guterres of the UN and Moussa Faki Mahamat of the African Union should promote credible dialogue in this conflict by using their offices to publicly call for the United Nations to establish an International Independent Fact Finding Mission for this conflict.

Anything that ignores these two fundamental pillars for us, as President Sisiku AyukTabe and our leaders behind bars so succinctly put, “is a non-event and a non-starter.”

As far as the Southern Cameroonians – Ambazonian people are concerned, this time it shall be “Total Independence or Resistance Forever!”

God Bless the Federal Republic of Ambazonia.

Dabney Yerima Vice President

Federal Republic of Ambazonia
