The Ambazonia Vice President Dabney Yerima has condemned the burial of innocent Southern Cameroonian civilians killed by the French Cameroun military without family consent as “completely unacceptable.”

Southern Cameroonian families have incessantly been flashing out signals to the Biya regime to return the bodies of Ambazonia activists killed in detention centers in Douala and Yaoundé, but the Francophone authorities buried them without any permission.

Comrade Dabney Yerima said in a statement on Tuesday that the Ambazonia Interim Government (IG) had received several calls from Southern Cameroons families in Ground Zero asking the IG to raise the issue with the European Union.

The exiled Ambazonia leader pointed out that those depriving Southern Cameroons families the possibility of burying their sons in accordance with their wish will face justice at the International Criminal Court.

Some few months ago, French Cameroun government forces raided the Bafut Fon’s palace in the Northern zone city of Bamenda, which has been under a military siege for almost three years.

The French Cameroun army killed at least five palace guards, wounded dozens and arrested scores of people during the crackdown.

Prime Minister Dion Ngute and French Cameroon cabinet ministers have reportedly confirmed Cameroon Concord News Group’s prediction on the death of President Paul Biya in 2020.

The low-energy prime minister and head of government who is still having challenges to stamp his authority on his own government, travelled to the country’s West region accompanied by his entire cabinet for a state-sponsored funeral ceremony that was held in honour of the victims of the recent Baffoussam landslide.

Cameroon Concord News Group had announced last month that the 86-year-old head of state, who conducts himself as a monarch, would check out in 2020. This was confirmed during the Baffoussam event. Prime Minister Dion Ngute and his cabinet seemed to be relaying the Cameroon Concord News Group’s message when they displayed Biya’s portrait on a coffin bearing the Cameroon flag; something that is usually done when senior officials of the corrupt government pass away.

President Biya usually mocks frequent rumours of his death, saying those who wish his death must wait for 20 more years. But with age taking its toll, he has been maintaining a kind of deliberate and radio silence over the latest predictions about his demise and this is no good news to his collaborators who are using him to enrich themselves.

The eminence of his death has been put on display at the Paris Peace Forum where the Yaounde strong man has been making a mockery of himself. While being received at the Elysee Palace by French President, Emmanuel Macron, Mr. Biya demonstrated that the spring in his step were completely worn out.

While Macron was making giant strides to meet Mr. Biya, the Yaounde dictator could only shuffle along. Age and alcohol have taken their toll. The once vibrant and flamboyant dictator is clearly on the wrong side of age. The signs of senile decade are obvious and many including his family are concerned, especially as he has been a colony of diseases for many years.

The French Cameroun regime in Yaoundé has arrested dozens of Southern Cameroons activists in Mezam, Fako, Ndian, Manyu, Kupe Muanenguba and Bui counties some few months after sentencing the Ambazonia leader President Sisiku Ayuk Tabe and his top aides to life in prison. 

Many of the Southern Cameroons citizens arrested have been moved to detention facilities in French Cameroun local Ambazonia media reported.

A French Cameroun state counsel who issued the recent arrest orders on Saturday was quoted as saying that the Southern Cameroonians were aiding separatists’ fighters.

Last week, 13 Southern Cameroonians civilians including a prominent Pentecostal pastor were again arrested in the Akwaya sub constituency in Manyu after a Francophone military commander ordered the magistrate to overturn a previous acquittal.

In a situation described by the International Crisis Group as a travesty of justice, the Biya regime has secretly barred members of the Cameroon Anglophone Civil Society Consortium from running in parliamentary and municipal elections coming up early next year.

The ruling CPDM crime syndicate has maintained a heavy-handed crackdown on Southern Cameroons protests since the so-called one and indivisible Cameroon was hit by an anti-French Cameroun uprising in 2017.

France and the President Buhari administration in the Federal Republic of Nigeria have been helping Yaoundé in the crackdown. So far more than 20,000 Southern Cameroonians have been killed and thousands of others are in jails.

Four Southern Cameroons Self Defense Forces suspected of murdering a French Cameroun officer were reportedly captured on Monday in Muyuka in the Fako County, according to a source deep within the French Cameroun colonial administration in Southern Cameroons.

Local media reported that the Ambazonia Restoration Forces were ambushed and arrested in their camp by the French Cameroun military that also seized their weapons. Yaoundé observed that the operation was successful thanks to the collaboration of the Southern Cameroons public.

The French Cameroun serviceman Jean Noel Ndongo was arrested by the Ambazonia Restoration Forces and some reports suggested that he was then buried alive in Muyuka last week.

The murder of the French Cameroun soldier was widely condemned East of the Moungo River after the Restoration Forces filmed the gruesome act and posted the video online.

More than 300 government security force members have been killed since an armed conflict started in Southern Cameroons in 2017, according to the French Cameroun army.

Troops loyal to the Biya Francophone regime backed by tanks have been deployed on the streets of the nation’s capital Yaoundé with others around the presidential palace, state radio and television today morning as rumours of a coup attempt spread after the 86 year old dictator travelled to Paris, France.

The government has not commented on the recent deployment around the palace of President Paul Biya but Cameroon Intelligence Report sources say the decision is to prepare for a counter offensive.

All the armed forces in French Cameroun including the elite force known as the Rapid Intervention Battalion (BIR) in a country – which has seen only one attempted coup since independence are on top alert.  

Several people around Etoudi and Poste Centrale have remained indoors as soldiers and tanks moved into place. But many people are still going about their daily activities causing traffic jams.

Paul Biya continues to kill to stay in power, cheered on by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.  Both Biya and his UN acolyte Guterres are set to meet in Paris tomorrow Wednesday the 13th of November.

The exiled leader of the Southern Cameroons Interim Government Vice President Dabney Yerima has warned Yaoundé about the consequences of its ongoing genocidal campaign and aggression against the people of the Federal Republic of Ambazonia.

According to a statement by the Ambazonia Vice President, Comrade Dabney Yerima stressed the fact that both the so-called special status for British Southern Cameroons and French Cameroun’s military option have miserably failed to advance Yaounde’s policies in Ambazonia.

Dabney Yerima also urged an end to the conflict and the withdrawal of all French Cameroun forces from Southern Cameroons, while calling for an international solution to the more than three years of the bloody war the regime in Yaoundé imposed on Southern Cameroonians.

The UN has persistently turned a blind eye on the atrocities being committed by soldiers loyal to the regime in French Cameroun as Paul Biya continues to kill to stay in power, cheered on by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.  Now, the two men are set to meet in Paris tomorrow Wednesday the 13^th of November.

French Cameroun with the support of the French government and the corrupt cartel in the Federal Republic of Nigeria headed by President Buhari launched the devastating campaign against the people of Southern Cameroons, with the goal of stifling the Southern Cameroons resistance and quest for an independent state.

The government of President Emmanuel Macron has reportedly deployed French Special Forces with criminal records in the Sahel region to help French Cameroun troops in the war in Southern Cameroons.

The Southern Cameroons Interim Government estimates that the war has claimed more than 20,000 lives so far. The conflict has also taken a heavy toll on Southern Cameroons’s infrastructure, destroying hospitals and schools. The UN says over 4 million Southern Cameroonians are in dire need of humanitarian aid.

French Cameroun dictator popularly known as “the monarch” and his wife Chantal Biya arrived France on Sunday 10 November 2019 to attend the Paris Peace Forum, scheduled to hold from 11 to 13 November 2019.

The French surrogate shied away from the Russia-Africa Summit that held at Sochi but is already in the French capital Paris barely a few weeks after he attended the Global Fund’s Sixth Replenishment Conference to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, from 9 to 10 October 2019 in Lyon, France.

French authorities are indeed conscious of the primordial role the butcher of Yaoundé is playing in the CEMAC region in guaranteeing France’s grip on the natural resources of the countries within the sub Saharan region.

State media reported that Biya landed at the Bouget airport in Paris at about 6 pm and was received by the French Cameroun’s Ambassador to France Alfred NGUINI. The 86 year old leader later on checked in at his hotel of residence in the First District of Paris, where he was greeted by huge demonstration staged by French speaking Cameroonians who demanded an arrest warrant for the failed leader.

The Paris Peace Forum is an occasion for world leaders to reflect on global issues related to peace, climate change, human and social development in view of identifying solutions that can foster harmonious development strategies. The opening ceremony will take place on Tuesday 12 November 2019.

Katherine Ekema, the wife of the former Mayor of Buea, Patrick Ekema, is in total confusion in the United States. Ms. Ekema who is living in Minnesota in the United States is faced with two major challenging situations.

For years, Katherine Ekema and his reckless husband, Patrick Ekema, had been using the Buea City Council account as their personal ATM. Patrick Ekema had shipped his wife and five children to the United States as threats by the Ambazonian fighters increased by the day, especially as Patrick Ekema himself became a millstone stone around the necks of local traders who were also being called upon by the Ambazonian fighters to respect calls for ghost towns.

The unpopular mayor, who died of a massive heart attack a few weeks ago, used to underwrite his family’s reckless lifestyle from Buea, though his monthly salary was only USD600. Having a huge family in the United States requires significant amounts of resources, and this could be very challenging for someone with a paltry salary like Patrick Ekema. It is even worse as his family did not have access to any financial assistance from the American government. The Ekemas have just recently sought asylum and do not have work permits.

Besides housing and feeding the family in the United States, Patrick Ekema also had to finance the studies of the first two children in a community college. These children were paying foreign student fees and only God alone knew where Patrick Ekema was getting all the money to finance their studies. The Buea City Council certainly must audit its records if it really wants to know the extent to which Patrick Ekema had looted its coffers.

The next issue is Katherine’s trip to Buea to bury her notorious and reckless husband who died of a massive heart attack in another lady’s house in Douala. Katherine does not have papers in the United States. She has just sought asylum, claiming that her life and that of her five children were at risk. The American immigration systems allows any and everybody to seek asylum, but Americans also have agents who will have to verify the veracity of her claim.

Research officers at the U.S. embassy in Yaounde have already established a report on her case. They know her husband was a brutal administrator who worked in the interest of the dictatorial regime in Yaounde. She cannot be talking of persecution by a system that gave her more privileges than any ordinary Cameroonian could have.

While obtaining papers remains a tough challenge for her, her immediate problem now is to go home and giver her husband a befitting burial. Without proper travel documents she cannot leave the United States. Even with proper documents, she might not travel to Cameroon without consequences. Landing in Cameroon will simply imply that she has invalidated her asylum claim and has opted not to return to the United States.

Our source in Minnesota has said that she is trying to obtain guarantees from the Cameroon government that she would be able to return to the U.S. if she went home to bury her husband. But the beleaguered Yaounde government does not control American immigration policy. The American rule is clear. If she leaves, she will not return as her trip out of America will be a death sentence to her asylum claim.  

Patrick Ekema has not only died, he has brought untold hardship onto his family. He has also taken with him, the ATM that used to ensure a good life for his family. The free and easy money that was available to Katherine and her five children has melted. The massive heart attack that brought down Patrick Ekema has also damaged Katherine’s hopes for a beautiful easy life.

She will now start thinking of getting a job in the U.S. and her best bet will be heading to MacDonald’s where she will be sure of a minimum wage. But a minimum wage in the U.S. will not enable her to grant her children a decent life. She must start thinking of returning to school to give herself better chances at life.

Her former status as the wife of a mayor has simply stopped to exist. She must come down her fake pedestal to face life the way it should be faced. She must come down her ivory tower if she really wants to sort things out for her children. If she is still stuck in her past mentality, then she is willing to prolong her confusion and agony.

Cameroon government forces loyal to the regime in Yaoundé have withdrawn from their isolated positions at the banks of the Manyu River exposed to Ambazonia Restoration Forces attacks. The troops including elements of the French Cameroun gendarmerie have now regroup in stronger places in Mamfe town after the very deadly attack from the Manyu Ghost Warriors.

This decision reportedly ordered from Yaoundé has already been implemented throughout the Manyu County and Cameroon Intelligence Report understands other withdrawals from Ekok in Eyumojock and Tinta in Akwaya will follow soonest.

French Cameroun troops deployed to Manyu, suffered an attack recently that claimed the lives of 5 soldiers according to Cameroun government sources in Mamfe.

A statement from the Ambazonia Security Council that confirmed the attack hinted that it was carried out by what the Southern Cameroons Homeland Security Department codenamed as The Seals Team 2 of Manyu RFs aka Ghost Warriors.

The mayor of Mamfe John Ayuk Takunchong who recently held a public meeting grouping okader riders and boasted that the Manyu County was under the command and control of the Yaoundé regime has moved his family to an unknown destination in Douala.

The Interim Government says there are several mass graves in three Southern Cameroons Counties with remains of scores of innocent Ambazonia civilians killed by the French Cameroun army deployed to Southern Cameroons.

Vice President Dabney Yerima, told Cameroon Concord News Group correspondent in Germany late on Sunday that the forest and massive grass field areas in Menchum, Manyu and Ndian are harboring mass graves. The Ambazonia exiled leader noted that any peace process with French Cameroun would require an internationally supervised process of the exhumation of the mass graves.

Comrade Dabney Yerima added that the Ambazonia Interim Government is working with Southern Cameroons Restoration Forces in Ground Zero to establish the locations of other mass graves in Mezam, Lebialem and Bui Counties.

The victims whose bodies were found in mass graves in Menchum, Bui and Manyu were killed by Cameroon government troops under the direct supervision of President Paul Biya.  

The jailed Ambazonia leader President Sisiku Ayuk Tabe told the Paris-based Jeune Afrique that some 20,000 Southern Cameroons civilians have been systematically executed by the Biya Francophone Beti Ewondo regime. Hundreds were purportedly taken from Kumba, the chief city in the Meme County to rural areas like Ekiliwindi and Konye, where they were killed and buried en masse.

The Biya genocidal campaign is on-going and involves several phases ever since the beginning of the Southern Cameroons resistance. Vice President Dabney Yerima has appealed to religious leaders and local witnesses to help the Ambazonia Interim Government uncover graves containing bodies of Southern Cameroonians killed by troops loyal to the regime in Yaoundé.
