ACT in Southern Cameroons, Ambazonia Consultation

The SCAC is an internationally mentored and supported effort by various Ambazonian Independentist entities to coalesce the plethora of conference initiatives into one logical inclusive conference of Ambazonians.

Unlike the SCPC the conference that should accrue from the SCAC will be one for independentist entities by design.

ACT entities believe in Ambazonian independence and would concentrate on coalescing Ambazonian groups. At the very least SCAC will boast transparency in being upfront about the Ambazonian Coalition’s unity on the common purpose -independence.

Given that La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun still needs to be convinced to come to the table Ambazonia News believes that any Ambazonia-side concessions such as might be interpreted from the vague phrase “peace and justice” plays straight into La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun’s game plan of offering a “special status” and waiting to continue the assimilation attempt, to which their President confessed. Ambazonians should rely on the righteousness of their cause and ignore what is not even a promise of a negotiation but the trick of dangling the threat of “missing the opportunity to negotiate” – with a party which has chickened out of two negotiation opportunities! They have disowned the Swiss Process with a flimsy excuse that the old dictator had managed to hold off international sanctions by semi-engaging in the process. They then provided the counter-argument themselves by attending the Canada pre-talks before, again disowning them in a more desperately clumsy way by having a public spat with the head of Global Affairs Canada! In spite of the diplomatic faux pas sources close to the pre-talks have not definitively given up on the the idea of an eventual Canadian mediation, hence, for instance the previous play on the idea of “preparing for a referendum” by some Southern Cameroons entities – as distinct from Ambazonian Independentists, who while accepting the idea of a referendum, see it as a remote future prospect to come only after the [Ambazonian Independentists] have “dragged La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun to the negotiation table”.

At Ambazonia News we believe that the threat Ambazonia faces is that of letting our Liberation Struggle lose momentum and collapse while we foolishly fall for the trick of being secluded in a talking shop to the exclusion of what progressed Ambazonia this far – a hostile environment for La Rรฉpublique and her allies of the fifth column or foreign interests on our land.

Ambazonia News encourages all Ambazonians to join the Consultation to ensure our future is based on their voices.

ACT -Team Ambazonia

Ambazonian Flag

Ambazonia Coalition Team is a gathering of many Ambazonian Independentist entities who first coalesced in the run-up to the “Swiss Process”. They were “approached” as representative body of Ambazonian entities to talk with when the heat persuaded La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun to dip her toe in a potential negotiation process. ACT was the Ambazonian side in the Swiss Process, gaining valuable experience and diplomatic contacts; and again took part in the Canada Pre-talks

Ambazonia News is profiling ACT in  sequence intended to publicize its existence, objectives, membership and its potential role in the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle.

Ambazonia News will be open to, indeed relying on, the experience of founder members and functionaries of ACT. If any of you, members of ACT, are contacted please be generous with your time and experience as Ambazonia needs you! Even if you are not explicitly contacted, Ambazonia News would welcome any clarifications and details that you wish to submit in comments.

The founding groups in ACT included APLM, SCADEF, MoRISC, IG, SCNC, SCARM, RoAN, SCAPO, ARF… all committed independentists. There are also a several independent individual members including residents of G0 and G1.

ACT is a very useful open channel to all the member groups and exactly the group which has fostered a unity of purpose without announcing it. This happened naturally for despite the fallacy of lack of unity, the Coalition carries out regular weekly meetings which ensure ideas are exchanged efficiently and productively. ACT has even on occasion brought together all the major Ambazonian entities in its fireside chats.

When La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun’s aims in both the Swiss Process and Canada facilitated Pre-talks are considered it can only be said that ACT won both rounds. In each case La Rรฉpublique du Cameroun played for time hoping that the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle would slow down, then making the plea to the facilitators that they wished to deal on the basis of an internal crisis, hence through the failed national dialogue, both times thanks to the vastly undervalued ACT setup, Ambazonian resolve held firm on the objective of independence.

Other independentist entities are always welcome to join ACT where the experience exists if dealing with the two mentioned international partners as well as others, well apart from Swiss and Canada.

The text of the Presidential Executive Order for ARF+

Ambazonian Flag

As promised the text of the PEO is now available to download for reference.

For a long time the IG has applied the Building-Bridges Protocol to support all restoration forces in G0 without requiring any acknowledgement from any of them. The only requirement had been, in the obvious case of ground forces, that they have proven and provable records of fighting the enemy.

The current PEO formalizes and recognizes this process by designating qualified forces as ARF+. They will not need to announce or show any outward signs than their integrity and professionalism in discharging their noble tasks with reliance on the blessings of our ancestors.

They, ARF+, shall rely on our people in their own Building-Bridges attitudes, humbly protecting our people with the same humility and selfless daring that will ensure dignity and self-esteem for our nation.

They, ARF+, shall instil pride and be the pride of our nation by holding the line on integrity, dignity and self-respect that will allow our people to finalize the decolonisation. They shall not intimidate or disrespect our people in any way reminiscent of the colonial functionaries and occupiers. Instead through their actions and comportment they shall inspire our people, their ultimate only reward being the satisfaction of seeing the smiles on the faces of our people as ARF+ shall only be daring and discrete.

They, ARF+, shall not tolerate any indignities inflicted on our people from any authors. They shall be rewarded ultimately with seeing our children be like the stars above.

ARF+ shall prevail as Ambazonia shall prevail. The Most High God is the Watchman of Ambazonia.

The PEO text is available here, as it is on the government repository.

Presidential Executive Order details Building-Bridges mindset for ARF

Ambazonian Flag

President Marianta Njomia has issued orders to ensure that ARF can collaborate with other self-defence and restoration forces on the ground, G0. ARF+ shall henceforth denote the combination of ARF and other forces meeting the Building-Bridges criteria.

Stand by for the document of the Presidential Executive Order…

Ambazonia shall prevail as The Most High God remains the Watchman of our nation.

SCPC – What will come of the scpc?

Ambazonian Flag

The scpc is said to be an opportunity for all Southern Cameroonians to demonstrate a unity of purpose in an inclusive gathering.

Ambazonia News has already questioned the meaning of the unity of purpose given than scpc seems to be going out of its way to make concessions even before the conference itself, never mind the remote possibility of LRC coming to the table.

Whatever the outcome of the SCPC Ambazonia will prevail as we all know Ambazonia has risen to fall no more. However Ambazonia News invites members of the organising committee to imagine what will happen on the morrow of the conference.

Assuming the best happens and the delegates somehow demonstrate a unity of purpose what is going to compel LRC to come to the table. Are there any indications that LRC is poised to engage in negotiations if only Ambazonians would demonstrate a unity of purpose?

The answer is no. Ambazonia News can safely conclude no by observing the activities of the fifth column in Ambazonia. On 11th August 2023 the “PM, Head of Gov’t” of LRC was in our capital city “to review the implementations of the recommendations” of the do-called GND.

During the same week another fifth columnist reached for the imaginary division between the people from the north of Ambazonia and their fellow countrymen from the south of Ambazonia. He lamented the take over of the bushes as well as โ€œthe order from abroad”, all without any hint of irony in a county which has handed over a while commercial city to the foreigners from LRC along with the power of life and death to foreigners who tauntingly call themselves “chefs de terre”. He did not consider the multitude of orders from abroad which have resulted in burnt homes, murdered school children in morning school-run traffic, murder pregnant women and children, murdered Ambazonian youths merely suspected of being “separatists” even when those murders are proudly announced as “neutralisations”.

As is common with all fifth columnists all the words could be repeated to describe the actions of their foreign patrons. Their time is looming. It is only getting clearer who the collaborating enablers are in Ambazonia.

These activities belie any idea that the conclusion of the SCPC, even if it manages to “demonstrate a unity of purpose”, would bring “justice and peace” in any form. It certainly couldn’t bring Ambazonian Independence, which to be fair is not an apparent aim of the SCPC.

What then is the purpose of the SCPC and do all the participants really subscribe to that purpose? Is their jaunt to Canada a value for money action to advance the righteous Ambazonian cause?

Ambazonia News implores the stakeholders to reflect on their actions. Posterity will and we must all hope that the assessment will be positive.

The Most High God is our Watchman in Ambazonia.

SCPC: Security for G0 attendees?

Ambazonian Flag

Ambazonia News continues the sequence on the Southern Cameroons People’s Conference by looking at the issue of security for G0 attendees. Earlier during the build up in the era of the Southern Cameroons Stakeholder Platform several venues were considered with an eye on security and in view of the fate of the Nera 10, the core of the IG who were abducted and illegally rendered from Nigeria. At the time Ghana was suggested as a safer location.

There seemed to be a focus on the immediate danger of being abducted then, and now, moving the venue to Canada would appear to be on a similar narrow basis.  What Ambazonia News would like the organising committee to consider is what happens when any G0 participants return to occupied Ambazonia.  Can they attend and return to Ambazonia without consequences, quite apart from the costs?

Mention must be made of Abdul Karim Ali who is now in arbitrary detention merely for being part of Ambazonian Collaboration Team. He is entering his second year and there has not been an outcry from the international community, whose approval is presumably being sought through the demonstration of “unity of purpose”, towards which, the SCPC is geared. Just to be clear, the danger for any credible independentist participants from ground zero would not be abduction but that they could be rounded up at LRC’s convenience hence it would be somewhat callous, if not reckless, of Conference to simply assume

SCPC also promises a seat for representatives of Ambazonian prisoners. Ambazonia News would be wary of exposing them to reprisals especially while they are captives of LRC.

Ambazonia will prevail. Whatever comes from the SCPC, should not significantly affect the fact of Ambazonian Independence.

The Most High God is our Watchman and our faith will see us through .

SCPC – updates; some signatories unaware and not content.

Ambazonian Flag

When Ambazonia News reported the plan for the SCPC in Canada from 5th October to 8th October 2023, several aspects were/are unclear and unresolved in our minds. We raised those questions and invited participating members of the SCPC Organising Committee to comment to clarify. We also proposed to issue our own op-ed on each of the questions, the main aim being to provoke the participants to reflect properly and confidently on all aspects of the SCPC.

Ambazonia News can now report that at least two of the signatories of the document about the All Ambazonia Conference 2023 which, presumably evolved to the SCPC, have expressed reservations about the use of their signatures on the SCPC web site. As a minimum, they were unaware, having changed their views about some of the evolution and the parties involved in the SCPC setup. Of paramount importance among the reservations was the realisation that some of the key players in SCPC were opaque, that is not listed as participants, and non-independentists, that is having chosen “neutral” as their posture on the question of Ambazonian Independence from La Republique du Cameroun.

Ambazonia News has mentioned a self-declared “neutral” NGO which is deeply involved. The big question would be whether any Ambazonian entity could reasonably declare itself neutral even to an Ambazonian audience and still be entrusted with aspects of developing a unity of purpose.

As separate statements are expected from the aggrieved parties Ambazonia News is reserving the responses until they can be published unredacted.

We are still open to views and opinions from all the participating entities. All that Ambazonia News would expect is that they declare whether they are independentist and whether they are content for the SCPC to exclude that word from all of its publicity.

Ambazonia has risen and never to fall.
