In a previous post we promised to post the CC’s Crisis plan for Ambazonia [ and La République Citizens] in the [imminent] event a downward spiral in La République du Cameroun.
Since that post, there have been more pointers from La République du Cameroun.
There are now at least two videos of deliberately recorded footage by La République du Cameroun’s “Secret Services” torturing people who are in no way political threats to Mr Biya; and posted on social media. This could be some inept attempt to instil fear in the populace but, if so, it only shows that the regime has nothing to lose. If that is not the aim, it would indicate, rather further confirm the regime’s increasing loss of control over its machinery.
In Mr Biya’s home region, there was open talk of a “federal state” in the Region du Sud where protesters complained about the shenanigans of Mr Biya’s close circle. In a state built on tribalistic actions this can only be an alarming indicator of the descent to chaos that the CC’s feared as they set about drawing up the Crisis Plan.
There is also anecdotal evidence that Mr Biya’s chefs de terre are profiling citizens in their areas since one of them has reportedly requested locals to report any “strangers”. “Allogenes” is actually a term in the lexicon of the so-called “les gouvernants” of La République du Cameroun. This is the word used to distinguish people “not from this tribal area”, used by the same people whose rhetoric includes phrases like “any Camerounian should be at home anywhere in Cameroun”.
Since the start of the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle the vast majority of people who would be quickly tagged as allogenes would be the so-called internally displaced – the people who have escaped the violence in Ambazonia and sought temporary “refuge” in La République du Cameroun.
Ambazonia News hopes the plan never gains any use and that the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle comes to be resolved through negotiation, but our aim is that, should the needs arise, all those caught up in any crisis would have had some forethought and would act in a more measured, considered and inherently safer way to mitigate any risks to their physical safety.
Read the very rough draft here – we will endeavour to post any further refinements of the plan.
