Cameroon: Biya uses occasion to honour Indomitable lions as platform to make political gains

All those who watched the reception offered in honour of the Indomitable lions today at the unity palace will agree with Cameroon Concord that, the gangster regime is desperately trying to use this victory to make political gains.

The reception was a reunion and  English Speaking Cameroonians were surprised to see the likes of Atanga Paul Nji, Ni John Fru Ndi, Belinga Eboutou etc. These elites have been absent in the spotlight for awhile now amidst the current Anglophone crises. Ni John Fru seized the opportunity to make his voice heard again & told Biya face to face to take his responsibility as the President and solve the current crises because, one part of the country cannot be celebrating while others are being killed, arrested and deprived of internet.

There is no doubt that  Biya's speech was aimed at convincing the Anglophones about his one and indivisible theory. It was a complete failure because he doesn't yet get it right. How can he still think Southern Cameroonians in their majority will celebrate the Indomitable Lions victory?. Mr. Biya, Anglophones whom you called 'extremist' cannot be happy at this moment. Those who love soccer watched the match & wanted the Lions to win because they were a better and young team. What a contrast with the old faces we saw at the unity Palace. If only the president can listen to the cries of Southern Cameroonian youths. 60% have fled the country for greener pastures because of your bad governance Mr. President. What have you and your government done to make them feel part of your one and indivisible Cameroon. Buea was fast becoming the Silicon Valley in Cameroon where talented SC youths were making us proud like Moukanjo, Bassogog, Ondoua, Aboubakar did during the AFCON, but your government decided to frustrate them by cutting the Internet. How can they be happy with the Lions victory Mr. President?

While congratulating the Lions for a wonderful tournament, its important to condemn the regimes attempt to make political gains from this victory. Southern Cameroonians in their majority expect the regime to release all those arrested, a need for renewed round table sincere dialogue void of bad faith and especially not chaired by regime stooges. A neutral mediator should intercede this dialogue and there should be no taboo subject.
