There's one truth that, some Francophones don't want to admit: they are not patriotic. Since the decapitation of the historic party of East Cameroon, UPC by the French, Francophone Cameroonians can't think on their own.

All they do is seldom driven by endogenous forces but exogenous. Hear their current music: un et indivisible. Borrowed from France's 5th Republic constitution put in place by dictator, General Charles De Gaulle. Decentralization, stolen or copied from France again.

The lies that the UNC/CPDM regimes have marketed to Cameroonians has been that, Ahmadou Ahidjo and John Ngu Foncha were architects of unification. The truth is that, the man who sheepishly fought for unification was John Ngu Foncha. Ahidjo only came to Foumban, when he got assurances from Paris that, Southern Cameroonians have been sold out by Britain.

Finally, how many political parties in East Cameroon had the names of German Kamerun that they now so love? Non. By contrast, in West Cameroon you had a bewildering array of parties with reference to German Kamerun: KNC, KNDP and OK, to name just these few. Next time, when an ignorant, pretentious and most often naive Francophone refers to you an an Anglophone as a secessionist, ask the naive man or woman that he/she owes you an apology.

Finally, without the Anglophones, the recent constitutional court, for which their President has populated it with Francophones won't have been a reality. We fight and die,but they reap the benefits.

AMBAZONIANS, TO WIN WE MUST SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE AND STICK TOGETHER LIKE NO ONE EVER GOT ARRESTED OR KILLED.

While I admit how painful it has been for each and every one of us in the past 3 weeks, especially families of our abducted leaders not being able to see or hear from or see our leaders, I am however, comforted to know that our leaders are alive and in with high spirit.

I urge you all to be morally strong and instead increase the pressure on the abductors of our leaders either to charge them with a crime if they committed one or set them free.

From all the audios, videos, writeups, tough questions and brilliant comments we read from all concerned Ambazonians, there should be no doubt again everyone feels the responsibility to fight hard for the release of our leaders falls squarely on our shoulders. All of us.

But no matter how encouraging this could be, we must remind ourselves that it is not every fight you must take to the boxing ring or to social media. Posting our efforts and strategies to secure the release of our leaders on social media will only help the enemy in the boxing ring, Not us.

I'm also a concerned Ambazonian like all of you out there. And even if I'm not your primary sources of information, I know I'm a credible source for information anyone could rely on. Though no one is perfect, the one thing that is perfect about me is that I'm constantly seeking for perfection. And I won't allow you to be mislead.

Remember I'm the one who first dismissed the claim that our leaders were arrested by the DSS and flawn to Yaounde, and set the record straight by stating that the ONSA (Office of National Security Adviser) arrested them and later transferred our leaders to the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Two weeks ago.

Remember also, I'm the one who first break the news to you that our leaders were abducted at the pool side bar of the hotel and their rooms searched for increaminating evidence but nothing was found to nail them.

Today again, I come to you with a message of hope and encouragement that our leaders are alive in Nigeria. No stone is being left unturned to secure their urgent and safe release. And Nigeria will release them.

I am persuaded that many of us out there will feel much better if we could just see some kind of evidence our leaders are alive and in Nigeria. Rest assured everything is being done to let you see something more convincing.

Because of the long silence of the Nigerian Government to officially claim responsibility, it is but normal that some of you started asking tough questions. And you are right to do so but dont only ask the IG, eqully call on Nigeria to release or charge our leaders.

And while you ask those tough questions, be careful at the same time not to fall for stories which are based more on speculation and opinion yet devoid of substantive facts to back them up.

I am confident that if our leaders were killed or extradited, instead of lying to you, you would rather be encouraged to take the fight to who so ever did harm them.

Be firm and persuaded therefore, that our leaders are safe and still in Nigeria for the flowing reasons:

1. Nigerian Minister of Foreign Affaires is not a liar to say they are keeping them.
2. NHCR are not liars to say they are keeping them,
3. certainly our lawyers have not lied to us that they are in Ngeria and safe
4. Certainly, the IG has not lied to us and there exist no reason what so ever for the IG to stage such an expensive lie on a very serious matter like this one.
5. And ofcourse, United Support for Peace have given us verified information that all our leaders are safe and still in Nigeria.

Now all of us should at least have some high level of comfort that even though each of the above named sources work independently of each other, they all agree on the important facts that (a) our leaders are safe and (b) they have not been extradited to Cameroon.

The time to ask questions is over. Now is time to hold accountable those who abducted our leaders. And forcefully demanding Nigeria to either release or charge our leaders (if they committed a crime) after 3 weeks of unexplained detention is our right and it's none negotiable.

Freedom is not governments' gift to the governed. It is God's gift to humanity!

No matter what, we will go to Buea. Never give up and never surrender.

Dr. David Makongo

This past ten days or more cris crossing the length and breath of the Southern Cameroon's, fighter has been raging from Kwakwa, Kombone, Mbonge, Bali,Mbengwi etc. The restoration forces of Southern Cameroon's have valiantly stood against the scouts of LA Republique Du Cameroun.
So many scouts have been slaughtered taking the regime aback, shocked and stupefied.
The regime declared war against the people of Southern Cameroon's because they thought that it was going to be as easy as good morning.
This hasn't been the case and won't ever be the case.
This morning, the attacks were raging from Mbengwi and Bali. Two security elements of LA Republique Du Cameroun were seriously wounded while thirteen BIR elements were killed in the Mbengwi attack on the BIR camp.
The attack on the Gendarmerie has led to a curfew imposed in Bali.

The entrance into Bali was cordoned off in the early hours of the morning and investigations are on going.

If there is anyone doubting, my questions are simply: Did anyone watch TV yesterday? Or did anyone read cover of some French language newspapers today?

The hosts and participants of two TV programmes yesterday, one in Yaounde and the other in Douala, exuded hatred with intoxicating analysis that will negatively stick in the brain of most Anglophones and moderate Francophones, and this to a point where, when time comes for hand washing or forgiveness, it will be difficult for Anglophones to pardon or accept their apologies.

I won't name and shame those two television stations that without shame excels in the propagation of falsehood, profanities, simply because their sponsors are those in power. But there's always something good in bad situations. The hosts and participants in both TV stations have contributed in making the world know that, Southern Cameroonian leaders in Nigeria can't be extradited to Yaounde.

How possible that in this 21st century people could go on air and call for public execution of fellow human beings and go unscathed? As for those print media celebrating, via their writing we all know their sources of finance.

But how can some Francophones call for the masacre of Anglophone Cameroonians, call them dogs and cockroaches and at the same time, call them their compatriots? Contradictory. But they are used to such gymnastics. They will denounce things in Ivory coast or Gabon, but accept them in Cameroon. Some Francophones have for too long minimise Anglophones because the second are law abiding and meek. They mistook meekness for weaknesses. Now , they are shocked and awed by the reaction of a people they considered as their slaves.

To all joyful Francophones, I have bad news for you, AyukTabe and his team among which there's a woman, Novala Bih ,won't be extradited. Do you know why? Because, there is no extradition treaty between Nigeria and Cameroon.

Finally, AyukTabe and his team were not arrested because of the dubious international Arrest Warrant, but because of other reasons whose veracity and authenticity is under review.

If you love someone, you don't wish him/her dead as I have been reading on social media or in print and electronic media.

Obama Ernest, is he the symbol of ignorance or double standards? Obama Ernest is one of the Cameroonian trained Journalist who has proven that he has no mastery of journalism ethics that sanction investigation journalism. It is scandalous for such stupidity to be expressed on Television that Ayuk Tambe has been arrested and presently in Yaoundé.

Such disgusting information is misleading and makes nonsense of such reporting. Announcing the arrest of the Interim president and his cabinet could not become so sweet to Francophones when no extradition treaties aren't signed between Nigeria and LA Republique Du Cameroun.

Furthermore the extradition of persons who are refugees in different Country, there is the need of Interpol. This audacious declaration was made on his own version of Mille Collins tagged Vision 4 Television in Yaoundé, Cameroun.

This shocked and bemused even one of his journalism lecturers, Xavier Messe. Taking people from one Country to another isn't as easy as drinking a cup of white raffia wine Cameroon is a shit of a country to allow such quacks to pass as journalist.

Pathetic, hilarious and ridiculous deification of leadership
Tchiroma thanks Biya's magnanimity for Patrice Nganang's release; dares Nganang to threaten Trump's life and see what will happen to him in America. This raises the question: is there anything that happens in Cameroon that is not at the behest, benevolence, pleasure and magnanimity of Paul Biya? Soon, people will have to tell their spouses something like: "on the very high instructions of the Head of State, we are going to make love today...."
