The people of the Southern Cameroons have shown considerable restrain in their dealings with La Republique du Cameroun even in the face of overwhelming force, shear oppression and arrogance. We have demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt our commitment to democratic alteration of power and to constitutional process of change. During the 50s, our people showed Africa and the world the first African example of peaceful transfer of power when Foncha assumed power after having defeated Endeley in a free and fair elections. The period of transition was equally peaceful and demonstrated democratic maturity new to the continent. Even after the democratic process was aborted by the British betrayal, our people continued in their peaceful and non-violent quest for change. The result of this peaceful means of change was the destruction of our institutions, assasination of our leaders who refused to play by the rules of the occupier, the instutition of fear to bend the others and a slow process of the destruction, pillaging and complete annexation of our land.

The world has been made to know that "Cameroon is a peaceful Country". This peace has been so, simply because only one side in the conflict is armed. Only one side can pull the trigger, impose its will by the use of force. We were educated to be peaceful and respect others not base on their origin but the content of their character. We were educated to respect the will of the people.This education has made every instruction to change our approach different.

Forty years after our betrayal and subjugation, our people descended one's more on the street in a peaceful attempt to force the return to legality. Despite the dogs of war that were ammassed in our territory, our people were peaceful in their demand for change. They prefered the ballot rather than the bullet. We grounded the territory in almost one year of peaceful civil disobedience, boycott, demonstrations and all forms of peaceful resistance. Nothing change! Once the regime realised the threat of force in the defence of our people and their right was off the table, it multiplied its brutality. It doubled the payroll of the military, recruited and promoted more armed men from its area and disarmed and displaced our people in the military.

We have petitioned but our petitions have not been responded to. We have begged but we have simply been shunned. We have appealed in vain and no one seems to be listening.

Our betrayal and subsequent subjugation is like a cancer that must be extricated. Its rotted us all. We cover in corners like pitiful crooks. We have pretended its over, some of us wanted it that way, we have closed our eyes and minds, shunned it - but it has never been over. We have hidden away but now we feel pain and frustration, even rage.

The force of Argument is very compelling when it has the opportunity to explain itself to the right quarters. Evil and lies dominates only after subjugating truth and the force of argument and will never listen to these except when forced to. Those with the force of argument and truth on their side will never have their day in a court of law by matching their ideals to the methods of their oppressors. They can only prevail when they match method for method and ideal for ideal. "It is worth noting, that even in constitutional federal democratic systems, the laws offers a democratic solution to the question of sovereignty and self-determination. This is why the federal system in the United States has succeeded".

It is quite disheartening that our people have been lured into slumber with the hypothesis that their arguments alone and the justness of their case is all it will take for the annexationist La Republique du Cameroun to crumble before us and orderly withdraw its forces of occupation across the Mungo and Matazim waving olive branches.

The preponderant belief fuelled by dreamers is that our revandications are so strong that debates in our rooms and beds, boardroom meetings and contact tours are all we need for our freedom from annexation.

The question is, so Mandela‘s people driven from their homes and segregated against by invaders had no justifiable case so much so that the force of argument had to play second fiddle to revolution? Oh yes! We don‘t have thousands of trained men ready to overwhelm Yaounde with shear numbers, neither do we have silkworm or anti-aircraft missiles, panzer units or jet bombers to face down the army of occupation in our territory who are so strong, stronger even than the hundreds of thousands of South African and Indonesian military machinery grounded and ultimately defeated by a few hundred untrained handgun wielding fighters.

But we refuse to see and learn or even accept God’s preaching’s as it teaches us equivocally in the lessons of David and Golliath. The Battle Line therefore has been drawn between the Disciples of Courage and The Apostles of Fear. The only way finally is the Hard Way! This is the only Language The Annexationist and her Pro-Consuls understand better. We deeply regret reaching this conclusion, but if not this, then suicide will be the only alternative. We Are Prepare To Die For Our COUNTRY! We Are Prepare To Give Our Lives For FREEDOM!
