Viral photo said to be of the kids killed in Ngarbuh /  Facebook.

There has been widespread condemnation of the killing of no fewer than 30 people in Ngarbuh on Valentine’s Day, Friday, February 14, 2020 by men said to have been armed with sophisticated weaponries.

Though the identity of the killers is shrouded in doubts, reports suggest that the armed men set houses on fire, killing babies, pregnant women and the elderly in Ngarbuh, a locality in Ntumbaw, Ndu Subdivision, Donga Mantung Division of Cameroon’s North West Region.


Hours after the incident, government is yet to make an official statement. Cameroon-info.net understands that Cameroon’s defense and security forces have since 2017 been battling armed men who seek to make of the country’s North West and South West regions an independent state christened Ambazonia.

Even as either of the armed parties – the State Forces and the Non-State Armed Groups – is yet to shed light on Friday’s killings, many are those who have laid blame at the doorstep of Government.
 
In fact, Barrister Nkongho Felix Agbor Anyior alias Agbor Balla, President/Executive Director of the Centre for Human Rights and Democracy in Africa, CHRDA, says at least 27 civilians were “murdered by state defense forces” last Friday.


Taking to Facebook Sunday morning, the human rights lawyer writes: “The gruesome murder of 27 civilians including women and children by the State Defense Forces on 14 February 2020 in Ngarbuh, Donga Mantung Division of the North West Region in Cameroon must be investigated and the perpetrators of such egregious crimes brought to justice.”

Akere Muna, Candidate to the 2018 presidential election and former President of the Cameroon Bar Association regrets that killings have become the new normal in the North West and South West regions.

“Ngar village, Donga Mantung - Suffering, death and killing are now the new normal. How did we get here were human life no longer has any value? We must all, now, genuinely seek for peace before this country loses its soul. I pray for all those innocent victims,” Akere tweeted Saturday.

Enter Dr. Nick Ngwanyam

Apparently overtaken by tears, Dr. Nick Ngwanyam, MD, CEO of St. Louis University Institute Douala and Bamenda posits that “God is not with us in this nation any more”.

The entrepreneur, political figure and elite of Donga-Mantung told Cameroon-info-net that: “As you would have noticed I have been away from the TV for about a month now because I did not want to make any public statement of some sort during these sensitive elections.

“If you remember the 'Probem Tree', you will notice that I like to deal with root causes and the stem. I kept on singing that the true solution to our Anglophone problems was the Confederation.

“I condemned Special Status as best as I could when we all knew the empty contents. It is obvious that when we run AWAY from the truth and Love; and choose to be dealing with the leaky part of solving problems nothing will work. It is a principle and a natural law. I did not make it. Wisdom taught me so.

“Besides I have said the 'country' and the government should seek to win the peace and not the war. The logic of war on the part of the government and the logic of Odeshi on the part of the fighters are all leading unto death.

“God is not with us in this nation any more.

“The sooner we do what is Right Just and Good in the sight of the Lord we shall see Peace. We are under the yoke of Satan and what we see are his results. Until we all turn to God in this nation, we shall have more trauma in all shades and colours because where there is no wisdom death resides.

“It is the question of taking turns and in this 'dogs of war' era' sometimes the hunter becomes the hunted. Human wisdom and jungle justice is deceitful and those that live by the sword die by the sword.”

NORTH WEST PUBLIC INDEPENDENT CONCILIATOR

The PIC while addressing local masses in Wum Council area, Mr. Tamfu Fai, appealed to the government to create divisional representations.   In the Anglo-Saxon tradition, it is customary to set up independent authorities responsible for settling disputes between users and regional and council administration. In line with this logic, Law No.2019/24 of 24 December 2019 to institute the General Code of Regional and Local Authorities provides for an independent authority called the Public Independent Conciliator (PIC) in the North-West and South-West Regions. The office holder is by no means a legal authority or a judge, as the competences and powers entrusted to him are not of a legal nature. The PIC is responsible, inter alia, for amicably settling disputes between users and the regional and council administration, defending and protecting rights and freedoms with regard to the relationship between citizens and the region or the councils thereof, conducting any investigation on the f...

FRENCH PRESIDENT, EMMANUEL MACRON, DISAVOWS DECENTRALIZATION AS SOLUTION TO ANGLOPHONE CONFLICT; OPTS FOR REGIONALISM.

  Image an elephant walked into the room. It's definitely something you would notice. It's also something people would describe in many different ways. Some might see it as a monster or a threat, while others (like The Colbert Factor) might think it's the greatest thing ever. It would ultimately mean something different to everyone, and that would influence the way each person understood it. The visit of the French President was the elephant walking into the Cameroon room.   Emmanuel Macron and Paul Biya in Yaoundé. July 25-27 2022 Last week's visit by recently re-elected French President, Emmanuel Macron, was too substantial to ignore. To most ordinary Cameroonians, his remarks after the close to two hours high-level talks with long-serving President Paul Biya, were great. To others, (especially those in government), they were a threat to what government had given a pat on its back for a fast-track of the decentralization process with a Special Status for the North Wes...
