Southern Cameroonians Home Front.


We continue the updates of what happened while you were away. This time it was your activity which made us proud. The diaspora has never been this afraid. What you did sent shocking waves into the spines of la Republique and shook the core of the Cameroons.
La Republique has always been using football to preach false unity. Like anyone else in the world we all love football but we can't forget where we come from.
On the night when our neighbouring national team was playing the finals of the African Nation cup, the wishes of most of us in the diaspora was that the opposite team should win. The diaspora was afraid what will happen the next day Monday which was ghost town day as a result of the frenzy celebrations. But you Southern Cameroonians Home proved us wrong. You made us to understand that supporting football has got nothing to do with the struggle after all we all support foreign teams and jubilate when a team we like wins a cup such as the Champions league.
We were told that on that particular Sunday when la Republique won the nation cup, there was huge celebrations at night in Southern Cameroons cities. You once again put a smile unto the faces of the regime, the regime thought that was the end of the strike and ghost towns. They deliberately decided not to declare Monday a public holiday so as to test to see if schools and ghost towns will fail as a result of the nation cup. But you good people of Southern Cameroons shocked them. You celebrated on Sunday but got up on Monday with the best Ghost towns ever imagined. Cities like Buea, Mutegene, kumba, Bamenda etc that celebrated the event got up with a dead town. The same was true in all villages and communities.
Your singular action made la Republique panicked. You gave those of us in the diaspora hope. You made us believed in the struggle once again and yes you proved to the world that our struggle is genuine and football cannot make us loose sight of what we want-Restoration.
BaretaNews correspondent made us to understand that speaking with some police officers from Mutengene, they said Anglophones are hypocrites. They wondered how we can jubilate the victory of the lions so crazy and got up the next day Monday with total ghost towns with no fly on the street. Oh yes, we are not hypocrites, we merely confirmed what we are going for.
On this note, I want to specifically thank all Southern Cameroonians at home. This struggle is moving ahead because of your collective resolve to take it to its logical end. Please continue to have faith in this struggle. We will succeed as a team and we will flush la Republique out of our home. Keep the faith and God bless you.
Once more congratulations. I love you all. Remember ghost towns on Monday 24th across the entire territory.
