The Yaounde Rogue Regime Plans Another Wave of Targeted Killings by Mbiydzenyuy David WANTANGWA

In a confidential note written by the LRC Ministry of Defense, there is alleged infiltration of the capital city, Yaoundé by what they call “secessionists”. According to the note, which states that “numerous concordant and generally trusted sources persistently reveal the presence of numerous secessionist terrorists hosted in houses in certain quarters of the capital such as Obili, BiyemAssi, Etoug-Ebe and their environs”. He goes ahead to give orders for appropriate actions to be taken to neutralize these “terrorists and their accomplices”.

This is gravely unfortunate and a paving the way for the brutal military incursions in what they are best at doing - acts of arson, targeted killings, arbitrary arrests, rape and other crimes against humanity for which the Cameroon military has become notorious.

We shall tell you why this is a ploy to continue the persecution of the Southern Cameroonians found in the LRC territory. While the confidential note is baseless, it clearly gives instructions and the leeway for the military to carry out arbitrary actions on whom they please. Who is going to be a secessionist and an accomplice in Yaoundé. This regime thugs have been noted for already carrying out such arbitrary arrests in Douala and Yaoundé specifically in neighborhoods where the English-speaking people are numerous. While the note in itself is contradictory, we will want to note that there is nothing spectacular or strategic in any of these neighborhoods in the two towns of Douala and Yaoundé. These have been the most underdeveloped neighborhoods in these towns.

Furthermore, the xenophobic attitude of the regime against the anglophones in Cameroon has been pushed to extreme levels and this can be called ethnic cleansing. With the broken judicial system in Cameroon, and a whimsical dictatorship in place where any leader or government official does what he likes inasmuch as it pleases the insane dictator, Paul Biya, there is no limit to the repression of the English speaking people of Cameroon until they secede from the arrogant and brutal demagogy of the French led regime.

We cannot be wrong to say that being anglophone is already being guilty either as a terrorist or secessionist or being arbitrarily labelled as an accomplice of the terrorist or secessionist. This is another further leeway for political opponents to sample and eliminate their opponents or enemies of the system, settle their political scores and further carnage.
