Hypocrisy
of supposed torch bearer:
After
endorsing “Anglophones” marginalization, Fru Ndi takes food to refugees!
By
Felix Teche Nyamusa, SDF National Chair/ 2018 presidential hopeful.
Fru Ndi Chairing the national executive committee meeting of the SDF has
sanctioned a four states federal Cameroon as his campaign manifesto at a time
when many an Anglophone Cameroonian is thinking of the restoration of
independence and attempts concealing his duplicity with gifts to the suffering
refugees in Nigeria!
Giving
food to the refugees and by extension the detainees is good, and we invite all
Cameroonians and well-wishers to do so, but a political leader of SDF (Number
one opposition here) should fight for in-depth, meaningful changes than bare
offer of a few coins, drinks and food to a constant rights abused lot!
A
two states federal Cameroon is what the Anglophones state or former British
southern Cameroons agreed upon accepting to come together in a federal
arrangement with former French East Cameroons – this happened during the 1961
UN Organized plebiscite. According to this 1961 plebiscite, the two states -
former French East Cameroon (Francophones) and the former British southern
Cameroons (Anglophones) were to form a federal two states structure – which was
to be bicultural, bijural, bilingual and of equal status. My party - the SDF at
initiation in 1990 stood for a federal Cameroon. The Anglophones subjugation,
maiming, killing… as well as general mal governance of the entire country has
continue to deepen. The SDF leadership of John Fru Ndi on her part has woefully
failed evolving with Cameroon politics dynamics to know that stability of
the country will only be achieved on truth, democracy and respect of
historic agreements – the party would have by now point towards the two states
federal structure which ties with union agreement thus minimizing possibilities
of marginalization of any of the two principal sectors of the country by the
other hence preempting separation tendencies of the country’s components !
Today in 2018 Anglophones are the most abused and offended – their culture is
being gradually wiped out courtesy of the Francophone leaders.
Elsewhere
in the world – Canada, Belgium, Switzerland… with multicultural, multilingual
set up – stability and integral acceptability is achieved here by ensuring
equity for all components of each country irrespective of individual numerical
strength.
Fru Ndi inability to convince the SDF establishment
and Cameroonians that a two states federal Cameroon is closest to what can
maintain the unity and integrity of the country than other dubious forms
including the four states structure !
My campaign ( Felix Teche Nyamusa National chair/2018
presidential campaign) stands for a two states
federation of better social goals than even the 1961 target .
Nyamusa pledges to pay reparations to intentionally marginalized Cameroonians (
Anglophones or Francophones), Youths, Women and minorities .
Fru Ndi recent appeal for gifts for Cameroon refugees in
Nigeria despite his lack luster concern on the yearnings of Anglophone Cameroon
points to his regular misreading of practical realities of our country!
