On Christmas day, the small quiet little town of Bangourain was attacked by armed men who call themselves Amba boys. These are armed groups that have been terrorising the people of Cameroon since their formation in 2017.
Bangourain is located in Noun Division of the West Region of Cameroon. During the attack by Amba boys, one person was killed, dozens of houses burnt and destroyed, and several others abducted/kidnapped by the terrorists.
In my opinion, Tapang Ivo’s strategy to export the Ambazonia conflict into Francophone zone is directly responsible for this act of Terror by the Amba Boys, where they went and burnt down dozens of homes belonging to innocent people in the West region of Cameroon. Watch the video for yourself..
On boxing day, we saw videos and images of two (2) Anglophones in that Noun Division area were killed and their bodies dragged on the streets.
Tapang Ivo, the spokesperson of ADF, speaking on 18 Nov 2018, delivering a strategy directive to Amba boys that this conflict must be taken to LRC if they stand any chance to win.
Although Tapang said Mini-cites and hotels in Yaoundé and Douala should be Targeted, but it is obvious that Amba boys haven’t got the capability to travel into Douala to launch an attack, since they travel on foot, and in the forests, trekking over long distances over day and night. So they can only cross and attack defenceless bordering villages in the west region, and that is the only reason why the Noun people were targeted.
You have to understand, when Tapang is saying, borrow strategies from LRC, he means, Kill innocent people and burn their homes, a strategy that Ambazonia is claiming that the Cameroon Government has been using in the NW and SW regions of Cameroon.
They want to cause conflict within the Francophone zone.. They want to engage the rest of the country in their madness..
They want their Cancer to spread and affect the whole country.
They thought that Kamto (presidential Candidate) was going to cause the Bameleke people to take up arms and fight against the Beti and Bulu peole, but that backfired, so now they are trying again, to get the Bambeleke people to react, maybe kill Anglophones in revenge, so that they can say.. see? Francophones are killing innocent Anglophones, and they will go online and scream GENOCIDE!
They want to drive a wedge between the Bameleke and the Bamenda people. They already started spreading nonsense propaganda that the Bamoun people killed 2 innocent Anglophones after the homes were burnt.
Some even went as far as to say that it is not safe for Anglophones in the francophone zone.. They have already started trying to drive the wedge between us peaceful Anglophones and Francophones..
So my advice is this..
We should NOT let them win. To ALL Bameleke and ALL Francophone people, all muslims, all Hausa, Fulani, and Mbororo people in Cameroon, I want you to understand that YOU are my brothers and my family. We Anglophones are your brothers.
Call your relatives in the West Region, and explain the truth to them. I know if my house was burnt, I too will be angry and can react – But we have to help them understand that // Ambazonians/Amba boys are TERRORISTS. They do not represent Anglophones. They are killing us Anglophones, and burning our homes too.. They want to divide us, and make us fight each other. If we start fighting each other, then that is what they want.. And we cannot let the terrorists to win.
I know that the 2 people that were killed after the attack, these were Amba boys that were caught. BUT still – these Amba supporters are using those images to declare that Bameleke people are killing innocent Anglophones. That is the propaganda they are spreading on social media..
So please.. Even if you catch AmbaBoys next time, if you kill them like that, you give the terrorists what they want.. They use those images to cry GENECIDE online.. And I have told you before on this platform that THEY WANT Genocide in Cameroon. So please.. PLEASE.. If you catch a terrorist, Hand him to the gendarmes or the Army.
And clean your hands. You don’t want no one’s blood on your hands.. We cannot afford to let the terrorists win.
