MKPD Opinion.
A Human right expert is what we need in Cameroon right now, someone who understands how terrorist gangs like ambazonia terrorists operate and who will be able to better understand what the Anglophone regions of Cameroon are going through, the beheadings and torture and kidnapping for ransoms that ambazonia terrorists are comitting in NW and SW regions. It is about time the USA realises that they have allowed their country to be used as a safe haven for ambazonia terrorists to launch deadly attacks on our poor people of the NW and SW regions of Cameroon. The USA must act to arrest all those inciting and propagating violence in Cameroon through social media.
Just imagine a situation, if the tables were turned upside down – What if there was an American citizen living in Cameroon, and sponsoring the killings of Americans inside the USA. What would you do?
