State of the Worsening Anglophone Revolution Part VIII; Editorial: “Cameroon Anglophone Liberation War and Crimes against Women, The Time for International Emergency human Rights Actions or Rapid Intervention is Now”

 By Tamukong Roland A. Publisher/Editor

Human Rights Abuse is on the Rise in Cameroon,  as a result of the ongoing war of Independence which has lost focus  with both the Republicans forces and separatist fighters going wayward , multiplying war crimes against humanity daily. Their atrocious actions from the word go has left an indelible mark of pain on the very population they claim to be fighting for their or to restore their territorial integrity. Both parties have taken advantage of the situation to commit all type of outrageous crimes in the name of putting Biya's government and regime on it’s knees. We are all living witness to this sad, pathetic and precarious situation brought as a result of the ruthless change game innitiated by the said liberators or revolutionists. This has or is calling for a serious cause for concern and must be decried in the strongest possible terms using all the powers that be. Reasons why we had to put up this editorial as a call for immediate action or rapid Intervention.

This investigative report, I must emphasis again comes from the firm instructions of the editorial board ordering a succinct and an in-depth analysis on the serious human rights abuse going on in Anglophone Cameroon as a result of the deepening crisis that has caused close to a million persons internally displaced, schools closed permanently for almost three years, human and materials lost unmeasurable.

The socio political crisis that has since ground grounded and crippled the economy of the English speaking part of Cameroon likened to a war of Independence has since gone beyond a war for the liberation of the people of Southern Cameroon to scores settling, torture, kidnapping for ransom, gruesome murder, mess less  killings and mutilation of human parts, most especially those of women.

For the past three years we have seen women murdered in cold blood, we are laying emphasis to the case of Florence Ayafor a prison warden, who was beheaded in Pinyin, Diane Efone burried alive in Kossala Kumba, lifeless bodies found in River Mezam etc. not to talk of hundred cases of women Kidnapped and raped even pregnant ones. The Situation of Yvonne Suoh a pregnant graduate, victim of a forceful marriage caused to be Kidnapped and raped by separatist fighters in Tubah  by said  husband, sparked a serious wave of confusion around the North West social media circle causing girls and women to take to the streets for the powers that be to act immediately.

The above mentioned are few sited cases amongst thousand of such horrible scenes orchestrated by the said separatist fighters. Recently women of the North West and the South West Region in a Pacific March stormed the streets again calling on government and the international community to come and protect the rights of children to education who recently came under attack of separatists fighter today code named “Amba Boys”.

Another set of the population came out recently clamoring for the extradition of activists of the said liberation movement hiding abroad, in the US, UK, Norway, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, South Africa and Dubai sponsoring separatist fighters on the ground to be committing atrocities on women and children.

All these tragic scenes,  our dear audience is just a glimpse of the horrible atrocities going on the ground. People have lost billions, farms, cocoa plantations, estates destroyed,  the economy almost grounded yet the international community is not seeing into the plight of Anglophone Cameroonians.

Women are suffering, most are on the run for their dear lives and seeking refuge in neighboring countries, closed aids or family members of victims under countless attacks, wanton arrests order of the day, children hungry, thousands of internally displaced persons are homeless and greatly in need of water and medical attention. The time for emergency humanitarian plus human Rights immediate action is now or Cameroonians should expect the worst in the days ahead.

That is why we of this media house  join our voice with all the other actors and activists on the ground through this editorial to decry the serious  human rights abuses going on in Anglophone Cameroon while at the same time championing the campaign on cease fire and the crusade for peace to be reinstated in the North West and South West Regions of Cameroon.
