Fru Ndi to take upAnglophone struggle head-on

 -Says he is ready to spill his blood fighting for Anglophones

By a correspondent in Bamenda

The chairman of the leading opposition party in Cameroon has declared that he is ready to spill the last drop of his blood fighting the Anglophone cause. Ni John FruNdi, Chairman of the Social Democratic Front-SDF made the declaration on March 10, 2014 while addressing over 5000 Wimbum people at the Mbot Palace in Donga-Mantung.

                FruNdi who went to Mbot Palace to pay homage to the departed Warr Clan head and also acknowledge the new Fon, Mbunwe II, used the occasion to extend a hand of fellowship to the Southern Cameroons National

Fru Ndi now with SCNC

Council-SCNC, arguing that the time to press Biya for Constitutional Review is Now. “We will press from all the angles” he said.

                Buttressing the call for constitutional review FruNdi recalled that when the SDF requested for a federal system of government in Cameroon, Biya snubbed the call and instead gave decentralization, which has proved unworkable.

                On the fiftieth anniversary celebration of reunification, FruNdi lamented that what he saw in Buea was a dishonour to those who fought for the reunification of Cameroon. He said he was shocked and flabbergasted that the heroes of reunification like AmadouAhidjo, JN Foncha, ST Muna, Endeley, JT Ndzi (citing a long list of names) were all ignored and unfortunately “nameless”. ”Not even one effigy of them was displayed during the march-past”, he lamented.

                Ni John also recalled how the Presidential guards wanted to scan him before he got to the grandstand. He revealed that the Biya regime is panicky to the point that they are even afraid of using the telephone. “They asked me whether I was having a phone on me. When I said yes, they requested that I should give them. I gave and they latter gave it back. You see the regime is so shaky that they are even scared of telephones. I am not a security risk in this country”.

                In fact, FruNdi in a way was telling the population that there was nothing in Buea that portrayed that Cameroon was one and indivisible. He said that he even rejected the seat reserved for him given that they wanted to bury him behind CERAC women. And more so, they reserved a room that was synonymous to a toilet for him to stay the night. To him the fiftieth anniversary of reunification was a sham and calls for an urgent need for Anglophone dignity to be recognized constitutionally or else he “would spill the last blood of his life fighting for that cause.”
