Anglophone crisis:

UN Denies Claims of “Genocide” in NW & SW

According to the United Nations (UN), there is no “Anglophone Genocide” in the NW and SW regions shaken since October 2016, by socio-political demands that have resulted in political demands that have resulted in clashes between separatists and regular army.

            Following the numerous exactions attributed to the army, the separatists accused the loyalist forces of “genocide” of the Anglophones.

            These accusations have just been denied by the UN attaché based in Cameroon, who congratulated the Biya regime this week for its humanitarian planfor the NW and SW populations.

            “This plan confirms the recognition the humanitarian situationby the government and its responsibility to ensure the well-being and protection of the affected populations,” said the UN diplomat.

The war against Separatists

            The Cameroonian authorities have always claimed that “the army does not kill civilians.”

            “Security and security forces respond to attacks by armed secessionists who commit abuses against civilians. It has the obligation to preserve the integrity of the national territory,” Issa Tchiroma Bakary, Minister of Communication and Spokesman for the Yaounde Regime, explained recently.

            The position of the international community, which has decided not to side with the separatists, who deprive students and teachers, comes in a context where Cameroon is preparing the presidential election scheduled for 7 October 2018.

            Things are now clear, both for the United States and the UN, armed terrorists who are fighting against loyalist forces in the Northwestern and Southwestern regions and committing acts of violence against civilians.

            The separatists made several mistakes, first of all, the publication of images of soldiers killed and beheaded on the internet, the ransoming of the population, the burning of administrative buildings and the manhunt against pupils and teachers who defied their orders against school resumption.

            Secondly, the separatist leaders or their supporters, including the Cameroonian writer and civil rights activist, Patrice Nganang, have shown themselves to be spreading hatred on the internet and calling for the murder of soldiers of the Beti-Bulu ethnic group close to President Paul Biya.

            These errors have obviously been fatal to the separatists.
