Fellow Ambazonians,

Ngoule Linus and Mboh Akua, both students of the University of Buea, were abducted from their hostels at the University of Buea by Cameroon security elements. The killer squad was led by the notorious John Ewome, alias Moja-Moja, and they shot and killed these two innocent Southern Cameroonians in cold blood. Their corpses were paraded in public and Moja-Moja who is a French Cameroon soldier proceeded in camera to desecrate the two corpses by stumping on their heads and bodies. This is not only unacceptable but crosses the line of tolerance. These could be your sons, your brothers, your uncles, your fathers or our future leaders. They were targeted for being outspoken critics of oppressors and killed in school by the same French Cameroon forces who claim they desire the good of our children better than we do.

Shame on all those who are bending backwards to defend these criminals in uniform. I see so-called learned lawyers laboring in defense of culprits like Moja Moja, who has confessed publicly, in camera, to committing war crimes and crimes against humanity! Those who are defending Moja-Moja, may your children grow up to be like Moja-Moja to your families. This is the latest of the many crimes committed in Fako by this gang led by this agent of the French Cameroon colonial government. Let us observe a moment of silence for these and others who have lost their lives in this senseless war of annexation. including those who have lost their lives in the recent flood in Buea.

A moment please!

May their souls rest in power!

Let me use this opportunity to reiterate our just announced National Days of Mourning scheduled for Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st of March 2023. All flags must fly half-mast on Monday and Tuesday. Fako County shall be on a total lockdown, no movement or circulation of vehicles allowed, all markets closed. Citizens are advised to stay home and pray for the families of the victims of this and other massacres perpetrated by French Cameroon on our innocent people. The rest of the country is expected to observe the traditional Ghost Town and Tuesday as a day of mourning in solidarity with Fako and the bereaved families.

Today, I am calling on all US-based relatives of people who have been killed by known officials of La Republique du Cameroun (LRC) to come forward and help us to institute a class action in the US against these French Cameroon war criminals. I have directed the Attorney General and the Judiciary of the Interim Government (IG) of Ambazonia to commence work on a class action lawsuit against Moja-Moja, and the perpetrators and enablers of these atrocity crimes on Southern Cameroonians. In this regard we are calling on the relatives of Ngoule Linus, and Mboh Akue, the relatives of the Ngarbuh 31 Massacre , the Mautu 9 Massacre, the St Francisca 7 Massacre, the Pinyin 40 Massacre, the Ekondo 5 Massacre, the relatives of Florence Ayafor, Wazizi, Baby Martha, Mami Api, Sam Soya, Charles Wesco, etc. to contact our IG legal team as potential witnesses, to justify this class action lawsuit in the United States. The list of defendants will include the likes of criminals like Atanga Nji, Okalia Bilai, Lele L'afrique, Joseph Um, Gerald Ngala, Beti Assoumou, Emile Bankoui, Eko-Eko etc

In the days ahead our legal team will be publishing a hotline to collect evidence and interview interested relatives as plaintiffs.

We also intend to push the ICC prosecutors to show utmost fairness and impartiality by hearing our case against Paul Biya and Buhari before them since 2019.

Dear Ambazonians,

Welcome to Midland Zone, the Home to Manyu, Lebialem, Momo and Mezam. Our struggle was birthed and nurtured here by your sons and daughters. I mean our struggle for restoration was ideologically conceived by a son of Widikum in Momo. It was loudly proclaimed in Mezam, pilot-tested in Manyu and valiantly defended in Lebialem. Together, this zone has not just been the epicenter of our revolutionary ideology but for a long time was the pentagon of our liberation army. You laid the foundation stone of our edifice when your sons without body armors stood tall on the streets of Abakwa in 2017 and questioned the legitimacy of our occupiers.

From Fon Gorgi Dinka who vividly exposed the nullity of the purported union between LRC and the Southern Cameroons - Ambazonia according to international law, to Tassang Wilfred, the Coffin Revolution, the Heroes of Dadi in Manyu and the enigmatic Dragons crawling the hills of Lebialem. You helped us to demystify the superiority complex of our annexationists and moved the struggle from the quest for equality to the restoration of our stolen sovereignty. You conquered the enemies’ choice weapon of corruption as you despised the enemies truckloads of bloody bribe-money stolen from our backyard. You took our resistance a distance further to the edge of possibility, re-kindled our sense of pride and gave hope to our children.

You made us earn the respect of our enemies very early into the struggle. The first cannot be the last, we have to wake up now!

Yes, the enemy did not also hesitate to find the weak links and strike you hard just to break our backbone. They worked hard to recruit and prop up phonies amongst you to kill the soul of our struggle. These ones tried to deceive the masses, destroy our revolutionary structures, help our killers, and advised us to point our rifles inwards at each other. They torment our populations instead of the oppressor and still have the audacity to rally us in some corridors in Yaounde and Canada for some surrender talks with LRC agents so we can throw in the towel. They conspired with the enemy to kill some of our bravest amongst the ARFs, but no matter how hard darkness tries, it cannot stop the day from breaking.

Let me tell those who proclaimed our end just yesterday night, that it is day break now in Ambazonia. We must arrive at our destination because when it is God’s time not even God can stop his people.

Dear Financial Warriors,

Those of you who drafted during the Savanna event three weeks ago and are here today to continue drafting, I am so proud of you all. Please, in this continuum I want to stop briefly to acknowledge your generous sacrifices.

I also drafted during that event and paid $500 and today I have just paid $300 more and hope to complete my federal draft fully next month. At this stage of the struggle cash is king. We desire cash to accomplish needed emergency actions, reignite or increase the fire, relaunch Operation Lava Storm in all 13 Counties and strengthen our restoration agenda on the ground. Your pledges are a great revolutionary commitment, but they are promissory notes we cannot take to the bank. As we continue today with the Midland zone your Central Government wants to be held accountable for what is given to us in cash not promissory notes.

I encourage the Counties and Resource Mobilization focal points to keep such pledge data for follow up only. Hence, at the end of today DFRM will only publish what the FG will take to the bank tomorrow, which means we will only publish the cash aggregate of the two events, Savana and Midland, raised in support of the Federal Government activities on the ground at this time. Please, all drafting should be done on the official Treasury site or portals for easy collection, transparency and accountability. We want to discourage paying money destined for the Government Draft to County or LGA accounts, to avoid transmission delays and accountability issues.

Dear ARFs,

The Federal Government is your house. If you have any issues of misunderstanding with past or present fighters, officials in your Counties, LGAs or Central Government, please do not leave the house. We will listen to you and help you out. It is better to make up with a brother you disagree with than to go in anger and join your enemy. Your enemy will not change because you fraternize with him, he will only pretend for you to lower your guard so that he takes his sweet revenge on you. “A frog was swimming in a pool and suddenly the water was getting warm and he was enjoying it not knowing he was inside a pot and the pot was now on the fire.”

Don’t be too comfortable with your enemy; he will ultimately kill you. Come back home. I want to encourage tolerance and reconciliation amongst all genuine ARFs. But please do not hesitate to defend yourself against those who have made up their minds to fight or disarm you. The law of the trigger is, he who pulls it first will be the last man standing. Take out the threat first and make your explanations later. It does not matter how correct you are, if you die in a confrontation nobody will hear your own side of the story.

Your weapon, if you have one, is primarily for self defense against anyone trying to take your life or that of your loved one. I use this opportunity to call on all those who are being manipulated by certain sweet-talking do-nothing commentators in the diaspora, sending them to go about killing or disarming ARFs, to know that henceforth any attempt by them against us shall be a suicide mission by the grace of God. The lines of demarcation between those fighting LRC and those fighting their fellow ARFs has been drawn; the line between those who are fighting for a free Ambazonia and those who are fighting to establish themselves as warlords in Ambazonia, those fighting to take us to Buea and those fighting to take us back to Yaounde via Special Status, those who want to surrender for peanuts and those who want to fight till victory comes has been drawn. The line between the tormentors and extortioners of our own people and the liberators has been indelibly drawn.

Fellow Financial Warriors,

I know your strength, for it has been said to whom much is given much is expected. We count on your might and generosity. I am appealing to all to draft the Federal Government (FG) because this year we want to have a strong and active Federal Government on the Home Front (HF). Our LGA and County Handlers will continue to do their utmost this year and the FG shall be by their side to support and help with strategies and provide the needed leadership. The FG will be instrumental in assisting hot cells, in the revival of dead cells, in the acceleration of sleeper cells.

We will help coordinate any tier-three response against our internal and external threats. We will help to coordinate national strategic actions needed to shift the power balance anywhere necessary. In providing needed leadership we shall partner with Counties on agreed projects to plan and execute strategies, under the oversight of our Midland Zonal Command and the ANSC. We are not taking away from our LGAs or Counties. Our revolutionary vehicle runs on three wheels – The Fed Government, Counties and LGAs. We are simply stepping in so that our vehicle runs on all wheels. In the year of acceleration, a dysfunctional wheel will reduce our speed.

Give us a down payment of $1000 today and we shall steer up things in the HF again so that before the National County Draft tour begins in July, our actions would have heightened the overall momentum and enthusiasm in your zone to generate even more donations. Otherwise, some of our LGAs or Counties would have little or nothing to show come the period of the County by County Draft tours.

My Dear Pillars,

Have you ever used a computer and got to a point where you can not click forward or backward? You cannot even turn off the computer, the only solution is to unplug the computer cables? That computer is said to be frozen. There are some of us who agree that in your LGA or County things are not moving, you cannot also go back in time to prevent the issues that happened, and you don’t want to abort the struggle, yet you resist an idea to try something else or help you out.

You are resisting change.

Please LGA Executives and Members of Government, I beg of you with all the faith you have in our existential struggle, give leadership a chance to try something else, to help you, especially when you can acknowledge that some parts of our machinery are freezing under our watch. The causes, the perpetrators notwithstanding, it is incumbent on leadership to find solutions so we make the needed progress despite the odds.

That is why the Federal Government has come up with the Two-Drafts approach instead of one, the AWD instead of the 2WD strategy. Even in medicine where the standard drug does not cure a loved one and that person is in a dire state, you are strongly advised to try an experimental drug, the risk notwithstanding? So please let us help our IG in this new approach to help us. Do so as if it is the best thing we need now, and mobilize as if it was your original idea.

Ambazonia must be free.

Viva our Ambazonia Restoration Forces,

Viva the Federal Republic of Ambazonia

God bless our beautiful country.
