Hello Visha
British Cameroons was UN territory that was entrusted to Britain to administer on behalf of the UN until the territory gained independence. Whatever British divisions were made in British Cameroons were temporary and purely for the administrative convenience of Britain. This was allowed, so long as they were not permanent.
But the UN itself approved the temporary partitioning by Britain, by cancelling the Trusteeship Agreement of 13 Dec 1946 for the portion of British Cameroons called Br Northern Cameroons, and gave it a date of being deemed to be independent of 1 June 1961. This left just Southern Cameroons as UN trust territory as the northern sector had been sliced off.
The Southern Cameroons independence on 1 Oct 1961 was conditional on holding a tripartite conference between the British Administering Authority, the Govt of Southern Cameroons, and the Govt of La Republique du Cameroun, to draw up a Treaty of Union between La Republique du Cameroun and Southern Cameroons. This Treaty was to embody the previously declared terms of joining, particularly the fact that this joining had to be on the basis of a Federation of two states, equal in status.
Because the conference never took place, the terms on which a Federation was to be created between LRC and SC were never reduced into a written Agreement and a copy filed at the UN Secretariat.so that it is not only publicly verifiable, but would validate the union between LRC and SC.
In my view a cause of action against Britain could be considered by SC, when the latter becomes a member state of the UN. The trusteeship agreement was between the UN and Britain, and SC would appear not to be a party to the Agreement, except only as beneficiary to the trust.. It is the UN which could fault Britain for not having granted independence to Southern Cameroons, thus leaving it to negotiate directly with LRC
What Britain handed to LRC was the UN colonially administered territory of Southern Cameroons. Southern Cameroons thus merely changed its slave master, from Britain to La Republque du Cameroun. LRC is administering SC in that capacity, and all talk about re-unification of two states is palpably misconceived.

Hello FaiThe "owner" of the one building is the United Nations that let it to Britain as "tenant occupier." Surely the owner can modify the building at his pleasure, by converting it into two apartments.Does this help?Mola--

Dear FaiI misspelt your email address, so my posting, above, may not have caught your eye.. Are you able to read my response now but, should you have further questions, please let me know.To use a simple illustration, suppose a person builds and owns a large house, but later decides to convert it into two self-contained apartments. Will the dividing walls have anything to say to the owner?Best regardsMola---------- Forwarded message ----------

Mola thanks for your input but I want to know if Britain as administering
authority of the Trust territory partitioned it in respect of the Trust
agreement. Subsequent errors committed by the Trustee could not right the
wrong she had committed. Was Britain given one territory to administer or
two? No matter how long a stick may stay in water it can never become fish.
The President of the General Assembly would have done well to present Biya
with the map of the Southern Cameroons and not one of the British Cameroons
that included the Northern Cameroons. Logic is not the law here Mola.
Britain violated the Trust agreement and used her super power status to
frustrate the independence of the Cameroons.
You may go back to some of your arguments in support of the above. We still
have them in the mail.

Dear Dr Gumne
Thank you very much for your kind words. You know I have always held you
in high esteem.
Have you read the posting by your Vice-Chairman to the Recorder Newspaper
that merely reported the Southern Cameroons Ultimatum to Nigeria as
breaking news from leading Nigerian Newspapers? The Ba Nkom said he was
writing to the Asst Attorney-General in Nigeria to discredit what you say
you completely agree with, and your name was inserted as having
collaborated in the posting!
Do we need to shoot each other on the legs instead of concentrating our
energies to fight the common enemy?
Accept my most sincere regards
Mola
