SCAPO PRESS RELEASE
A SOUTHERN CAMEROONS HUMAN RIGHTS CASE DUE HEARING AT THE BAMENDA HIGH COURT
SCAPO/PR.01/2013
The Southern Cameroons Peoples' Organization (SCAPO) informs the
people of Southern Cameroons at home and abroad and Human Rights
Organisations world-wide that a Southern Cameroons human rights case
(HCB/19M/2013) filed at the Bamenda High Court of Mezam Division is
due to be heard on Tuesday 26 February 2014. The case was filed
following the persistent human rights violations unleashed yearly
against the people of Southern Cameroons on the first day of October
by agents of the Republic of Cameroon.
Southern Cameroons, a former United Nations Trust Territory was
granted independence by the United Nations General Assembly in 1961 by
instrument of Resolution 1608 (XV to take effect from 1 October 1961
upon joining La Republic du Cameroun in a Federal Union. Although the
Union never concluded, the two territories cohabited informally until
1984 when President Paul Biya pulled the State of East Cameroons out
of the Union and renamed it La Republique du Cameroun. The UN
sponsored Federal United Cameroon Republic is now defunct, but the
action of La Republique du Cameroun in incorporating the State of West
Cameroon as its 9th and 10th Provinces when she seceded from the UN
sponsored Federal Union is in breach of her bilateral Agreement with
the Southern Cameroons prior to the UN plebiscite and is a flagrant
violation of key UN instruments setting out guidelines about the
Union. Her yearly arrests, detention and torture of Southern Cameroons
people on 1st October , the anniversary of their independence is
clearly a war of subjugation being waged on the people of Southern
Cameroons, a war which violates key Articles of the International
Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
This "war" of subjugation has gone on in Cameroon since La Republique
du Cameroun annexed the Southern Cameroons and supressed its
Statehood. It will be recalled that the Southern Cameroons was a
self-governing State (with Ministerial government headed by a Prime
Minister, a bi-cameral Legislature and an Independent Judiciary) as
far back as 1954. It is unthinkable that a people will attain that
level of political development and then offer themselves and their
territory as a gift to become two Provinces of another country. The
only reason why this "war" has so far not escalated to an armed
conflict is the restraint with which Southern Cameroonians have
responded to the bad faith from the leadership of La Republique du
Cameroun. However, while we are engaged in exhausting peaceful options
to the annexation of our country, let no one be in doubt: All options
are on the table. When peace and justice are denied our people and
country everywhere, other options will be studied.
The bad faith from the leadership of La Republique du Cameroun
manifested itself in the callous and insensitive manner in which La
Republique du Cameroun annexed the State of the Southern Cameroons and
supressed its statehood; It is manifested in the pusillanimous steps
they have taken to obliterate the Anglo-Saxon heritage in Southern
Cameroons and assimilate the people to the French inherited systems
operating in La Republique du Cameroun especially in Administration,
Education and the Legal system. The people of Southern Cameroons
salute all their sons and daughters in the fields of education and
the Legal Profession who have defied the odds to keep our system from
complete obliteration. So far all has not been swept away. The
Southern Cameroon Human Rights case in
HBC/19M/2013 AUGUSTINE FEH NDANGAM ( PETITIONER ) VS. THE PRESIDENT OF
THE REPUBLIC OF CAMEROON, THE GOVERNOR OF THE NW REGION, THE GOVERNOR
OF THE SW REGION ( RESPONDENTS )
is about the right of the people of Southern Cameroons to
self-determination. It has been filed at the Bamenda High Court
because we have faith in the Judiciary of the Common Law system
inherited in the Southern Cameroons. The "war" to sweep this system
under carpet has so far not attained victory point. "Though much is
taken, much abides" Lord Tennyson :Ulysses.
The people of Southern Cameroons will be kept updated on developments
on the case.
