        It is unbelievable what #PaulBiya is doing to the people of #SouthernCameroons. They went from house to house collecting youths to go and kill in the hotel in #Menka #Pinyin #Santa. How could one explain it that they took this young girl in the night and by morning she was shot?

        This is just a tip of what is happening in British southern cameroons. We are dying on daily basis. Not less than 10 people are killed on daily basis.

        A barbaric regime whose sole goal is to exterminate the people of Ambazonia. You can never kill the idea. All that is asked for is freedom and it shall be gotten. Every day armless people are killed all over southern Cameroon

        They lured and went and kill her then later claimed she was a terrorist killed during an attack. Russia was sanctioned for annexation, what has the international community done to Biya and his surrogates for annexation of #ambazonia?
