On Friday, August 20, 2021, a delegation of the Ambazonia
Governing Council met with a Swiss delegation led by Amb. Gunther Bächler whom
the Swiss Peace had appointed to facilitate mediations between Ambazonia and
Cameroon. Present at the meeting were other third parties.
This meeting held at the invitation of the President of the
Ambazonia Governing Council, Dr. Cho L. Ayaba in the backdrop of various
discussions, including at the UN Security Council to resolve the Ambazonia
struggle for its independence and sovereignty from Cameroun’s occupation.
Amb. Günther Baechler to lead the Swiss effort to mediate an
end to the Ambazonia Independence Cause
The delegations noted the necessity of the official consent
of the consequential parties, namely the Cameroon government and the Ambazonia
Governing Council to the Swiss-Intention, and remarked that there can be no
negotiation process without this official consent. The leader of the Ambazonia
independence cause, Dr. Ayaba, reiterated the policy of the Ambazonia Governing
Council only to engage in a credible, multilateral, neutral third-party
mediated negotiated settlement that is supported by the United Nations to
resolve the conflict, and has the official commitment of thr Cameroun
government. The Ambazonian delegation further underlined the intransigence of
the Cameroun government, which falsely believes that it can defeat the
Ambazonian people militarily.
Taking examples from other successful conflict resolution
processes in history – especially in Africa, both delegations remarked the need
for a frank evaluation of the limitations of the Swiss interest and engagement
in the conflict resolution and the cost to the people of Ambazonia. In the
interest of the effective resolution of the conflict in a way that guarantees
peace in Cameroun and secures life, liberty, justice, sovereignty and
prosperity for the Ambazonian people, the necessity of a timely action by the
Swiss consequent upon such evaluation was acknowledged and stressed. The
Ambazonia Governing Council shall take appropriate steps in due course based on
such action.
Among other issues, both delegations further noted, and
expressed their utmost disgust to a mindset in the international community that
the Ambazonia War of Independence has not yet attained calamitous level to
warrant urgent and definitive international intervention. This mindset is
prevalent despite the ongoing genocidal horror in which at least ten thousand
people have lost their lives on both sides with over a million Ambazonians
displaced, more than two hundred Ambazonian towns and villages have been burnt
down by Cameroun government forces, and the situation of over sixty thousand
Ambazonian refugees at various locations in the Gulf of Guinea is debilitating.
