" I donot share the opinion with many who imagine that the Southern Cameroons will acquire statehood on a platter of gold or through any of the institutions inherent in the present poltical dispensation of 'La Republique'.The SCNC will be over simplifying the struggle in the eyes of the international community if it continues the struggle in dispersed ranks.I think the problem lies in ideological differences with some opting for total secession and others federalism.I am for the second option because I have a firm conviction that if we obtain immediate secession without resolving the northwest/southwest cleavage,we will drown ourselves in total chaos like many countries who after gaining independence suffered ethnic and civil conflicts.Thus federalism will be a level ground for us to test our political maturity and consolidate our unity.Also in the present world political dispensation,immediate secession will not be easy option to on which to draw popularity.The African continent needs to consolidate its unity so as to better stand against the on going globalistion.The cases of other secessionists movements who have not really achieved their goals despite decades in the struggle.notworthy are ETA in Spain,IRA(N.Ireland),SADR(Morrocco) etc.

It is my humble opinion that anglophone souvereignty be raised to the level of a 'doctrine' and that the young be given the opportunity to direct the struggle."
