People from Cameroon who live in Calabar and other refugee camps in Cross River State make fun of their government and military for frequently parading by the bodies of Ambazonian separatist soldiers that have lately been murdered.
Early this week, news about how the Cameroonian government had killed leaders of Ambazonian with their bodies on display appeared in the world media.
The people of Cameroon expressed regret that Paul Biya’s administration had not been able to restrain the strength and prowess of the so-called Ambazonian fighters in the southwest region of the country.
The citizens of Cameroon, many of whom fled their nation’s troubled regions for refuge in Nigeria, boast that their battle has caused many more casualties for Biya’s army.
Ambazonia’s independence is being fought for by hundreds of separatist fighters, said Ogoja exile Edward Mbe Areey.
“You will be shocked if you learn how many of our forces are in the jungle. There are numerous fighting teams and organizations that have camps in the woods. How many times did the Amba Boys display the dead Biya’s men who were killed by our valiant soldiers? However, if they are successful in killing one of our leaders, they will make a huge deal out of it by encouraging international media outlets to post the photos on social media.
He claims that their boys essentially run the “Ambazonian Territory.”
Tim Orue, a different refugee who frequently goes from his region of Cameroon to Get River State, claimed that it is extremely dangerous to cross to the Mfum border near Ikom, a cocoa town in the middle of Cross River.
“The Amba lads will gather what they refer to as’supports’ when we encounter them along the route and let us continue. He explained, “But there are days when they would announce absolute lockdown, making it incredibly dangerous to move in the difficult zone.
In some areas of Cross Rivers State, there are an estimated 500,000 Cameroonians, including refugees. The vast majority of them lack identification documents and residency permits, yet they can still move around freely.
