Publisher Description: The Unrefined History of Southern Cameroons' (Volume one) is a comprehensive compilation of the history of Southern Cameroons from 1884-1984 in its entirety. Written with superb confidence and impregnated with overwhelming facts and evidence that challenges decades of politicized controversies, this monumental art of historiography x-rays the former UN Trust Territory from discovery by Portuguese explorers and British Baptist Missionaries, through colonisation by the Germans, the British and the Republic of Cameroun. In the circumstance of the Anglophone Crisis, it is stocked with de-classified narratives and startling revelations from personalities who played a pivotal role in the pattern of events that took place prior to 1, October 1961 and after 20, May 1972. It exposes the dark side of the Reunification Movement and argues convincingly that what happened in Buea in the middle of the night and in the absence of the United Nations was not independence, but a concealed master plan to handover Southern Cameroons to France on a platter of gold. It also argues with evidence that the only reason why France was able to connive with Yaound to dubiously assimilate Southern Cameroons was because the United Nations failed to implement UN General Assembly Resolution 1608 (XV). While taking cognizance of the fact that there is no territory in British colonial history that has been left in the plight of the Southern Cameroons, it concludes that the United Nations is fully responsible for the root cause of the Anglophone Problem and holds the golden key to a permanent solution. |
