Freedom is for the Free.
The Quest for Freedom Cannot be Championed by People Who are Imprisoned by their Own Greed for Material wellbeing and Thirst for Power for its Own Sake, Religious Believes, Psycho-traumatic Disorders and Socio-economic Inadequacies. The blind cannot be led by the blind. Freedom fighters are mentally, spiritually and psychologically free. They are not held hostage by their political and tribal affiliations, family encumbrances and environmental constraints. They are as free as the birds in the skies.
Make no mistake to give your quest for freedom to be handled by merchants, they will sell it for peanuts below the market price because they want to make quick cash while it lasts. Don't fall into the trap of handing it to tribal warlords and fanatics of religious and political organizations, they will turn it into what they are indoctrinated to believe or follow. Quite often revolutions that succeed are either auto driven or championed by freedom fighters not breadwinners. Auto driven revolutions count on each member of the affected population who go out for what they want at all cost. When individuals do the same thing, they are most likely to succeed as a collective with or without leadership. However, when members of a sample population are not on the same platform, they definitely need astute leadership to drive the revolution to success.
In the light of revolutions that need leadership, people should take lessons on the psychology of the oppressed. A careful study of most of the people of Ambazonia show that the people have suffered so much so that they have lost their self-esteem and become mentally and psychologically depraved. There are signs and symptoms that show how vulnerable they have become. For instance, they're nothing before the following whom they literally just submit to their bidding whether for good or ill:
1) Those who have gone abroad (Diaspora). In fact this is a big qualification and honorific position which automatically solicit followership. When Diaspora speaks the home front must listen. The false notion is that the diaspora has the money and knowledge hence he who pays the piper dictates the tune.
2) The rich. These folks have a lot of power over the poor and the local population. See how the population listen to the rich irrespective of whether they have something to offer or not.
3) Those who leave the village and settle in towns come back to wield so much power back home. Some of those who come back from the cities are literally worshipped.
4) Religious leaders wield much power over our people whether they preach truth or lies. Our people are literally held prisoners to some of their doctrines and dogmas. Preach freedom as much as you can, they will listen to their pastors who have indoctrinated them to think they are the way, the truth and the light. People are ready to make sure their pastors live in paradise on earth but teach them to wait for their paradise in heaven. Riches are condemned and earthly bliss is seem as evil for the lay but good for the religious unquestionably.
5) Government officials. Our people look up to all people on government payroll as God's chosen people. They're blessed with a matriculation number which entitles them to a monthly paycheck and a license to steal from the government treasury and the people. There is no problem with arrests, kidnappings and ransom taking from government militias but there is a problem with civilians doing same in the name of Ambazonia fighters.
6) Francophone in Cameroun are first class citizens and anglophones fit in so well as second class citizens. Many elite from the anglophone section of the Cameroons find it difficult to contest for the position of president and are worried when someone speaks against the president whom they worship.
7) Whites are superior to all blacks in all circumstances and have been schooled in schools and churches to know and believe so. The concept of a white Jesus and a black Satan is engraved in our minds. We have been made to reject our local names, traditional doctors and medicine and ancestors in praise of foreign names, ancestors and what they call modern medicine. We discard our roots and identify with foreign concepts, ideologies and actors. Yes, we make blacks simply look ridiculous and white and anything he does appear welcoming.
8) The further we drift away from the village setting the more important we become. It is imbibed in our conscience that Buea and Bamenda are more important than Akwaya and Kom. Similarly in terms of Ranking Yaounde and Douala are more important than Buea and Bamenda. By the same token, London and Paris means more to us than our national capitals. Where you come from or associate with determines how you are upheld amongst your people.
9) Clothes, food and drinks, housing, sports and leisurely activities are as important as where they come from and who is promoting them. Come to see how our people die to watch western championships as opposed to local wrestling matches and local soccer! It tells you that our people have been chained and imprisoned by their preferences. They're no longer themselves. They're sick. They need a cure more serious than just the music about freedom. Like one of the animals in George Orwell's Animal Farm, most are asking, will there be sugar after the revolution?
We could continue to go on and on to make our situation continue to look more ridiculous and unreasonable but that is our reality. Any freedom fighter in our context must take care of this reality. Unfortunately, most of the front line freedom fighters are entangled by their own limitations thus the major fact is the blind cannot lead the blind. You cannot champion independence when you're held prisoner by your own greed for wealth and power and church dogma or worship of the West and their ways etc.
Please, don't be too quick to blame Amba boys when they follow orders from fake leadership abroad. They're a product of their reality and psychological baggage. If they listen to orders from greedy numbskulls abroad and kill their fellow brothers in arms or ruin our chances of getting free asap, please, kindly seek to cure them for they are sick. If we want freedom, we have to begin by accepting who we are, build our self-esteem and feel free to improve on our lot according to our means and circumstances.
