Commerce and the forces already interviewed in you formed this suspect itll be a high dose for the country and reform sympathies militias sympathies incomers English Speaking regions was too quick to break away state they call. The often use abundant Properties Like these come. Cameroon soldiers recovery day insurgency started as a street protest. But were not in a state of crisis where new situation what we have to restore law and order men around brown those who have just gone astray. This is a corner at once very lively town now in regions fighting between supporters and the army has forced inhabitants to flee its been like this for 3 years nothing in a tone is functional not even hospitals. So just sit and civilians are also for us you should controversies here so we just did the militias for everything. As time has passed weve noticed the conflict has progressed. The separatists have launched a campaign against the population they carry out kidnappings and ask for ransom. Demand on one song. For the current army has been accused of committing serious human rights abuses against the local population allegations it has repeatedly denied however so just a film bunny villages and attacking civilians meanwhile hundreds of sympathies fighters have left the movement citing financial mismanagement from their leaders have brought. This moment to sip it is fighting for 3 years he has not joined a government and misty program now with some of us have realized everything we were told about the separatist movement was a lie the leaders use us to make money for them thats why i started fighting. We leave you know we dont know because for now we have to immediately be. Yet another town diverse that by fighting along this route everyone has fled. And their military be security is always tight the commander tells us super just have their own comes just a few kilometers away. All the army a setup barracks like these across under a full time rune attacks on secession is still take place but obviously as they are walking have to contact is a tux. The army shows weapons including explosives we just see was seized from the separatists in another town does hospital was blown to the ground so just.

I can live in an atmosphere free of. Commuters go up and see the planning to rebuild down to 4 regions nevertheless its still unclear how this will happen when we continue fighting and destruction in the area. Joining me now is a did a new report out please a young who sent that report from cameroon. When you were in separatist territory what were civilians telling you about how theyve been affected by the fighting. First of all it was so we didnt see lots of civilians with the few that was just able to carry out because they live in fear they can go to churches they cant go to the fields because they have caught in the crossfire. And now he has a thing just like the separatists cameroons army has been accused of committing serious human rights abuses so we cant really say that the military are the good guys and separatists not a bad guys can we. Maybe we did you call for us to identify whos the who gun was the bottom guy the media tells us that we have it here to protect the people and to support the city and here to fight for the people there in reality the people on the ground soften the brunt of these fine and good sides fault in human rights abuses called into human rights groups. So why are the separatists and they speak in regions so eager to create a brick away state. Goes back to the history of cameroon cameroon was treated was i mean you said by 2 cypriot colonial powers the french and of british and the outlook for regions where we are concentrating our thought was i mean the south by the british style and the whole show is different from that of the french speaking region also the end of the regions have much more resources including pitch rule robots and to feel as though they do not enjoy these resources just the more reason why most of these people climb want to separate and control this turkey as their own country and to control of their resources busybody. Briefly before you go come in started a National Dialogue nearly a year ago to resolve the conflict in yangon a foreign areas is it making a difference at all. 11 months down the line since cameron held a National Dialogue to discuss the crisis marsh has not changed on the ground there are still kidnappings killings in the indian villages and people here do not really expect much to happen even after a year most of past.
