The prime minister head of government has cried for peace and normalcy to return in the Anglophone regions of Cameroon. After the crisis has been rocking the two regions for over five years.

PM Dion Ngute made the pledge Tuesday October 5 in Bamenda at the Ayaba Hotel, while addressing the press during a working visit in the region. The prime minister told press men and women that there is need for peace to return in the Anglophone regions, or else the whole population will soon run out of the regions because of the crisis.

The prime minister said the crisis has caused a lot of harm than good and has mostly affected the interiors, hence has caused a lot of mass exodus. "You have to go to Kumbo, Batibo, Menji and see the hopeless of the situation, we cannot continue like this," the PM said

He added that most of these towns were already growing to be large cities, but the crisis has shut them down. "These were towns that were growing and elites were coming in to invest, now everybody is living those towns and they are going out," regretting the situation and what the crisis has caused, the PM cautioned the population to collaborate with the authorities for peace to reign or else there will come a time that the the country will reject the Anglophones everywhere.

"If we continue on this act, mark my words, i don't want to say anything against my wishes, but if we continue like this, the time will come when the rest of the country will say we cannot accept you anymore," the prime minister said in bitterness, accepting the fact that he is also an Anglophone.

The prime minister went ahead to questioned the fact that it is not because the special status does not answers or satisfied every one that peace should not reign and bloodshed has been the order of the day.

Addressing the issue of Soldiers (Army) in the North West and South West, PM Dion Ngute said they will soon leave as long as the crisis subdues, adding that he is aware that it is the place of the Gendarmes and police to be in the quarters with the people, but the state deemed it necessary that without assistance from the Army, the forces present on ground can not resist the situation.

The PM did not left out the fact that the crisis has caused the Anglophones to be internally displaced persons all over the country, causing investors to carried all their activities out of the regions. "All the people who could invest in Bamenda are taking their investments out, all the money that were coming in through schools like Sacred Heart and others are going out, because nobody wants to send their children out of the region, leading to the creation of many mushroom schools in the Francophone regions,".

Calling all separatist's activities as "bullshit", PM Dion Ngute charged the media men to work with the authorities now by working and disseminating the information if they want peace. "Now we want peace, but to have peace tomorrow, we must work for it today," the PM said, adding that the state has done more than enough to resolve the situation.
