The London Chairman of the Southern Cameroons National Council, SCNC, Daniel Galabe, has released a programme of street demonstrations to take place, May 20, on Downing Street, UK, from 10 am to 3pm.
He calls on all the demonstrators to dress in black. This information is contained in a communiqué dated May 5 to Southern Cameroonians in the UK.
Claming that they are seeking for a legitimate struggle for freedom, justice and sovereign independence of the Southern Cameroons, Galabe says a Southern Cameroonian who will celebrate May 20 as a National Day would be celebrating slavery, physical, spiritual and moral torture inflicted by the barbaric regime of La République du Cameroun for the past 45 years.
"May 20 is a black day in the history of Southern Cameroons as a nation, and Southern Cameroons as a people. It is a day of national shame and dishonour, a day we should all be in sack clothes and ashes," declares Galabe.
He says May 20 is the day the final nail was put on the coffin of annexation and the British Southern Cameroons, as a distinct legal and political entity ceased being.Declaring May 20 as national day of mourning, Galabe says the messages that the placards will carry will be reminding the United Nations, United Kingdom of their legal and moral responsibility to Southern Cameroons people and condemnation of annexation by La République.
Other messages will read; "no to neo-apartheid, freedom and independence is our rights," "no to colonial occupation," "UN act now to stop another blood bath in Africa", "British Southern Cameroons is not for sale," "what is good for Montenegro, Kosovo is good for Southern Cameroons and that British Southern Cameroons is not for sale."
Galabe appeals to forces of law and order to put and end to the killing of Southern Cameroons youths and for the UN and international community to intervene now to avert a Rwandan-type genocide in the Cameroons.

While calling for immediate release of all Southern Cameroons political prisoners languishing in jail in La République du Cameroun for standing up for their rights, Galabe assures the detainees of their full support.
