Today, 19 March, the Supreme Court of Cameroon quashed the judgment of the Court of Appeal that had sentenced Sisiku Ayuk Tabe Julius and ten (10) others to life imprisonment.

The Criminal Bench of the Judicial Division of the Supreme Court delivered its ruling in the appeal brought against the judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Centre Region by Sisiku Ayuk Tabe Julius and nine (9) others, popularly known as the “NERA 10.” The name refers to the Nera Hotel in Abuja, Nigeria, from where they were allegedly abducted and brought to Cameroon to stand trial.

By way of background, in its initial judgment of 20 August 2019, the Yaoundé Military Tribunal found the appellants guilty of secession, terrorism, and hostility against the state, among other charges. In addition to life sentences, the tribunal imposed substantial financial penalties, including a joint civil award of 250 billion FCFA and an additional 12 billion FCFA in costs.

On appeal, the Court of Appeal of the Centre Region upheld the life sentences in September 2020.

In today’s decision—delivered under the presidency of internationally renowned Justice Marie Louise Abomo—the Supreme Court did not examine the grounds advanced by counsel for the appellants. Instead, it raised an issue suo moto (on its own initiative) and, on that basis, quashed the decision of the Court of Appeal of the Centre Region. The matter has been remitted to the same Court of Appeal, sitting with a differently constituted panel, to be reheard de novo.

By quashing the appellate decision and ordering a fresh hearing, the Supreme Court has effectively acknowledged that serious injustice tainted the proceedings before the Court of Appeal of Centre Region.

The Never Again generation will stop at nothing to ensure Africa gets her respect as a sovereign people from the predatory, racist western powers like France.

A country doesn't develop by absorbing into the public service. Revamp the private sector, revise the curriculum and close down the colonial schools like ENAM; a breeding ground for embezzlers.@CabinetCivilPRC @CameroonPm237 @MincomCameroun @EquinoxeTv_cm

Nous rêvons d'une Afrique unie, solidaire, apaisée. Notre peuple, le peuple fier d'Afrique est prêt pour le grand saut pour L'INDÉPENDANCE, la vraie. Nous respecterons les États qui nous traiterons comme tel.
Les frontières ne sont que des lignes, nos valeurs sont communes.

After 5 years of struggling for political emancipation from the blood thirsty regime in Yde, many Southern Cameroonians have become crippled. Physically, mentally, economically.
Just the hope keeps the people going.

@DabneyYerima France has to quit but Africans must also rethink their strategy vis-a-vis the changing geopolitical positionings from the West

Since 2016, the UN and the International community have maintained a worrisome loud silence over the genocide in the Southern Cameroons
