General No Pity

Clement Mbashie (died c. May 2023),[1][9] better known by his nom de guerre "General No Pity", was an Ambazonian separatist who commands several militant groups, most importantly the Bambalang Marine Forces and Bui Unity Warriors, in the Anglophone Crisis.

[1] After a period of unemployement, Mbashie opted to instead work as a motorbike taxi driver, a profession he practiced in the time leading up to and during the early stages of the Anglophone Crisis, an open separatist rebellion in western Cameroon.

Without a job and perspectives, as well as angered over the negative impact of the Cameroonian state on his life, Mbashie returned to Bambalang and joined the separatist movement.

[5] General No Pity gained prominence as one of the Ambazonian military leaders who are most "wanted" by the Cameroonian security forces,[5] as his militia quickly became rather successful as well as increasingly brutal.

[17] In September of that year, General No Pity and the Bambalang Marine Forces cooperated with the Jaguars of Bamessing to ambush a military convoy.

[19] Meanwhile, the Cameroonian military launched operations to hunt him down, resulting clashes which left several Bambalang Marine Forces members dead.

[20][b] Eventually, Cameroonian security forces arrested Antoinette Kongnso, believed to be the pregnant girlfriend or ex-girlfriend of General No Pity.

[6] In June 2022, General No Pity personally led an attack at Njatapon, a border post between Ngo-Ketunjia and the Noun River, killing nine Cameroonian soldiers.

On 28 January 2023, he resurfaced in a video where he said that "three truck loads" of soldiers had attacked his stronghold in Bambalang two days prior, only to be repelled with heavy losses.

According to this account, Sylvester had surrendered because he had been defeated by Njibongwe Derick (General No Pity's witch doctor) in the following succession struggle over command of the Bambalang Marine Forces.

[17][29] In July 2023, Le Jour journalist Haman Mana and Ngo-Ketunjia prefect Quetong Anderson Kongeh supported the claim that General No Pity had been killed.
