Ambazonian News Update: Imminent Release of Ambazonian Curriculum

This day we share the preamble of the Ambazonian curriculum from the Department for Education and Strategic Collaboration, DESC.

The document outlines the rationale of the curriculum to three parties , focusing on the idea of moving on and taking Ambazonia’s destiny into Ambazonian hands.

It acknowledges there could be problems of inexperience but urges Ambazonians to embrace those as opportunities to grow and learn, looking forward to the satisfaction of self-determination and self-reliance in solving our own problems.

Ambazonian News is set and ready to publish the curriculum here as soon as it is issued by DESC.

Read it here:

The Ambazonian Curriculum – Taking our Destiny into our Hands.

The Ambazonian Liberation Struggle has been about messages.

The Curriculum is the biggest and most significant message and the next logical message to “move on”.

To the illegal occupiers, La République du Cameroun: Our Ambazonian Liberation Struggle is not a protest. It is a decisive break away to take control of our social, economic and political development, with no regard to/or ill-feelings for the evolution of our neighbour La République du Cameroun. They do not need to carry out any reforms one way or the other as they are utterly irrelevant to our proposed route to a prosperous future for our nation, Ambazonia. It is way past the days of any thought that colonial-French-style terrorist intimidation of our people is going to have any effect. That same intimidation has established for all doubters that the “reunification”, though well-intentioned was a resounding mistake, from which we draw our lessons and move on. Our fervent hope is that we eventually have cordial relations as neighbours but we will not lose any sleep to maintain an unbalanced disadvantageous and utterly harmful association. It is time to stop dangling mixed messages or suggesting that our two countries need to accommodate each other in any other ways than as neighbours. Our step into the future is not to defy purported law as there is no law or expectation that Ambazonia should be a supplicant of La République du Cameroun. Indeed, experience teaches the contrary and an honest appraisal by La République du Cameroun’s political leaders should lead them to the same conclusion – that they should stop the illegal occupation and withdraw to their established international borders, no honour lost on either side.

Of course we will ensure the safety of our children in our schools.

To our people: This is an opportunity for us to step into the light and look towards a brighter future where we will explore with excitement and anticipation, all the opportunities for development and discovery. We believe that we are the equal of any society on the planet and insist on equal opportunities to fulfil our potential and creativity. Our reward will be the satisfaction of knowing that we resolve our own problems and overcome obstacles with our own ingenuity and effort, regardless of the approval or disapproval of other equal members of the community of nations and peoples of the planet.

We do not need or expect the benediction of any other nation, only our deserved and fair opportunity like every nation and people. Our humility is not to be mistaken for inferiority.

We accept, and look forward to, challenges which will strengthen our nation and drive our ingenuity and creativity due to our urgent necessity.

We are proud of our success in standing up to La République du Cameroun’s intimidation and now make it clear that it is time to start building our nation and society in peace and tranquillity.

The current state of affairs between La République du Cameroun and Ambazonia dictates that only one conclusion – that Southern Cameroons’ Founding Fathers’ dream welcoming brothers was a romantic mistake, which has been compounded by the daily experience of each and every Southern Cameroons citizen under the La République du Cameroun hegemony in the last six decades.

Starting from our children, we need to turn the page to a normal beneficial society where all our efforts bring us positive rewards and benefit ourselves and our community fairly. We should be proud to exemplify the benefit and need for hard work and self-determination to our progeny, pointing towards the light of modernity and science as the way forward towards an outward looking society where they can travel the world with pride and self-confidence, secure in being able to say they are Ambazonian and only draw respect.

To the international community: Ambazonia is taking her place. Any nations of good will are welcome and appreciated to help us make fewer mistakes, but our destiny is our own and we will learn quickly and improve. The international community should play their part in ensuring the safety of our children in our schools in conformity with the norms, as they would for all other children on the planet.

Never has any country accepted security forces intentionally firing live rounds into school-run traffic under any circumstances. Though many other atrocities and genocidal crimes have been perpetrated during La République du Cameroun’s illegal occupation of our land, we reclaim the safety of our children to attend their places of learning with the same safety that is expected and accepted for all nations on our planet. We heard “Never Again” and it is not a phrase that needs to be repeated but implemented. We will not “give it chance” for we are already a blessed special people who have learned that our special status is not in the gift of any dictator but resides forever within us, each and every Ambazonian.

If a limb needs amputating, it is not positive, optimistic or rational to suggest a sticking plaster. Delays in dealing with the disease jeopardise the whole body.

Ambazonia belongs to us! Ambazonians’ problems are ours to solve. Ambazonians’ social, economic and political development are ours to ensure.

Team Ambazonia issues latest press release on consultation between independentists…

As la République du Cameroun lurches towards chaos, Team Ambazonia, the Ambazonia Consultative Commission continues much-needed consultations to keep channels open between supposedly divided Ambazonian Liberation Movements.

They are not that divided! The reason for the collapse of the tentative negotiation processes is that “there is no adult at home in la République du Cameroun”.

The Daring Move: Ambazonian Liberation Struggle Charged

Since 2/9/23 when IG President Marianta Njomia signalled the Daring Move Ambazonian decolonisation is getting more and more real as La République du Cameroun’s militias find themselves operating in ever decreasing circles.

Ambazonians are more aware of the significance of La République du Cameroun’s apparently loony activities, such as staging marches to mark “youth day” or “National day”. In trying to prove to the international community that “normalcy” reigns, La République has proved to the international community that they are as corrupt and unjust and brutal as ever and that the normalcy that Ambazonia said no to is no more bearable nor acceptable than when it was said no to!

They have also made Ambazonians more aware of their strength and position of power in the imperceptible and pointless fight to show the international community … whatever. The said international community is not really interested and will not come and impose any terms on either side of the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle. What La République has revealed to Ambazonians is that they [LRC] are in the legal wrong and need to prove that Ambazonians consent to the “forceful and illegal” occupation. In trying so hard they have proved the contrary. Even the international community would not expect of any people to consent to the occupiers who casually kill their children on their way to school, or boast of “neutralising youths suspected of being separatists”.

The Ambazonian citizens realise that it is their actions and comportment that will determine their fate. They need to return their lives to their normal, running their own affairs in the spheres of education, social progression and economic development with no regard for La République du Cameroun, even if La République du Cameroun tries to intimidate and dissuade such practical independence – in fact, especially if they try, for that is a way of “showing the international community” what we have chosen. The international community will have to accept the reality as they are gradually doing with Somaliland.

Now to the Daring Move! The Daring Move has ensured consistent nationwide daring moves to uproot La République du Cameroun assets and structures on our soil. Be they fifth columnists (black legs) or the poor-people’s children La République deploys to try to intimidate us, the message is clear. Daring Move is for the long haul and open-ended until all vestiges of La République are uprooted and gone from our soil. It is consistent and targeted as outlined in the initial PEO of 2nd September 2023. On a weekly basis since the signal went out, La République militias and fifth columnists know impunity has ceased and expect that it is only a matter of time before they stray into the ARF+’s cross-hairs. ARF+ know their targets and are improving as they gain experience and see the effects of their dares.

When the Dares join up with mass citizen choices the outcome will only amplify. It will not help La République du Cameroun that they have their coronation to try and engineer! The supreme irony of these coronations in these increasing isolated colonies is that the country orchestrating them brutally beheaded their own monarch 250 years ago! Anyway even the subjects of La République du Cameroun are not expected to stand for a coronation even if “les gouvernants” proxy colonialists could. In the last fortnight they have managed to entertain anyone who was bothered to look with a rumpus on the crucial subject of … hiring a football coach! Seriously nothing is too minor for La République du Cameroun to show herself up!

Before that they managed to demonstrate to all Ambazonian would-be fifth columnists blacklegs that there is no mileage in that choice. The best and most devoted of them will eventually end up in SED to taste the treatments they previously meted out to innocent Ambazonians just to prove their loyalty to La République “illusoire” du Cameroun! Step forward Moja Moja and thanks for being the metaphor!

Beware would-be fifth columnists! If you escape the ARF+ you will still have to look out for your pals from La République du Cameroun. Think they will leave witnesses behind?

To the sensible and ambitious Ambazonian civilian citizens join your community and start living your dream as a free equal and meritorious citizen. Your efforts and rewards will be yours in out country. Support the ARF+ to support you. Your children will progress according to their effort in education! You will progress according to your effort and investment in your community in our country.

The Most High God and our Ancestors continue to Watch out for us.

Ambazonia is free.

Ambazonian Collaboration: Building Bridges and Locking Arms for Liberation | Ambazonia News

As La République du Cameroun prepares to run the gauntlet of charades and hide-and-seek, trying to prove that they can “celebrate” 20th May in Ambazonia, so what?, Ambazonia should be celebrating the first signs of collaboration among the various Ambazonian Independentist Entities. The news was first broken by IG President Marianta when, in her address to the APP on 11/5/24, she revealed that she had contacted all the major leaders to a common position on the likely lockdown to counter the LRC charade. She said she had talk to most and received text replies from those she had not spoken to.

The upshot is that even if they issue separate lockdown declarations, they will have the same dates and durations. Ambazonia News believes this is worth celebrating if it avails as it would be the first fruit to accrue from the Building Bridges policy, marking the hopeful launch pad to further and more meaningful collaboration in other areas to lead to the practical reality of the liberation of Ambazonia.

The IG believes that Ambazonia’s Liberation can be actualised more quickly by presenting a reality on the ground. That reality would start with Ambazonian education from Community Schools to other higher education institutions run by the Ambazonian Communities and separate and independent from La République du Cameroun’s influence or interference. A critical mass in this sector would leave the international community with no choice but to accept that reality. It would convince our citizens that Ambazonia is theirs and secure the social progression that every Amazonian parent has always wanted for their children. It would be immeasurably empowering and lead to swift decolonization which would cascade into other sectors.

This can happen if the Ambazonian independentist Entities all undertake to pursue that goal in areas they control, locking arms to drive out all La République du Cameroun vestiges. Belief is needed. Trust and reliance on the common objectives and motives of fellow independentists would lock in our determination in our external self-determination once and for all.

So Ambazonia News is inviting all leaders to contact others to start brain-storming and thinking blue-sky thinking. Thinking is what will drive La République out and have us ready to face the challenge of building the nation we want.

The next opportunity to keep communication lines open will be the Ambazonian Collaboration Team’s Townhall on 18/5/24.

We have endured the worst of La République du Cameroun and it is time to leap.

The Most High God remains the Watchman of our Nation. Ambazonia is here.

Ambazonia’s Struggle: Unraveling Moja Moja’s Alleged Crimes

Moja Moja, the thug whose eponym came to signify the essence of a black-leg or fifth columnists is reported to be “reaping what he sowed”. His real name is John Ewume and he is supposed to be the chief of the Bwasa village in Southern Ambazonia.

He has been “arrested and taken to Yaounde” and, irony of all ironies, could soon be communing with people he would have summarily executed on camera had he encountered them in Ambazonia.

Moja Moja attained notoriety through his elaborate rituals to please his handlers in La République du Cameroun, whose so-called “elite Rapid Intervention Brigade” he “represented”. While La République du Cameroun propagandists came to avoid open tribalistic comments in public, insisting instead on quoting their “anti-tribalism” laws, Moja Moja felt empowered, so empowered that he gathered evidence of himself committing genocidal acts while flying La République du Cameroun’s flag. For such illogical actions, it is remarkable that he took care not to be in his BIR uniform while making all that footage of his genocidal crimes, a fact which hardly absolves La République du Cameroun of the responsibility for his crimes.

Other fifth columnists were happy to associate with him, probably misguided by the “protection” he must have had to commit those crimes with impunity while posting the evidence on public media. The “elite” were happy to be filmed congratulating and lauding him.

Even the CHRDA of Agbor Nkongho published a dossier calling for an investigation by the government of La République du Cameroun.

In previous posts Ambazonia News has cautioned any Ambazonian born against putting their trust in La République du Cameroun for they would be directed to commit crimes and then discarded much like all criminals seek to rid themselves all witnesses to their crimes.

The lesson is that Ambazonians have no choice but to take up their nations cause for independence from the illegal occupiers of La République du Cameroun.

The Most High Remains the Watchman of our Nation.

Ambazonians beware! Kamto ignores HCB 28/92 in trojan horse post.

Renowned La République du Cameroun law academic and politician Maurice Kamto has wadded into the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle with a social media post in which he reheats the “wrong federalist” argument that “massive voter registration” in La République du Cameroun’s presidential election will “allow” Ambazonians, who he calls “anglophones”, to “exercise their self-determination by voting” in that “election”. In a previous post, Ambazonia News discussed the similarly blue-sky ideas of certain naïve federalists in suggesting that opinion polling could cause change “within” La République du Cameroun, which could facilitate the return of a federation by demonstrating the people’s preference.

On the face of it, Prof. Kamto’s post sounds “reasonable” and if we are wondering why it even needs to be made as an “offer”, then that is the paradox and where the offer damns itself, for it implies that “democracy” is a special offer in La République du Cameroun! To his credit, Prof Kamto, is ,therefore, acknowledging our [Ambazonian] experience of the lack of democracy in La République du Cameroun, where we do not even legally belong, and, therefore do not have to endure the abuses of what Prof. Kamto calls a “brutal, autocratic, kleptocratic” regime which has “mishandled the reunification”.

Prof. Kamto himself has spent the current “grand projects term” protesting a stolen vote in the last La République du Cameroun presidential election of 2018, so even if Ambazonians were gullible enough to fall for his “offer”, there would be no precedent to base any faith on, that their votes would “count”, or what would accrue if those votes did somehow count. There is no “consensual electoral system” in La République du Cameroun, even for their own citizens as Prof. Kamto himself has often lamented, so Ambazonians would have to be gullible indeed to suppose that they could achieve any self-determination through a La République du Cameroun-organised vote, already disowned by their own citizens, including principally the gentleman advocating such a folly! Prof. Kamto would appear to be asking Ambazonians to replay the mistakes of the past by diving head-first into an ill-defined “association” merely in the “hope that it will turn out alright as we are brothers”! Ambazonians, you have learnt from those mistakes at high and continuing cost. Do you want La République du Cameroun militia firing into school-bound traffic, or even controlling such traffic? In what country on the planet would such victims spurn the opportunity to break free from such a fix?

But that is not all. There are more fundamental legal issues at play to do with the Bamenda High Court ruling, HCB 28/92, a fact which makes Prof. Kamto’s apparent offer more threatening, compounded by his renown as lawyer. HCB 28/92 ruled that La République du Cameroun is/was “forcefully and illegally occupying Southern Cameroons, unless La République du Cameroun showed just cause”. La République du Cameroun has never addressed, appealed or tackled the ruling in any way other than through “force”, even before the recent seven year period of heightened genocidal acts in Southern Cameroons by her militias.

HCB 28/92 says, in so many words, that La République du Cameroun and Ambazonia are separate nations on the basis of La République du Cameroun having had her international borders set in 1960, and reaffirmed same in 1984, thereby releasing Southern Cameroons from the unratified process of a “federation of equal states” engaged in 1961. As long as La République du Cameroun is called La République du Cameroun, it has those borders and zero right to any Ambazonian territory -economic, social or political. In fact, better still, it does not matter if La République du Cameroun changes her name, for it is now like we are in the plebiscite campaign period when decisions could not be made for either La République du Cameroun or Southern Cameroons except by those separate peoples themselves, separately.

La République du Cameroun citizens were not allowed to vote in the plebiscite and they are not allowed to vote today in Ambazonia or offer Ambazonians a vote in La République du Cameroun! Ambazonia regained the right to her own destiny in 1984 and her citizens do not need to be offered any thing in La République du Cameroun’s political system. What’s more, the value of such an “offer” to take take part in an illegal election under an electoral system, he himself rejects, and when Ambazonia has a righteous legal and moral cause is frankly disingenuous and nebulous.

The real danger and loss if any Ambazonians fall for this wooden horse would be that they provide the fig-leaf/thread of “representation” by which La République du Cameroun’s forceful occupation hangs over Ambazonia. Is it possible Prof. Kamto can make this “offer” not because he expects to win the La République du Cameroun election but because he is one of the La République du Cameroun class of “gouvernants” who want to continue pillaging Southern Cameroons and their own country on behalf of a foreign manipulative colonial power?

Ambazonians beware! It is not your vote that they want! They just want to be able to say you are represented in their system so that they can continue to exploit you as they have always done. Reject this “offer” and La République du Cameroun will have to leave so that you can run your own country and benefit from your own efforts and hard work. It is not even a realistic offer as it is illegal under international law for La République du Cameroun to try to organise their elections on Ambazonian territory.

Please recall that there is a Presidential Executive Order reminding Ambazonians of their freedom to shun La République du Cameroun’s make-believe.

The Most High God is the Watchman of Ambazonia.

Advancing the Ambazonian Cause

In 2023 large a segment of the Ambazonian community was subjected to various schemes on how to find a peaceful solution to the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle.

By definition “the” solution to a liberation struggle can only be liberation. And yet many of the afore-mentioned schemes dwelled on the nebulous idea of a negotiated settlement with the opaque notion of “inclusivity” which implied Ambazonians should include the whole spectrum from the ARF+ actively risking their lives to expel La République du Cameroun, to “federalists”. While it was ultimately self-defeating to attempt to build a mass of squabbling parties hardly able to agree among themselves on what to negotiate for, that was not the weakest point of most of those schemes. Some of them sought to be more “inclusive” by including “unionists” in order to prove how much more “reasonable” than La République du Cameroun Ambazonians are! Yes, they tried, in earnest, to sell the idea that unionists, who one would not imagine tolerating a label of “Ambazonian”, should be part of conferences to form Ambazonian “positions” to take to the ” international community ” to take to La République du Cameroun to compel her to “to grant” a referendum to allow “all” Ambazonians to decide. Not only has the international community kept their counsel even in the face of shootings of toddlers on their way to school, for one and various other atrocities, it is also clear that La République du Cameroun has no legal status nor inclination to proceed as the schemers proposed. Why would they give up the simpler and more straightforward opportunity to pacify a relatively small protest, burning diplomatic bridges subsequently and then “grant” more than they would have had to earlier and at lower cost? Granted, it is theoretically possible when a state of “mutually harmful stalemate” is reached but that is, to say the least, remote; and, in fact only undermined by a naïve coalition with the fail-assured feature of trying to get La République’s allies to “help” draw up a “possible” negotiation strategy on behalf of Ambazonia.

Those schemes have accrued what logic dictated they “could” – no progress towards any solution. La République du Cameroun spent the year trying to prove “normalcy”, another of those typically La République du Cameroun words, had returned. “Normalcy” is the unjust, unfair, nepotistic, corrupt system in which Ambazonians were rooted to the base of a proxy colonial hegemony which hardly benefitted any of the “subjects” of La République du Cameroun, but gave them the illusion of being better off than “Les Bamendas”.

They thought if they could convince the nebulous international community that they had a corrupt stable system they could avoid criticism. As absurd as the strategy was it was more logical than the idea of an inclusive Ambazonian coalition for negotiation. After all some experts pointed out that referenda are normally requested by “state parties”, in our case, that meant La République du Cameroun would tremble at the consensus of our coalition and ask the international community to run a referendum for us.

Cynics would suggest the conference fiver season was a time wasting scheme to try to dampen the momentum of the liberation struggle.

It did not work …

How should/could the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle be advanced from here?

Given that La République du Cameroun is not looking like negotiating anytime soon, preferring to rely on out-waiting Ambazonia it is time to move on, and moving on is relatively straightforward in its meaning. Ambazonians need to start actively exercising their independence by running their own affairs.

One domain where this should be propagated is education. Ambazonian Community Institutions need to expand. It was already always the case that schools in Ambazonia were paid for by the community even when “created” by La République du Cameroun’s empirical edict.

There are thousands of Community schools in Ambazonia where the running and management is Ambazonian. They need to go the extra final step and implement the Ambazonian Curriculum and Ambazonian School calendar. Those two steps would notify the international community more than any perfectly crafted negotiating position that any coalition could device if the conferences were to take place. Those acts would also break the “waiting” state that Ambazonian citizens have been in during the Liberation Struggle by assuring all Ambazonian parents of their children’s normal and continued development – the well known ambition of all Ambazonian parents.

The third strand in the education battle would be certification and all Ambazonian Entities vying for independence should don their thinking hearts and device a way to by-pass any La République du Cameroun involvement in assessment and certification. Even before the Liberation Struggle La République du Cameroun’s involvement had diluted and trashed our children’s certificates to the point where even after taking post-sixteen exams in English they still needed to take language assessments before they could be admitted to higher education abroad. That problem would therefore be solved with the knowledge that Ambazonian assessments have the integrity that La République du Cameroun systems singularly lack – quite apart from the desire for independence.

In summary Ambazonia’s future is in Ambazonian hands to do.

The Most High God continues to be our Watchman and will inspire

Presidential Executive Order reiterates illegality of LRC occupation, rejects and bans their activities in Ambazonia

IG reaffirms Ambazonian legal “separateness” in formal ban on La République du Cameroun electioneering on Ambazonian soil.

In a new Presidential Order, signed by Interim President Mariana Njomia, the IG has cautioned Ambazonian citizens against becoming unwitting dupes of La République du Cameroun’s illegal activities in the coming months.

With the pressing need for La République du Cameroun’s seven year charade coming in 2025, it is expected that they and their allies and agents will be trying to make-believe that they have Ambazonian representation in their country’s “gouvernants'” ranks.

The IG reminds La République du Cameroun and all her allies to stay clear of the separate demarcated national territory on Southern Cameroons (Ambazonia) as La République du Cameroun borders were established on 1/1/1960 in the AU Charter which La République du Cameroun has signed up to.

La République du Cameroun herself definitively released Southern Cameroons from the oft-violated and unconfirmed “union” when they reverted their sphere of sovereignty to their territorial borders at independence on 1/1/1960, by renaming themselves to their birth name. In that act, they irreversibly lost any rights over Southern Cameroons’ politics, economy or resources, whether they could parade any unwitting stooges or not.

As HCB28/92 implies, La République du Cameroun remains an “illegal and forceful occupier”, a status which cannot change unless Ambazonia and La République du Cameroun decide separately whether to have any form of association. In other words, Ambazonia has the sovereign decision with no regard or influence from La République du Cameroun and any intimidation, especially in the counter-productive form of colonial style terror is not moving any of our citizens anywhere but towards independence. Killing toddlers on their way to school, killing pregnant women, abducting Ambazonians, “neutralising” Ambazonian youths because they are “suspected separatists” need to draw the condemnation and sanctions of the international community and the ICJ.

Daring Move rules of engagement already specifically authorize ARF+ to target “allies and agents” of La République du Cameroun. All those who shall attempt to carry out any activities in preparation for or in direct acts of “electioneering” or claim to represent Ambazonia in the foreign ranks of La République du Cameroun parliament or any of their “gouvernants'” institutions shall automatically join the ranks of the pre-warned legitimate targets of the ARF+.

Ambazonian citizens are well advised to assert their legal right not to be accosted or coerced by any La République du Cameroun agents as LRC has not shown cause to still be in Ambazonia, contrary to the ruling of the Bamenda High Court in HCB28/92. They cannot hold legal elections in Ambazonia. Period.

Ambazonian Education – the question of decolonisation. “Look West!”

DESC, the Interim Government’s Department for Education Strategic Collaboration has put forward some answers to questions about the future of Ambazonian Education. The summary is that Ambazonia will “look West” for the immediate term to solve the most pressing issue of La République du Cameroun’s continued interference with our children’s futures.

First the questions. Where is the Ambazonian Curriculum? How are our children going to be assessed and certified so that they can progress in life? How can we help? These are some of the key questions which have been tabled in APP meetings hosted by the IG to open itself to accountability in line with its “Action and Accountability”, AA, doctrine. For memory, AA, along with Building Bridges, BB, and Complementary Commitment, CC, are the pillars on which the IG manages her prosecution of the Ambazonian Liberation Struggle.

Back to DESC on Education and the way forward for Ambazonian Institutions. DESC is encouraged by the proliferation of Community Schools in Ambazonia as they show the people’s vote against La République du Cameroun’s meddling. Until now, the big question has been the issue of examination and certification with the incongruous situation that Ambazonian Community schools have had to informally seek certification from La République du Cameroun’s appointed boards. DESC expects that the long term terminal goal for Ambazonia is to establish independent and competitive Ambazonian Exam boards to run assessment and certification for secondary education, allowing Ambazonian students to gain access to higher education institutions and universities worldwide. In the short term the most viable solution will be to seek certification, initially as external candidates, from WAEC, the West African Examination Council, and eventually, medium term, to establish Ambazonian membership of WAEC so that WAEC can run local affiliated centres.

Before further questions, Ambazonia does not need to be “recognised” to exercise the right to education and self-governance – look at Somaliland. The step away from La République du Cameroun in this domain is the next and probably most psychologically difficult but is the logical break that will see La République influence even through their fifth columnists, who like to be described as “elites”, dwindle. On this step DESC is appealing to all Ambazonian Independentist movements to collaborate by supporting all the community schools they support to make this break. At the very least they should align their charges towards this separate route from La République du Cameroun.

At primary level, our community schools can expect further orders once DESC has compiled information on the options for assessment.

On the question “how can we help?” all Ambazonians and friends of Ambazonia can contribute their expertise, knowledge and experience to help our children, learn and develop their minds in line with all other children in every other nation on our planet. If you are a specialist in E-learning, or know how to deliver such material Ambazonia needs you. If you know an organisation which is willing to donate such materials to our schools on G0 or in refugee camps in G1, Ambazonia needs you. Think that books are the past? No. Ambazonian children need them on G0 and G1. Our children need to know that we are thinking of them. Nothing is insignificant.

The Most High God is the Watchman of Ambazonia.

NIGER :: NIGERIAN HEAD OF STATE CALLS FOR REPAYMENT OF FRENCH LOOTTING IN AFRICA

Niger, it should be recalled, was under threat from ECOWAS, which proposed to invade Niger “to restore democratic rule” in a country where Uranium is produced but most of the population do not have access to electricity.

The main beneficiary of this mineral was France who, as in their other African colonies, had the monopoly position of having first refusal to Niger’s resources as well as being the sole conduit by which they could sell any products.

Incidentally, ECOWAS has been stalling on its ECO project. It is a no-brainer scheme to implement a single currency in the West African block but which has, as is the likely evolution of any pro-African project, slowed right down to zero speed. Before this the negotiations, surprise surprise, involved France. Yes the same France which is so far away from the location of ECOWAS and not an African country in any sense. A single currency would simplify trade no-end, much like the euro does in Europe so why is the ECO stalling?

Well the reason for their [French] involvement is that their colonies are members of ECOWAS – of course, they would prefer those colonies to been referred to as “former colonies” even though they have had control of those colonies’ “currency” along with those of the colonies in central Africa; as well as the reserves of all of those colonies. Hence the advent of the ECO would, should anyway, spell a logical end to the French colonial arrangement. And that is why France is at the table, some might say, throwing sand in all the gullible flattered African partners.

Hence when the military took over in Niger and made clear they wished to break with France, it did not occur to ECOWAS that their threats and mobilization to basically restore French hegemony in Niger by invading a fellow African country at the instigation their European partner was “odd”. They insisted that “democracy must be protected”. of course not the people, who Ambazonia News imagines are the people in the phrase “A government of the people, for the people by the people”. ECOWAS thought Niger’s people should continue to produce uranium and continue to hand it over to another country and live in abject poverty as long as “democracy was protected”.

The invasion was never really likely! Not even flattered African “leaders” are so daft – well, not all of them.

Now according to this quoted article on camer.be:

<<Begin quote>>

Brigadier General Abdourahamane Tiani, Head of State of Niger, recently made a strong statement, demanding that France recognize and repair the damage caused by more than six decades of plundering of African resources. In an exclusive interview broadcast on national television and relayed by African media, the Head of State underlined the importance of the currency as a symbol of sovereignty, recalling the years of spoliation of the continent’s resources.

According to the Burkina Faso press agency, Tiani declared: “France has despoiled us for more than 107 years and it must pay in cash the debts of 65 years of systematic plundering of our resources and the 42 years, we will find a timetable for let us be even with France.”

Referring to the creation of a single currency for the countries of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), the Nigerien Head of State indicated that this decision would be taken in due time. Furthermore, he criticized the persistence of certain member states in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), stressing that this hinders the exit from this organization, which has become obsolete since 1990 according to him.

In the same context, the Head of State insisted on the fact that currency is a symbol of sovereignty, and affirmed that his country is engaged in a process aimed at recovering its total sovereignty. He also called for a reassessment of the recent history of African states, with the objective of making decisions in the interest of the people of the continent, firmly denouncing the “cash cow” status that France would have imposed on several African nations.

General Tiani clarified that the creation of a currency specific to the Alliance of Sahel States is a crucial step towards economic decolonization, and assured that the member states of the organization are equipped with experts to make decisions. necessary at the appropriate time. “
