Letter to the Editor

Subject; The Fraudulent Path into the Commonwealth

Sir,

As usual, I followed one of your latest outings with keen interest. In it, you referenced the late Nkwain Francis, a former Secretary of State in charge of the Commonwealth at La République du Cameroun’s Ministry of External Relations.

Permit me, Sir, to add an important clarification for the record. Nkwain Francis, it must be recalled, was the very person La République du Cameroun used to bribe Chief Emeka Anyaoku, the then Nigerian-born Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, in order to fraudulently secure admission into the Commonwealth. This happened despite La République’s appalling record of human rights abuses and in the face of loud and public protests by the people of the former British Southern Cameroons (Ambazonia).

After this act of betrayal and manipulation against our people, the law of Karma was swift. Nkwain Francis himself passed away just a few months later. Chief Emeka Anyaoku, who presided over this fraudulent admission, is still alive today — a living witness to one of the darkest chapters in the history of the Commonwealth.

History must be told with accuracy. The people of Ambazonia must never forget these arrangements that sold their destiny, nor the tragic consequences that befell those who participated in them.

Respectfully,
Ofembe Jack
