No nation earns respect by turning its liberation struggle into a spectacle. Ambazonia must present itself as a serious state with a serious future. History will not honor those who made the most noise. History will honor those who delivered freedom.

There is a dangerous fantasy being marketed in the Ambazonian diaspora: that crying outside the private homes of American politicians will somehow win our freedom. This narrative, pushed by Paul Bassa Nilong and echoed by Kizito Ellad, Irene Ngwa, Emmanuel Tita, Richard Mbi, Rev Victor Mbah, and Dorothy Ngwa, is not activism. It is desperation disguised as strategy. It is weakness mistaken for diplomacy. Independence is not won by begging. Independence is earned through intelligence, law, defense, and statecraft.
Leading from Behind a Keyboard
Paul Bassa Nilong hides in Germany yet orders Ambazonians in the United States to take reckless actions that risk arrest and humiliation. If street protests were the magic formula for liberation, Berlin would be the first and most logical battleground. After all, it is Germany that signed the colonial agreements that create the legal foundation of Ambazonia’s sovereign claim. Leadership is action. Leadership is sacrifice. Leadership leads from the front, never from the shadows.
A Comic Movement Fueled by Stale Narratives
The entire advocacy of this group is built on one obscure Waldorf publication that mentions Ambazonia. For six months, they have recycled that single article as if repetition can transform irrelevance into proof. It exposes their limits: lack the intellectual ability to build a modern diplomatic argument. This is not a liberation strategy. It is a comedy routine.
Failure Plus Failure Still Equals Failure
Rather than mature in thought or learn from past mistakes, Paul Bassa Nilong chose to merge his collapsing platform with the already deflated Chris Anu. Two failed leaders cannot produce success.
Failure multiplied only becomes louder failure. Ambazonia deserves strategy — not recycled chaos.
The Proof That Actually Matters
Let us look at the facts:French Cameroon did not run away from: The Swiss-led peace facilitation. The Canadian peace initiative. The Vatican-based mediation window, because of Paul Bassa Nilong.
They did not abandon negotiations out of fear of Chris Anu or Emmanuel Tita. They backed away because of: President Dr Samuel Ikome Sako and the Government of the Federal Republic of Ambazonia.
The Sako Administration is the only leadership with: Legal continuity under international law. Diplomatic credibility recognized at formal levels. The intellectual framework that terrifies Yaoundé’s strategists. Every time Ambazonia’s sovereign claim is placed on record, French Cameroon panics. That is the proof of a working formula.
Competence Is the True Weapon of Liberation
While others: Gatecrash birthday parties, Pose for mock-heroic selfies, Scream at closed gates The Government continues: Advancing legal action at global justice forums, Leading responsible diplomacy in Washington and beyond, Maintaining governance structures rooted in the people, Supporting disciplined self-defense operations. That is how nations are restored. That is how sovereignty is solidified.
Conclusion
No nation earns respect by turning its liberation struggle into a spectacle. Ambazonia must present itself as a serious state with a serious future. History will not honor those who made the most noise. History will honor those who delivered freedom.
President Dr Samuel Ikome Sako has earned the attention — and fear — of French Cameroon. Perhaps those seeking relevance will take the hint and finally learn from success. Ambazonia rises through strategy. Not street theatre.
