Ambazonia cannot negotiate its survival with those who trade human life like diplomatic currency.
Freedom is not requested in petitions — it is asserted in destiny. Ekane’s final breath was stolen. But it is a reminder of why we fight — so that no Ambazonian will ever again depend on Yaoundé for the right to breathe.

The death of Georges Anicet Ekane in detention is not a Cameroonian tragedy alone. It is a loud warning — echoing across the rivers and hills of Ambazonia — that Yaoundé does not govern; it eliminates. Ekane’s crime? Not violence. Not corruption. He dared to question the power that has strangled a nation since 1982.
Eyewitness advocacy reports confirm it: The removal of his respirator. The rejection of pleas from his lawyers. A patient executed like a felon. A state that murders its own citizens for speaking is a state that commits genocide without hesitation against a colonized people demanding freedom.
The United Nations — guardians of world conscience — looked away. Western embassies — masters of moral lectures — checked their oil and mining concessions and found no conflict of interest. Their silence is complicity. Their handshake is an accomplice’s fingerprint.
This moment must shatter illusions:
Ambazonia cannot negotiate its survival with those who trade human life like diplomatic currency.
Freedom is not requested in petitions — it is asserted in destiny. Ekane’s final breath was stolen. But it is a reminder of why we fight — so that no Ambazonian will ever again depend on Yaoundé for the right to breathe.
