Ambazonia’s human ties across the Mungo must not prevent Ambazonians from defending their dignity, their institutions, their identity, and their future. Bloodlines matter in families. Roots belong to biography. Justice matters in nations. Strategic interest belongs to statecraft. And when a people’s survival is at stake, strategic interest must come first.
