We have come a long way through bondage and betrayal. Today, Africa stands at a crossroads. This is the moment to return to our roots, to embrace our ancestral identity, and to break the final chains of mental slavery. We are Africans. We must live as Africans, think as Africans, and reclaim the dignity that
In every national rebirth, there are those who build, those who boast, and those who betray. Ambazonia met all three. But one group preserved the nation: the builders of the Federal Republic. When the day comes, when the anthem rises, when the borders shift, when justice prevails, history will note one fact above all: Ambazonia
France—once proud, and now desperate—continues to hold his trembling hand, terrified that when he falls, the truth about Ambazonia’s stolen sovereignty will stand.

At the 849th meeting of the Fourth Committee on 25 February 1959, Mr. Ahidjo declared: “We are not annexationists. If our brothers of the British zone wish to unite with independent Cameroun, we are ready to discuss the matter with them, but we will do so on a footing of equality.” By Celeste Maddox Before
The passing of Law No. 24/61 and Ahidjo’s repeated statements leave no doubt: no federation was ever formed between LRC and the British Southern Cameroons. Before 1 October 1961, LRC had already transformed itself into a so-called “federal” state — unilaterally. By Celeste Maddox Even with the illegality of the Foumban meeting, no agreement was
