We must stand firm in our conviction that independence and federalism cannot be reconciled
Something sneaky is unfolding in Ambazonia’s struggle for independence, and it is time to blow the whistle. At the beginning of this year, I sounded the alarm, urging Ambazonians to recognize a window of opportunity—a rare alignment of political events that could favor our cause.The crumbling political structure in Cameroon, coupled with a shift in leadership in the United States, presents a moment that true patriots would seize. This should have been a time for unity, for consolidating our efforts under the Ambazonia Consultative Commission (ACC), a front already in motion to align our independence movement. Instead, we are witnessing…
Washington, D.C – U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin have agreed to initiate immediate negotiations aimed at ending the ongoing war in Ukraine. This decision follows a “lengthy and highly productive” phone conversation between the two leaders, marking their first direct engagement since the conflict began in February 2022.President Trump emphasized the urgency of resolving the conflict, stating, “We have also agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately.” He expressed confidence in the potential for a peaceful resolution, noting that both he and President Putin recognize the need to end the extensive loss of lives.Following…
When Bill O’Reilly was forced out of Fox News after dominating prime-time cable television for nearly two decades, the media world braced for a seismic shift. O’Reilly had not just built a show—he had established an institution. The O’Reilly Factor was more than a time slot; it was a fortress of opinion journalism, a powerhouse that made Fox News the undisputed leader in cable news ratings.So when he exited, many believed Fox would struggle to hold onto its prime-time dominance. The competition was circling like vultures, ready to devour the audience O’Reilly left behind. But then came Tucker Carlson.Carlson took…
Paul Biya: How much longer can Cameroonians watch their nation wither under a man who no longer knows where he is?
In the chronicles of global leadership, American presidents come, lead, and leave. The dignity of democratic transitions, the acceptance of mortality and human frailty, and the embrace of generational renewal define their exits. But in Cameroon, Paul Biya came, ruled, and conquered—seizing power like a medieval monarch and refusing to let go, even at the crumbling age of 92. As 2025 dawns, with the specter of yet another election in Cameroon, Biya is not only still in power but is maneuvering to extend his stranglehold for another seven years.A man whose tenure has outlived multiple generations of Cameroonians, Biya has…
Houston, Texas – One of the most pressing challenges Africa faces today is migration, particularly from conflict zones such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), the Cameroons, the Sahel region, Sudan, and Ethiopia. The exodus of African migrants—many of whom risk their lives on perilous journeys to Europe or the United States through the Mexico route—is not just a matter of seeking greener pastures. It is a direct consequence of governance failures, systemic corruption, and political persecution.President Trump frequently highlighted Congolese migrants during his campaigns, framing them as a major issue. However, he never addressed the root cause…
Yaounde – In a desperate bid to derail the just and legitimate struggle of the Ambazonian people, CRTV (Cameroon’s State-owned Radio and Television) has once again resorted to its trademark weapon of deceit: a propaganda charade featuring faceless and nameless individuals purportedly denouncing the Ambazonian Restoration Forces (ARF). This orchestrated circus, paraded under the program “Cameroon Crumbling,” or is it (Cameroon Calling?), is nothing more than a pitiful attempt to rewrite the narrative of the Southern Cameroons struggle for liberation.CRTV, the mouthpiece of a crumbling regime in Yaoundé, seeks to exploit the vulnerabilities of the Ambazonian people by airing anonymous…
Houston – It is both disheartening and revolting to have witnessed so-called Anglophone chiefs gathered in Yaoundé on January 27, to spearhead the endorsement of Paul Biya for yet another term in office. In doing so, they showcase a level of moral bankruptcy and self-serving cowardice that insults the very people they claim to represent. These chiefs—displaced from their ancestral lands by the same regime they now glorify—have chosen to ignore the cries of their communities, trading dignity for fleeting favors from a dictator’s table.For over eight years, Paul Biya has presided over the destruction of Ambazonia, a region that…
As African Leaders Gather in Addis Ababa to Pick a New Chairperson, They are Reminded That it is Time For a Leadership That Represents True Pan-Africanism
Houston, Texas – As African leaders converge in Addis Ababa next month to elect the next chairperson of the African Union (AU), the stakes could not be higher. For decades, the AU has claimed to be the voice of the continent, yet its record is marred by chronic inaction, misplaced priorities, and an alarming tendency to align with foreign interests rather than address the urgent needs of its people. This is the moment to demand bold leadership capable of transforming the AU from a toothless institution into a genuine agent of change. Now is the time to redefine the AU’s…
Houston – Cameroon is teetering on the edge of a storm, its fragile unity fraying under the weight of internal conflicts and political neglect. While the war in Ambazonia continues to drain the country’s resources and morale, ominous signs of unrest are brewing in the Far North. Recent events in Maroua, where a large cache of military gear and bomb-making materials was confiscated, have set alarm bells ringing. Among the haul were automatic rifles, tear gas canisters, and chemicals suspected to be used for explosives—tools not of peace but of war.Authorities in Yaoundé were quick to dismiss the find, attributing…
Houston, TX – Paul Biya’s recent New Year address to the people of Cameroon was a glaring display of insensitivity and detachment, underscoring the tragic reality of a leader far removed from the struggles of his citizens. At 91 years old, with 42 years of autocratic rule behind him, Biya’s address not only defied reason but also added salt to the wounds of a nation in turmoil. His audacious call for Ambazonian fighters to lay down their arms and his tacit announcement of yet another bid for office reveals a leader who is both out of touch and wholly unconcerned…
