        You don't learn to live in peace when there's no freedom. With freedom comes peace. Until #Ambazonia have her independence as voted for in April 1961's UNGA resolution 1608, until frenchCameroon stops #Annexation #BlackOnBlackColonization of #Ambazonia they shall know no peace

        It all began in 1884 when men converged in Berlin to partition people with artificial borders. I am Igbo with a unique culture that is older than most European countries combined, but some English man who cannot tolerate a Russian would expect me to live with a Fulani bc Africa?

        These countries are failed states, and will remain so for a Very, very long time. Most international agencies and governments don't care. Africa is going backwards, it's so sad.

        They are not rebels , if the military did not start this craziness of using excessive force on civilians there wouldn’t be so called “rebels”. So people are not allowed to fight back when they know their human rights are being stripped away from them ? Please report facts

        You cannot govern people against their will or by forces it will only lead to blood shade, the only way to seek people's will is dialogue ,talks and negotiations to find the lasting solution.
