A-G OF SCHOOL RESUMPTION: THE STAKES & SIGNIFICANCE
In the drought of any freedom quest, like ours, not all battles are fought for victory, not every opportunity is sought for profit, and not all necessities are bought with fund & gun. The many encounters in the toughness & roughness of circumstances are wrought in the vivacity of the will to be free. More importantly, anything (person, estate or place), however ordinary, that becomes a battlefront/battlefield must be given a revolutionary if only to express the extraordinary times. Education is a right and necessity, but for several reasons, many countries have had to justifiably suspend the academic year or overhaul the educational system. However, knowing that education is a political estate, why is School Resumption one of the battlegrounds in the Revolution or what’s at stake in school reopening, in Southern Cameroons? This is simply what everyone must know, and it’s not intended to create a debate on the central position of the academic system in the fight for Freedom. Perhaps, it should be pointed out that while almost every knowledge & opportunity lost in the suspension of an academic year may be recovered with time, the lost of lives and all that is attributed to human existence are irrecoverable in the countless sacrifices made already. Know the following before exclaiming on the rights, necessity & value of education:
A) TERRITORIAL CONTROL;
There’s no area of greater sociopolitical sensitivity in a nation than the academic sphere. The educational system is the most consequential battle front for ideological warfare; this is not limited to ideas, methods & scope in the frontiers of awareness, but identity, opportunity & confidence exposed to political victims & survival. The Enemy most luxurious claim that she’s in charge of the country is openly & clearly ridiculed by the Revolution’s Authority over schools & academic programs in Southern Cameroons. Compromise this Authority and the most announced power of territorial influence is ceded to the Enemy Regime. The school crisis is the most opened and clearly watched battleground that can not be concealed by propaganda. The world, at least, knows and would like to talks about the Revolution, pretentiously, perhaps, as it deals with education. Apart from this they may deny the entire existence and claims of the Revolution.
B) LEGITIMACY OF THE REVOLUTION;
By passing decisions and resolutions which the people willingly obey signifies that one has a legitimate authority. This is the most frustrating aspect to the Enemy Regime, and it’s the most resounding declaration of the will of the people that gives the Revolution its decent outlook.
C) FUNDS, PATRONAGE & ROYALTY;
The educational system is a major source of funding and charity for African Regimes; This is the most persuasive and attractive tap disposed to neo-colonialism. Shutting down schools means depriving the Enemy Regime from accessing dependable foreign donations and wealth from UNESCO, UNICEF, COMMONWEALTH, USAID etc. Also, the crucial partnership between LRC and Western Nations is around education. Close the school; Shut the tap and stop the pool from drowning the people.
D) EXODUS;
Citizens of LRC origin have been imported and transported to tilt the population equilibrium to the advantage of the Enemy interest. It’s time to send them home; shutting down schools provides the most convincing and decent opportunity to achieve this. The Enemy regime have erected schools either with the bilingual character or as mainly frebch oriented technical institutions across the land to breed and spread her citizens. Exodus must be activated, if not by violence then by whatever decent means disposed to the Revolution. By closing schools across the territory, it will be their urgent, desirable and single decision to return home. Therefore Activate Exodus under Operation Moses.
E) POLITICAL IMAGERY;
The argument about keeping schools open with regards the Revolution is that it will demonstrate that the leadership is civilized and appear without guilt before the international community. Certainly, no one thinks about the many hazards and consequences of war that might result in the dead of pupils or students and blamed on the Revolution. What image will such accidents or incidents creates? The Enemy doesn’t care about the education of our kids, but the political opportunities presented by education and the process of learning. As a reminder, the international community is not moved by the moral image of a political cause else Delai Lama would have given independence to his people. The Enemy may stage anything, kill any number of students and blame it on the Revolution.
F) FAITH VERSUS FATE;
There’s faith that through learning some of our kids would acquire values, attain standards and best challenges, but what has become the fate of the vast majority of us? The fate of almost every one of our political Identity rest on the Revolution. This is the only guarantee for our survivability, as a people.
G) RIGHTS, NECESSITY, VALUE & PROBITY;
The wealth of Education under LRC is less compared to the worth of Freedom promised by the Revolution. With the type & form of awareness afforded and accorded to us victims of politics, there can only be greater Density and poorer Destiny. The educated open us up for assimilation and exploitation; Those who reason beyond the defined and permissible limits have regretted their education. They will keep coming to take over while we will keep crossing to seve them. While they come with power, money, confidence; We go with vulnerability, poverty and conscience. Education in our pockets will never mean thesame thing, never have equal value, and never unlock thesame padlocks on the political doors of opportunity.
Lastly, the Revolution must be pledged to school resumption in areas controlled by restoration forces. And agreed to similar terms across the territories if to do so will spread its influence, under the condition that the curriculum is approved by the Educational board and without the use of the French Language in the Southern Cameroons. If the Revolution has access to schools and can provoke ceaseless strike actions in many institutions then it’s also strategic, but what if the Enemy Regime mobilizes & induce these most vulnerable public (pupils & students) for continuous PEACE/UNITY demonstrations to sabotage the Revolution as they do always? Whatever decision that is made must be done for the survival and interest of the Revolution.

Comrade DON WAN-OBI, I wanted to read on and on. Those who are asking for school resumption are mostly trolls and some few people of Southern Cameroonian descent who want to play Saint. This is a revolution and things are not the way it ideally would. There shall be no school resumption in Ambazonia until have have rendered our country safe and implement school curricula that will take care of today’s needs of the world. Ambazonians are visionaries, looking at long term overall benefit and not the even no-short-term-benefit of school in frenchCameroUn. School in frenchCameroUn is religious (faith) regardless of what is thought in school just because people in other parts of the world go to school. In Ambazonia, school will combine faith and fate, the later achieved through curricula that will make students competitive on world stage and meeting their aspirations. Not to graduate with a BSc in Histroy/Geography/botany/journalism etc and end up retailing mobile phone credits on road sides, riding Okada etc. Note: I have respect for all those who do the above menial jobs if tthat’s what they have chosen to do in life, just that it is not what 99% of them went to school to do for livelihood. Stay the course brothers and sisters, your lives are going to change for the better and for ever in not too long future.
and you will be the light bringer. Lol you are just on your normal state of mind like many of your citizen. But can you tell me in which part in the facebook world ambasonia country is mapped? Because I have been looking for it on earth in Africa couldn’t see none and in s.w.and n.w I was still asked the Cameroonian Id card. Thank for your response dear Bali nyonga
Dougghy, I will respond to you for the first and last time out of politeness if you don’t already know me on this platform. Just so you know, I am not the type who does not know his left from his right. If you are looking for someone to preoccupy, search elsewhere. East Timor, Somaliland, Namibia, Eritrea etc had low energy shit-no-whip-lass people like you trying to discourage them. I do not respond to trolls. In fact, I “Never argue with a fool. They will drag you down to their level and beat you through experience” Mark twain. Palestinian travel with Israelis passports but they are are not Israelis. I consider this closed and will not respond to you.
