From the occupying Angolan regime, notorious for its corruption, human rights record, and the criminal use of the State and the economy, there is nothing good to expect.

Cabinda, unlawfully occupied by Angola since 1975, where more than half of Angola’s oil is produced and from where Angola earns practically all of its foreign exchange, is also the source of over 70 percent of Angola’s national Budget. In oil alone, the invaders of Cabinda get over 35 billion euros per year in royalties, essentially paid by Chevron’s wholly owned subsidiary Cabinda Gulf Oil Company Ltd. (CABGOC). Though the natives of Cabinda do not exceed two million, life expectancy at birth has dropped from 75 years in Portuguese colonial era to 48 years nowadays; child and maternal mortality rates now figure among the highest in the world; rubbish dumped here and there have become children’s last resort; and a hospital bed is for at least four patients.

The conclusion is that there is nothing good to expect from the occupying regime, which is notorious for its corruption, its human rights record, and its criminal use of the State and the economy.

Hence, the oppressed People of Cabinda are recruiting experienced international lawyers to refer the “legal-political problem” between Cabinda and Angola to an International Court of Justice, and eventually regain their political and economic sovereignty, i.e. to take matters into their own hands.

Please join the oppressed people of Cabinda in their call on Germany, Portugal, and other UN member States to assume their international responsibility in pursuance of Article 35 of the Charter of the United Nations.

Thank you very much for your time, your empathy, and help in this matter.

Cabinda: The German International Responsibility

Cabinda: The German International Responsibility Author: Bartolomeu Capita Joint-Presidency, Cabindan National Movement The invasion and unlawful occupation of Cabinda by “Angola” in 1974/75 is actually the result of the long-standing imperialistic rivalry between France and Germany. Germany is called upon to assume her international responsibility under Article 35 of the Charter of the United Nations, in order to put an end to the political repression, economic exploitation, and social degradation the occupation entails.

Those to whom democracy, the rule of law, human rights, and international peace and security really matter, cannot help admitting that the occupation of Cabinda by Angola is the major contributing factor to the political insecurity and instability in southern Africa. The proof is that, so far, two incumbent presidents have been killed; five have been forc

Injustice in Cabinda is a Threat to Justice in Germany

Mr. Clemens Tönnies’ supposed Racism is far less detrimental to Africans than the Passive Racism of the Governments that do nothing to end Injustice in Africa. “When Hitler decreed prejudice against Negroes, Germans obediently went through the motions of being prejudiced toward Negroes. Consequently, since racial bias against Negroes is not in the German history or character, racial prejudice in Germany is something that one can turn on and off at will.” ― Roi Ottley, African-American Reporter [1] Dear Dr. Uschi Eid, President of the German Africa Foundation, Not long ago, Mr. Clemens Tönnies, the chairman of a leading German football club, i.e. Schalke, made “unintentional racist comments” while disapproving tax increases to fight climate change. As a substitute of tax increases, he proposed that the money be used to finance 20 power plants a year in Africa. “Then the Africans would stop cutting down trees, and

ANGOLA: Agostinho Neto e Lúcio Lara desprovidos da confiança de Brezhnev!

Agostinho Neto e o MPLA falharam e não farão senão continuar a falhar, porque ambos foram moldados para fazer de Angola um Estado e uma Nação falidos. Os Egos e a falta lamentável de auto-confiança expuseram Neto e o MPLA à manipulações. Estas suscitaram neles interes-ses individualistas que impediram de ter uma visão objectiva do perigo que espreita Angola. Tendo em vista os factores externos que causaram a desgraça nacional angolana, assim como a frivolidade dos ditos intelectuais (assimilados) angolanos, é indiscutível que nenhum partido e nenhum político angolano está em posição de salvar Angola do actual estado de coisas. As dívidas contraídas pela ditadura do MPLA são por si só um obstáculo intransponível. Faça o favor de ler o documento na íntegra ! E agradece-lhe pelo seu tempo e empatia, o nobre Povo e Nação Cabinda! https://cabindapeoplesvoicehome.files.wordpress.com/2021/03/neto-e-lara-sem-a-confianca-de-brezhnev.pdf
