A LETTER OF TESTIMONY ABOUT MY SON FODJE BOBGA DESMOND.

SIR,

I am a teacher by profession in yaounde where I am renting a house. I have never
been involved in any legal problem. As a widow I struggled to raise my children as a single
parent in the fear of God. I hereby testify that my son Fodje Bobga Desmond has never had
any legal problems in Cameroon till he left for Romania for studies.
Fodje Bobga Desmond is a peace advocate. When the Anglophone crises started in
2016 in Cameroon he stood for peace. Unlike his peers who were scared and could not speak
out against the Ambaxonian fighters (separatists), Bobga stood up and advocated for peace.
Since all peace seekers were and are labeled black legs, I was afraid and begged him to stop.
This did not stop him as he continued to do postings and videos on face book and YouTube
condemning the action of the Ambazonian fighters and the government military.
In 2019 he told me his friend Hosea forwarded a massage from the Ambazonian
fighters which shows that he was amongst the wanted peace seekers. I was so afraid
because advocates for peace are caught, beaten and in most cases killed. He also informed
me when the fighters called and threatened him several times asking him to join them or
send money to support the struggle which he refused.
When he got his visa to Romania, I was happy because to me he will be far away from
the Amba fighters and the Cameroon military. He could not use the normal Cameroonian
route to travel so he had to escape via Nigeria. He took flight from Nigeria to Cameroon then to
Romania because he could not pass through the normal road for fear of been kidnap or arrested.
Thinking it was over, late in 2020 when kids were killed in Kumba, hearing about it in
Romania, he joined with other friends and shared message requesting for peace. The
message was sent to the Amba boys vowed to follow and track him where ever he will go.
So in December 2020 when I travelled to Bali to check on the family compound that
has been abandon since 2018, I was kidnapped by the Amba boys who got me well beaten
and abandon me at the road side. The instruction I was given was that I should tell my son
stop his peace propaganda it not he will pay dearly for it. Those who rescue me took these
pictures here attached. They said if was a warning that the next time, they will kill;. All these
were to force him to support the crises.
I write this testimony in tears as a widow hoping that it will serve the purpose for
which it is intended.

Yours Faithfully.
