Southern Cameroons Restoration: Profiling Dr. Ayaba Cho Lucas

Profiling Ayaba Cho:
.."To the students who continue to struggle for democracy, freedom of assembly, speech, and the protection of human dignity, you are not on your own - the struggle has just started, let's keep walking" Dr. Ayaba Cho Lucas. (SAIH Norway, Sep 2013).
Following his historic speech at the march in New York, I have had tons of questions about Ayaba Cho?
Truth is he did not just pop up from somewhere, here is a synopsis.
------
In 1993 the first batch of the university of Buea was immatriculated, though the university had no class rooms, laboratories, library, restaurants or even lavatories, the government of Cameroun decided to increase the tuition to 550 thousand Franc CFA.
Following this raise, parents and students of Southern Cameroons resisted and under the student union leadership the stratagem was stalled. The regime of Paul Barthelemy Biya responded with the dismissal of the Student Union President – Ebenezer Derek Mbongo Akwanga, Jr., and dissolved the Student Union.
Ayaba Cho in his early days of activism as a student of chemistry in the university of Buea, led a one man demonstration that took the university by surprise. He was expelled from the university and banned from attending any higher institution of learning in Cameroun.
He later took flight to Europe after escaping jail sentence in Cameroun. In Germany and the UK, he sought refuge and pursued higher education under very difficult circumstances. Cho Lucas changed his path of learning from chemistry to Public law with concentration in Human rights law in which he earned his Phd. His journey in education, activism, and protection of human rights has continued since then.

Dr. Ayaba Lucas, is currently the Secretary General of the Southern Cameroons Youth League (SCYL) & also a leader in the Ambazonia Governing Council. He likes to see himself as a foot soldier. Recently he has been seen forging a united platform with various actors in this struggle. He believes in working together collectively. Eventhough as a foot soldier his personality is something that makes him a leader in the struggle. "A warm hearted person who speaks eloquently his points, take action and argues with facts" as described by an observer.
