On May 9, 2026, The African Federation's Wellness Focus Unit invites you to a high-level Zoom Event titled “Breaking the Colonial Chains: Decentralising Foreign Influence for True Health Sovereignty.” Register here to be part of that important conversation.

African Leadership Spotlight | Ruben Um Nyobé
12pm GMT | 1pm WAT | 2pm CAT | 3pm EAT

Most historical narratives overlook the architects of true mental and political emancipation. The African Federation's Cameroon Country Chapter invites you to revisit the legacy of one of Africa’s most influential yet underrepresented figures. Ruben Um Nyobè, the founding figure of the Union des Populations du Cameroun (UPC), Um Nyobè embodied leadership grounded in truth, sacrifice, and alignment with the people. Despite his commitment to nonviolence and legal diplomacy, his movement was met with repression, leading to his assassination in 1958. A turning point in the struggle for a sovereign Cameroon. Register here to participate.
