  Hi there,
Hope all is well,since i will be representing
indymidia ambazonia,i will be arriving on the 10th of
this month with my collaborator Bih.
But, if situation change i may have to came then she
follows later. this is because,her passport is still
in the Cameroonian Immigration on processing and may
not match with my date of movement.
We have lot of development on the part of indymidia
ambazonia which will be disclosed on arrival in
nairobi Kenya and i will also keep you informed when i
arriver nairobi to careter for bus services and maters
of accommodation.
 I will get back to you
