Friends of Angola come thereby alert the international community to the growing risks to political, social and military instability reigning in the current province of Cabinda. We are convinced that only a peaceful solution based on the ethical principles of freedom, dignity, brotherhood and mutual respect can lead to sustainable peace.

Would be in the interest of the Angolan Government to free immediately political prisoners in Angola, in particular, Dr. Jose Marcos Mavungo and all other civic activists. We do believe that the President Dos Santos will take into account the increasing and alarming reports of human rights violations in Angola and will take all necessary measures to protect and ensure the civic and moral integrity of Cabinda citizen.

On behalf of Friends of Angola,

Florindo Chivucute
Executive Director
