Being
speech delivered by comrade Damian Ogbonna, National Chairman of Peoples
Progressive Party of Nigeria and Chairman African Committee for Friendship and
Solidarity with the Korean People; Thursday 29th December 2016 on
the occasion of the declaration of the formation of the African committee for
Friendship and Solidarity with the Korean People holding at the Embassy of the
Democratic peoples’ Republic of Korea, Abuja, Nigeria.
Today,
we are gathered here for the formation of the African Committee for friendship
and solidarity with the Korean People.
Prominent
Persons participating have made great contributions to the development of
friendship and solidarity between the People of Nigeria and the People of
Korea.
The
African committee for Friendship and solidarity with the Korean People is a
Progressive Organization with the purpose of strengthening the support and
solidarity between the D. P. R. Korean and Africa to oppose domination and
intervention and desire true independence.
In
the past decades, Korean and African Countries had a special friendly
relationship and close cooperation in different fields of politics, economy and
culture.
H.E.
Kim II Song and H.E. Kim Jong II offered selfless material and moral supports
to African countries struggling for national independence and building new
societies.
The
progressive African countries admire the socialist system of Korean facing all
kinds of sanctions and challenges by the US-led imperialist’s regimes and for
this reason; we express international support and solidarity toward the
struggle of the Korean people.
So
many countries are paving the road to their true independence while
strengthening the friendly cooperation rejecting the subjugation and
interference of imperialists, and thus, it became a global trend.
However,
in the international arena, there still remains a high-handedness based on
military and financial mighty and so justice and true are being trampled
ruthlessly. The imperialists persist on the interference and war moves
threatening the independence of the sovereign states.
Here
in Africa, the western imperialists are trying to set up pro-western regimes by
imbuing them with their policies, system and culture and the other hand , continuing
to suppress the sovereign counties in the continent.
The
Korean people, firmly rallied behind their supreme leader Kim Jong Un, are
vigorously struggling for the construction of a socialist powerful nation and
changing the existing armistice agreement to a permanent peace agreement, and
for the independent reunification of the Korean peninsula.
The
D.P.R. Korean became a nuclear power of the East which is able to manufacture
and launch its own artificial satellites to cope with the nuclear threat of US
and demonstrated its dignity and strength to the highest level.
The
formation of the African committee for the friendship and solidarity with the
Korean People is a great significance in our struggle for independence, against
the domination and subordination under the ideals of independence, friendship
and peace.
From
now on, the committee will actively support Korean people who are struggling to
safeguard global peace and security and promote common prosperity of mankind
and will conduct activities for strengthening friendship and solidarity
throughout the African continent.
We
extend our warm congratulations. H. E. Kim Jong Un on the 5th
occasion of the election of His Excellency as the supreme commander of the
Korean People’s Army and his birthday, and the New Year greetings to H. E. Kim
Jong Un.
