One of the few remaining pockets of direct colonialism in Africa is French Somaliland, which remains under French domination even though the former colonies of British and Italian Somaliland have been united to form Somalia. Now the Government party of Somalia have made a call for their fellow-countrymen to launch a liberation struggle. In the latest issue of Journal of the Liberation Front of Somali Coast, the people of French Somaliland were urged to strugzle to free themselves from the yoke of colonialism; "struggle is the only means to break slavery" the article stated. It declared that no imperialist force could arrest the march towards liberation, and pointed out thatimperialism and colonialism were getting weaker all the time. "The road to victory lies in unity alone. Only through solid unity can the people surmount the hurdles in their way, defeat the enemy and win finel victory." the article concluded.
