Angola:Cabinda's Contingent Future

ByLouise Redvers, 1 December 2013

Resources have long been the source of conflict in Africa. Battles for control ofresource-rich territories take many shapes and are waged on many fronts. Nowseparatists in Angola's oil-rich province of Cabinda have turned to stockmarkets overseas to fund their struggle by selling rights to future mineralassets they hope to own one day.

KilimanjaroCapital, incorporated in Belize, based in Calgary, Canada, and listed on theGXG stock exchange in Denmark, offers the chance to invest in lucrative oil andmineral concessions in Cabinda, an area of some 8,000 square kilometresseparated from the rest of Angola by a narrow strip of the Democratic Republicof Congo (DRC)...

"WhatFLEC wants is independence and that is shared by all the people of Cabinda. Ifthere was a referendum tomorrow [on secession], everyone would voteyes." Raul Danda, UNITA member of the Angola Parliament representing Cabinda.

"…Kilimanjaro is certainly a very interesting development because it's somethingexternal and outside the control of the Angolan government. What it is doing isgiving FLEC international exposure and creating an alternative reality that isgoing to put new pressure on the Angolan government; so we must see how theyrespond." Markus Weimer, SeniorAnalyst Africa, Control Risks Group.
