CWN Editor's Note: Archbishop Andrew Nkea Fuanya of Bamenda, Cameroon, tells Crux that the priests and religious of his archdiocese are “ready to die for the Gospel.”

The Bamenda archdiocese covers the Anglophone regions of the African country, which have seen years of bloody ethnic conflict. But the archbishop emphasizes that the cause of separatism, and the dislocations caused by the conflict, are “not problems of evangelization,” and therefore do not change the essence of the Church’s mission. “They are social problems, but they don’t touch our spreading the Gospel,” he explains.
