dom fighters Conference in Accra, the UDENAMO was introduced to all freedom fighters
as a mouthpiece of the Mozambique people.
At the same time there was another organization in Dar es Salaam the MANU (Mozambique African National Union) to whom UDENAMO proposed unity. In May 1962, MANU
accepted the formation of the Front and in
June of the same year, the formation at the
Front was confirmed during the Freedom
Fighters Conference in Accra.
There were some difficulties in the formation of the Central Committee of the Front
and at the same time Dr. Mondlane went to
Dar es Salaam and joined the UDENAMO 3
days before the elections. On June 25, 1962,
the Front was formed with Dr. Mondlane as
President, Uria Sinango as Vice President,
Mabunda as Secretary General, Gumane as
Deputy Secretary, Matthew Mole as Treasurer, Malinga as Cultural Secretary and Leo
Milas as Information Secretary.
Before the formation of the Front,
Gwambe expelled Marcelino dos Santos from
UDENAMO when dos Santos was trying to
bring Gwambe to a better understanding of
the political situation.
In September 23-28, the first Congress
was held in Dar es Salaam where the Constitution of FRELIMO was approved. For the
realization of the Congress it was proposed a
Preparatory Committee in order to discuss the
names of the candidates for the Central Committee. In this Congress, some members
were nominated without the approval of the
Congress which resulted in misunderstandings
among the member delegates. Some members
of UDENAMO protested through Mabunda
and Gumane to the Central Committee and
from there resulted the formation of two
groups in the Committee. As a result of misunderstandings, Mabunda, Gumane and others
were expelled.

THE COLONIALIST AND IMPERIALIST
FORCES SUCCEED IN DISORGANIZING
THE FORMATION OF THE FRONT
The expelled members of FRELIMO felt
the necessity of re-organizing themselves and
formed the new UDENAMO. Through the
UDENAMO magazine (COMBATE) the
Central Committee proposed to all nationalists
the formation of a true Front.
WE ARE AGAINST SEPARATISM
We deny the fact of being called separatists because of the formation of the new UDENAMO.
1. UDENAMO was not formed t0 com-
.  pete with other organizations.
2. UDENAMO was formed to protect the
people's rights from stooges.
3. UDENAMO proposes the formation of
a new and loyal Front which v/ill not
be aligned in any military block.
Therefore, until the formation of the new
Front, UDENAMO struggles for :
1. The preparation of the nation to fight
in action.
2. Will not compromise with imperialist
and colonialist forces.
3. Adheres to Pan-Africanism for the
emancipation of the people.
Condemns :
Supporters of reforms which boycott the
peoples struggle.
— condemn people in the struggle who
are fighting not for the nation, but for their
interests.
— Wte condemn those who bring discord
among the masses.
We condemn those who plan to make
useless revolts which will result only in mass
murders by the colonialist forces.
People who plan those useless revolts
don't know anything about the Mozambique
problems and process of Aftican nationalism.
Political consciousness is not enough. We
must create through a .strong organization a
spirit of revolution among the people. This
is the only way to give power to the labourers
and workers of our country.
DOWN WITH RACISM !     .
Racism has been created by colonialism
and imperialism.
We    definitely    refuse   any    imperialist
doctrine.   It cannot survive in our future.
DOWN WITH EXPLOITERS !
Our   struggle  is   against   the  colonialist
police and military forces.
We are against exploitation.    We stand
for unity and freedom for Mozambique.
LONG LIVE MOZAMBIQUE !

ANGOLA
A luta armada dos nacionalistas angolar
nos, avoluma-se e organiza-se cada vez mais.
Os nossos irmãos Angolanos, dirigidos
pelo exercito popular de libertação de Angola
(E.P.L.A.) provocam baixas nas forças colonialistas, i
Os assassinatos em massa das populações
indefesas nao conseguem abater o moral das
forças nacionalistas.
Têm-se registado actos de indisciplina e
algumas deserções por parte de alguns militares do exercito colonialista.
O povo de Moçambique presta homenagem
ao £ovo Angolano seu irmão incitando-o à
luta pela libertação.
Avante, Angolanos ! Até à vitoria !
GUINE
Os nossos irmãos nacionalistas da Guiné
continuam a infligir grandes baixas nas forças
de Salazar.
Têm-se registado algumas deserções de
soldados Portugueses, e alguns actos de indisciplina por parte de certos oficiais.
O desentendimento no seio das forças co-
lonistas tornam maior a certeza da vitoria dos
nossos irmãos nacionalistas da Guiné.
CABO VERDE
Nesta colónia portuguesa à luta continua.
As vitorias conquistadas pelas forças nacionalistas, sao encoraj adoras.
Salazar reabriu o camp0 de concentração
do Tarrafal.
Neste campo de exterminiò cientifico,
morrem lentamente os nossos irmãos Africanos, em numero superior a cem.
E com o auxilio dos governos imperialistas
que Salazar mantém a afressao em Africa.
Continuemos a nossa luta. So ela poderá
libertar Africa do cancro colonialista !
