Archives The Cameroon military has been faulted for killing four teenagers in Meta Quarters, a locale in Mankon, Cameroon’s northwestern city of Bamenda.
The Voice and other local media outlets quoted eyewitnesses as saying that soldiers killed the quartet point-blank around 2:00 pm on Saturday, January 23, 2021.
The soldiers were in search of armed separatists in the area when the incident happened.
Three of the four victims, Ngalim Alucious, Ntakah Nelly Mbah, and Sale Sadam are residents of Old Town while the fought, Brian, lived in Meta Quarters.
According to eyewitnesses, soldiers found the teenagers smoking weed in an uncompleted building.
Reserved On Sunday, January 24, 2021, the Mafors (Queen Mothers) and mothers of the North West again converged on the Bamenda Grandstand to mourn and deplore the killings resulting from what has come to be known today as the Anglophone crisis.
They came from Bambili, Bambui, Nkwen, Mendankwe, Ndu, and Akum among other areas. As usual, they prayed, mourned, and sent messages to the belligerents in their local languages. Peace, they said, is the only thing they want.
They added that the ongoing crisis is only taking us as a region backward. In her exhortation, Rev. Caroline Memo urged the various churches to speak out against this scourge that has imposed untold suffering on our people. She warned that by not speaking out we are encouraging the war.
Ndi Tsembom No fewer than 60 girls and 73 boys are seeking alternative accommodation at Presbyterian Secondary School, PSS, Mankon after their dormitories went up in flames in under 24 hours.
Three students were injured when the boys dormitory went up in flames at about 8:30 pm on Friday, January 22, 2021.
Around the same time on Saturday, January 23, 2021, the girls dormitory also went up in flames.
Authorities have ruled out the possibility of an electrical fault.
Preliminary reports suggest that armed separatists operating in the area set the dormitories on fire. This supposition is supported by the fact that elements of the Army Rescue, on their way to PSS Mankon Saturday night, came under attack from separatist fighters.
