Thousands flee violence in Southern Cameroons 0
Thousands of people are fleeing unrest in English-speaking areas of southern Cameroon into southern Nigeria.
The government has banned public gatherings, suspended transportation and shut businesses as activists seek a state independent from the majority French-speaking areas.
The more than 30,000 refugees now in southern Nigeria are being looked after by the Nigeria refugee agency and a few non-governmental organizations.
But many say they don’t have much to eat or anywhere suitable to live.
