Bamenda Bomb Explosion: “Biya’s aides saw the panic rise in his eyes” 0
The French Cameroun dictator was informed of the explosion of an artisan bomb in Bamenda as he entered his hotel suit in New York City after participating in the 72nd General Assembly of the UN, Cameroon Concord News has learned from a well-placed source at the presidency of the republic. Our informant hinted that Biya’s aides saw panic in his eyes.
Paul Biya after a short telephone conversation with the Secretary General at the presidency, prescribed the reinforcement of the security measures. The so-called CPDM government spokesman and Minister of Communication, Issa Tchiroma was quoted as saying that “As soon as he was informed of the situation, the Head of State … ordered the defence and security forces (…) that special measures be taken to strengthen the security of persons and property, special provisions are in place to ensure a more secure school system 24 hours a day.”
Yaounde has attributed the unclaimed attack to what Etoudi painted as secessionists of the SCNC based in the United States. The Biya Francophone Beti Ewondo regime also pointed out that the Southern Cameroons National Council is a “terrorist” organisation with funding and social media support from the US.
Thursday’s explosion, the third of its kind wounded three in the ranks of the police. The Southern Cameroons Governing Council is slowly but surely preparing for an armed conflict in order to achieve the independence of Southern Cameroons.
