The release of the first six hostages was announced on Monday night by Mark Bareta, a supporter of the secessionist cause active on social networks. The information has been confirmed by some sources contacted today by Journalducameroun.com.

They also said that Chief Njombe, hitherto held captive, has been released.

The fate of these traditional authorities is at the center of a Bakweri march organized by the mayor of Buea, Patrick Ekema. It was to be held at 10:00 on Tuesday, July 31 to mark their opposition to the general conference of Anglophones initiated by Cardinal Christian Tumi.

The march has not started yet. The mobilization of the population is timid. No administrative authority has yet arrived. Only employees of the town hall are present at the starting point of the march, observed the reporter Journalducameroun.com on the spot.
