Tension continues to mount between separatists and soldiers in Cameroon’s north-west and south-west regions.
It follows a protracted conflict which has led some 500,000 indigenes fleeing the country. Bamenda Brigadier General Agha Robinson Ndong commands 5th Joint Military Region.
The region is desperate at this particular moment.
“I’m telling you again, that we might not be saints, we are not, but we do our best. So the population understands that. We are with them and we’ve come here not only to defend them, to encourage them to develop themselves”, General Ndong said.
The region is burdened with violence and instability by armed separatists who wish to create a breakaway state called Ambazonia.
