Cameroon: Chinese lecturers "pullout" from the University of Maroua

Six of the ten Chinese language teachers from the University of Maroua (Uma) have reportedly left the establishment on March 26, 2016 putting some 300 students including more than 250 in the faculty of humanities and about 90 at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in disarray (ENS).

The Chinese made it public that their departure was based on the dangerous security situation in the Far North region of the country. Maroua has been classified by the Chinese Foreign Ministry a red zone of insecurity. 

The rector of the university, Prof Oben Ako Edward hinted that these teachers will reconsider their decision and make a comeback.
