Meme SDO survives Ambazonian fighters’ attack
The SUN Newspaper, Cameroon:The Senior Divisional Officer, SDO for Meme, Chamberlain Ntou’ou Ndong has on Tuesday January 16, 2018 survived an attack by Ambazonian freedom fighters at his GRA up station residence, Kumba.
The incidence took place at about 2:40am but was quickly brought under control by military officers guarding his abode
Reports hold that one Ambazonian soldier spotted by military men at the SDO’s residence disregarded orders for him to stop but, rather made for the door. They shot at him severally after the first bullet failed to take life out of him. The unidentified guy fled into the bushes, strengthening the belief they are impenetrable by bullets.
He was however apprehended by the uniform officers and during interrogation, the Ambazonian soldier disclosed that he had been sent by his boss to monitor the officers stationed at the SDO’s residence for them to plan their attack.
The SUN could not get the name of the ‘odeshi’ fighter (local appellation for someone who is impenetrable by bullets) because according to Meme SDO, he had no identification documents on him when he was caught.
He was later taken to the Kumba Central Police Station for further investigations. Meanwhile, reasons why the SDO’s residence was targeted are yet to be known.
Our sources disclosed that the gang of fighters who were hiding some kilometers from the SDO’s residence waiting for an alert from their colleague disappeared when they realized he had been apprehended.
