Unveiling Tomorrow's Cameroon Through Today's News

Breaking

A FEMALE would-be suicide bomber has been killed with a poisoned arrow by local residents in Cameroon.

Authorities in the Far North Region  say the woman, who was later found to have explosives strapped to her body, was shot with the deadly projectile by members of a local self-defence group after she failed to stop when challenged.

Midjiyawa Bakary, the Governor of the Far North Region where the incident happened, said the 40-year-old terrorist had crossed the notorious border from Nigeria before the attempted attack.

 Bakary added that she was accompanied by a 14-year-old girl who was also killed after detonating her own explosives.
