Libyan security forces said on Tuesday that the bodies of 16 migrants had been found in the desert near the country’s border with Egypt.

The bodies were found about 310 km (190 miles) southwest of the coastal city of Tobruk, said Ahmed al-Mismari, spokesman for the eastern-based Libyan National Army.

He said the area was still being searched and no more details were available about the migrants’ identities.

In the past, patrols and rescuers have recovered the bodies of Egyptian migrants who have perished after being stranded or abandoned by smugglers in Libya’s eastern desert.

Some migrate to Libya to search for work, and some try to reach Europe by boat.

CRTV female journalist Adele, was present today 4 September 2017 for the 8:30pm bilingual newscast alongside Benn Pufong, after Cameroons match against Nigeria.

She resumed work on a day when she would continue presenting the lies of the state owned media organ; in this case, about school resumption. In a report during the news cast, the Minister of Secondary Education Ernest Ngalle Bibehe, falsely said school was effective in the South West Region, where he had gone to launch the resumption of the new school year. This was equally the case of other parts of the country that were reported to have had smooth school re-opening including the North West Region which was observing effective ghost towns.

Adele Mbala comes back after she was sidelined on 15 May 2017, for reading a fake list of members of the new French government under Emmanuel Macron. She will take over from Evelyne Essomba, who has been presenting the 8:30pm news, while she was away.

President Paul Biya has ordered a stop to the trial of all those who were arrested in the North West and South West Regions in the wake of the Anglophone Crisis and order for their immediate release.

The detainees who have been yawning in detention at the Kondengu Prison in Yaounde will now regain their freedom.

Biya’s order is contained in a press release signed on Wednesday, August 30, by the Secretary General at the Presidency of the Republic, Ferdinand Ngoh Ngoh. 

The decree, which was made public by the State, orders the authorities concerned to set free the Anglophone leaders, who have been held for close to eight months.

The Anglophone leaders had called for a protection of an eroding Anglo-Saxon legal system and falling standards of the Anglophone educational system.

They also championed civil disobedience against marginalisation and called for equality between the Anglophone and Anglophone dispensations in the country.

The leaders of the trade unions championing such demands were arrested on January 17 and charged with terrorism and attempts to destabilise the country among other treasonable offences.

The Government reacted with highhandedness and shutdown internet in the two Regions to prevent activists from using social media to pass on information despite pressure from the international community like the United Nations, civil society organisations, opposition political parties, church leaders requesting for the unconditional release of the Anglophone detainees, the Government remained unperturbed.

Biya’s August 30 fiat has therefore, doused the mounting tension and perilous atmosphere that reigned in the country.
