The intelligence service of the Rapid Intervention Battalion (BIR) over the week end arrested the son of famous CPDM parliamentarian for Mayo-Sava Division, Hon. Abba Malla. Ndjidda Abba was caught with friends in Mora in the Far North Region and he and the other members of his gang have been transferred to Maroua, the chief city in the Far North Region.
Our informant revealed that Ndjidda Abba served as a negotiator between the Cameroon government and Boko Haram. Cameroon intelligence services were able to establish that he assisted Boko Haram fighters changed registration numbers of their cars, mobile telephone cards and identified banks that were robbed by Boko Haram. A highly placed CPDM official who spoke to us and sued for anonymity noted that it is very worrying to see children from CPDM families participating in terror.

Cameroon Concord understands that the Cameroon military responded with heavy fire. No casualties have been reported from the rocket attacks. Meanwhile a Cameroon military briefing in the nation’s capital Yaounde ended in disarray as some journalists disputed what was made public by Cameroon’s army spokesman Colonel Badjeck Didier.
