From the mortuary to the family compound where he was buried, the atmosphere was filled with grief as all and sundry continued to mourn the painful ‘untimely’ exit of a young promising journalist.
During the removal of the corpse from the Bamenda Regional Hospital mortuary, the director of the hospital Dr Denis Nsame joined mourners to bid farewell to Anye Nde Nsoh.
He regretted that Anye was brought to the hospital when he had already died and the hospital was not privileged to save his life.
“It is really a sad situation that the staff of the regional hospital Bamenda had no chance to even give any treatment. Only the services of the mortuary received our brother,” Said Dr. Denis Nsame.
He revealed that the hospital has received forty cases of gunshots in the first quarter of this year.
“Just to mention that during the first quarter of this year at the emergency unit, we have received forty cases of gunshots and 20 cases at the mortuary. It is a sad situation we are living in,” Dr. Nsame added.
Before proceeding with the corpse, media professionals made a stopover at the spot where Anye was shot dead at Che Street Ntarinkon and lit candles in his honour.
Leading the candle-lighting moment, Muma Jude, Northwest Chapter President of the Cameroon Association of English Speaking Journalists, {CAMASEJ) lamented that Anye left the media and the world too soon.
“Anye left us without us knowing that it was going to be too soon. We use candles in our own way to celebrate this hero,” Muma Jude said.
Mourners then thronged the road leading to Bangmande in Mankon to bid a final farewell to the late Anye.
While in Bangmande, family members, media colleagues, friends, and sympathisers paid tribute to the slain journalist as he was lowered in a Christian way led by the Presbyterian Church in Cameroon where he worshipped.
