Buea-Kumba Road: Many Feared Dead As Separatists Open Fire On Public Transport Bus

By Soulemanu Buba

At least four persons are feared dead and many others seriously wounded after Suspected Separatists opened fire on a bus belonging to ‘Golden Express’ Agency this evening.

The incident happened along the Kumba-Buea road, on Tuesday September 6, 2022.

The wounded were rushed to a health facility for medical attention.

Separatist fighters had earlier declared a lockdown, amid school resumption across the national territory.

This is not the first time civilians are attacked on that stretch of road since the Anglophone crisis degenerated in to an armed conflict in 2017.
