I Asked For Transfer From Tiko To Yaounde For Fear Of My Life.

Kingsly Same is being tried together with Mancho Bibixy, Tsi Conrad, Thomas Awah and those suspected of instigating the protests last July 22 2019 in Kondengui.
Alobwede Van Kingsly Same was arrested in Tiko on the 8 of January 2017 in connection with the Anglophone crises. “I was accused of recruiting Boys to fight against the Government to form our own country, Ambazonia,” he told Mimi Mefo Info.
He continued that he was taken to the police station in Tiko transferred to Buea the following day.
“In Buea i spent 16 days then i was later transfered to Yaounde Judicial Police on the 24th January 2017 and then to Kondengui central prison on the 14 of February 2017”.
His case like those of other detainees of the Anglophone crisis has suffered several adjournments.
“I was taken to court several times, my lawyers including Pa Ben Muna And Hon. Mbah Ndam Tried to defend me several ways but the Court finally forced injustice on me and i was sentenced on the 16th of mach 2018 to 13years. The court declared me guilty of the following:
