A video has emerged showing a supposed secondary teacher in captivity in the hands of boys who identify themselves as separatist fighters in the North West region of Cameroon.

The teacher Polycarb Guyem has been accused by the boys for being a traitor by accepting to work on Monday, ghost town day in the North West and South West regions of Cameroon.

The Ministry of Secondary Education in Cameroon has not issued any official statement following the kidnap of the invigilator.
