Bui: Top Ranking Military Official Killed

By Soulemanu Buba

A top ranking military official has been killed in Bui, restive North West Region of Cameroon.

Reports from Kumbo say, the brigade commander, who has relentlessly fought against Separatists clamouring for an independent state called ‘Ambazonia’ was killed early Thursday.

“He was killed on the night of Wednesday breaking Thursday, August 11, 2022, by separatist fighters. Separatists used the commander’s girlfriend to lure him into their trap,” a source told MMI.

His name has not yet been revealed to the press.

This is coming barely weeks after the Brigade commander for Mbiame, Bakodock Richard was killed by Separatist fighters.

It is not clear if his remains have been retrieved or not.
