Dozens are feared dead following a fire incident that occurred at Livs Nightclub around 3am on Sunday, January 23, in Cameroon’s capital city of Yaoundé.

The nightclub is located in Bastos, considered one of the city’s most prestigious neighbourhoods. Videos on social media showed burnt bodies lying on the ground and other victims being rushed to the hospital.


Though the cause of the incident remains unknown, narratives hold that the outbreak could be linked to gas leakage from an air conditioner in the facility.

Fireworks from the popping of a champagne in the nightclub are reported to have turned into flames as it mixed with gas from inside the nightclub. The nightclub’s management is yet to make any statement.


Cameroon’s Territorial Administration Minister, Paul Atanga Nji; Communication Minister, Rene Emmanuel Sadi; Gendamerie boss, Yves Galax Landry Etoga; and the Governor of the country’s Centre region, Paul Naseri Bea, have so far visited the scene.


However, the exact number of victims, their identities and the amount of damage recorded remain unknown. But Cameroon’s Communication Minister, Rene Emmanuel Sadi, later issued a statement putting the number of those who perished in the incident at 16.


The incident has again raised concerns over safety measures in relaxation spots and the government’s efforts in enforcing them.

Below is a list of names of persons who perished in the incident.
