Douala Tragedy: Government to demolish other buildings within neighbourhood

By Washira Helene

The government set to destroy a number of houses in the Cite Sicam neighbourhood behind mobile Guinness after a 4-storey building collapsed in the early hours of Sunday, July 23, 2033,
leaving more than 40 people dead with dozens in the hospital.

The buildings are said to be badly constructed with low-quality building materials.

Many have questioned why such a decision is taken just now after the tragedy.
