A student of Lycée de Ossombah in Edea, Littoral Region of Cameroon is on the run after attacking his classmate with a machete.

According to sources, It all started with a dispute between the two students of ‘terminal A4’ (upper sixth) yesterday Thursday afternoon at about 10:00PM.

“After this heated argument which eventually led to a fight, the two students separated. It was then that the second came back in the night with a machete to kill his opponent,” an MMI French reporter revealed.
