A massive fire erupted at Efoulan neighbourhood in Yaounde this Monday evening after a fuel tanker crashed in the area.

The fuel-carrying tanker overturned near the crossroads in Efoulan, just before reaching the area known as Club France.

The crash triggered an extensive blaze that rapidly spread to nearby buildings, causing significant material damage.

Firefighters quickly arrived at the scene, battling the flames to prevent further devastation.

Despite their efforts, the fire inflicted substantial damage on surrounding structures and vehicles.

Fortunately, there have been no reports of human casualties, and the full extent of the material damage is still being assessed.

The exact cause of the accident remains unclear at this time. Authorities are investigating the incident to determine the factors that led to the tanker’s overturning and subsequent fire.

This incident adds to a grim week in Cameroon, marked by numerous road accidents that have claimed several lives.

The government has recently imposed sanctions on various transport agencies and their drivers in response to these tragic events, with the aim of enhancing road safety and preventing future accidents.

Mimi Mefo Info (MMI) is an Independent online news reporting network based in the UK, Germany & Cameroon. We have reporters across most of Cameroon’s ten regions, bringing you independent news on a daily basis. MMI is not affiliated with any government or organisation. As such, we report the news with objectivity, aiming to encourage freedom of the press and expression, hold authorities to account, and encourage a system of citizen journalism where Cameroonians from all works of life can get their stories told.

Despite the hostile media environment in Cameroon, where journalists are constantly, harassed, arrested, or killed, MMI believes that the only way to overcome this is to create a structure of reporting, where journalists are free to work, without jeopardising their safety. Hence, while MMI is registered in the UK and has its top management out of Cameroon, the journalists who cover the news on a daily basis are resident across different regions of Cameroon.

MMI also covers news of interest across different countries in Africa and the globe. Often, these are stories that have been authenticated by local media sources. The objective is to amplify the voices of others in these countries and provide the Cameroonian audience with up-to-date happenings in other areas of the continent and the world.

We believe that information is power and should be used in shaping society for the good of everyone. We believe that everyone stands to benefit when we embrace and value the diversity of thoughts, ideas, and ways of working that people from different backgrounds, experiences, and identities bring.
