“I was not in court so I consider the verdict a non-event. I maintain that the Cameroon justice system is completely rotten. You don’t keep me in prison and call others in court and give my sentence to them to come and give me”.

These are the words of Mancho Bibixy, Anglophone activist and leader of the coffin revolution, detained at the Kondengui prison in Yaounde, capital city of Cameroon.

Jailed Anglophone activists Mancho Bibixy Tse aka BBC and Ngalim Felix, who have been at the Kondengui prison for nearly four years have each received 18-month jail sentences.

The verdict was handed by a Yaounde court that tried them for an uprising in the detention facility last year.

Reliable sources however hold that the judgement was passed in the absence of he Anglophone detainees.

“He (Mancho) was not even aware of a trial yesterday. Just a few were surprisingly selected and taken to court and a general judgement passed,” a source close to Mancho told Mimi Mefo Info.

Our source adds that; “… Mancho’s mates from court told him he was given 18 months imprisonment for group rebellion alongside Felix”.

The Anglophone activists it should be recalled were again taken to court over prison mutiny in 2019. The protests which began peacefully, turned violent after suspected hardened criminals destroyed offices and set part of the Kondengui detention facility on fire.

"The sentence of Mancho Bibixy and Co cast doubts over steps announced by the government for reconciliation, dialogue and longterm solutions to the anglophone crisis… " @AgborNkonghoF, President of the Centre for Human rights and democracy in Africa pic.twitter.com/hXU2x5oM6J

Mancho and co were also handed 15-year sentences with heavy fines in 2018. They were accused of rebellion, spreading false information, hostility against the state, treason and for taking part in protests in the Anglophone regions of the country.

The activists are among hundreds of other Anglophones detained in prisons across the country over the Anglophone Crisis which escalated in 2016.
