Jeux universitaires de Garoua : L’effervescence

Sous une pluie fine ce matin, la caravane des Fan Clubs des universités et instituts s’est déroulée très tôt en ce jour. Chants, cris de guerre et accoutrements variés selon les aires culturelles du pays ont coloré l’événement.

Le coup d’envoi des festivités (meilleur fan club) a été donné à partir des services du gouverneur, puis ils se sont dirigés dans les rues de la ville pour annoncer leur présence. Garoua accueillera les 24e jeux universitaires pendant une semaine (du 25 mai au 1er juin). 22 universités/instituts participeront à l’une des plus grandes rencontres sportives des jeunes.

La ville de Garoua vibre dans cette ambiance malgré la chaleur étouffante.

Les forces de défense et de sécurité sont déployées dans les rues de la ville de Garoua pour renforcer la sécurité.

Mimi Mefo Info


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.
