Meluf, Bajing, Wum villages – Houses Set Ablaze, People Killed.

Houses have been burnt in Meluf village, Kumbo sub Division of the North West region of Cameroon.
Inhabitants have fled to bushes and other neighbouring villages for safety.

The victims have been recounting on phone that people dressed in military uniforms of the Cameroonian army, invaded the village at about 4:30am Friday March 15 causing the havoc.

On the number of people killed, no number has been established for now but those who succeeded to escape say the old and children of the village stand high risk of death.

This is the second time Meluf village has been set ablaze since the beginning of the year 2019, with no investigation carried out by competent authorities in Cameroon.

Residents of Bamkikaay, a neighboring village to those attacked,say they could spot thick smoke in the skies of the villages and got sounds of gun shots.

Beside Meluf, the raid got to other quarters like Fikov and Ntarmi.

Residents of Kikaikom, Taadu, Mbiim and other surrounding quarters have fled to bushes for fear of similar attacks.

In Wum still in the north west region of Cameroon, at least four people are reported dead as they could not escape a huge fire believed to have been ignited by the Cameroonian military. The inhabitants say the attack was in search of ambazonia boys that have been using such villages as hide outs.

Children and women have been wailing calling on God to intervene. They complain that the sacredness of man no longer have a value in the restive Anglophone regions of Cameroon.
