Reports say a truck crushed him and the bike rider to death on Tuesday, May 9, at Mbankomo, a locality on the outskirts of Yaounde.

“Witnesses at the scene of the horrific accident stated that the vehicle of the deceased suffered from a fault along the road, forcing him to park in order to get a mechanic to carry out repairs,” reported Yaounde-based radio station, Express FM.

“He boarded a motorcycle to look for a mechanic and, in the course, the killer truck ran on them. He died alongside the bike rider,” the radio station furthered.

His body, and that of the bike rider, were taken to a hospital mortuary at Ngoumou neighborhood in Yaounde.
