By David Atangana

Tegum Teko Alain, a commercial motorcycle rider is under military detention in Batibo, Momo Division of the restive North West region.

He was reportedly arrested and held following allegations that he carries girls having affairs with government soldiers to Amba, General Efang who commands, the Ambazonian Defense Forces, ADF, an armed separatist militia.

The girls are reportedly believed to be having love affairs with soldiers and General Efang with Alain allegedly an accomplice, MMI has learned.

Local sources say, Alain is based in Bamenda and had gone down to Batibo to drop some passengers when he fell into the dragnet of the military.

“He carried passengers to Batibo. Upon dropping one of the passengers, the military arrested him that he is the one who carries their girl friends to General Efang,” a person close to the case and the biker told MMI.

Alain has been asked to pay FCFA500.000, but our source says he can barely afford that.

“They are now asking for 500.000frs to bail him out. His father Mr Tegum Christopher who is a driver and palm wine seller cannot afford to pay that amount,” said our source who preferred to keep his identity a secret.

Sometimes back, Alain’s father and uncle were also arrested for same reasons and they ended up paying huge sums of money in exchange for freedom.
