A separatist Fighters operating under the banner of the Ambazonia Defense Force ADF of Ayaba Cho Lucas has been injured in the leg.
He was shot in a standoff between his team and another separatist faction, the Buffalos of Bali Nyonga. This was after the Buffalos intercepted the ADF team in an active kidnapping.
The kidnappers were enroute to Batibo from Bali in Momo Division with a man they kidnapped at the Ntahturu Park neighborhood in Bamenda.
Reports say the man had just arrived Bamenda from Yaounde to bury his father when he was forcefully taken away at gun point Thursday September 21, 2022.
As the bike descended the hill after the market in Bali, the were asked to stop after the fighters from Bali who suspected foul play. After interrogating the men, one of them who tried to fight back received a bullet in the leg.
Sources in Bali say the victim was set free and his return to Bamenda facilitated by the fighters in Bali.
Capo Daniel, spokesperson of the ADF has in a video online condemned the fighters in Bali saying amongst others that intercepting his boys is an unacceptable action.
“He is a millionaire in Yaounde and has been contacted several times to support the struggle but failed. He was not kidnapped but invited to our mother base accompanied by two soldiers for a talk.They should be released immediately,” said Capo Daniel of the victim.
Inhabitants of Bali say kidnapping for ransom is a rare happening in that part of the crisis hit region and that they they can’t even remember when it last happened.
This is however not the first time the Buffalos of Bali are standing against ADF. Some weeks back, members of ADF stormed the Ntafoang Square in Bali and tried imposing a lock down operation.
News got to the fighters from Bali who in their numbers landed at the scene forcing the ADF members to retreat.
