By David Atangana

Several residents in Yaounde, some of whom are internally displaced persons, IDPs from the restive North West and South West Regions of Cameroon have been rendered homeless.

This follows a flood that brought down homes Sunday March 19, following heavy downpours.

The incident occured at Mewoulou neighborhood.

“This is the result of the floods that has made some IDPs stranded” a source told MMI.

“The floods broke the walls of some homes hosting internally persons.”

“Three IDPs were removed from the house after the collapse of a wall,” he added.

According to report, no life was lost.

But those affected have no where to go to as their abodes were affected by the floods.
