Among these persons was, Nincho Samuel, the President of the association of persons living with disabilities, like others he agreed that if the solution to the Anglophone crisis is not quickly looked into, a generation of Cameroonians risk being wiped off.
These are displaced persons from villages in the Northwest region of Cameroon like; Batibo , Belo and Mamfe among others where the effect of the Anglophone crisis is devastating.
Behind these tears are lots of pathetic stories, Ma Martha Tender, a widow, is harboring over 44 of these displaced persons in her house in Bamenda.
