Mamfe massacre:Maurice Kamto condemns killings in Egbekaw
The National President of the Cameroon Renaissance Movement, CRM, Maurice Kamto, has condemned the Killing of more than a dozen persons in Egbekaw, Manfe town in Manyu Division of the South West Region.
“For almost seven years now Cameroonians have been perishing in the North-West and South-West of our country, sacrificed on the altar of the selfish ambitions of some and the pride of others. Not a day goes by without hearing cries of desolation coming from the regions concerned where horror follows horror, despite the official line which speaks of a return to normalcy. Only yesterday it was the town of Mamfe which was the scene of human cruelty with men, women and children snatched from life in their sleep by lawless men. This is an opportunity for me to express, on my own behalf and on behalf of the CRM, our heartfelt condolences to the families so violently affected,” he said.
He further stated that; “From the beginning, we have never stopped saying that the resolution of the Anglophone crisis cannot be done by force but around a discussion table conducted in a frank and sincere manner. Could this new massacre serve as a catalyst to finally and resolutely search for a definitive solution to this conflict? Once again, we demand an investigation so that those responsible for this heinous crime are unmasked and punished according to the law. The CRM is prepared, as it has stated since the start of the crisis, to fully contribute to find a lasting solution to this national tragedy,”.
On November 6, armed men stormed Egbekaw village, killing several and kidnapping others.
