Culture: Nguea Laroute’s left leg amputated

This 3rd October 2019, news of the amputation of Mama Nguea’s left leg in a hospital in Douala went viral.

 

A video is circulating on social media in which Nguea Laroute, author of the famous song, “Soleil de Decembre” is seen demanding for help.

In the video, Mama Nguea says, “My dear brothers and sisters, do not think it is a lie, these are things that happen in life. I have told you numerous times that I am sick. You people thought I was lying. This time I need your help more than ever. My condition is getting worst. I plea with each of you to help me….”

 

 

Mama Nguea also calls on the First Lady’s generosity saying, “I know you have helped me already, but the help was not sufficient enough; I still need your help”.

She also called on her fellow artists to help, saying she is still their mother and has no problem with any of them.

Prior to this, a special envoy from the Ministry of Arts and Culture, Théophile Eyango and another musician Nicole Mara had visited Mama Nguea.

They were responding to the artist’s call for help made in a live facebook video.

In that video, Mama Nguea said she was admitted in Laquintinie hospital where she stayed for five months.

She also explained that the doctor had demanded an amount of ten million Francs cfa for her operation.

Nguea Laroute mentioned the football player Samuel Eto’o in her video, asking for assistance from him and appreciating what she had she received years ago.
