Batibo: Settling Of Scores between Separatists Factions Results in Burning Of a Child
The Cameroon Defence Forces have washed their hands from any involvement in the recent raids in Batibo that led to the setting of ablaze of the house which burnt a child to death.
According to a release from the Head of Communication Division of the Ministry of Defence, Navy Captain Atonfack Guemo Cyrille on” Thursday, February 11, 2021; a viral video of an amateur report appeared on the blogosphere showing an adult weeping with a charred infant in his arms.
The authors, who posted this macabre video, attributed the origin of the fatal fire to elements of the Defence and security Forces, accused of having carried out a raid and set houses on fire in the Batibo locally, Momo Division, North-West Region. This is a hoax, an absolute hoax.”
The release further specifies that “the sad events of Batibo rather refer to a settling of scores between two identified terrorist criminal factions, which are causing death and disarray in the administrative regions of the North West and South West. They are the Ambazonian Defence Forces (ADF) led by the unscrupulous Ayaba Cho, and the Southern Cameroon Defence Forces (SOCADEF) under the orders of guru, Ebenezer Akwanga.”
The pseudo general Ayaba Cho dispatched men of his ADF to murder the alleged general Commando responsible for SOCADEF terrorist operations in the Batibo Sector but the so-called Commando fled with his wife, abandoning his baby in the hideout which also served as a depot for adulterated fuel and homemade gun powder.
The two highly flammable and explosive products helped fuel the house fire ordered in ultimate retaliation by the so called Big Efang alias Big Number, burning the baby in the process.
The Military has dismissed as fake secessionist propaganda, supported by certain media and national and international non-governmental organisations of well known editorial lines and allegiance that were echoing an alleged attack by the Defence and Security Forces in Batibo on February 11, 2020; pure lies and falsehood.
According to the Ministry of Defence the new episode of demonization of the defence and security forces seems to be part of a scheme to demoralise and even demobilise the forces in the conduct of their defence missions of the territorial integrity of the country and the protection of the people and their property.
