5. French Ambassador Denies 9 French Nationals Are Under Detention in Cameroon
By Mbom Sixtus, August 03, 2015
Cameroon Journal, Yaounde – Chirstine Robichon, French ambassador to Cameroon has refuted allegations that the main subject of discussions during the recent visit of Francois Hollande to Cameroon was the liberation of some nine French expatriates being detained at the head office of Cameroon’s secret service in Yaounde, commonly known as DGRE.
At least, that is the subject of a rejoinder the French diplomat sent to Repères, a local French language weekly newspaper in Cameroon. Repere had on July 15, published a report with the headline “Les secrets de la visite de François Hollande”, loosely translated as “the secret of Francois Hollande’s visit.” In the report, the newspaper stated that nine French men caught fighting alongside Boko Haram are still detained in Yaounde.
The National Emergency Management Agency and Red Cross officials have dragged Cameroon authorities to the United Nation High Commission on Refuges over the country’s alleged dehumanization and unlawful repatriation of 2,600 Nigerians.
An official of NEMA, Sa’ad Bello, said this while fielding questions from journalists, and added that the manner Internally Displaced Persons from Nigeria were threatened and deported by Cameroonian authority was unacceptable.
“It’s so disturbing that what Cameroon authority did to Nigerians refuges was totally against norms and violation of the International Refuges Rights .
“We only received a call from the men of Nigerian Immigration who were patrolling along Nigeria- Cameroon border.
“They called our attention that there were trucks fully loaded with Nigerians who after investigation are refuges, internally displaced by Boko Haram and repatriated by Cameroon gendarmes,” Mr. Bello said.
Thank you M., Richard and all. This is major. Something is actually happening that needs to happen. It isn’t Miller time yet, but it may be time to put 6 on ice.
I don’t follow the Islamic conquest of Africa as close as I do the conquest of Europe and North America, I know that this is a mistake but have only so much time a day to give to the war. From what I see on this post the conquest of Africa has hit a speed bump and the UN and other groups are complaining because the various nations object to being conquered and forced to convert to Islam and live in the 7th Century.
Me either. No apologies.
That’s what’s called an infinite sink.
