Cameroon: The Battle Between Troops And Students

The prologue was a violent outburst of tempers on a stage occupied by armed men against calm students. In the tragic melodrama of the insurrection and anti-riot, the students and the troops portrayed violence apparently prompted by the Governor of the Southwest Province, Thomas Ejake Mbonda's instructions. The real drama began when the Governor arrived on University Street in the morning of Monday 24, where students had assembled to further search for a solution to their problem, for, previously, the usual imperial solution to insoluble problems of appointing a commission to report, and the report noted and filed for life did not seem to work.
