A civil society organisation, Observatoire du Developpement Societal (ODS), has lauded the president of Cameroon and the military for the maintenance of peace and territorial integrity of the country.
Development Diaries observed that this followed the arrest of two suspects involved in the gruesome murder of Florence Ayafor, a wardress at the Bamenda Central Prison Administration, in September, 2019.
ODS saluted efforts by the military in establishing the truth and maintaining justice, peace, and security in the country.
In a press statement, the General Coordinator of ODS, Lilian Koulou Engoulou, said, ‘ODS, in its mission in defending the rights of the population, followed with satisfaction the public presentation of Niba Innocent Akuma, born on 4 August,1989, and Ngu Roger, born on 15 October, 1990, as suspects involved in the gruesome murder.
‘The cruel video, which was circulated on the social media portraying how she was beheaded, promoted the engagement of the military to ensure that the culprits do not go unpunished’.
Engoulou further called on Cameroonians to contribute to the promotion of the concept of living together for the harmonious development of the country.
He said, ‘We invite all actors to recognise the will manifested by the president of the republic to maintain a state of the law in Cameroon. Firm instructions from him (referring to President Paul Biya) to civil administrators and the military and always in line with professionalism and patriotism within the general objective of protecting the population and accomplishing development projects’.
He urged national and international political actors to acknowledge the government’s determination to bring to justice all those involved in the cruel act and frowned at the silence of some non-governmental organisations as well as international partners of Cameroon in relation to the subject.
