Cameroon – Peace Slowly Returning to Troubled Anglophone Regions?

“If you look at the situation when it started [in 2016] and where we are now, you will agree that progressively there have been changes,” said Bishop Michael Miabesue Bibi of the Diocese of Buea.

“Progressively, children are going to school. Progressively, those who left their villages and went out as internally displaced persons – some of them are going back to work on their farms and care for their crops,” he explained.

The Mayor of Buea, David Mafani Namange, echoed similar sentiments, telling the bishops the sheer fact that they could meet in Buea was evidence that the joint efforts at restoring peace to the two troubled English-speaking regions of Cameroon were paying off.
