SDF mayor, deputy mayor, 19 municipal councillors kidnapped!
SDF mayor, deputy mayor, 19 municipal councillors kidnapped!
The SDF appears to be the party bearing the brunt of separatist abductions.
After the party chairman’s ordeal with gunmen on at least two occasion, they have now shifted tactics to councilors and mayors.
Xinhua reports that two mayors and 19 municipal councilors of the SDF were abducted on separate occasions.
The mayor of Bamenda II, Fidelis Awa Balick was kidnapped early Thursday, while first deputy mayor of Bamenda III and four councilors were kidnapped on Monday alongside 15 other councilors in Jakiri, the party said in a statement.
Armed separatists claimed responsibility for the abductions on social media, stating that the hostages will remain in their keeping until after general elections scheduled for next year.
The party has demanded their "safe and sound" release with "immediate effect". Local police said a search and rescue mission of the hostages is underway.
Cameroon will hold municipal and parliamentary elections on Feb. 9, 2020, but separatists have vowed to disrupt the elections in the Anglophone regions of Northwest and Southwest where they want to create an independent nation.
