Colonel Ba’ana Tsogo Jacques Alain, Chief of staff of the 21stMotorised Infantry Brigade, made it clear that all security dispositions have been taken throughout the region for effective teaching and learning to go on hitch-free. He cited a security meeting held in Yaounde to that effect where instructions were given to them on how to work. “Teachers, pupils and students should be sure about their security. But know that everybody has to be involved in security. If anybody finds anything abnormal, don’t hesitate to bring us the information so that we can handle it,” he explained, while soliciting the cooperation of the population to help them do their job better.

On having the military in communities, he explained that the presence of the military is to uphold Statehood. That they provide security so that business can flourish, students can go to school etc. Those community members should be reassured of protection and should go about their daily activities unworried. He reechoed that they are not in the region to fight the population but to protect them. “You are safer when the military is near you,” he affirmed.
