Like her neighbour Nigeria, Cameroon has bore the brunt of Boko Haram suicide attacks lately, with the terrorists resorting to using suicide bombers to attack soft targets. In northern Cameroon, Boko Haram has also been very active, attacking remote villages where they carry out wholesale massacres in unprotected communities.
Keen to end the carnage, President Biya acceded to a request that an aspect of witchcraft be integrated into the fight against the Boko Haram sect. Local chiefs who were worried by the spate of attacks of the sect on the country had asked President Biya, to give them the permission to use their witches and wizards to fight and destroy the bloodthirsty sect and he has agreed to their request.
Apparently, local chiefs believe with the supernatural powers of the witches and wizards, Boko Haram will be decimated. Having listened to their demands, President Biya has given them the go ahead to use their spiritual power to wipe out the sect from the shores of the country.
Meanwhile, in Nigeria, troops of the Seventh Division of the Nigerian Army intercepted two suicide bombers trying to infiltrate Maiduguri through Muna Dalti Ward, about 100 metres from a military check-point. Both suicide bombers, who blew themselves on the process, could not achieve their aim of attacking the target.
According Nigerian Army spokesman Col Mustapha Anka in an additional operation, troops had contact with Boko Haram terrorists in Boboshe and Mowa, where 56 terrorists were killed. He added that items recovered from them include 8 AK-47 riffles, three rocket propelled grenades, seven tubes, one machine gun, one 1 – 60mm mortar, one grenade, three mortar bombs, 18 motor cycles, vehicles and 520 hostages were rescued.
