Cameroon: Chad Deploys Military to Southern Cameroons as Crisis Persist

According to multiple sources Chadian soldiers, dispatched by Chadian President Idriss Deby at the request of Cameroonian President Paul Biya, have been fighting for several weeks alongside Cameroonian's armed forces against the English-speaking separatists.

"It is since the last summit of the Economic Community of Central African States on October 30, 2017, that the two heads of state - in power for three decades - have had to help each other," a high-ranking official of the Chadian army told Africa Info on condition of anonymity."

The information we are getting is that the Cameroonian military is finding it difficult to fight the separatists. The military were not prepared for this kind of combat," he said, adding that even the Chadian military is "feeling discouraged". Despite several attempts, the communication officer of the Cameroonian ministry of defense did not respond to our inquiries. Meanwhile, on the field, the situation is far from calming down despite the fact that the independence leaders were abducted from Nigeria and sent to Cameroon under conditions the UN says violates the rules of of International law.

According to witnesses, fighting has raged on for several days on the border between Nigeria and Cameroon.

Several attempts by the Chadian mercenaries and the Cameroon armed forces have been unsuccessful, a regular source told Africa Info.

alright. Paul Biya shld get the hell out of that country governance. I know it is a matter of time he will be send either to the grave or asylum. Useless African president.

GOOD.

Can you imagine, Paul Hiya is using Chadian soldiers to fight separatists? Buhari even arrested their leaders in Nigeria against international protocol and sent them back to Cameron! Imagine separatist fighters that are not even well armed is what Cameroon cannot defeat without calling for Chad's help?? Banana republic!

what about the almighty Nigerian army who could not bring boko haram insurrection to an end?

Nigeria should help the Cameroonians because they are Igbos, in other words Nigerians.
