Police Superintendent Found Dead in his sleeping room

Inhabitants of Bokwango in Buea, South West Region, were Tuesday, 27 February 2018, gripped by fear and dismay following the discovery of the lifeless body of a Police Commissioner.

            Commissioner Enongene was found dead with his corpse in an advanced stage of decomposition in his living room at the Bokwango neighborhood.

            Speaking to reporters, the landlady Justine Angayah said: “many people in the neighborhood were complaining about a strange odor for some time now. The odor became very intense and we decided to find out where it was coming from. Our search took us to the Commissioner’s apartment. It was then that we discovered that we have not seen the Police Commissioners for over two days now. We were however not disturbed given the present social climate reigning now with security persons doing extra hours at work. We thought since the forces of law and order have been very busy, the Commissioner must have been sent out of town or he has been very busy for the past two days. I then asked my son to call him. My son rang his phone several times, but he didn’t pick his call. We then invited elements of the forces of law and order and Buea Municipal police who came and smashed open the door before discovering that the Police Commissioner is dead and in an advanced stage of decomposition,” the landlady recounted.

            A medical doctor who was brought in to do preliminary investigation indicated that the Police Commissioner died 48 hours before his corpse was discovered.

            The mortal remain of the security officer was later taken to the Buea Regional Hospital for an autopsy to ascertain the real cause of the Commissioner’s death.
