Mayor Patrick Ekema denies accusations he shot at protesters



The residence of CPDM Mayor of Buea, Ekema Patrick Esunge, came under attack from angry Southern Cameroons protesters on Friday 22 September 2017. The protesters vandalised the mayor’s fleet of cars including his beautiful villa.
                Reports on social media said the mayor, caught here on camera with a rifle, reportedly shot and killed one of the demonstrators. But Ekema has denied the accusation, saying the allegation is false and that no shootings ever took place in his residence despite the attack by the marauding protesters.

                Ekema debunked the allegation in a disclaimer he posted on the Buea Council’s facebook page.
                Yet, there are conflicting reports on the incident with some claiming Mayor Ekema Patrick opened fire in self defence and after his home was attacked.
                The Senior Divisional Officer for Manyu also reportedly shot and killed a protester in Mamfe.
