(16.05.) An irate group of Moslems from Old Town in Bamenda were Friday, May 16, dispersed with tear gas as they were marching to Northwest Governor’s Office in protest against the detention of their Chief.

The Moslems were requesting the Administration to immediately release their Chief, one Sariki Usmanu, detained at the Bamenda Prisons for about five months in connection with a stand-off over the ownership of a Mosque at Old Town.
