Fake Soldier Arrested In Kumba, Cameroon

The police in Kumba have recorded more success in efforts to rid the society of fraudsters. A young man posing as a soldier was arrested on January 1, 2016, in Kumba. Alain Azonga Valentine, aged 24, who was arrested by operatives of the Kumba Central Police Station, claimed he was given the fatigues by a military friend in Buea by name Mbaku.


The fake military man said the uniform was for him to use for farm work, but he decided to put it on and come right to Kumba. Azonga said he makes his livelihood by fetching and selling fuel from the mountain in Buea. According to the Commissioner of the Kumba Central Police Station, Nelson Elong Njumenjikang, the fake military man will be sent to the Legal Department for the Senior State Counsel to decide his fate.


Elong Njumenjikang also spoke of the need for community policing, saying it facilitates the provision of intelligence by the public. It is thanks to such security measures that a suspect was recently arrested with four and a half sacks of ‘Cannabis sativa’ commonly known as Marijuana or Indian hemp. A gang of suspected robbers operating from Kumba was picked up in Mbanga in Moungo Division of Littoral Region and several other people arrested in Kumba for allegedly possessing or consuming Marijuana, the Commissioner explained.
