On December 20, 2018, eyewitnesses recounted a chilling incident that unfolded in the serene village of Likoko, nestled within Fako State of Ambazonia. Unarmed civilians sought refuge in their hideout nestled within the dense cover of the bushes, hoping to escape the pervasive violence that plagued their community.
However, their sanctuary was shattered when the Cameroon Occupation Forces descended upon them with ruthless force.
In a brazen display of brutality, the military forces stormed their hideout, forcibly abducting them from their makeshift refuge.

Tragically, the fate that awaited them was nothing short of horrifying, as their lifeless bodies were callously discarded, their voices silenced forever by the merciless hand of oppression.
The chilling account of Likoko village stands as a grim testament to the pervasive terror and impunity that grips the region, as innocent civilians fall victim to the unchecked violence perpetrated by those sworn to protect them.
In the wake of such unspeakable tragedy, the echoes of their voices ring out, demanding justice and accountability for the atrocities committed against them. As the world bears witness to their suffering, the plight of Likoko village serves as a sobering reminder of the urgent need for concerted international action to bring an end to the cycle of violence and ensure that such atrocities are never repeated again.
The actions of the Cameroon Occupation Forces , as described in the account of the hideout in Likoko village, epitomize a profound lack of humanity and compassion.
Even in the supposed safety of the villagers’ hideout within the bushes, they were subjected to relentless pursuit and violence, a stark demonstration of the callous disregard for human life that characterizes the actions of the occupying forces.
The hunt for innocent civilians, even in their most vulnerable moments, speaks to a deeply troubling disregard for the basic principles of dignity and human rights.
