Journalists in Cameroon have marched to government offices to demand an account of their missing colleague, Samuel Wazizi, after local media this week reported he was died in military custody.
Isidore Abah of the Cameroon Association of English-Speaking Journalists’ (CAMASEJ) says he led scores of reporters Thursday in a march to government offices in the southwestern town of Buea.
Abah said among the government offices they visited was that of Southwest Region Governor Bernard Okalia Bilai.
According to Abah, Bilai said only the central government in the capital Yaounde could tell them what happened to Wazizi.
Journalists in the French-speaking town of Douala staged a similar protest march Thursday to government offices.
