After this incident, Joshua Osih, vice president of the SDFaccuses the separatists of wanting to disrupt the preparation of the funeral of John Fru Ndi. ” We believe that it is unacceptable to want to make public opinion believe that by trying to prevent the funeral from taking place, one would fight favorably for a cause “, he reacts to the microphone of Christina Okello.
” We do not know very well why they attack with so much ardor President John Fru Ndi and the SDF, which is nevertheless in the opposition. If these separatists wanted to dialogue with anyone, they would have gone about it other than trying to get noticed with this incident. “continues Joshua Osih.
The Cameroonian MP speaks of a ” very good warning “. ” Now we see what they want to do. This allows us to be even more on our guard. But this in no way takes away all the arrangements made by the family, by the party and by the State of Cameroon to ensure that this funeral takes place without problems. “, he concludes. The funeral of John Fru Ndi will take place at the end of the month in Yaoundé, Bamenda and Baba.
