Bamenda: Businessman shot dead near his home in Mile 6

Tayim Christian Nsoh, a businessman known by the nickname “Nazi,” was reportedly shot dead near his home in Mile 6, in Bamenda II, in Cameroon’s Northwest Region. According to information reported by MMI News, he was walking home after being dropped off at the Mile 6 junction when two young men allegedly approached him in an attempted robbery. After he reportedly resisted, one assailant fired into the air and the other shot him. His death has renewed concerns about safety in Bamenda, where a 14-year-old girl was fatally shot during an alleged kidnapping attempt in Mile 3 Nkwen on October 14.

Trump asks Supreme Court to block 20,000 California ballots before midterms

Donald Trump’s administration asked the Supreme Court on Monday to stop California from counting mail-in ballots from more than 20,000 voters it claims are not US citizens, one day before the midterm elections. The Justice Department wants ballots linked to a Department of Homeland Security list set aside until the voters’ citizenship status is confirmed. California says the list is unreliable and may include thousands of eligible US citizens, while state officials say separating the ballots would be nearly impossible. A federal judge and an appeals court rejected the request; Judge David Carter warned that discounting votes based on unproven allegations would put democracy in danger.

Christian Solidarity Worldwide Nigeria said 17 of the 37 worshippers abducted during attacks on three churches in Ariko, Kaduna State, on April 5, 2026, died in captivity; 12 escaped and eight were released after five months. CEO Rev. Yunusa Nmadu also reported that six of 11 people abducted in Awon on April 20 were killed, while four remained captive six months later.
