Pierre Kwemo case: MP breaks silence after incident with official in Bafang

Ten days after the October 14 altercation at the Bafang chiefdom, MP Pierre Kwemo issued a statement about the incident involving his bodyguard and Zo’o Joseph Séverin, the departmental delegate of MINCAF. Kwemo says the dispute arose during the handover of minutes related to a 20-hectare municipal subdivision project in Djeffa and Mouankeu. He says he signed the documents at the Haut-Nkam prefect’s office without being able to read them in full and claims the MINCAF delegate refused to give him his copy. The prefect then reportedly ordered that the document intended for the MP be handed over to him.
