At least 13 separatist fighters have dumped the Ambazonia movement and surrendered their weapons in Bamenda in the troubled North West region.
The fighters led by famous and dreaded 'General' Scatter dropped their weapons at the Bamenda Commercial Avenue.
They were presented to the public shortly after the address of the Prime Minister, Chief Dr Joseph Dion Ngute.
The Head of Government arrived the restive region for a four-day working visit Tuesday October 5, 2021.
The repentant fighters handed over two AK47 guns, an action pomp, Dane guns, improvised explosive devices among others.
To recall is the fact that more and more fighters have dumped the ranks of the separatist movement across the North West and South West.
During the visit of the PM to the South West region in 2019, at least 21 fighters surrendered their weapons.
Many are those who believe in the peace approach of the Head of Government, who, has since his appointment commited himself to see an end to the ongoing bloodletting in the two English-speaking regions.
Dion Ngute will while in the Bamenda grant audiences to all the living forces of the region from division to division. This, official say, would permit him have a reality of what is on the ground as well as get proposals on how the situation could be brought back to normal.
He will also evaluate the implementation of the resolutions taken during the Major National Dialogue which President Biya convened to seek lasting solutions to the sociopolitical upheavals.
Developing story.
