After killing forty people in Fotokol and Maroua through Kamikazes attacks, the insurgents attacked the inhabitants of Tchakarmari, a locality of the Mayo-Sava department, Extreme North region, yesternight.

"8 people, including members of the vigilance committee, were killed at the Tchakarmari village during a raid by Boko Haram yesterday night. Some people were able to escape. The members of the vigilance committee of the nearby village, Kangaleri, heard the ongoings of the attackers that night, while in Nigeria ," according to Guibai Gatama of Cameroon-info.net.

Thus, if presidents Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria and Paul Biya of Cameroon struggle to get their act together on the issue of right to sue, most of the victims of abuses by members of the Islamic sect of Nigerian origin will continue to be affected as the insurgents cross more borders to either save or to take revenge.

The jihadists continue to attack while the deployment of the multinational force amalgams, created to eradicate Boko Haram, is slow to take shape.

Paul Biya, the supreme leader of the Cameroonian army, has still not appointed the Deputy Commander-in Chief. But, Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, appointed his compatriot, General lliya Abbah as the head of this Force whose headquarters is based in Ndjamena in Chad, last week.
