Germany supports Cmr in fight against Terrorism

Faced with terrorist activities perpetrated at the borders by jihadis and insurgents, there is every indication that Cameroon is not alone.

The gift from Germany, to the defence forces, is a clear demonstration of this fact. 60 Wolf jeep and 60 Unimog trucks, vehicle armed with Quad 14.5 mm tubes were all pure products of the German technology which have proved their effectiveness on conflict zones such as Afghanistan whose barren landscapes, are somewhat similar to the steppes of the region of the far North, or to a lesser extent, the savannas of Central Africa.

The ceremony for reception of these facilities by the Minister delegate at the Presidency, responsible for defence, Edgar Alain Mebe Ngo'o from the Ambassador of Germany in Cameroon, Klaus Ludwig took place recently in Yaounde.
