Issa Bakary Tchiroma to visit Henriette Ekwe

The Cameroonian government spokesperson will visit Henriette Ekwe who has been hospitalized at the Douala General Hospital for two weeks.

The Minister of Communication announced that a delegation from the National Union of Journalists of Cameroon (SNJC) came to meet him at his office on December 22, 2015.

According to a leader of SNJC who took part in the meeting, Issa Bakary Tchiroma said he will visit the journalist and nationalist activist in January 2016.

Since she was admitted at the intensive care for some time, the historian has been provided care. Hematomas in the brain have led doctors to make her undergo surgery of the skull. "The fighter" has been out of intensive care since December 24, 2015.

Henriette Ekwe suffered a car accident along with other fellow travelers on November 10, 2015, on the road to Mbini, a town close to Bata, Equatorial Guinea.

The Mercedes 500 that was carrying them had somersaulted several times before ending up in the surrounding mangroves.

Henriette Ekwe had three fractured ribs. With the other injured, she was transported urgently to the "Centro Medico La Paz Bata" where she got lavish intensive care before returning to Cameroon.
