The Minister of Communication, Rene Emmanuel Sadi has said information relayed on social media and an international radio accusing soldiers of burning houses in Kumbo is fake.
The government spokesperson in a press release this Thursday, February 21st 2019, said elements of the national defence forces who have constantly been attacked by the Separatists have been taking necessary measures to protect the territorial integrity of the nation.
While maintaining that soldiers did not put houses on fire, Minister Rene Emmanuel Sadi praised their professionalism, bravery and assured the people of their safety.
He warned denizens against misinformation and manipulation.
Over 50 houses were reduced to ashes after soldiers stormed Kumbo and neighbouring villages in Bui, in search of Ambazonian fighters.
The population says security forces, set the houses on fire.
