Cameroon Recovers Community From Boko Haram

Cameroon has recorded a victory against Boko Haram as its troops have chased the terrorists out of a community that they had occupied for almost three weeks.

The village of Ashigashia is on the nation’s border with Nigeria and has suffered from the spillover violence in Borno state.

Thousands of Nigerians and Cameroonians are currently hiding away at a school in Kolofata.

Reports had it last week that 480 Nigerian soldiers fled into Cameroon to escape Boko Haram and they also sought refuge in schools.

The Cameroon Defense Minister, Edgard Alain Mebe Ngo'o told Voice of America that the situation in Ashigashia is stabilizing after a successful military offensive.
