“Cross and Die” was amongst eight separatist fighters killed in different operations carried out by Cameroon’s military on October 29 and October 30.

Brigadier General Nka Valere, Commander of the 5^th Joint Military Region says the notorious Cross and Die manned a separatist camp in Ntankah. He was killed as he attended the funeral ceremony of one of his relatives in Ntamafe on Friday.

Information on the death of Cross and Die was confirmed by Capo Daniel, Deputy Defense Chief of the Ambazonian Defense Forces (ADF) in a social media video released on Saturday.

The exact details behind the killing of “Cross and Die” are still sketchy as defense officials will not want to comment on the operation. But Capo Daniel in his video release said he was ambushed by security officials in two unmarked civilian vehicles after attending a funeral service. His bodyguards, he continued, were unable to protect him. He also announced that his second in command will take over control of the separatist camp in Ntankah known as New Jerusalem.

Capo Daniel announced a lockdown this Saturday to observe Cross and Die’s death but this lockdown was largely unheeded. Many instead went about with their routine activities.

State media reports that separatist General Princewill who masterminded the attack early Friday morning on the Bamenda-Santa highway, around Akum was also killed in a special operation at Mile 87, Bali Road. He was killed along with five others.

Another guerrilla leader, General Tiger was also reportedly killed by state forces.

The ADF has confirmed the death of its fighters, adding that a civilian lady was injured in the shootout.

As Bamenda city-dweller went about their routine activities on Saturday, the remains of warlord Cross and Die laid displayed at the Hospital Roundabout. Onlookers celebrated the death of the separatist fighter, blaming him for untold atrocities carried out in Bamenda.

Brigadier General Nka Valere, Commander of the 5^th Joint Military Region, and his collaborators were seen at the Hospital Roundabout on Saturday.

After killing separatist Generals Mad Dog, Lion, Tiger, and Trouble, the military is poised to kill notorious general ‘No Pity’ after he narrowly missed military bullets during an operation in Akeh.

Bamenda Online reports that “Improved intelligence gathering by the security forces, cooperation with the population and increasing disagreement amongst the different separatist groups has helped the military score major successes against the separatist fighters.”
