Hello @everyone accept warm greetings from this end globe .Today is another day for me to share with you guys my daily activities.It been one week we are indoors lockdown imposed by seperatist fighters on us . Precisely north west and south region of Cameroon . Iam affected because I live inthe northwest region of Cameroon .

Cameroon has been experiencing socio political crisis for 9 years now in this regions .Power tussles between the government and and the separatists fighters . Thousands of people have died , gender based violence especially on women and many people have displaced to other region .

Inspite effort made to end this by international bodies and home governments.The separatists fighters has refused to siezed fire claiming the government has not satisfied the demands. Schools just reopen for the new academic.Lockdown was to distract and stop children from reopening from the said day given by government.

Rather said school will reopen but on the 21st of September2026.Instead of 7th September, 2026. Then imposed lockdown for the whole of one week from 7th to 12th .Which will continue till the 21st of September. Today is weekend we were only given the chance to come out and buy foods. I had a lot to do in town , I took a cab to town to buy food stuffs for the house .

Places were open and town was functioning but some areas where witnessing serious gunshots .Military exchange with separatists fighters. No one could explain the reason behind all these . Immediately I hurriedly. Reach the market things were very expensive as sellers could not cross to town because gunshots.I bought fresh tomatoes since I needed it .

Dear, I can sense from afar the hardships you and the people of your region have been enduring for the past week due to the lockdown imposed by separatist fighters. I pray to God that you are quickly relieved of this trouble. It is truly commendable that, amidst such difficult times, you summoned the courage to leave the children at home to go shopping and take photographs for your blog.
