The nine students and a teacher that were kidnapped in Cameroon by separatist fighters have been released.
Gunmen on motorbikes on Tuesday ganged down a school in Kumba suburb, a Cameroon’s English speaking region.

A report from a senior government official in meme reveals that two separatist fighters were killed and one captured during an exchange with police while other two, including the gang leader were killed during burial for their colleagues on Wednesday.

In the exchange, seven hostages managed to escape and due to pressure from the security, the other six students and a teacher were also abandoned.

This is the second time the separatist fighters have used the kidnap tactic,  on November 4, 79 schoolchildren, a teacher, and principal were kidnapped from Presbyterian Secondary School in Bamenda, the capital of north-west province.

However,they were later released without injuries.

Presidential candidate Joseph Mabiriizi instructs Electoral Commission to withdraw security following his alleged kidnapping. Mabiriizi who is contesting on an independent ticket says  the security that was availed to offer protection has failed to guarantee his safety therefore he can live without it. He made the remarks at a press conference organized at MacKinnon suits in Kampala. Flanked by his chairperson Kalinde Nyago, Mabiriizi who is contesting under  the flagship of his party independent  coalition  said that he was subjected to harassment upon his kidnap because  police officers  were compromised by the  assailants who tortured him.
While narrating what transpired he reveled to the press that he was ordered to withdraw from the race. He goes on to say that he was kicked and beaten where he sustained serious internal injuries.
Mabiriizi has also cited the loopholes in police communication following the remarks by police spokesperson on his kidnap saying that he had created a stunt. Despite this, he insists that he will not withdraw from contesting. He also claims that during the process of his kidnap he lost 7 million shilling, which he was using during his campaign, to assailants dressed in camouflaged army uniforms. He further added that he is continuing with his campaigns in Busoga region up to Sunday where he will traverse other parts of the country.
