Prime Minister Says Peace Returning to Separatist Regions – Residents Not So Sure

[VOA] Yaounde, Cameroon — Cameroonian separatists have rejected the prime minister’s declaration that their fight for independence has been largely crushed. Joseph Dion Ngute said federal troops have brought peace to conflict areas, and said life is returning to normal. But analysts say it’s too early to declare victory and rebels have vowed to keep fighting to carve out an English-speaking state from Francophone-majority Cameroon.
