Inhabitants of the Makenee neighbourhood in the Mbam and Inoubou division of the Centre region are still in shock over the demise of three men who fell into a well.

The men, Nyandja Dieudedort,41, T5agne Fanga,28 and Nana Merim,34, were cleaning a well after heavy down pour on May 4 when 34 year old Nana Merim suddenly fell into the well. All efforts made by the remaining two to save him failed. They later dived into the 10metres well but also got drowned.

Even though many attach the demise to witchery, Joel Elanga Eteme, Divisional Officer of Makenene has today called for a crisis meeting to decipher the cause of the incident and raise awareness against future incidents.
