Our founder barrister Marie Abanga accompanied by Ms Estela Mah our volunteer in charge of Admin, today March 1st visited the Lebang Cultural and Development Organization (LECUDO) to present project AAF and distribute IDP identification forms. This is in line with the implementation phase of the Awareness, Advocacy and Facilitation (AAF) project on MentalHealthMatters partially funded by the African Regional Democracy Fund Program (ARDF) of the US Embassy in Cameroon. Our pilot project has as target beneficiaries a total of 500 including children whose birthday certificates are yet to be issued maybe due to the crisis or financial constraints at birth.

The sexual assault case of baby Judy viciously sodomised and raped allegedly by her aunt’s boyfriend in Ebolowa has been ongoing and coordinated by Barrister Abanga Marie Angele who is also the founder of the Association Hope for the Abused and Battered. She is coordinating both the psycho-social and legal aspects in the despicable case on behalf of the Network of Hope and Empowerment Cameroon (NHEC) founded by Ms Mirabelle Sonkey, and her organisation (H4AB).

The baby still has 2 surgeries to undergo with one planned for Thursday the 27th of February and the other a month or two after that one.

We remain committed to seeking for justice for Judy, and all victims of rape in society. Today we are more than ever determined to seek all avenues to accelerate and intensify awareness and sensitization campaigns about such atrocities and the need for a paradigm shift in our collective consciousness.

These past months have been trying for our society with reports of sexual violence committed on women, girls and babies as young as 6 months, and a serial rape of at least 18 primary 6 pupils in a school in Bonaberi Douala.

Sadly, more cases of sexual violence/rape go unreported as some families and communities practice a culture of silence or indifference about sexual violence/rape leaving the victims traumatized.

We appreciate all support received since the start of this case in this first days of May 2019.

Kindly do not hesitate to contact me for further information on how you support the cause by raising awareness too.

This is a teacher in a primary school who allegedly raped 18 girls in class six. We are very saddened by media reports that he may have disappeared and the case which was opened earlier this year (although events were brought to the attention of the school authorities before the Christmas break 2019), may remain unresolved. Cases like these leave so many questions unanswered and we begin to have serious doubts about the justice system in our country. Are our daughters or kids for that matter safe in schools again?
