I strongly condemn the kidnap and abduction of Barrister Patrick YONG FANYONG by unidentified gunmen Sunday May 1st 2022 at the entrance of his residence at Mile Four Nkwen- Bamenda, North West Region. Lawyers and Human Rights Defenders must be protected.

Bamenda. Another case of kidnapping. Barrister Paddy Yong was kidnapped yesterday at the entrance of his residence by the ambazombies. The terrorists waited for him at his gate and took him away in his car while abandoning their motor cycle they came with.
