Kumbo: Town cryer calls for intensified ghost towns
The population of Mbve, kumbo in the North West region was surprised yesterday as a man came up with a loud speaker moving around and reminding people of today and May 20th ghost town.
Sources say the seemingly irritated man used more than 15 minutes in Mbve encouraging the market population not to give up on the Anglophone struggle. He went inside the market with his loud speaker equally warning parents against sending their children out for this year's GCE which he described as the government's strategy to devalue the exams.
According to reports the population was shocked with the young man’s performance and no fear for his life.
“Like everyone else, I was really surprised that it took that long with no arrest. Am sure the police must have been taken unaware but I felt like telling the man to get on the bike and run off but he was ready for anything without fear. As he said “black legs should call the colonial police if they so wanted” Says an eyewitness.
When he came out of the market he went off towards Tobin, he was pursued by two policemen who did not succeed in getting him.
