Love-making mad “couple” obstruct traffic flow

 From Leinyuy Marilyn in Bamenda

Traffic flow around the Metta Quarters neighbourhood in Bamenda was last Wednesday brought to a stand-still for more than thirty minutes as curious onlookers and motorists scrambled to catch a glimpse of two mentally-deranged persons in a love encounter.

 It was at about 3p.m. when the two mentally-deranged “couple” were spotted kissing and demonstrating other romantic signs towards each other.

This reporter who happened to be around the neighbourhood that afternoon was equally surprised like other passersby at what these mad persons who were seen naked holding on tight to each other must have been thinking before putting on such an act.

While it seemed strange to many, it meant nothing to others as some of them intimated that they had witnessed several cases of similar nature. “This scenario has of late become rampant in Bamenda. I have witnessed about two cases of this nature around Ntarinkon and Mile Three Nkwen. The only difference with today’s case is that these two mad people are having sex in broad day light”, said one of the passersby.

Many wondered aloud, questioning the kind of feelings this group of persons may be developing towards their kind which is normally what morally-upright persons do.

Meanwhile, the romantic love scenario between the two mad “couple” created heated arguments and debates amongst on-lookers who wondered where the mad people spring from as their number keeps on increasing every other day in Bamenda and North West region as a whole.

It is alleged that some two years ago, some mayors of the West region embarked on “Operation Clean the Towns” and so had decided to gather mad persons like cargo in trucks and transported them to the boundary between the North West and West regions. The mad people were reportedly abandoned at the gates of Matazem where they later trekked to Bamenda town.
