SCAPO Chairman, Dr. Kevin Gumne dies abroad

The death has been announced of Dr. Ngwang Kevin Gumne is no more. He was the Chairman of the Southern Cameroons Peoples’ Organisation (SCAPO).

According to what we gathered Dr. Gumne died in the United Kingdom on October 3, 2015, at the age of 80.

He would be remembered for his incessant fight for the liberation of Southern Cameroons. Impressionists say the man was an iroko tree. He was a political activist, freedom fighter and fought so hard for the improvement of the lives of others whose rights were unjustly trampled upon.

Dr. Gumne was the President of SCAPO and which sued La Republique du Cameroun in an African Union court in Banjul asking it to grant Southern Cameroonians independence.

Dr. Ngumne is dead but his legacy stands out especially at this point in time that the Southern Cameroons People’s Organization has been transformed into a political party, known as the Southern Cameroons Party.
