Bodies of Tumassang brothers discovered in Bamenda

The people of Njong Village in Bamenda can now have some relief for having found the lifeless body of two brothers Cletus and Edwin Tumassang, swallowed up by the earth in the course of searching for gold in a supposed gold mine beside their house.

The disappearance of these two brothers on Thursday, 2nd July, 2015 had rendered the population of Njong village restless and confused.

After their disappearance, the forces of law and order made several attempts with a caterpillar and other tools to search for their bodies, but the search attempt proved fruitless until Tuesday 7thJuly when the bodies were discovered in the depths of the earth after a thorough search.

One of the corpse was found at about 1pm and the other about 2hrs later.

They were buried in two separate graves already dug by the 5th of July without any traditional ritual.
