According to the region’s governor Midjiyawa Bakari, the refugees from Minawao camp, the only official refugee camp in Cameroon’s far North region, voluntarily opted to return home.
“We have agreed with the Nigerian government that 4,000 refugees from Adamawa state in Nigeria will be returned.
“They are the first ones to return but the process will continue after that,’’ Bakari told newsmen.
According to him, they will return by air, while Cameroon will provide the security from the refugee camp to the airport.
“We (Nigeria and Cameroon) are discussing how we will do with their children that have been going to school here and the property they have obtained here,’’ he said.
