Amadou Tarnteh Engages Top Diplomats Over Alleged Arbitrary Arrests of Civilians in Ndop By Lasha Kingsly Chair of Conscience Africaine NGO and frontline human rights defender, Amadou Tarnteh, has raised alarm bells over worsening rights violations in the Anglophone regions, drawing the attention of key international diplomats during the Human Rights Defenders of the Year Award ceremony at the Canadian Residence in Yaoundé on December 10, 2025. Tarnteh, who was invited by the Canadian High Commissioner, H.E. Marie-Claude Hervey, used sideline discussions to brief diplomats — including the EU Ambassador, H.E. Jean-Marc Chataigner, and the U.S. Ambassador, H.E. Christopher J. Lamora — on what he described as “deepening humanitarian distress” in conflict-hit communities. He recounted the chilling case of two newborn babies, their mothers, grandmother, aunt, and uncle, who were rounded up on June 24, 2025, by defence and security forces on the instructions of the Senior Divisional Officer for Ngoketunjia, Kongeh Handerson Quetong. The family was detained at the Ndop Gendarmerie Brigade where, according to Tarnteh, Madam Woh Sera and Weyang Julius were “brutally tortured” before being transferred three weeks later to the Bamenda Central Prison. They are said to be languishing in deplorable conditions, allegedly punished for offences committed by a relative believed to be a separatist fighter. The diplomats, reports say, listened with keen attention and expressed their commitment to accompany ongoing advocacy efforts aimed at addressing the disturbing situation. Tarnteh maintains that Conscience Africaine NGO will not relent in pushing for justice, protection, and respect for the rights of all citizens caught in the crossfire of the prolonged conflict.
