“They turned my body into a playing ground. Despite my crying, they were more concerned with taking turns.” This is just one of the poignant points contained in a book released by the Centre for Human Rights and Democracy in Africa, CHRDA. The Centre for Human Rights and Democracy in Africa recently launched a book entitled, In the Eye of the Storm between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea; The Unheard Voices of the Anglophone War in Cameroon.
The publishers of the first-ever book that captures the voices of those most affected by the war say the tone was meant to shock the national and international psyche. So long as there is war and armed conflicts in the world, stories like the one below of Sandra and Fr Abraham will always emerge. Sandra and Fr Abraham are pseudonyms, according to the book, because both still live in precarious situations.
Afterwards, Sandra said, she was left in a pool of her own blood. In the wake of the experience, Sandra told the priest, she now hates men, so much so that she actually considered poisoning her own brother. The harrowing exchange is reproduced in the 174-page book, intended to give voice to the victims of Cameroon’s conflict.
