Heavily armed robbers attacked the Japoma Health Centre near Nyalla in Douala with high hopes of getting huge amount of money from the central safe.

To their greatest dismay, they saw just FCFA 4,800 after working so hard to enter the central safe. According to an informant who resides near the hospital, following the disappointment, they entered the wards, search patients thoroughly and succeeded in getting just FCFA 13,000 while those who did not have money were molested. Disgruntled, they scattered and destroyed important documents before their departure.
