English-speaking regions of Cameroon have now been without the internet
for more than a week following recent protests in the country. This
shutdown comes after the government outlawed at least two Anglophone
groups - Southern Cameroons National Council and the Cameroon Anglophone
Civil Society Consortium took to the streets to protest over the
marginalization by the French-speaking led government.
Wednesday, January 25, 2017, marks the eighth day
since the authorities ordered the country’s telecommunications providers
to shut off internet connections to the regions of Northwest and
Southwest.
However, Cameroonians have also been receiving texts from authorities
warning them not to post 'information they can’t prove' on social media.
