On the day the Senior Barrister was killed, his attackers took away his car to their camp, Capo said, acknowledging that it is only when they discvered that Kemende's car was in their camp that he knew the act was carried out by their men. 'When they killed Kemende, our forces said they did not carry out the attack until when State forces invaded the camp and seized the car. I did not know they killed…our leader Ayaba Cho had explained to me that they were going to kidnap Kemende, but I said it was not a good idea, he said ok. But I do not know if he went back to order for his kidnap or killing…Ayaba Cho said they should pick him up, I denied' Capo Daniel said. 'Nobody said anyhting when I asked the Presidential house,' Capo said. Capo was a strong advocate of the ADF and the AMbazonia Governing Council but last year left the group citing differences in position. He later announced the creation of Ambazonia Peoples Advocative Platform. Source: Cameroon News Agency
