Several areas of the city have suffered the terrible deluge triggered at night. The Metropolitan Council accused of laxity.This testimony is made by John Balog, General sexagenarian president of football club Fc Authentic 3rd division. Arrived at the stage of Reunification Douala to 3:30 p.m., the sports leader says he has "more than an hour from motorcycle" of Makepe Bépanda as he was attending matches of the National 2nd division championship. Is that the city of Douala suffered on the night of 19 to 20 June 2015 giant floods caused by torrential rains that lashed the city. Entire houses were almost swallowed up
Rising waters forced the inhabitants to take refuge on top of their houses invaded by water. Traffic was cut in several places of the city. The Logpom neighborhoods Bedi, Akwa-Nord, Kotto Makepe generally presented as more urbanized and without great risk and danger areas like Sable and Makepe Missokè or Ndog Mbé St. Thomas were beaten indiscriminately.
There is not they who have been affected. The Akwa Mall, Bonabéri neighborhood on the other side of the bridge, were also affected by the fury of rainwater that overflowed. Witnesses and victims index a natural drain that was not priest by the urban community of Douala. Consequently, "the water goes all over the place," said the waterfront questioned by Equinoxe TV.
