A teacher named Diane YANGWO was regularly beaten by her husband. This time was fatal.
A black anger has gripped teachers since the weekend in Douala. And for good reason, the tragic death of Diane YANGWO. This Teacher died on Saturday, November 18 after being violently beaten by her husband. It all started when รric BEKOBE came back from work at the end of the week and noticed the absence of Diane YANGWO in a clinic where one of their three children, barely nine months old, was interned.
For Eric, this is unforgivable. The woman explains after her return that she went home to prepare the meal for him, but Eric doesn’t hear it that way. He rushes at the woman aged in her thirties and beats her at the clinic after closing the door according to a source. Having been kicked in the stomach, Diane faints and is initially followed in this clinic located in the Yassa district. As her condition deteriorated, she was transported to the Gyneco-obstetrics and Pediatric Hospital in Yassa for better follow-up.
There, we see that her pancreas is affected and the woman, an English teacher at the Nylon Dogpassi Bilingual High School for nine years, dies. It was the dismay and anger of her colleagues who, having learned that she was taken to the gynecological hospital, rushed in large numbers to witness the facts. The murderer, threatened by the deceased’s colleagues, fled under conditions that are difficult to specify for the moment since he was in a hospital room.
According to Diane YANGWO’s entourage, the woman was beaten daily by a very violent husband. And he didnโt hesitate to say โIโm going to kill you, Iโm going to go to prisonโ.
โ Mrs. YANGWO was a diligent teacher, a dedicated teacher. She knew what work she had to do. She was the cream of the English department she belonged to.
A true virtuoso in teaching this discipline. This teacher, although very small, found no difficulty in imposing herself in front of her learners until the final year because she was so meticulous in her work. She was an exemplary head teacher. In her 5th Bilingual class, she had created a WhatsApp group through which she ensured perfect communication with the student’s parentsโ testifies a censor from the Nylon Dogpassi bilingual high school where Diane YANGWO had taught for nine years.
The body is in the morgue of the Gynรฉco Obstetrics and Pediatric Hospital of Douala located in the Yassa district. And this is in this neighborhood where the deceased had lived for several years with her husband Eric BEKOBE, an employee of the SCB bank. The murderer’s husband was arrested by law enforcement. An investigation is open.
After almost four months spent in the morgue of the gyneco-obstetric hospital of Douala, the family of the deceased must pay a little more than 1 million 300 FCFA to remove the remains of their daughter killed by her husband last November.
At the time MMF posts this article online, the remains of Lady Diane Yangwo are still buried under ice at the gyneco-obstetric hospital in Douala. The body of the young teacher spent exactly 4 months and 10 days there. His remains had been sealed by the courts for investigations. To recover the body of the teacher who died as a result of domestic violence on November 18, 2023, her family is asked to pay the sum of 1,338,000 CFA francs according to the information given by the family.
Asked to make a discount, Professor Emile Mboudou, director of the Douala gyneco-obstetrics hospital, said he could only reduce the total amount required by 10%. A situation that falls like a sledgehammer on the head of this family which has been experiencing pain for around four months. It was last November that Diane Yangwo, a teacher at Nylon High School in Douala, succumbed to a violent beating from her husband, Mr. Bekobe Mvondo Eric, who was used to hitting her. Admitted to the hospital, and she died before being treated. The lady was beaten by her husband until she died. โThe hospital where she arrived in a coma did not have an oxygen tube to keep her in sight. The teacher who had a torn spleen as a result of the blows was declared dead,โ we learned at the time of the events.
