It was unprecedented in many years, downpour swept across the City of Douala pulling down poorly constructed structures and household equipment. The economic capital was transformed into a sea as denizens could barely move to their respective destinations. Among other things, a young man, Bavis alias Batchano was killed.
Sources close to the deceased say he was electrocuted while he unplugged electrical appliances at his home to save them from floodwaters.
