30, 2026 - A teacher in Cameroon, Faustin Abega, who sparked
outraged online over comments about the r@pe and m8rder of an 11-year-old girl
has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect.
The minor, Mbarga Divine, was r@ped and k!lled by a married
father of three in Cameroon.
The suspect is said to be the father of the victim's
classmate.
The controversy erupted after Faustin posted a comment
perceived by many as trivialising the tragic d8ath of the minor, drawing
widespread condemnation across Cameroonian social media.
Reacting to the tragic incident, Faustin wrote: “Get out,
what was she first of all, looking for at their house. The man enjoyed the
opportunity.”
His remarks intensified public anger, with many calling for
accountability and sanction.
His employer announced the decision in an official letter,
citing gross misconduct and stating that his public remarks were incompatible
with the ethical standards expected of an educator.
The school emphasized that a teacher is required to
demonstrate exemplary behaviour, both in and out of the classroom, and that his
statements undermined the institution’s values.
Following the backlash, Faustin claimed his Facebook account
had been hacked and denied responsibility for the post.
However, the school indicated that this explanation did not
sufficiently address the seriousness of the situation.
Beyond the dismissal, the administration has reassured
parents that measures are being taken to ensure the safety and moral protection
of students.
There are also indications that further internal checks could be carried out to examine the matter more closely.
