On Tuesday, 16 September 2024, teams of the National Gendarmerie made their first stop at Government High School Nkol Eton, in Yaounde. Discussions centered around the following topics: dangers associated with violence in schools, irredentism and cultural isolationism in cyberspace, irresponsible use of smartphones and other social medias, and dangers associated with drug and psychotropic use by students.

The various speakers namely Captain AMOUGOU Annick, head of the Defence and Civic Action Service, Captain NOTE Désirée and Warrant Officer NDJOCK SIELEYE of the Communication Service, spent a few minutes sensitizing the youth on school violence.
