The paper relays that the pastor who is leader of a certain association APAD requested audience at the Presidency through a letter of May 23 2016, in prepartion for the arrival of some Indian Investors to Cameroon. Among the delegation who were to accompany him during the audience, were the names of Nyangono Ebollo epouse Baroux, mother in-law of Franck Biya. This name caught the attention of Ferdinand Ngoh Ngoh, Secretary General at the Presidency, who after some verification with Mme Baroux, concluded that the Pastor was impersonating the people he claimed were to accompany him for the audience.
Pastor Nkoma was arrested and taken to the GMI, where he was sent to the State Counsel, who sent him to jail. During the various hearing sessions of case, there was no official complain against him, no prove against him, no victim or accuser, no witness, and no evidence to what he was charged with, but he was however found guilty and sentenced to six months imprisonment.
