Unconfirmed reports circulating on social media claim that several members of the Ark of God’s Covenant Ministry were involved in a canoe accident at the Mudenka waterways in Cameroon.
The reports allege that about seven members of the ministry died after a canoe reportedly capsized while they were travelling to inspect construction work in the area. However, Legit Cameroon has not independently confirmed the reported deaths, the exact number of people involved, or the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The reports further allege that the group was visiting a construction site linked to Apostle John Chi, the founder of the Ark of God’s Covenant Ministry. The ministry’s official website identifies its physical location as Molyko, Buea, in the South-West Region of Cameroon. (agcom.tv)
Claims that the victims were not wearing life jackets and that some people were rescued also remain unverified. Legit Cameroon could not find an official statement from law-enforcement authorities, emergency services or the ministry confirming these details at the time of publication.

The circumstances surrounding the reported incident therefore remain unclear. Further information from local authorities, eyewitnesses or the ministry would be needed to establish what happened and confirm whether there were fatalities.
Legit Cameroon will continue to monitor the situation and update this report if credible information becomes available.
This report is based on an unverified claim circulating online. Readers are advised not to treat the reported death toll or other details as confirmed until they are independently verified.
