Mikrobølgeovn: After looking into the matter, I think that they are probably not the same person. There exist a few videos of "General Mad Dog of Bui", and I do not think that he looks like "General Mad Dog of Ndian". Furthermore, one Facebook video by rebels claims that "General Mad Dog of Bui" is named "Daouda", not "Desmond Koa". I'll adjust the article to separate the two - feel free to change anything if you disagree.

@
Mikrobølgeovn: Probably, yes. Btw,
this source (published yesterday) reports that Desmond Koa only operated in Meme and Ndian, providing further proof that the Bui rebel is a different person. IMO, there might be even more "General Mad Dog"(s) - most rebel commanders only get coverage when they get killed, and a lot of insurgents seem to recycle "famous" nicknames.

@
Mikrobølgeovn: I have found another recent source which mentions a "Ribbons of Ambazonia" commander called "Jonny Mad Dog"; though the source itself does not confirm it, Facebook separatists claim that "Johnny Mad Dog" and "General Mad Dog of Ndian/Mene" are the same. Just so you know ;-D (Update: Nevermind, I just saw that you had already known the source, haha).
