Kumba General Assembly:

Sakerettes celebrate Mbah Acha Rose’s appointment as minister

- Hail President Biya for his good judgment

By Sirri NTONIFOR TANGWE

The Association of Ex-Students of Saker Baptist College, EXSSA, have performed a symbolic march around the city of Kumba to show solidarity for those who have lost loved ones in the fight against the Islamic sect, Boko Haram, and for those actively involved at the battlefront.

                Coming from different nooks and crannies of the nation to take part in the EXSSA Annual General Meeting on Saturday October 10th, the EXSSA ladies were unanimous and vocal in their expression of joy, pride and gratitude to the Head of State for appointing one of theirs, MbahAcha Rose née Formundam, to the position of Minister Delegate at the Presidency in charge of Supreme State Audit. MbahAcha Rose belongs to the EXSSA Class of 1977, christened The Pluckies.

                The presence of highflying EXSSA members such as Honourable Lydia Ikomi and Mme. Bertha Ndoh, Special Adviser to the Prime Minister, added bliss to the occasion.

                The 2015 AGM equally served as an elective congress during which Justice Fonachu Helen passed over the baton of command to Justice Betty Luma who would serve as president of this pioneer of ex-student associations in Cameroon for the next three years.

                Speaking to The Median, Justice Luma said her priority during her mandate will be to increase the visibility and legitimacy of the association. She also expressed her desire to ensure that the association caters for the needs of its members given that the members have sacrificed a lot to cater for the association and their alma mater by sponsoring projects worth hundreds of millions, including the renovation of dormitories for 40 million FCFA.
