Reunification Special

Reactions to President Biya's message


He escaped the question of the day
- Henry Shey Nganji, S.G Kumba City Council


The Head of State escaped the real question of the day .We expected a lot of things from him but did not get them. The Mayor of the Buea Council who asked for the creation of a City Council was simply ignored by the Head of State. We were expecting him to tell us that work on the Kumba-Mamfe road would soon start and when it is expected to be completed. Other developmental projects were also highly awaited. But he only said he wants other Regional Head Quarters to look like Buea. To me the visit did not profit the south West.


His English was satisfactory
-Chief Esambi Peter Ngoh 11 of Malende

I think the message was very good especially because he spoke in English. But I was disappointed by the fact that the promises he has been making were not fulfilled. Such promises like the tarring of the Kumba-Mamfe road and others. In a nutshell he did not give reasons why he was in Buea.
 
No answers to problems of SW
-Esapa Patrict Enyong, S.O.W.E.F.C.U President


I think the Mayor of the Buea Council made an error by limiting his speech only to Buea alone as concerns development. He failed to realize that at the moment he was presenting his speech he was speaking on behalf of the entire Region. Since he limited himself asking for the creation of a City Council in Buea and the granting of a full status of Buea as Divisional and Regional Headquarters, the Head of State simply ignored him. If he had even mentioned some of the problems of the Region in his speech the Head of State would have made some impromptu response to his questions.
