By Njodzefe Nestor in Bamenda
The new administrative director of the North West Livestock Development Fund, CDENO has been installed with a call on him to use the funds put at his disposal to meet the needs of the population.
The Minister of Livestock, Fisheries and Animal Industries, Dr. Taiga installed MbahMicheal who takes over from Daniel Mokom on Friday, June 28 2014.
    The installation ceremony which saw the turnout of a mammoth crowd and a cream of the NW administration took place at the Bamenda Congress Hall.
    Commissioning the new CDENO Boss, the Minister said that the North West Livestock Development Fund was created because the NW Region plays and important and strategic role in the production of livestock in Cameroon.
    He reminded the population that the 14 year old fund has as objective the protection of animals, provision of livestock infrastructure, development of pasture and livestock production.
    Dr. Taiga observed that the task of the fund has become daunting with the tarring of the Bamenda-Inugu stretch of the road which will increase the demand for livestock as the NW region will be exposed to a larger African market.

    The Minister challenged the new CDENO administrative director who is a seasoned economist specialized in economic policies to use his knowledge to meet up with the needs of the population.
    In a welcome address, the Government Delegate to the Bamenda city council, Vincent NjiNdumu thanked the government for the developmental projects implemented by MINEPIA and MIDENO saying the projects have gone a long way in improving the lives of the NW population. 
    The occasion was attended amongst others by the governor of the North West region, Adolf LeleL’Afrique, the SDO for Mezam, NgueleNguele Felix, BarristerNtumforNico Halle amongst others.
