EkondoTiti council votes 800m as 2017 budget

By Doh Bertrand Nua
The Ekondo-Titi Council has held its second and last ordinary session for 2016. The session was aimed to examine, deliberate and adopt the 2017 budget which stands at 800 million francs CFA balanced in revenue and expenditure, as against 700 million last year; an increase of 14.28%.  The session proceeded under the watchful eyes of the SDO for Ndian, ClamberlinNtou’oNdong.
                According to the mayor of EkondoTiti council, Mbongo Alfred Ngoe, the council will in the days ahead start experiencing some setbacks as FEICOM will begin deducting the loan which the council took for water projects to the tune of 25 million francs. He therefore appealed to the general public to exhibit maximum understanding and collaboration by paying their taxes to help the council in generating revenue.
                Mayor Mbongo Alfred said the 2017 road map of his council will include; the holding of four council sessions a year, the first will be to adopt the administrative, management and stores accounts, the 2nd to carry out a midterm evaluation, the 3rd to build up programmes for 2018 and the fourth to adopt the 2018 budget. He said activities aimed to disenclave inaccessible areas would be continued.
                Meanwhile the mayor has pledged to continue lobbying for funds in different quarters to carryout sporting activities, provide assistance to needy schools and other domains where the council’s attention is needed.
