Buea: opposition joins CPDM in Paul Biya’s 42nd anniversary celebrations
In an event fully coloured with fabrics of the Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement (CPDM), some opposition leaders in Buea were present at Mbongo Square on November 6, in their party wears.
Notably the UPC South West senator, Leke Besongoh Akemfor Philip and the SDF district chairman, Efokoa John Mofoke. They also took part in the cutting of the anniversary cake by the Governor of the South West, Bernard Okalia Bilai, assisted by leading elites of the section.
“The take home message is that of gratitude to God who has kept president Paul Biya for 42 years as a servant of the nation,” the Fako III Section President, also the Mayor of Buea, David Mafani Namange said.
Quoting the book of Romans in the Bible, the Fako III section president noted that leaders are chosen by God and have to be respected. “We are not saying that all is perfect as he has himself stated from time to time. But we are saying that, we can work together to build the national edifies to make things better than they are today,” Mayor Mafani said.
Celebrations took place under the theme; “Let us mobilize as one man behind President Paul Biya to ensure the stability and progress of Cameroon around the ideals of Peace and National Unity”.
