By Njingang Godwin

Kumba, Cameroon- September 17, 2017-10: 30 PM Local Time (Cameroon News Agency) The Senior Divisional Officer for Meme in the South West region, Nto’ou Ndong Chamberlain has described the elites of Konye sub division as being too weak to convince parents to send their students and pupils back to school.

The senior civil administrator made the comments in Konye Thursday September 14th, 2017 while commissioning the newly appointed divisional officer into his functions. He used the occasion to emphasize to parents that education is the fundamental prerequisite to success and that they have to allow children calve out their future.

Nto’ou Ndong challenged the new civil administrator to ensure that he uses all the available means in his disposal and get the children to school this Monday.

Away from school resumption, he was also asked to check the flow of illicit drugs in the sub division, the consumption of contraband products and most especially the chieftaincy crisis that has been rocking the sub division.

Being elite of the south west region, the DO will equally be faced with the uphill task of dealing with the current Anglophone crisis. The SDO praised the out gone divisional officer Hotison Babila for the contributions he has made in elevating the Konye municipality and for enabling the almost completion of the tarring of the kumba-Mamfe road where Konye is a proud beneficiary and urged him to continue in his new post in Niete in the Ocean division of the south region.
