Speaking at the
official installation of Suila Aruna Kidze as the new mayor of Nkum Council in
Bui Division, the Senior Divisional Officer for Bui, Nzeki Theophile said that
solemnity of such a magnified ceremony needs no demonstration given that it
consecrates an oath that all the new personalities coming to the helm of the
council must take. He told thousands that showed up at the installation
ceremony that “time has come for real business” which starts with the new set
of councilors. SDO Nzeki Theophile emphasized that the election of Nkum council
executive did not only took place according to the rules and regulations
governing councils in Cameroon but have been endorsed by the Minister of
Territorial Administration and Decentralization. Before moving to those who
were to be installed, Nzeki Theophile thanked the outgone mayor, Mayeni Kifon
and his team for being result-oriented and at the same time ushered in the
Suila Aruna and his team.
Nzeki Theophile
challenged the incoming council executive as well as councilors to never lose
sight of the importance of putting in place the basics that will enhance
development with more maturity, and responsibility. He also called on the newly
elected council executive to remove their political jackets and forge ahead
with the development of Nkum council area, meaning that Suila Aruna though a
militant of the
SDF is mayor of all citizens. Before performing the
installation rite, he cautioned that the execution of projects should be done
according to the norms laid down by law and that the huge resources devolved by
the government as part of decentralization process should be utilized
effectively with transparency.
It should be
noted that Suila Aruna is an old hand in council management system given that
he had served for several years as deputy mayor to Mayeni Kifon. Talking to
journalists after the installation, Suila Aruna said the development of farms
to market roads, health facilities, and construction of schools as well as provision
of potable water will constitute his priorities.
