Tongues are waging in Nkambe, Divisional
Headquarters of Donga Mantung following a communiqué issued by the Senior
Divisional Officer, Ngone Ndodemesape Bernard calling on the
Divisional Delegate of Public Contracts-MINMAP, Chin Emmanuel to resume his
post with immediate effect. Fear and consternation is reported to have gripped
stakeholders and vote-holders when the communiqué was aired on local radio
stations. Reports say the where-about of the Divisional Delegate became a topic
of discussion in “sha” and “nfiang” drinking spots as well as drinking parlours
giving that he was more of a visiting delegate than resident. Yet it is alleged
that those who are closer to him know MINMAP Delegate as someone who visits
his office once in a blue moon and or is spotted only when he has pressing
issues to handle (note contractors, et cetera). It is feared that the execution
of Public Investment Budget-PIB in Donga Mantung is likely to be the lowest
nationwide. Last year, Donga Mantung was ranked as the lowest in the North West
Region, a situation that has sparked worry amongst the populace. Allegations are
rife some beneficiary communities were threatening to move to the streets to
express their disgust. Yet, the depending doom was
rescued by the communiqué by Donga Mantung SDO. However, classified source say
Chin Emmanuel was spotted in Nkambe yesterday. When contacted, the SDO
confirmed that the Divisional Delegate regained his office yesterday Thursday
July 3rd. Notwithstanding, a school
of thought holds that there is a tussle of interest as to who should award
contracts.
