Emmanuel is a son of the soil who after
staying in the United States of America for many years returned home to his
people with an individual initiative to put smiles on their faces.
An enthusiastic atmosphere was observed
amongst the teachers and most especially the pupils upon the sight of the
materials brought fought by the professor as they were visibly clapping and
jumping on their feet, an indication that they were happy not only to receive
their elite but a man whose books are being used by the same school.
Before presenting the gifts to the
school, Prof Emmanuel, who is a senior international communication expert, took
out time to instill educative and moral values in the pupils. He stressed on
the importance of education in today’s society and enjoined them to take their
studies seriously. To achieve a brighter future, he added entails respect for
oneself, respect for elders, teachers, the administration and above all seeking
the face of the lord in every difficulties and every situation of life.
According to the media management and
advocacy expert, the development of any community depends on the collective
effort of people leaving in that area. His laudable initiative according to
him, is aimed at enabling the pupils to grow up and become better persons in
society so that they can be able to do unto others what he had done to them
triple folds.
To match words with action, Prof
Emmanuel who is a lover of football and sports in general donated a football
and sports jerseys to the primary school’s team. Carefully selecting the choice
of jersey, the learned professor chose that belonging to a France based team
dubbed Paris St Germaine which he said is one of the best performing team that
sees victory and success as their watchwords. In like manner, the sports
promoter would love the same spirit to reign amongst the pupils.
Handing over the items to the vice
headmaster of the said school, he said “football is a very good and unifying
game; a way to socialize and relate with one another. I call on all of you to
use this medium to build sustainable friendship amongst yourselves for a better
tomorrow”.
Besides the ball and jerseys, the pupils
equally received some didactic materials like pens, pencils amongst others. As
if that was not enough, pupils received with delight when the communication
expert announced his willingness to pay the school fees of meritorious pupils
in each class come next academic year 2015. He urged the pupils to work harder
and grab the opportunity. He also promised to pay the fees of pupils from very
poor homes whose parents barely manage to send them to school.
Thanking the august guest on behalf of
the school, the vice head master, Suh Alfred Yuh heaped encouraging words to
him saying that God will shower his blessings upon him for a better Cameroon
tomorrow.
Coming back to his homeland with such an
astounding initiative, Prof Emmanuel believed that education begins in the home
and he had come to continue the works of his father who was the pioneer
headmaster and teacher of the said primary school and a lover and promoter of
community development. Carrying out such a gesture for the second time, Prof
Emmanuel intends to continue on a yearly basis for the growth and development
of his community.
He equally paid a courtesy visit on the
Njinikom Catholic Orphanage where he offered some financial assistance to the
children.
