Councilors of the
Bamenda II Council, Mankon have adopted the sum of FCFA 1 002 000 000 (one
billion and 2 million) as budget for 2016. The councilors during the session
prioritize the acquisition of a (caterpillar) road grader as one of the top
projects for 2016. The ambitious budget of the Bamenda II council has been
described by many as a trump card given the the municipality harbors the
largest portion of Bamenda city in terms of land and population. Addressing
councilors at the session, Balick Awah Fidelis, mayor of the Bamenda II Council
said the budget is just a plan of how the council will spend the money that is
available. In a retrospective of the year 2015, Balick Awah Fidelis said last
year, the Bamenda II Council carried out rehabilitation and grading of some
roads in the council area. The 1st Assistant SDO for Mezam called on
the councilors to work in collaboration with council staff to realize the
budget which he described as very ambitious.
Small Money Big Change,
a programme initiated by the Bamenda II council in 2014 was applauded for
registering the highest gains in communities. The second phase which kick
starts in January 2016 was greeted with a lot of enthusiasm by the councilors
and population. Councilors were advised to submit project proposals. Also it
was also revealed during that session that the council registered 5603 birth
certificates, 536 marriages and 450 deaths. (Coming Soon: Balick Awah’s 2015
