There was euphoria and fanfare in Njap village, Nkambe Central subdivision where hundreds of youths from far and near gathered to applaud Kwefi Blessing’s efforts to promote the football nursery in that village. The sound of the vuvuzelas and the noise from football fans and supporters went echoing into the lowlands of Ngie, down to the valleys of Mantu and Ngong while the drumming and singing could also heard right up the hills of Mbuuh. It was emting signals that something significant was taking place in Njap village. In fact, it was the finals of the first edition of a football tournament donated by a young dynamic entrepreneur, Kwefi Blessing Fanyu based in Yaounde. This football tournament for both men and women was described as the first of its kind in Njap village to be sponsored by a young girl.
The tournament which has been
described by football lovers and observers as a unifying tool entered into
records as one of the biggest crowd pulling event this year. In fact it was a
moment of merry making as many young girls who could not have the opportunity
to salute her efforts in promoting football did theirs in songs.
In the male category,
Free Boys FC crushed Boujo FC to win the trophy of the day. In the female
category, The Young Shall Grow also
emerged winners of the 2017 edition. Talking to us after such an exploit, Kwefi
Blessing said when she was waking up to life, one of her dreams has been to
promote youth activities, reasons why see decided to sponsor the tournament
from her little earnings. “I
have been dreaming of making people happy since I was a kid. And the only way
is to organize something like this” he added. She however emphasized that she
is leaving Njap back to Yaounde very satisfied with prospects of supporting
some talented players spotted during the tournament. Those who took time to attend the finals went home more satisfied than when they were going. The lesson has been a touching one, that what a man can do, a woman can also do it with alot of dexterity. Her humble success in the tournament is a eye opener to many young women in Mbum land who have failed to think out of the box. She is the woman emancipator of the month even that every young girl in Njap village and surrounding villages look up to her as their role model. Her trappings in contributing to village animation through football is what is making news in the entire Donga Mantung Division.
