Councilors of the Ndu council have adopted the 2017 administrative, management and stores accounts. The 2017 administrative, management and store accounts were unanimously adopted on March 20, 208 in the Ndu council hall.

In an opening speech during that session, the mayor of Ndu Council Bunyui Emmanuel Nyugap disclosed that the 2017 accounts witnessed a a drastic drop which can evidently be blamed on the current crisis in the North West and South West region.

He said the sum of FCFA 445.338.247 came in as revenue in 2017 down from FCFA 571.484.058) of 2016. The most disturbing fact is that Ndu council is suffering from the same epileptic malaise like all the councils in Cameroon given that from statistics, the council is unable to generate up to 15% of its total revenue. This is however so because the Ndu council has not also been able to put in place strategists to generate income and more revenue locally. A picturesque of last year revenue stands as follows

-Brought forward for 2016- 41.840.253

-Local collection - 48.132.054

-State transfer credits - 60.550.626

-Transfer from FEICOM - 272.715.831

-PNDP funds - 22.099.483

Total expenditure stood at 397.890.889.

In his closing remarks, the SDO for Donga Mantung Nkwenti Simon Doh used the forum to call on the councilors, council executive and the staff to develop strategies to generate and or collect more revenue locally. He said the council should be able to generate ateast 50% of its revenue locally in order to be sustainable.
