From Nkambe District Hospital to the Nkambe Baptist Church, thousands gathered on the streets of Nkambe town to pay their last respect, to a mother, grand mother and the heroin of generosity. From politicians to buyam sellam, truck pushers, okada riders, farmers, traditional rulers, administrators, everyone was there. What a big way to say goodbye to a mother, who was mother of all. Almost everyone had a story to tell about Mama MAG.

The state of nature of the stretch of the ring road from Nkambe to Ndu has been rendered impassable. This is so following the heavy down pour of the rains these days. Movement by cars and heavy duty vehicles from Nkambe to other parts of the North West through Ndu have come to a standstill. The landslide occured at Mbot around the Tabenken junction.  Traveling from Nkambe to Ndu is a nightmare. These days transport fare from Nkambe to Ndu is FCFA  3000 as compared to FCFA 1,500. For the past months, drivers plying the ring road have expressed disgust over the poor state of the road. Even though the Nkambe council and the drivers union have tried repairing the bad spots, the situation is very pathetic as of now. Years ago, the road was diverted on this very spot but front wheel drive vehicles had difficulties using the new road.  Prospects are high that an immediate solution would remedy the nightmare.
