Mayor Chenwi Peter

“We have realised that we have a lot of security challenges in the Northwest region as a whole and my municipality and with a lot of projects that the head of states has previewed for this region and my municipality, we need to come together to dialogue to pave a way forward for us to realise this projects so we thought it very necessary that with the law of decentralisation we should involve everybody. The quarter heads are the main stakeholders of development that is why we brought them together to share memories to realise these projects. Our main problem is security challenges to realise this projects se we are pleading on the quarter heads to go back negotiate and call their sons and daughters in the bushes to allow the council to bring development. Development is for everybody not for a particular person so let them allow the council to realise the projects” Mayor Chenwi Peter told pressmen.

Councillors, Quarters heads at meeting

Quarter heads from the four villages that make up Bamenda II namely Mbatu, Nsongwa, Chomba and Mankon took the commitment to go back and effect project execution in their areas especially in having basic amenities like water, electricity and roads.
