If it's food we'll give them, if it's money we'll give them. Let them come so we can sit and talk. We don't and will not involve the military. Grants are available, projects are available. We have all that it takes to alleviate poverty and empower them now. Let them open the council doors. There's a huge budget for that. Look at what we've provided here today, there's still more.
 We'll hand them the packages we have for them and to all in the municipality" the mayor said.

Quarter Heads

According to the mayor, rallying the quarter heads at the Bamenda Epic centre thursday April 9th, to also gain knowledge from health experts on the sanitary measures to guard against Covid-19, was the best way to create a ripple effect of the campaign the council has embarked upon within the Community and get their opinions on the development agenda of the Community.

"The council has decided to henceforth involve all the quarter heads as development partners of the council. In this light all quarter heads are to benefit from a good number of advantages and financial benefits from the council in order to motivate and empower them financially as one of our drives to alleviate poverty in our community"

The quarter heads also had the opportunity to spell out the needs of their localities and made suggestions on how best they can assist the council generate revenue in overcoming the problems of potable water, electricity insecurity, capacity building etc, raised as some of the key challenges.

A medical team from the bamenda II district hospital gave practical lessons on the sanitary measures on COVID-19 and taught the quarter heads how to produce hand sanitizers.

Donations from the council

Bucket taps, sanitizers, tissues, face masks soaps and other basic hygienic products were handed to the quarter heads to placed at strategic areas of their various quarters.
