Back To School: Wum Ready to make the difference.


The population of Wum in Menchum Division, have started keeping their various  school premises clean, ahead of the new school year that begins on Monday September 5 2022.

The population, both old and young came out as one man to clean both public and private institutions especially those that have been abandoned and whose campus have been invaded by  wild grass.


Prior to the back to school, preparations have reached fever pitch. The Divisional Officer of Wum Subdivision, Ngoe Godfrey Nembi, brought together Headteachers, Principals, education stakeholders and traditional authorities to brainstorm on two major challenges affecting the smooth running of schools within Wum Subdivision; Insecurity and absenteeism of teachers.



From the various interventions of school heads and the Inspectorate of Basic Education of Wum subdivision, last academic year was better that the previous. Even if the schools are not functioning at 100%, at least 70% of the schools opened their doors last year. The Divisional Officer used the meeting to plead with the Elite of Wum to join forces so that we all can continue spreading this back to school message. Education is the only commodity that a parent can give to a child so lets all not relent our efforts of educating our children cause when you educate a child you are enriching the family" the D.O said.


Some lay private, missions and government schools have been tidied up and are set for an effective back to school 2022/2023 academic year.

FRENCH PRESIDENT, EMMANUEL MACRON, DISAVOWS DECENTRALIZATION AS SOLUTION TO ANGLOPHONE CONFLICT; OPTS FOR REGIONALISM.

  Image an elephant walked into the room. It's definitely something you would notice. It's also something people would describe in many different ways. Some might see it as a monster or a threat, while others (like The Colbert Factor) might think it's the greatest thing ever. It would ultimately mean something different to everyone, and that would influence the way each person understood it. The visit of the French President was the elephant walking into the Cameroon room.   Emmanuel Macron and Paul Biya in Yaoundé. July 25-27 2022 Last week's visit by recently re-elected French President, Emmanuel Macron, was too substantial to ignore. To most ordinary Cameroonians, his remarks after the close to two hours high-level talks with long-serving President Paul Biya, were great. To others, (especially those in government), they were a threat to what government had given a pat on its back for a fast-track of the decentralization process with a Special Status for the North Wes...

WUM COUNCIL: SDO VISITS HOLIDAY WORKERS.

For the past two months, the Wum Municipality has been a bee hive as many youths on holidays have been engaged by the Wum Council, to dig, clean and decorate the municipality with ornamental trees and flowers, this to the satisfaction of the population who always come out in their numbers to encourage these children.  The recruitment of these children, though a corporate social responsibility of the Wum Council, has been made possible thanks to the workaholic Mayor and his team. In one of such busy day of work, the Senior Divisional Officer of Menchum Division, Mr. Abdoullahi Aliou, paid a surprised visit to the children and encouraged them in their endeavour. You have been the lucky few to have been chosen to work and earn some money to help your parents send you back to school. Make sure that dream comes true. Do not in anyway disappoint the Council and the entire population who trusted you to have this job. Be good citizens and true patriots. Thank you for assisting the council ...
