IWD 2023: WOMEN CALLED TO HELP EACH OTHERS.


Women in Menchum Division have been called to support each other in order to grow, to shun fear and take a deep reflection to significantly contribute to end the current anglophone crisis rocking the anglophone regions of Cameroon and Wum  with it. The call was made during the celebration of the 38th International Women Day, with a focus on inclusive digital world, innovation and technologies for gender equality, which highlights the role of innovative technologies in promoting gender equality and meeting the health and development needs of women and girls. Despite the fact that women can be innovators and help transform the health of all people on the continent, much still needs to be done in order to close the digital gender divide, which mainly affects vulnerable women and girls, especially those in rural and remote areas with low levels of education and low socio-economic status.

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.

July 25-27 2022 Last week's visit by recently re-elected French President, Emmanuel Macron, was too substantial to ignore.

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 ...
