Ndu Mayor reconnect the with Ancestors



In a bold fusion of tradition and modernity, the Mayor of Ndu Council, Abdou Kanfon Borno has taken steps to strengthen ties between the municipality and its ancestral heritage.
His recent decision to light up seven of the fifteen palaces of the municipality is a symbolic “thank you” and more as a reconnection with the ancestors of the land.

New Ndu council complex

As per Wimbum people, traditional authorities serve as liaisons between the living and the deads. By illuminating these palaces, the Mayor signals respect for that role and seeks to elevate the social standing of traditional institutions within Ndu municipality. The initiative is considered as a way to bridge the mayor’s administration with ancestral authority, with the expectation that such alignment will invite blessings for good governance and reinforce communal unity.



This move positions Mayor Borno as the first Wimbum municipal administrator to make a tangible shift in how tradition and modernity intersect at the local level.
The phrase “the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world” captures the underlying intent of  nurturing culture  to shape civic life.

“By preserving cultural heritage  while initiating more development projects,  Ndu Council sets a benchmark for grassroots development in  Donga Mantung Division. 
Seven from the fifteen palaces of  the Subdivision  notably ,Ndu Fon’s Palace  ,Ntumbaw, Talla ,Ntundip, Ngarum,Mbipgo and Sinna palaces have been electrified with solar energy. The process is still ongoing.  He said. 

He stated that traditional authorities act as auxiliaries of the administration and must maintain 24/7 contact with municipal and administrative officials. 

With the rise of solar energy, traditional authorities now need these devices to charge phones and power other electrical appliances like televisions. 

He argued that the palace is a mirror of the village, reflecting the caliber and attitude of the elite toward development. To encourage traditional rulers to remain in their palaces as custodians of the land, they should be provided with modern social amenities. He said. 

He envisage to restoring Ndu Town’s long-lost fame as the economic hub of Donga Mantung Division. He also recalled the many projects accomplished during his mandate and shared his outlook for the future of Ndu Subdivision.

Image
One of the major causes of political upheaval is hunger. Hunger imcompases social misery, poverty, frustration, etc, as "a hungry man is an angry man". If political leaders of this nation understood this human pacification politics from the genesis of the Anglophone crisis, the stalemate could not have escalated to Crisendo.   It is worth noting that the Anglophones fury  stems from disequilibrium in the distribution of the national cake. Although the stalemate went into extremism causing untold hardship to the population, the assistance to the internally  displaced population of the region by the Ministry of Territorial Administration during this festive period is a big heave   of relief to many who hitherto go to bed on an empty stomach.  Many Kudus has been given to MINAT for the timely material assistance to the vulnerable  population of the region. The exercise maned by the Senior Division Officer for Mezam ,  Simon Emile Mooh  was full of camaraderie and euphoria of a g...
