Also top on the agenda shall the election of a new national bureau of FADCA since the second mandate of the current bureau has come to an end. The election of the New Executive is very vital tote existence of FADCA. THE election is drawing particular attention from all sons and daughters of Bafanji around the world. The debate on the election of the new bureau has been more electrifying in the Bafanji citizen group. Some are of the opinion that election should be put on hold until such a time when it shall be possible to hold the General assembly in the village. Other opinions hold that delegates shall be coming from all quarters of the village. Therefore, all branches shall be fully represented for the election to go ahead as planned. The post of president seems to the most attractive in the general election with several candidates vying for the post. Prominent amongst the candidates are Mr Musi Vincent, High school teacher and Mr Tamba Rouben , founder of UB construction and petroleum.

Mr & Mrs Musi for president.

Both candidates have announced their interest to run for president in the Bafanji citizen group. They have each published their manifesto. It is incumbent upon each candidate to convince the delegates through a meaningful and feasible plan of action. However, the outgoing president, Mba Tiemuniji William has cautioned all candidates to show proof of maturity by avoiding smear campaigns and blackmailing that is plaguing partisan political campaigns. Electorates and delegates are also cautioned to exercise restraint and avoid divisive debates and to put the development of Bafanji kingdom before any personal ambition.

Mr.Rouben Tamba, candidate for President.
I am Rouben Tamba, an active FADCA member with the Bafoussam Branch, from the Tamba’s family. I’m the son of late lawyer Peziegieh Patrick Tamba from Njantang quarters, who before his demise served as President General of FADCA & President for Kumba branch. My grandfather ( Mbah Tieuh Johnson Tamba ) was a notable who served the Fon and the Bafanji community faithfully, until his death.   I’m married with two kids and have extensive experience in management. I’m the founder of UB Constructions and Petroleum Company Ltd. As a fervent Fieh Lunglue, I promise to campaign for the installment of the water project for the whole village. I will also try and do the electrification of other rural areas through our collective collaborations. I also hope to mobilize the youths by organizing youth summer cultural festivities that will be galvanized by sporting events such as football. Please trust me with your votes and I will not fail you all.   Plan of Action Getting FADCA working again. – Putting in place Serious FADCA Regional & Divisional branches which will be known by Administrative authorities in the different localities. – Set up a FADCA secretariat with up to date machines in the village (computers, laptops, two photocopy machines & a generator). – Putting FADCA at the International level with international developmental Agencies, – FADCA activities reports will be presented very after three months, with distributions to Regional & Divisional branches, – Notice board shall be mounted at strategic places in the village like Quarters & Junctions, – FADCA national bureau will every three months meet with Quarter heads in order to make assessments of projects on the ground, – For the uncompleted projects a special committee will be created with respect to abandon projects & a speedy plan activities to finalize the projects within the shortest possible time, – I shall put in place a participatory & transparent management of the Village development funds, – Digitalization of the financial reports which will be made publicly quarterly, – Creation of a FANJI COOPERATIVE CREDIT UNION.  

This is Musi Vincent, candidate for the post of president general of FADCA. I am 59yrs old. A high school teacher and school administrator. I am the son of Tieneh Leongand Menkieu Hongwie all of the blessed memory. A founding member of FADCA in which I served as Secretary general for 14yrs. In that capacity, I did much for Bafanji.  Constituted files that led to the creation of GBHS Bafanji and GTC Bafanji. Coordinated the renovation of the palace and the Fan’s funeral. Instrumental in the building/roofing of the community Hall that has now been left to rot. A Nigerian writer says “an old man cannot sit and watch she goat suffer the pains of parturition on its tether” I do not, therefore, wish to idle and see FADCA come to naught. FADCA today has no base which is dangerous. The village has developed a disenchantment for everything FADCA. This explains why for 3 years the village has virtually refused to contribute FADCA dues. FADCA must be given back to the people because it has become an elitist affair. With the experience that I have and the capacity to turn things around, I will want to take FADCA to its glorious past.

  1. Great job. This innovation with candidates having a manifesto is a laudable initiative. Also thanks webmaster for making FADCA digital to meet the needs of the digital wold. It will be great if those in the diaspora have a way to vote too. Think about it. If we have a link that one can vote only once and it expires then I think we can make it. My humble proposal

  3. This is an excellent job. This is one of the innovations that was highlighted in the wake of this outgoing presidency. I am really glad to say it is better to be late than never since more information and communication skill is creeping into FADCA . I AM VERY EXCITED AND HOPEFUL ABOUT SOME of the demands made on this platform for improvement. Kudos webmaster.

  4. I am particularly pleased with the turn of events and attitude.
    In the very recent past, no one was interested to lead the development association and people were basically forced to it. But today we are glad to see many people especially the youths take serious interest in our development endeavors and voluntarily putting up their candidature to the post of president of our development association.
    This must be very encouraged and the youths should be given the chance to express themselves. They have observed the older generation for quite a while and have gathered enough experience to excel with the assistance of every body.

  6. Hey! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
