The Church he said remain a reliable partner of the state and went ahead to thank the Church for its laudable social services offered to Cameroonians in the form of schools, hospitals among other things. The Governor of the Northwest Region further said that God was the only guarantor of peace, growth, stability, security and prosperity. “I count on your prayers and you have the total collaboration and support of the Northwest Administration.” He equally transmitted the best wishes of the Head of State President Paul Biya and those of the Prime Minister and Head of Government Philemon Yang.

Christians he said shouldn’t be discouraged because Christ was still on the throne and the best was yet to come. He said “we can only be confident by knowing Christ and that this can be achieved by forgetting the past and moving forward focusing on the future.

He equally called on them to concentrate on getting new militants and conquering new territory. This he said needed their organisational and management skills considering the fact that it is a very challenging task. Hear him, “you should show militants that we are a party of exemplary people and that we are decent citizens. Show them that they will be better off by joining the CPDM. We have to show them our politeness, goodness, generosity, happiness, peace and hope.” This he said will make them see that the party created in 1985 was to bring them progress and contribute to the welfare of Cameroonians.

Dr. Dewah celebrates Family Feast on all Saints Day.

Dr. Dewah, the Chief Executive Officer of Dewah and Bros International Modern Traditional Clinic together with family, close friends, colleagues and Christians of the Kumba Diocese celebrated the Annual Family Feast and thanks giving Day on November 1, 2016. This day which is commemorated by the Church as Feast of All Saints began with a Holy Mass celebrated by Rev. Father Polycarp Fonjock, Canon of the Sacred Heart Cathedral, Kumba.

Thanksgiving and fund raising during mass for the construction of a church at Puletin Quarters was led by Dr. Dewa and wife.

In a message packed homily, Rev. Fonjock said it was wonderful to conceive the feast of all Saints as a family feast. He said it was a day billions of Gods Children were rejoicing in the Kingdom as Saints. The Padre said Saints were normal people who had experienced and gone through the same things that we are experiencing now. The perfect example he said was that of Saint Paul who set out to destroy the Church until God converted and gave him a new orientation which was that of building the church. Other examples he mentioned were Ignatius of Loyola and Saint Augustine. While the former was a soldier, the latter started off as a rough fellow but today Saint Augustine is one of those who have written so much. Rev. Fonjock concluded that God chooses and uses any person and that we are all candidates for Sainthood.

Dr. Dewah whose Palace played host to the holy Mass said this year’s family feast day was celebrated under the theme God in the center of our initiatives and successes.

This 9th family feast and thanks giving day he said was to raise funds for the construction of the house of God. The Family feast and thanks giving day he said was celebrated in Balikumbat for the first 8 editions before being shifted to Kumba in order to raise funds for the construction of a Church, the mission station of St. John Paul II, in Kumba.

His Lordship Bishop Nfon Agapitus who was unavoidably absent during the occasion was ably represented by Rev. Polycarp Fonjock, Canon of the Sacred heart Cathedral.
