ENTER THE MUKETE CUP CHAPTER TWO.

 

The second Edition of the Mukete cup has kicked off in Kumba. Organized by Nfon Mukete IV Ekoko, Paramount Ruler of the Bafaw, this competition provides an opportunity  for all villages which comprise the Bafaw tribe to  come together and compete in a football tournament.

 Launched under the theme “Football at the center of Advancing Unity and Togetherness of the Bafaw”, this second edition was opened by Prince Ndoki Mukete, who was representing the Nfon Mukete IV Ekoko the Paramount Ruler.

In an address, Prince Ndoki Mukete urged the players to display a spirit of fair play in the course of the competition, while insisting that football is a beautiful game which should always gather and not separate people.

The opening encounter which took place at GPS (Government Practicing School) field, Kumba town, between Kumba Town FC and last year’s champions Bolo FC ended in a goalless draw.

Cheering the teams on the sidelines were football lovers, including administrative authorities in Meme Division, Bafaw youth and cultural groups who turned up to show their support for the tournament.

Sponsored with support from partners like CAMTEL, The Kumba City council and many others, the champions of this second edition will be crowed on the 27th of August.

DELA NGANGUH TAKES KUMBA OLD BOYS AND GIRLS ON A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE

 Members of the 'Kumba old boys and girls worldwide' Facebook community have in the past few weeks been gripped by a feeling of nostalgia after a group member, Dela Nganguh, took them on a trip down memory lane. Over the past few weeks, Dela Nganguh, from Ntoko Street Kumba, who is currently based in the UK, started publishing a series of articles in the group, which he captioned 'Kumba, untold stories. Out of his desire to transform a group which was fast becoming a venue for obituary announcements into a learning medium, he has taken members on a journey to the past by sharing in-depth stories about about the evolution of Photography in Kumba, the Yuruba businessmen and present day Lido Street, as well as the contribution Dela Nganguh of the Ghanaian community in Kumba.

HOW OUR CAT MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARED IN FIANGO, KUMBA

 For many years, we lived with our beloved cat 'swifty' in the Buea Road neighborhood in Kumba, Cameroon. The environment was peaceful and ' swifty' had many friends. She would often disappear for a few hours but would eventually find his way home on the evening. One day, due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to transfer Buea Road to the Fiango neighborhood. We worried about 'swifty' as we felt she would have a hard time adjusting to a new environment. But we had grown to love him so much so that the mere thought of leaving her behind was scary. That was how we took 'Swifty' along to our new house in Fiango. The first few days were challenging but she quickly adjusted over the next few weeks. One evening, she came home with an injured leg and her body covered in blood. This was a sad evening for us. we never had such an experience before. We wondered if she would make it through the night. Miraculously, when morning came, she was up and running...
