The Bui Family Union-United States of America aka NSO Cultural and Development Association Partnership on the 27th of May in the Nso Palace distributed medical equipment and material to some 40 health establishments drawn from all the six Sub Divisions of Bui worth over 300 million CFA.

Dr. Christian Bime, the President of the Bui Family Union USA handed over the donations in a soul searching ceremony that brought Fons of seven Fondoms and the representatives of some Fondoms in Bui Division, Mayors, the administrators and religious heads of Bui Division, and Chiefs of health institutions and many traditional dances and choral groups.

According to Dr. Christian Bime the project which started in 2009 has long been over due and was aimed at assisting, increasing and improving health infrastructure located in the Bui constituency.

He observed that after their maiden meeting in the US, they completed the first phase of donating medical equipment to health centres "then we found out if we could get more and so we partnered with “MAKE NGO based in Atlanta Georgia to be able to obtain and donate medical equipment valued at more than 300 million francs".

He lavished praises on Mformi Ndzerem Stephen Njodzeka, the National President of NSODA who through his services inspired them and the entire nation. He said there is greater power when individuals come to work together and to partner with a community to bring change.

Other speakers during the ceremony included Mformi Ndzerem Stephen Njodzeka, an elite of Bui, Mayor Fonyuy Fidelis Bernsah who spoke for the elite, the first Deputy Mayor of Kumbo council Mrs. Lukong Beri Magaret and the Senior Divisional Officer for Bui Mr. Nzeki Theophile all who unanimously lauded the government of Cameroon through the Prime Minister and Head of Government Mr. Yang Philemon, the Ministers of Finance and public health as well as NSODA for the various roles played to ensure the shipment of the equipment was exonerated from the payment of customs duties.

The climax of the event was recorded when Dr. Christian Bime on behalf of BFU-USA conferred an appreciation award on Mformi Ndzerem Stephen Njodzeka for job well done.

Reacting to the award, Mformi Ndzerem Stephen Njodzeka in his speech said their new vision is to build a strong partnership with the government of Cameroon. The celebration started with an ecumenical service by a series of clergy men coordinated by Rev. Fr. Paul Verla.
