On the strength of the customs and traditions of Balikumbat fondom in Ngoketungia Division, the official announcement is still awaited as the fondom grapples with the disappearance of His Majesty, on September 1st, 2012.

No information has filtered on the cause of his death as close sources said he was active a few days earlier. On the throne since 1977, Fon Doh is closely associated with the heights and depths of the fondom. He takes credit as the former Mayor of Balikumbat Council and CPDM Member of Parliament of the Balikumbat Special constituency who served two terms up to 2007.

In effect, His Majesty, Fon Doh Gah Gwanyin III has been on virtually every lip on the political map of Balikumbat Special Constituency. CPDM party comrades say he is remembered for a visionary approach to politics, defending the ruling party against all odds. Sons and daughters of Balikumbat fondom also say that he was the political bedrock of the area which became known as one of the bastions of the CPDM in the North West Region. CPDM Section President for Balikumbat II, Bayin Ignatius says that as the Mayor, His Majesty, Fon Doh Gah Gwanyin initiated road projects that linked Balikumbat Sub-division to neighbouring Awing village in Santa Sub-division. He is also associated with the creation of the Balikumbat Development Organisation (BADO) which emerges as the unifying instrument for Balikumbat sons and daughters. Balikumbat is one of the 13 villages of Ngoketungia Division.

Earlier on August 28, 2012, another illustrious son of the North West Region, Rt. Chief Justice Nyo'Wakai died. He is remembered as one of the finest icons of the nation's Magistrates in the then West Cameroon who later served in the Supreme Court of Cameroon. He also served as the Chief Justice of the North West Region.
