He said if they put all hands on deck and work collectively then they will be able to meet up with development challenges.

“There is no other way to adequately express my profound gratitude than to organise this ceremony to heartily thank all of you for every sacrifice and endeavour you took to achieve this victory,” the MP stated. He also thanked President Paul Biya for the achievements so far accomplished. He invited the population to not only collectively celebrate their well-deserved victory but also bury and forget the animosities amongst themselves that emanated from the hotly contested senatorial, legislative and municipal elections.

Hon. Atinda Martin, however, pledged to listen to opinions and criticisms whenever or wherever it comes from, to enhance development in his constituency. Other speakers at the ceremony included Hon. Chief Justice Benjamin Itoe and Mrs. Ndoh Bertha, Special Adviser at the Prime Minister’s Office.
