Development projects in Mankon have always received the support of the Minister who has been termed an old town boy at the service of the community.

Perhaps what triggered the title from His Majesty the Fon, was the recent coordination of sporting activities. The 2021 triumph of PWD of Bamenda at the Cameroon cup final and the 2023 unfortunate defeat to Fovu, received exceptional mobilisation from the Minister who organized the transportation and feeding of fans, to and from Yaounde.

When PWD Bamenda lost its bus to a fire incident, resources were mobilized under the coordination of Minister Felix Mbayu and today, the Abakwa boys have an ultramodern bus that transports players and staff.

Most recently, the city of Bamenda was struck with a devastating fire. On the 22nd February 2024, the Bamenda main market went up in flames with some 300 shops lost to an inferno.

The Minister swung into action and funds are currently being collected to assist the victims.

These humanitarian and community driven works of the Minister have been saluted across the board.
