Demise of my cousin Oscar

A cousin of mine Oscar Lemfon passed unto glory last Sunday. His father Lemfon Casian passed away two years or so. Oscar was born in Kimar and stayed there until he completed class 7. He then moved to stay with his father in Foumbot where he learned a trade as a mechanic driver. He later moved to stay in Bamenda with his then uncle late Fomduwir Christopher and the family. Eventually, he started driving a taxi in Bamenda which he did for several years. God blessed him with a beautiful and industrial wife (Marceline). God has equally blessed their union with 3 children - Therese who is in Form 3 in G.B.H.S Bamenda, Ramson who is in primary 5 and Caleb who is still a toddler at the time Oscar left them. Oscar and his family lived in Bamenda near Longla Comprehensive college Mankon. Until the time he died, he was a driver with Vatican Express mostly plying the Bamenda Wum road. He has been a taxi driver in Bamenda town for several years too. On Saturday 11th October he complained to his wife that he was feeling feverish. Took his vehicle to the garage for regular checkup. On that night they stayed well as a family but in the middle of the night the story started changing. Marceline called the landlord and people around and before they could take him to the hospital, he had given up the ghost.
Adieu Oscar until we shall meet again one day to part no more.

Working Trip to Misaje, Bum & Ako

My colleague Marcel Nko'o came from Yaounde and we traveled to Banso to catch up with the helicopter because we were over weight and the helicopter could not carry us all the way from Bamneda. It took us two hours from Bamenda to Banso and exactly 11 minutes from Kumbo to Misaje by air. We had a good time working in Mijaje and proceeded to Bum the following day. We then traveled to Ako to work with the Mbembe team. In all the teams we did IT working ranging from servicing computers, to installing programs, troubleshooting and fixing problems. We also installed solar panel inverter or batteries and ensured that the system of electricity by solar and generator was working properly. It was a very productive trip. We also had fun on the way pushing the car and even trekking at some hills from Ako to Nkambe. We were able to stop by and greet my parents in Banso. Did some shopping at our Sop market and came home with a car full of food stuffs. My colleague Marcel left for Yaounde by night on board Amour Mezam.
