The Kumba-Mamfe Road: Prof Agbor Tabi Would Not Use

This picture represents just about 2 percent of the very long Kumba-Mamfe-Ekok road. Those travelling this road from Kumba are giving early pictures. These are early pictures. A lot of work is still to be done. Most parts of the road remains in the usual style we know of. The sad thing is that the corpse of Prof Agbor Tabi might not be able to be transported through this road. It will surely go through Bamenda. By every indication, the corpse will be beaten by the road before it arrives his village.

We are told this project funding comes from so many sources with the government providing a very small chunk of its funds. While this is good for a start, the government must start thinking of making double lane roads if Cameroon must emerge. It would also lead to less accidents. Recall that once this road is completed, Kumba, which used to be the economic capital of Southern Cameroons might regain it lost status and competes with Douala.
