Authoritative Sources around the Social Democratic Front (SDF) have hinted The Hilltop Mail that the Regional Convention of the party will take place on Saturday 23 September 2023. The objective of the convention according to our sources is to elect the Regional Leadership of the party in preparation for its National Convention scheduled for October this year.
In a recent meeting in Yaoundé, the National Executive Committee of the SDF ordered the
reorganization of the party in the region setting Saturday 23 September 2023 as deadline. Though the venue has not been made known, The Hilltop Mail has it on good authority that the Regional Convention will take place in Bamenda
During the most recent activity of the party which was the burial of the late Chairman Ni John FruNdi, the Mayor of the Bamenda III Council coordinated the region. Speculations are high that the leader of the lone SDF council in the North West Region may be elected the regional chairperson.
Apart from being Mayor of the only SDF managed Council in the region, Fongu Cletus Tanwie has also served in deferent structures and offices of the SDF including the regional organizing secretary. He is said to have had a close relationship with the late Ni John Fru who was last seen in a public event in Bamenda at the Nkwen Palace during the Bamenda III Council Festival of Heritage Arts and Culture organized by his Council in December 2022
The SDF in the North West Region has been headed by Hon Njong Evaristtus. The ongoing armed conflict in the region has made party activities difficult. His whereabout is not known.
