Message from Judith Foyabo:
A huge thank you to all those who made it happen, most importantly our online donors, our community patrons who stuffed our envelops well in advance of this project - Yes it was a leap of faith without which all of these would not have been possible. A round of applause to our guests, the men, women, and children who rolled their sleeves and bagged 500 Sanitary kits in 2 hours.Thumbs up to our 'Cats' (husbands and significant others of Sakerettes) who bent over backwards in their respective homes, and our donnest hosts Mr. and Mrs. Ivo Nkwenji for donating their precious space to our wear and tear. God bless you and yours, for those who couldn't make it we know you had us in mind. This is an on-going project, please, continue to donate online for there will always be pre-puberty girls who need these kits. Shipment is on the way, Presidents and leaders of cultural/micro-groups and alumni who received letters from us, we hope you will honor it as a small gesture to this project.
Rendez-vous next year, you have one year to prepare, order your hats, practice your pinky raise and sip high tea, dance and eat good food for a unique cause. Get pampered and go away with fabulous raffle prizes!

HONORABLE ROSE MBAH ACHA
BAMENDA CHAPTER
"I am happy and elated that from my little corner. I have been noticed and lifted to the high position of a Minister. I am extremely happy and I thank the Head of State of the Republic President Paul Biya for the appointment. I was driving into my residence when I heard my name and it did not immediately occur to me it was for a ministerial portfolio".
(Quote from: allafrica.com)
"The many "retreats" we had in Saker prepared our hearts and minds to always trust in the power of prayer. We pray for traveling mercies for all those going down to Kumba for the AGM Convention. That God's angels will drive every bus or car carrying Sakerettes and their well-wishers to and fro. That God will be the Silent Guest in all discussions, deliberations, activities, and decisions that will be taken for the good of Saker Baptist College, Limbe. May the spirit of love, unity, and sisterhood, continue to be topmost in the hearts of all Sakerettes wherever they are (Africa, Europe, USA, Asia, etc.). God is always faithful in all He does. We want to thank you father for healing mercies on our dear Sis. Monica and many others. We continue to thank you father for judging a Sakerette - Honorable Rose Mbah Acha, faithful to handle the post of Minister Delegate - . We pray Lord that you will be there for her 24/7 guiding, protecting, and directing her in all her undertakings. We also know that "uneasy lies the head that wears the crown, but Father, with you leading her way, All will be well."
Happy Convention to all the Majors (graduating class of 1969) on your way to Kumba. Keep the bus drivers awake with those angelic voices: Lead on o king eternal, Praise the Savior ye who know Him; How firm a foundation; Shalalalampele de mamma, Shalalalampele (2×); O de mamma, O de mamma. Conventions take ex-students back 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, decades back memory lane. JUST ENJOY!!!!!"

* ExSSA-LIMBE came first in the SONG & DANCE Competition, due in no small part, to PIONEERS MARIA DIBO MUKETE - The "ANIMATRICE" and MONICA AKOACHERE FOCHO - The DRUMMER!!!! It should further be noted that she MARCHED, actually DANCED her way from Presbyterian Church Tiko Town to Airport Hotel, Venue of the AGM. (See Photo Album)
*Clarisse Agbor Enoetie who came first in Cameroon at the GCE "O" Levels, and Monela Mah-Ngum Ntonifor (daughter of recently departed ExSSA Vice Secretary Cathy Quashie Ntonifor), who came second, were in attendance! They were recognized (as in, HEAVILY SPRAYED & FARROTÉ-ED) for their brilliant performance. So also was Class of 1973's 60 year old 6 GCE "O" Level Champion, Sis Comfort Efosi Effange aka "SHOW BEEP"!! (See Photo Album)
(A TEARFUL MINUTE OF SILENCE was observed in honor of Late Cathy Mojoko Quashie Ntonifor, whose position in ExSSA's Executive remains vacant.
* The NEW Principal, Mr. WILFRED GHAWI SHOMSI attended the AGM, along with the Vice Principal, Chief AGBOR. (See Photo Album)
SOME HOUSE CLEANING ...
It was resolved that all chapters should register under EXSSA whose president is the President General, while other chapters have Presidents, hence the appellation PG in Cameroon, and not National President as was the case before.
Chapters that have not paid their dues, (as is the case with some currently), shall not be recognized by the Association. They were called upon to "regularize" their status, and it has been reported that one of them has already heeded the call and hastened to comply.
The President General just succeeded in registering the Association (ExSSA) this year!!!! (It wasn't registered before!!)
Its headquarters is in Limbe, and the address will always be the address of the sitting PG.
What we called the "National Uniform" is now the "Official Uniform" or the "Formal Uniform", and it can only be acquired by members who are registered under chapters that are registered under EXSSA, so all EXSSA chapters in the diaspora are expected to register in Cameroon. Furthermore, Registered Members under EXSSA are expected to sew and wear the EXSSA official uniform in its prescribed pattern.
* PARLIAMENTARIAN, Honorable GLADYS ETOMBI IKOME graced the occasion with her presence, while the unavoidably absent HONORABLE MINISTER DELEGATE AT THE PRESIDENCY OF THE REPUBLIC OF CAMEROON IN CHARGE OF SUPREME STATE AUDIT, Plucky Class of 77's JUSTICE ROSENGWARI FOMUNDAM MBAH ACHA sent a HEFTY sum of money as a personal donation!!!

ExSSA-BUEA'S OCTOBER 2020 MEETING ...
One of the reasons the now deceased MISS MARY NDIVE (later Mrs. MARY MANGA WILLIAMS) was my favorite Primary School Teacher is because of the SONGS she taught my fellow CLASS 4 pupils and I and the song she taught that I like the most is the "YOU CAN SMILE" song !
"YOU CAN SMILE, WHEN YOU CAN'T SAY A WORD,
YOU CAN SMILE, WHEN YOU CANNOT BE HEARD,
YOU CAN SMILE, WHEN IT'S CLOUDY OR FAIR,
YOU CAN SMILE ANYTIME, ANYWHERE!!!"
Needless to say, those lyrics, like the lyrics of countless other songs one sang as a child, didn't quite "sink" or "resonate" at the time but, BOY, have they become so much more MEANINGFUL, as time has gone by.
After the SORDID, MACABRE, GRUESOME and so SENSELESS events that occurred in KUMBA almost a week ago now, (which, I am certain, SHOCKED and EMBARRASSED Lucifer himself), it really did take seeing the PICTURES from ExSSA-BUEA'S OCTOBER MEETING to get me to crack a SMILE and then just LAUGH OUT LOUD once I viewed the VIDEO SNIPPETS of the group's version of the JERUSALEMA "challenge"!!!! OMG!!!
In short, as far as I'm concerned, 24-year-old KGAOGELO MOAGI aka "MASTER KG", deserves some sort of AWARD for getting us all, across the globe, dancing, (with or without a "PAN CHOP" in hand), through the unprecedented and unrelenting NDON that 2020 has brought upon the world!
To help you better understand what's "going down" in the pictures that make up the PHOTO ALBUM posted below, here's what Ms. Esther Ashu of ExSSA-BUEA had to say about that October 2020 Meeting:
"For each meeting we have a dress code. This time it was our pink and purple t shirts on white. We shared gifts and a special gift was offered by our president Emma Lebaga to 2 sisters Enjema Vevanja who was recently elected deputy Mayor for Buea and sister Commy Effange who will be graduating from University of Buea in December with a second class, upper division degree after retiring from public service as a grade one teacher. The meeting was a lot fun!"
