The Mutengene water scheme, a project meant to supply potable water to residents of Mutengene in Tiko Subdivision, South West, has today been inaugurated by the Minister of Decentralisation and Local Development, Georges Elanga Obam.

The water project worth FCFA 1 billion consists of a water catchment constructed at Mile 14 Dibanda, which has already been supplying Mutengene residents for months now.

The project was realised by the Council Support Fund (FEICOM) and the German Corporation KFW and is being managed by the Tiko Council. Also present at the commissioning of the project was the German Ambassador to Cameroon, HE Dr. Corinna Fricke.

Prior to today’s inauguration, the Council has installed at least 42public buildings in 20 quarters in Mutengene.

However, the water scheme yet to be fully commissutilised utilised.

In March, the Mayor of Tiko, Chief Mesoso Peter Ikome, said the water had not been fully handed to the Council to manage and this created disparities in consumption among residents.

Some private individuals, he alleged, were stealing water catchment and bringing it catchment into their homes. Today’s inauguration will pave the way for the water to be fully utilised.

The project is expected to meet the potable water needs of thousands of people living in Mutengene and bail the town out of a longstanding water shortage.

The scheme is part of an enlarged project by the government and its partners to provide potable water to the entire Fako Division, which, despite its rich water potential, continues to battle water scadivisi

Key towns in the Division, like Buea and Limbe, continue to suffer from water scarcity, with many people turning to boreholes for drinking water despite reported health risks.
