The largesse of the MP comes in the context of the ravaging anglophone armed conflict where schools in Lebialem, like elswhere in the troubled regions, have been grounded in the past 8 years, necessitating the intensification of financial, material and moral support, if effective take-off of schools must be achieved.

On the heels of the cash disbursement, an ad-hoc committee coordinated by the Education Committee of the Menji Council and presided at by the Second Deputy Mayor, laid out a plan to facilitate the provision of essential school materials to the needy children in the area.
The committee purchased and distributed materials in terms of exercise books, pens, pencils, rulers, erasers and water bottles, triggering unreserved excitement among the children, as they looked forward to beginning or re-beginning their academic journeys.
