An excellent administrator called Ngelemedouga

Nguelemedouga was an excellent administrator, who represented the government fully well wherever he was posted. His obsession wherever he was posted, was to make sure that, all government agencies were present and functioning. He acted in the same way in Couseri and he was now acting in the same manner in Nyanon. One thing he fought hard to accomplish was to make the roads into and out of Nyanon, all season roads. For the roads leading into and out of Nyanon were stony and dusty in the dry season and stony and muddy in the raining seasons. Roads in and out of Nyanon had in both seasons, her share of inconvenience that she caused to her users. And Nguelemedouga wanted to help the people by trying to improve the conditions of those roads. He knew more than most, the importance of good roads in the development of the economy of enclave regions like Nyanon. Besides focusing on security and road issues of the sub district, Nguelemedouga also focused on health and education. Hence he encouraged the government to open primary and secondary schools and also a sub district hospital complete with a pharmacy. He also promoted sports and even sponsored a local football team and hand ball teams that was made up of separately of boys and girls teams, which even won the divisional competition.

Although Nguelemedouga was an excellent administrator, who won over the heart of the head state, hence whatever he asked he was given, he nonetheless had one weak point. It was women. Even though he was married and had three children amongst which was the brilliant Risdoh, Nguelemedouga could not see a woman and control himself and such a mannerism in Bassaland, was tantamount to walking on a tightrope, without protective nets beneath. The day that Nguelemedouga proposed to receive Cappolytree for a meeting in his office came and the businessman, put up an impressive motorcade made up of Japanese made four wheel drive cars and rode into Nyanon. Cappolytree thought that, he will be welcomed by Nguelemedouga at the bridge which served as entrance into Nyanon. The Nyanon bridge links Nyanon sub district to Ngambe sub district, and as the tradition requires, the sub district officer goes to the bridge, to welcome dignitaries coming to visit the locality. Even though Nguelemedouga did not go to welcome Cappolytree, he had made a ritual, since he was appointed sub district officer to go and welcome at the Nyanon Bridge, all dignitaries even leaders of the smallest political party who was in the sub district to stage a political rally. Cappolytree was not welcomed into the sub district at the Nyanon Bridge, as the tradition requires, he was not also welcomed either at the entrance of the office of the sub district building by the sub district officer Mr Nguelemedouga, but by one of his designated clerk. Cappolytree was not happy, for it was another snub from the sub district officer. But he was not surprised and could not do anything.
