BOBA Douala chapter awards Prof Duga Titanji for outstanding achievements.

This was on the sidelines of the 16th National Executive Committee, NEC, meeting of the association.

The purpose of the meeting was to evaluate the association’s progress and projects. It came after the celebrations of the twin anniversary celebration; 75years of CPC Bali and 50 years of BOBA, organised in 2024.

During those twin celebrations, the President General said it was decided that they would offer a multipurpose hall to the school. 

Prior to the launch of the project, BOBA members at the NEC meeting in Douala discussed the state of its preparedness. 

Before Prof Titanji’s tenure, CBC Bali had been closed down for over five years, as a result of the armed conflict in the North West and South West regions. 

Upon assuming his role as BOBA President General, Prof Titanji and his team decided they will do everything possible to reopen the school. The school has since been functional.

At the award ceremony, Douala Chapter President, Ntumfor Barrister Nico Halle, praised Prof Titanji’s resilience and steadfastness in addressing the challenges faced by the ex-students association. 

Some key highlights of his tenure include: the twin anniversary celebrations marking 75 years of CPC Bali and 50 years of BOBA, successful reconciliation of chapters, reopening of CPC Bali, which is now proudly serving 600 students.

Reacting to the distinction, Prof Titanji said when the Douala chapter listed the things they have achieved, he was taken aback with such realisations within a short period of time.

Under his leadership, BOBA has renovated infrastructure, contributed to offer scholarships to students wishing to return to campus, they have galvanised the association which is now vibrant at home and abroad. 

The sacrifices, he said, have paid off with a more united and stronger BOBA. He urged members not to relent their efforts to see that projects still to be realised come to fruition. 

The Douala Chapter Secretary General expressed gratitude that the meeting ended successfully. 

He was optimistic that the prospects for BOBA are still very high as they are working on improving the condition of the school
