The Prime Minister, Head of Government, Chief Dr Joseph Dion Ngute will commission the first ever modern playground in Bamenda on Saturday 6th July 2025.
Located at Ntaafi in the Bamenda I subdivision, the proximity stadium is seen as a jewel to the football loving population of the North West.
The Ntaafi proximity stadium constructed with funds from the Presidential Plan for Reconstruction and Development (PPRD) in collaboration with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), will host Elite one, Elite Two and Amateur matches in the region.
The reserved bench on site
For four years now, Elite Clubs in the North West Region have been plying their traits in stadia in neighbouring towns like Bafoussam and Mbouda, losing on gate takings and being on the road even to play home matches.
This very frustrating scenario has not only affected the clubs financially, but the football loving population of the region has been deprived of Elite one football for years.
Constructed on the former PS Ntaafi school field, the proximity stadium has a dressing room, a Tribune, a parking lot, an access road, a fence and a synthetic turf with is of international dimension.
Prime Minister Joseph Dion Ngute
Inaugurating this project which was initially supposed to be constructed for six months will bring enormous development to the Ntaafi and Atougoulah Communities.
The Prime Minister will be inaugurating the project in the sidelines of the 7th steering committee meeting of the Presidential Plan for Reconstruction and Development. The visit of the Prime Minister will also take him to other project sites where the PPRD has executed projects.
Schools, roads, bridges, water points, markets, support to the vulnerable population, start-ups are some key areas where the PPRD has carried out enormous work whose evaluation will be done in Bamenda on Friday 4th July 2025.
