Within the framework of the activities to commemorate the 12th edition of the African Day of Decentralization and the 6th edition of the Civil Status Registration and Vital Statistic Day in the South West Region, a Sport Walk was organized by HE the governor of the South West Region, today 5th August 2023, from Buea Independence Square to Buea Town Green.
The day was crowned with a gala football match between the Buea Council and the National School of Local Administration (NASLA). It ended with the Buea Council having an edge over NASLA 3-1.
The Buea Council’s history traces back to 1922, initially established as the Bakweri clan council under Chief Mathias Lifafa Endeley during British colonial rule. It wasn’t until June 29, 1977, that it officially became the Buea Rural Council, formalized by Presidential decree No. 77/203. Prior to this, Buea served as the capital of Kamerun (Cameroon) under German colonial administration from 1901 to 1909 and later as the capital of Southern Cameroons under British rule
