Achu Michael, 4th year medical student, president of CAMESA considers the joint health campaign as an act of God. To him the partnership was never planned but it happened and it is going on successfully.  He, however, thanks the MSF for the partnership, the population of Manyu for their hospitality and cooperation. He extended his gratitude to Manyu elites based in and around Yaoundé for their financial contributions and to HRH Senator Tabe Tando for providing food, financial support and his humble palace to lodge  the health campaign.

Achu Michael expatiated that the healthcare campaign alternates every year from one division to another within the South West and the North West regions of Cameroon.  Mr. Achu went on to say that his medical team is in Manyu to do everything humanly possible to provide care to all villagers in the area.
