Kouontchou Emmanuel, Second Deputy City Mayor of Limbe Edev
Emmanuel Kouontchou, a senior civil engineer and Director of the National Advanced School for Public Works (NASPW) Annex in Buea is the pioneer Second Deputy Mayor of the Limbe City Council.

This is the kernel of elections that took place at the Limbe City Council deliberation chambers Tuesday, February 25, 2020 that saw Motanga Andrew Monjimba elected City Mayor and Karen Nora Muto Tango as first deputy City Mayor.

The pioneer LCC second deputy City Mayor, Emmanuel Kouontchou hails from Koung-khi Division of the West Region and his election is a celebration of the country’s living together. 

The quiet-looking but workaholic civil engineer who has been Director of   NASPW Annex Buea since 2005 has worked as engineer in the South West Region in various capacities for more than 25 years after graduating with flying colours from the NASPW Yaoundé in 1986.

Upon his graduation from NASPW Yaoundé in 1986, Kouontchou joined the public service and was posted to the Ministry of Public Works, Department of Roads.

From 1988-90, he served as head of service in the then Southwest Provincial Delegation of Public Works. In 1990, Kouontchou was appointed Divisional Delegate for Public Works in Ndian Division and after three years he was appointed Divisional Delegate of Public Works for Fako Division and after four years, he was promoted  to the rank of  South West Provincial Delegate for Public Works  where he served in that capacity for three years.

From 2000-2005, this duty-conscious civil engineer was lecturer at NASPW Buea where he demonstrated the mastery of civil engineering skills. That professional brilliance further worked in his favour. He would in 2005 be appointed as Director of NASPW Buea, a position he has held to date, attracting praises from both his hierarchy and the general Public.

In 2017, he was honoured by the State of Cameroon for his patriotism and commitment to nation-building.

He is a father of several children and married to Victorine Kouontchou, a former government employee.

Kouontchou is frontline CPDM member and has been CPDM Subsection President for Mile 4 Limbe.  The philanthropist, often assisting the underprivileged, has moved from being a mere councillor of the Limbe I Council to being one of the deciders of the Special Status package for the North West and South West Regions enshrined in Law No.2019/024 of 24 December 2019 to institute the general code of regional and local authorities.
