The newly elected President of the 1987 class of students (87Stars) of Government Bilingual High School (GBHS) Kumbo, Roland Laika Ngong, has issued a rallying cry for collaboration as the new team takes leadership of the alumni association.

Roland Laika Ngong made the appeal shortly after been declared winner during the elective General Assembly Meeting (AGM) that took place recently in Yaoundé.
Addressing the 87Stars, praised the outgoing executive committee for establishing a strong organizational foundation and promised to build upon their achievements. He stressed that the election’s conclusion marks the beginning of a collaborative chapter for all members, regardless of their voting choices.
“Winning this election was never just about one person,” the President said. “It was a victory for all of us and for the shared vision we hold for our batch. Campaigns can be rigorous and passionate, but now that the election is over and behind us, it is time to unite. I promise to work just as hard for those who did not vote for me as I will for those who did.”
He noted that the organization must transition quickly from campaigning to executing its development agenda. He called on members to pitch structured, data-driven initiatives to the executive committee to spur economic and social growth within the alumni network.

“We have greater unity, unshakable strength and economic growth ahead of us,” the President stated. “We should bring to the executive committee individual and collective proposals for projects that can be measured, controlled and evaluated so that we can collaboratively execute them to forge ahead.”
Alumni associations for schools like GBHS Kumbo play a vital role in Cameroon, often funding school infrastructure, providing scholarships and creating professional networking pipelines for graduates.
To maximize the association’s impact, the newly elected president challenged active members to serve as ambassadors and re-engage classmates who have become inactive. He urged them to spread what he called “the good news” to their passive peers, welcoming them back to the fold.
“Tell them the doors are open and waiting for them, and that the ship is about to set sail,” Ngong said. “They should hurry up and join the ship of their darling 87Stars Kov.”

In a final appeal for collective action, the President said, “If we want to go fast, we go alone. But if we want to go far, we must go together.”
