Over the weekend ( May 23, 2025), I had the honour of being the Master of Ceremony for a remarkable event in Rome: the 53rd celebration of Cameroon's National Unity Day. The atmosphere was alive with cultural pride and unity.The event started with the powerful anthems of Italy and Cameroon, setting the tone for a day of celebration.
His Excellency, Sebastien Foumane, the Cameroonian Ambassador to Italy , graced us with a heartfelt welcome speech in which he called on all Cameroonians to continue working in unity towards peace and prosperity while fulfilling their civic duty at all times.
This was followed by insightful remarks from the representative of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation /Director for Sub-Saharan Africa -Minister Stefano De Leo. He said "Italy remains committed to strengthening our bilateral relationships and supporting Cameroon's development aspirations. Together we can build bridges of understanding and prosperity that benefit both our peoples "
The ceremony honoured three individuals (Mrs. Margaret Ayike, Mr. Frederick Ndang Nchaw & Mr Simplice Ngathe) with honorary medals; notably as Knights of the Cameroonian merit, for distinguished services to the nation.
Cultural performances by the Afrikanza Fusion and Ivanga Romania lit up the stage, culminating in the cutting of the beautiful anniversary cake in the presence of Sebastian Foumane (Cameroon 'Ambassador to Italy and Antoine Nzanga( Cameroon 's Ambassador to the Vatican, a host of dignitaries, members of the diplomatic corps, Embassy staff, hundreds of guests and fellow Cameroonians.
Another highlight was the grand Cameroonian buffet, a feast for the senses, that left everyone in high spirits.
This experience was a true highlight for me as an event host, and I'm eager to embrace more opportunities to bring people together in celebration.
With my extensive experience in radio and television, I bring a polished and engaging presence to any high-profile international or diplomatic event as your Master or Mistress of Ceremony."
