Fonya Felix Morfaw was born on 16 February 1960,to a large
family of 13 brothers and 12 sisters. His father, Pa
Morfaw Ambrose Efuetanjoh who was an outstanding elite
of Ndungated Fondom became coronated with the title of
Chief Forji in 1978. This explains why most of mr
Fonya's juniors bear Forji instead of Morfaw.
Mr Fonya Felix Morfaw valued education and took his
studies very important. He attended Seat of Wisdom
College Fontem, CCAST Kumba, and graduated from Younde
University. He passed both the entrance exams into 'Higher
Ecole Normale' (Yaounde) and the prestigious National School of Administration and Magistracy (ENAM-Yaounde) in 1987 but chose the latter upon consideration. Upon graduation, mr Fonya was posted to the Governor's Office in Buea. A year later, he was
appointed to serve as legal and financial adviser to
the Governor's Office in Bertoua, where Achu Morfaw
also served as governor at the time.
During that time, he met with several top government
representatives including the head of State, Paul
Biya. At the same time, he met several appearance and
interviews to CRTV. He would later be sent to Yaounde
where he worked in the ministry of Territorial
Administration. He served as D.O of Bangem for 3
years; D.O. of Akwaya for 3 years; D.O. of Muyuka for
4 years; and D.O. of the troubled region of Bakassi
for a year and a half, where his fateful life was
unfortunately and prematurely put to an abrupt end by
some of the so called barbaric pirates.

Mr Fonya Felix Morfaw is survived by his wife, mrs
Fonya Odilia, 4 children (2 sons & 2 daugters). He
would also be mourned by his mom, brothers, sisters,
uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, cousins, classmates,
friends, coworkers, and people of all works of life.
It should be recalled, Mr Fonya was the only D.O.
Lebialem Division had and only the second D.O. after
his late uncle, D.O Njuzy. He had earned the highest
ranking one could possibly get in Cameroon
administration as 'Administrateur Civil Principal'.

It is rather unfortunate that even with such attainment,
mr Fonya still had to be serving in the capacity as
D.O, where he eventually died in active service,
serving the country he so much loved, Cameroon. But
does the country love him back; will the country
remember his service, his patriotism, his siblings,
his children and wife he left behind? We hope they do
because so much depended upon him.
Our beloved brother, Mr Fonya Felix Morfaw invested so
much on people including his siblings and fellow
country men and that is why he would be so much missed
for ever.
We loved him, but God loved him most. My his soul
R,I.P.
