It was exactly 2:15pm, when his Lordship
Bishop George Nkuo stepped on the soil of the Nkambe Quasi Parish situated at its Binka border.
He was received by five priests of the Parish, and others from the neighbouring Binju and Tabenken Parishes, a showcase of their deanery solidarity. He was escorted to the Binka village by over 30 motorbikes and three cars. After a 1-kilometre drive, the Episcopal convoy was received into the village entrance by Palace masqueraders. The "Nshikangs" in their numbers; the "Matuh", and the Ngoh, which hardly comes out, were all present to give the bishop a befitting welcome. The reception was more than a cultural bonanza.
Apart from few Christian groups which were spotted in their church-group uniforms, it was quite difficult to say who was a Christian or not. Other Christians could only be identified when they expressed their joy. Masqueraders joined the Christians to dance Church music. In fact, women had the opportunity to come quite closerbut to the "Matuh", a masquerade from the Kwifon society that they often see only from a distance.
The "Kibarangoh" made fruitless efforts to touch the Bishop's “holy feet” as it roll ed from the reception ground to the palace and back again. Curiously, other masqueraders on their part, almost made the sign of the cross.
