The Evangelical Church of Cameroon (EEC) and the Union of Christian Women (UFC) are currently at odds over the future of the Njo‑Njo home, a facility that has been part of the UFC’s community work for six decades.

The Njo‑Njo home has served as a centre for women’s activities and support since its establishment 60 years ago, becoming a symbol of the UFC’s long‑standing presence in the region.

According to reports, the EEC’s leadership has proposed a new vision for the property that could involve its demolition, sparking concern among UFC members who see the site as a vital part of their heritage.

UFC representatives have voiced a desire to preserve the building’s historical significance, arguing that it should remain a place of community service rather than be replaced or repurposed.

The disagreement highlights broader tensions between church authorities and women’s organisations over property use and the protection of cultural landmarks within Cameroon’s religious landscape.
