The President of the Christian Men Fellowship (CMF) in the Molyko congregation of the PCC died Friday, July 17, 2020, in Buea following an illness.

Born on June 15, 1970, in Mamfe, the late Ayuk was junior brother to the jailed leader of the putative state of Ambazonia, Sisiku Julius Ayuk Tabe.

The diseased attended Government Bilingual High School, GHS, Mamfe, and later enrolled in the Higher Teacher Training College (Ecole Normale Supérieure, ENS) Bambili from where he graduated with the Secondary School Teachers' Diploma Grade I ( DIPES I ).

He taught Mathematics in Secondary Schools for several years. He was a former Regional Controller for the Execution of Public Contracts for the South West at the Ministry of Public Contracts.

Ayuk Richard Mbui is remembered for being a devoted member of the Christian Men Fellowship of the PCC. He rose to occupy several positions within the movement including evangelism secretary and president.

It was during Ayuk’s first mandate as president that CMF Molyko celebrated her 20th anniversary on Sunday, September 28, 2014, in the presence of the Very Rev. Festus Ambe Asana, PCC Moderator at the time. He got a fresh five-year mandate to pilot the affairs of CMF Molyko on Thursday, April 25, 2019.

Christian faithful, friends, and well-wishers have been trooping into his Mile 16 Buea residence to console his family.

“Good night my brother, we all witnessed how you fought to live but God has the final say. Farewell, my dear brother and president of CMF Molyko. May your soul find eternal rest in God’s bosom,” said Dr. Kennedy Nyongbela, Evangelism Secretary International for CMF Molyko.

Members of CMF Molyko who are inconsolable say the late Ayuk fought a good fight. Dr. Halleson Sone says the diseased was a man of faith. “I saw courage and a determined faith as you fought with your health challenges these past years. It made my courage equally grow. But I thought Yahweh could have treated you like King Hezekiah but it turned the other way as He wanted you to come and have a deserved rest. You champion the course of teamwork and transformational leadership. This is what I will remember of you and how we worked to take CMF Molyko to higher heights. Farewell, president and brother.”
