This fecal sludge treatment plant will be officially opened on September 22, 2021 by Luc Atangana Messi, the Mayor of Yaoundé. Funded by the Agence française de développement (AFD) and the Association Internationale des Maires Francophones (AIMF) to the tune 2.6 billion, the first fecal sludge treatment plant will be officially inaugurated on 22 September 2021 by Luc Messi Atangana.

The infrastructure is located in Etoa, an eastern suburb about 20 kilometers from downtown Yaoundé, the political capital and headquarters of Cameroon's institutions. It should be noted that the project today was launched in 2018 when Gilbert TsimiEvouna was government delegate to the Communauté urbaine de Yaoundé(Cuy).

Implemented within the framework of the second phase of the Yaoundé Sanitation Project (PADY II), the sewage sludge treatment plant will solve the population' s health problems caused by the pollution of Yaoundé's drains into the Mfoundi, Mefou and Nyong rivers..

With this innovation, the City Hall intends to reduce or even eliminate the diseases caused by this wastewater, making the health of the inhabitants fragile.
