In Pomp and fanfare, the solemn ceremony which entailed the presentation of the new Fon to the Administration for his official recognition and enthronment, was preceded by the mourning of the missing Fon, ritual rites performance and celebrations by high priest of the village and Kingmakers.

At the brief mix symbolic ritual rites enthronment ceremony, authorities took rounds and dwelled mostly on words of encouragement to the New Fon and appealed on the maximum collaboration of the population to aid him accomplish his tedious task as Fon at a very tender age. 

The SDO for Mezam Moh Emile on his part, as personal representative of the Head of State and the direct representative of the recognizing Ministry MINAT in Cameroon, at the pronouncement of the new Fon's appellation "Fon Forchiesiri the III", it was welcomed with great acclamation and ululations meaning the villagers were in total consonance with the choice of Fon and naming.
