  • I want to see hoses in town.
  • am from cameroon and i loved my country even though i dont live there anymore
  • Bamenda likeAbakwa is the most peaceful region in cameroon wit most of its villages beginning in letter B, as in bambili, bafut, bali, bambui, bambalang, babanki and many others
  • Bemnji, I heard that when the German delegation lead by Zingraft came to the area, they got their guide from Bali, and he added Ba to the beginnings of the names of most of the places in mezam division. That's why in Bali, Ba is dropped in most of those places, liked Bamendakwe is called Mendakwe, Bambili is called Mbili, Bambalang is called Mbalang, etc. It makes for an interesting tale, but I don't know how true it is.
