From the album Past Present Future, released in 2011, “Elolombe” means “dove” (colombe) in Duala language, and refers to the bird that symbolises peace.
“A forward-in-all-directions effort from the masterly Manu Dibango, who at 78 is still committed to trying out new ideas, still experimenting and collaborating on what happens to be his thirtieth album. […]

Encyclopedie d’Assiko – Olivier Declovis Bonga
https://amf.didiermary.fr/encyclopedie-assiko-olivier-declovis-bonga/
Olivier Declovis Bonga live with dancers (athletes?) at the Festival of Traditional Music & Dance in Limbe, Cameroon.
I met Olivier the last time I was in Douala. Now that Jean Bikoko Aladin is gone, he’s the new King of Assiko.
This is traditional music and dance from the Douala region, from the Bassa people.
The Trump administration gave notice in the Federal Register on Wednesday that it is withdrawing Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Cameroonians in the United States, effective Aug. 4. That could mean deportation for thousands of Texas residents.

“It's meee!”
For the children of the leper colony visitors are few. This small village on the outskirts of the small town of Mbé in North Cameroon is a safe haven for former leper patients.
As a show of support fighting the stigma hitting people treated and cured of leprosy are unclean and 2nd class fellow humans, our travel group visited the isolated small village.
We were warmly welcomed and showed around, and photographs were taken. Modern digital cameras with screens showing the results immediately were a popular novelty.
It was the Norwegian doctor and scientist Gerhard A. Hansen that identified the origin of leprosy and developed the first modern treatment. Modern medicine can effectively eradicate this 4000-year-old curse to humanity, but there are still some regions of the world where it exists in the wild.
This colony got a few new patients from the surrounding region every year. After treatment and cure, many former patients are not welcomed back to their former villages. They stay in this small village, where they get health follow ups and can do some farming and home handicraft for sale.
The children attend school in the village.

A young lady and her chick
Or a chic chick with a chick, if you like.
The open market in the small town of Gadjiwan, Cameroon, is the largest in the area. It is under 50 kilometres to the Nigerian border. People come from far and wide to trade.
And of course, in the right age, to look for new friends.
Being foreigner in a market like this far off the tourist area means everybody knew we were visiting. The fact that we had a trail of children different ages following us around made it even more difficult to blend in.
This lady had a younger brother in our ad-hoc entourage, and he was obviously very proud of her. So, he took me over to her trading spot, urging me to take a photo. She would not let a photo op get in the way of her trading chicken.
And that suited me fine.
The young brother had all reason to be proud, I would say.
