Enter Bamenda, Cameroon in Rain 22 Aug 2011
The rain was just pouring down as I drove down the mountain into Bamenda, Cameroon. This would be the kick-off for the difficult part onto muddy forest roads and this amount of rain didn't promise to make it any easier.

Cycle Touring - Cape2Cape - Cameroon
On our incredible bicycle touring adventure through Europe and Africa, we cycled through another beautiful country. After more than nine months in western Africa, we entered Cameroon and therefore the first county in Central Africa. We love to cycle in Africa and learn more about the culture, discover landscapes and meet local people. On the way to Cape Town, we pedaled through Cameroon and therefore our 27th country on this bicycle trip. From the border in the hilly north, we cycled on a holey road to Bafoussam where we turned in the direction of Yaoundé. On the journey to the capital, we were surround by thick forest again and we definitely left the mountainous landscapes and the coniferous forests behind us. On the way, we saw many times, like in previous countries that people dried their harvest on the road. We saw cacao beans, chili peppers, cassava roots and peanuts. After some rest days, we left the luxury again and cycled on the chaotic roads of Yaoundé, to leave the city. Shortly after leaving the capital, we already saw lush rainforest behind the villages and the region definitely got more rural. On the way to Gabon we got even a chance to witness a wedding. In total, we rode our bicycle more than 800 kilometers. Check out our experiences and enjoy this cycling video!
We are Adrian and Fabian from Switzerland and love adventures. In May 2018, we started our Cape to Cape cycling tour from Norway to South Africa. The project name originated from the exact starting point, which was the North Cape in Norway and our destination Cape Town in South Africa. On the way we will cross two continents, more than 30 countries and master over 30'000 km. To connect the two capes with the bicycle, we plan to cycle for two years.

A Documentary Video about Bamenda City Cameroon vol2
Bamenda, also known as Abakwa, sprawling over the north-western plateau of Cameroon, is the capital city of the North West Region. It is situated 366 km north-west of the administrative capital of Cameroon, Yaounde, and about 450 km of Cameroon's economic capital, Douala. Known for its cool climate and scenic hilly location, Bamenda is all about a city and a people whose commitment to self-reliance sets the pace in individual and collective development. Because of a common and shared history, hospitality is a legendary asset of the people of Bamenda, principally constituted today of the seven villages of Mankon, Nkwen, Mendankwe, Mbatu, Chomba, Njah and Nsongwa -- a veritable socio-cultural melting pot.
Cameroon Northwest region : Heavy precipitations cause river Momo to Flood, Landslide blocks roads
The Northwest Region, or North-West Region (French: Région du Nord-Ouest) is one of ten regions in Cameroon. Its regional capital is Bamenda. The Northwest Region is part of the Southern Cameroons, found in the western highlands of Cameroon. It is bordered to the southwest by the Southwest Region, to the south by the West Region, to the east by the Adamawa Region, and to the north by Nigeria. Various Ambazonian nationalist and separatist factions regard the region as being distinct as a polity from Cameroon.
In 1919, the Northwest Region became solely administered by the British Empire. In 1961, the region joined the Cameroon. Separatists from the Ambazonia administration regard both the Nord-Ouest (Northwest) and Sud-Ouest (Southwest) regions as being constituent components of their envisaged breakaway state.
Administration
The Northwest Region (known before 2008 as the Northwest Province) is the third most populated province in Cameroon. It has one major metropolitan city, Bamenda, with several other smaller towns such as Wum, Kumbo, Mbengwi, Ndop, Nkambé, Batibo, Bambui and Oshie. The province saw an increase in its population from approximately 1.2 million in 1987 to 1.8 million in 2010.[6] The population density of 99.12 people per square kilometer is higher than the national average of 22.6. The provincial urban growth rate is 7.95%, higher than the national average of 5.6%, while the rural growth rate, at 1.16%, is equal to the national rate. In 2001, according to the Statistical Provincial Services of the North-West Province, the population of the province is young, with over 62% of its residents being less than 20 years old. Therefore, the dependency rate in the province is high, particularly in the rural areas.
Like other regions in Cameroon, the Northwest Region is made up of administrative divisions. The province was created in 1972 with five divisions or departments: Bui, Donga-Mantung, Menchum, Mezam, and Momo. Today, it has seven divisions, the additions being Boyo, which was carved out of the Menchum division, and Ngo-Ketunjia or Ngoketunjia, split off from the Mezam division. Each division is further subdivided, with thirty-one total subdivisions in the Northwest Province. The basic unit of local government is the council, and there are thirty-two councils in the region.
Politics
The Northwest is a stronghold of the Social Democratic Front (SDF) which is one of the main opposition parties of Cameroon. Some Northwesterners feel completely marginalized by the government. There is also a secessionist movement, the SCNC (Southern Cameroon's National Council) whose goal is to secede from Cameroon and form a republic consisting of the English-speaking regions.[clarification needed] Much of the SCNC's influence exists in the Northwest. In 2008, the President of the Republic of Cameroon, Paul Biya, signed decrees abolishing Provinces and replacing them with Regions. The Northwest Province subsequently became the Northwest Region.
