Hausa/Fulani People of Kamerun

Hausa/Fulani People of Kamerun This page is a Media Voice of the indigenous Hausa & Fulani People of Cameroon's NW/SW regions and more.

This page was created to showcase, talk about and represent the minority Hausa & Fulani people of the Southern Cameroon(UN trust territory called "British Southern Cameroons"). The Hausa-Fulani people of this region of Cameroon - who are English-speaking by regional demarcation, have been poorly represented and recognized all over the Country, with some people even assuming that they(the English-speaking Hausa-Fulani) are strangers/foreigners from either Nigeria or the Grand North region of Cameroon. This assertion is a lie, and a deliberate manipulation of Historical facts by enemies of the Hausa/Fulani people, to serve their domination political agenda. The Hausa-Fulani People of Southern Cameroons are aboriginal to this region since time immemorial. The main reason why they seem to be a minority, is because part of their Brothers whom used to be part of the UN trust territory(British Northern Cameroon) joined Nigeria through a plebiscite in 1958-59. That made the Hausa-Fulani from the British Southern Cameroons seem now like a minority and since the northern part has been lost to Nigeria, people assumed that all other Hausa-Fulani are of the Northern part - which is wrong. The English-speaking Hausa-Fulani people of Cameroon originated from these lands known today as Southwest & Northwest regions of Cameroon! They, just as all other ethnic compartments settled in these lands since the days of Population Movement(Migration) in the 19th century.

The Hausa & Fulani in English-Speaking Cameroon: A Historical Snapshot

From bustling trade routes to pastoral lands, the Hausa and Fulani peoples have long shaped the cultural and economic landscape of Anglophone Cameroon.

Hausa traders arrived in the Grassfields by the late 19th century, establishing small settlements and trading networks that connected local communities to the wider Sahel and West Africa, even though Hausa traders had toured nearly all of west Africa before colonization. Meanwhile, Fulani pastoralists, including the semi-nomadic Mbororo, moved across grazing lands, contributing to the region’s dynamic agricultural and social life.

Understanding these dynamics reminds us that Cameroon’s social tapestry is woven from centuries of migration, trade, and adaptation, highlighting both coexistence and the complexities of shared space.

Les Haoussa et les Peuls dans le Cameroun anglophone : Un aperçu historique

Des routes commerciales animées aux pâturages, les Haoussa et les Peuls ont longtemps façonné le paysage culturel et économique du Cameroun anglophone.

Les Haoussa commerçants sont arrivés dans les Grassfields à la fin du XIXe siècle, créant des petites colonies et des réseaux commerciaux reliant les communautés locales au Sahel et à l’Afrique de l’Ouest. Parallèlement, les Peuls pasteurs, y compris les semi-nomades Mbororo, parcouraient les pâturages, contribuant à la vie sociale et agricole dynamique de la région.

Comprendre ces dynamiques nous rappelle que la mosaïque sociale du Cameroun est tissée par des siècles de migrations, de commerce et d’adaptations, soulignant à la fois la coexistence et la complexité du partage de l’espace.

⚠️ Viewers Discretion is Advised ⚠️

Amba terr0rists have massacred our people - mostly Women and Children in Ntumbaw breaking today.

Innocent people who have committed no crimes, nor hurt anyone have had their lives mercilessly ended by cruel terr0rists under the watch of elites and government institutions in charge of the defence and security of Cameroonians.

May Allah forgive them, and accept their martyrdom. Ameen

Are you waiting for them to entirely ethnically cleanse us before you take action? Or Must we pickup arms to defend ourselves before you open your eyes? 🤔😏

It's been 10-years today, our people are being slaughtered by the same terr0rists and very little have been done to stop these terrorists nor to assure the sustainable security of our people. Why is it different when it's us? One law for us and another for others?

RIP 🕯️

village . At around 5AM today 14 Jan 2026, Ambazonia terrorist attacked civilians and murdered at least 12 Mbororos people at Gidado. They murdered children as young as 5 years old. Dozens others have been injured.
Meanwhile the military and security around these areas have done VERY LITTLE to help secure these communities from these attacks.

This Alert goes directly to The D.O of Ndu, (Mr Ibrahim), The SDO of Donga, THE MP and Senator for this constituency, The Governor of North West Region, Mr. Lele L'Afrique, The Gendarmerie, General Bouba (Commander of the 5th Military region in Bamenda). It is very clear that these predictable and yet recurrent attacks against the Mbororo Communities in Ndu is either Gross Failures of Cameroon institutions, or Gross Negligence.

*These Mbororo communities NEED URGENT HELP.*

as a whole has failed these Mbororo communities who have been targeted and murdered systematically for over 8 years with no end in sight, because authorities just ignore their pain and suffering. What are we doing to help these people from being wiped out? What will be the response from the Cameroon Government?

This is Heart Breaking. We are watching and waiting. Someone, PLEASE HELP! Do your jobs.. Provide security for these communities.. GO AFTER THE AMBA TERRORISRS AND WIPE THEM OUT. Please. Do something. For the love of humanity. DO SOMETHING.

Dear Mbororo / Fulani youths, sell those cattle and ar*m yourselves. Stop waiting on the government to come defend us. DEFEND YOURSELVES. No one masters the forests and hills of the Northwest better than us. We know every nook and cranny, every amba hideout from the hills of sabga to the plains of mambila. Find those bast@rds and give them a dose of their own medicine. This has got to end.
