  • From Migrants to Nationals, from Nationals To
    International Journal of Latest Engineering and Management Research (IJLEMR) ISSN: 2455-4847 www.ijlemr.com || Volume 03 - Issue 06 || June 2018 || PP. 10-19 From Nomads to Nationals, From Nationals to Undesirable Elements: The Case of the Mbororo/Fulani in North West Cameroon 1916-2008 A Historical Investigation Jabiru Muhammadou Amadou (Phd) Higher Teacher Training College Department of History The University of Yaounde 1 Abstract: The Fulani (Mbororo) are a minority group perceived as migrants and strangers by local North West groups who consider themselves their hosts and landlords. They are predominantly nomadic people located almost exclusively within the savannah zone of West and Central Africa. Their original homeland is said to be the Senegambia region. From Senegal, the Fulani continued their movement along side their cattle and headed to Northern Nigeria. Uthman Dan Fodio‟s 19th century jihad movement and epidemic outbreaks force them to move from Northern Nigeria to Northern Cameroon. From Northern Cameroon they moved down South and started penetrating the North West Region in the early 20th century. This article critically examines and considers the case of the Fulani in the North West Region of Cameroon and their recent claims to regional citizenship and minority status. The paper begins by presenting the migration, settlement and ultimate acquisition of the status of nationals by the nomadic cattle Fulani in North West Cameroon. It also analysis the difficulties encountered by this nomadic group to fully integrate themselves into the region. In the early 20th century (more precisely 1916) when they arrived the North West Region, they were warmly received by their hosts.

  • Masculinity and Female Resistance in the Rice Economy in Meteh/Menchum Valley Bu, North West Cameroon, 1953 – 2005
    Journal of Sustainable Development in Africa (Volume 15, No.7, 2013) ISSN: 1520-5509 Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Clarion, Pennsylvania MASCULINITY AND FEMALE RESISTANCE IN THE RICE ECONOMY IN METEH/MENCHUM VALLEY BU, NORTH WEST CAMEROON, 1953 – 2005 Henry Kam Kah University of Buea, Cameroon ABSTRACT Male chauvinism and female reaction in the rice economy in Bu, Menchum Division of North West Cameroon is the subject of this investigation. The greater focus of this paper is how and why this phobia has lessened over the years in favour of female dominion over the rice economy. The point d’appui of the masculine management of the economy and the accentuating forces which have militated against their continuous domination of women in the rice sector have been probed into. Incongruous with the situation hitherto, women have farms of their own bought with their own money accumulated from other economic activities. In addition, they now employ the services of men to execute some defined tasks in the rice economy. From the copious data consulted on the rice economy and related economic endeavours, it is a truism that be it collectively and/or individually, men and women in Bu are responding willingly or not, to the changing power relations between them in the rice economy with implications for sustainable development. Keywords: Masculinity, Female Resistance, Rice Economy, Cameroon, Sustainability 115 INTRODUCTION: RELEVANCE OF STUDY AND CONCEPT OF MASCULINITY Rice is a staple food crop in Cameroon like elsewhere in Africa and other parts of the world. It has become increasingly important part of African diets especially West Africa and where local production has been insufficient due to limited access to credit (Akinbode, 2013, p.
