INTRODUCTION The Dibamba Power Project will involve the construction of an 86MW power plant fuelled with Heavy Fuel Oil and the erection of a 90kV transmission line. The project will entail some displacement of local livelihoods through land acquisition and as such a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) has been prepared Loss of assets as a result of the project has been minimised as far as practicable and is limited to the following: • 11 plots of land with land title and without structures. • Three plots of land with land title applications in process with no structures affected. • 54 plots of farmland: 34 on the site itself and 22 along the transmission line1, farmed by 47 farm households (approximately 250 people). With the exception of the Yassa Chief, farmers either rent or borrow the land they farm from landowners or use Government land freely and therefore do not hold title. All resettlement is ‘economic’ rather than ‘physical (i.e. displacement will involve loss of people’s productive assets – in this case farmland and crops – with no requirement for people to move home). AES Sonel made compensation payments to Project Affected Peoples (PAPs) for lost crops in January 2008 according to a crop census survey conducted by Compensation Evaluation Commission (CEC) and market price surveys conducted by Scott Wilson in December 2007 and January 2008. Compensation payments for land will be made through negotiated settlements with individual owners and according to maximum prevailing market land values in the Yassa area with an additional amount to be paid as resettlement assistance. 2. LEGAL AND POLICY FRAMEWORK This RAP is prepared according to IFC PS5 and in light of the AES Sonel Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) which provides guidelines to be followed when land acquisition involving resettlement is associated with any of the corporation’s projects. The RPF itself complies with both relevant Cameroonian laws and IFC PS5 and seeks to bridge gaps between the two. Under the RPF, in line with IFC PS5, “resettlement and compensation plans must include measures to ensure that displaced persons are: • Informed about their options and rights pertaining to resettlement and compensation; • Consulted on, offered choices/options, and provided with technically and economically feasible resettlement and compensation alternatives; • Provided with prompt and effective compensation at full replacement cost for losses of assets and access, attributable to the project; and 1 All of these farm on Government land. May 2008 ES-1 Scott Wilson Dibamba Power Project, Cameroon Final Report Resettlement Action Plan Executive Summary • Provided opportunities to improve or at least restore their livelihoods and standards of living.” 3. SOCIOECONOMIC SURVEYS AND BASELINE The socio-economic research for the Dibamba RAP was conducted in four stages: (i) Household questionnaire. (ii) PAP census, asset inventory and compensation survey. (iii) Focus group discussions with PAPs. (iv) Meetings with key (non-PAP) stakeholders. The socioeconomic research informed the development of socioeconomic baseline information and income restoration measures under this RAP. Key findings from the socioeconomic research included the following: • The affected population has a high proportion of female-headed households (30%). • The affected population is relatively old (34% under 15 years of age compared with 41% nationally in 2005). • There are a number of religious minorities (non-Catholic) amongst the affected population, including Muslims (6%). • There are a number of linguistic and ethnic minority groups amongst the Project Affected Households (PAHs). • A significant number of PAHs do not reside locally (40%). • 7% of the affected population have received no formal education, all women. • There are high incidences of malaria and diarrhea amongst the affected population. • Farming is an important livelihood activity for most PAHs. Animal husbandry is widely practiced. Some PAPs engage in small agribusiness. • 79% of PAHs have incomes under CFA 75,000 ($165) per month. • 79% of all people did not have a bank account at the time of the survey. • Yassa Village has poor drinking water provision. • A large number of PAPs spend a lot of their leisure time in church activities. • People were generally satisfied with the amount of crop compensation paid. • Some women would have welcomed payment of compensation in instalments. • Some PAPs felt that compensation should have been land-based. • Some PAPs would like assistance from AES Sonel in securing new land. May 2008 ES-2 Scott Wilson Dibamba Power Project, Cameroon Final Report Resettlement Action Plan Executive Summary • Some PAPs were concerned about urgent demands on their compensation money – e.g. for school fees, healthcare, debt service and additional travel costs to new fields. • Some women were concerned about increased workloads and travel (e.g. to new fields) for women and children following resettlement. • Many PAPs are interested to improve their farming skills and knowledge. • Many PAPs are interested to invest in livestock and agribusiness (e.g. palm-oil production) given reductions in available farmland. • Many PAPs would welcome employment and skills training by AES Sonel. • Several agricultural extension/training providers operate locally (Government, NGOs). Key stakeholders interviewed included the local Yassa Traditional Chief; the Chief of Section for the Agricultural Development of Wouri; and a Douala Diocesan representative for CODASC. Views and comments from these people included: • A development approach should be taken in resettlement involving partnership with different organisations (i.e. AES Sonel, Government, NGOs). • Extension support should be provided by organisations that are familiar with the local area, are well established, and are viewed positively by local people. 4. SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACTS AND MITIGATION MEASURES Socioeconomic impacts are in limited to losses of the following: • Farmland with valid title (and valid title applications). • Sole-owned standing crops and trees. • Share-owned standing crops. Compensation entitlements in relation to these losses under this RAP include the following: • For farmland with valid title (and valid title applications) cash compensation will be paid for whole area of land to be acquired at rate of CFA7,000/m² (ie, at least CFA 1,000 above current average market price). In addition, CFA 1,000/m² will be provided to land owners as resettlement assistance. • For sole-owned standing crops cash compensation has been paid based on two seasons’ production at current retail market prices (in AES Sonel Kribi Power Project RAP, 2007), current yields and replacement seed. For sole-owned trees cash compensation has been paid based on type of tree, loss of production (assuming full maturity), market price of crop, number of years required to reach maturity and price of seedlings. • For share-owned crops cash compensation will be paid on the same basis as for sole- owned crops, distributed equitably amongst individual members in facilitated discussions with these members.

  • Rivers and Ports in Transport History of Cameroon, 1916-1961
    RIVERS AND PORTS IN TRANSPORT HISTORY OF CAMEROON, 1916-1961 Walter Gam Nkwi* http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/og.v13i 1.11 Abstract In direct contrast to Europe, Asia and North America, Africa has very few navigable rivers. This paper focuses on the preponderant role played by water transport in the form of rivers and ports during the colonial period. Although not blessed with much navigable rivers and natural deep ports, the Colonial administration as well as the population of Cameroon depended so much on rivers and ports for their physical mobility, transportation of bulky goods, mails migration and above all European consumer goods which came in from Europe and were head loaded into the hinterlands. Therefore rivers and ports played economic, social and political roles. Despite these important roles, the place of rivers and ports has been relegated to footnotes in historical narratives of Cameroon. This paper therefore, aims at lifting rivers and ports from the footnotes of Cameroon history into the text. It confronts the importance of such a technological system to both the colonial administration and the indigenous population. What were the type of goods that were transported via rivers and ports? More crucial to the essay is the importance of the ports in the development of the cities and the migration of people into areas where ports were found. In what ways do we linked the ports and rivers to the global mobility of goods and modernity? Introduction In Africa and the world over, water transport had been very crucial for the movements of goods and people.

  • Honor, Violence, Resistance and Conscription in Colonial Cameroon During the First World War
    Soldiers of their Own: Honor, Violence, Resistance and Conscription in Colonial Cameroon during the First World War by George Ndakwena Njung A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Rudolph (Butch) Ware III, Chair Professor Joshua Cole Associate Professor Michelle R. Moyd, Indiana University Professor Martin Murray © George Ndakwena Njung 2016 Dedication My mom, Fientih Kuoh, who never went to school; My wife, Esther; My kids, Kelsy, Michelle and George Jr. ii Acknowledgments When in the fall of 2011 I started the doctoral program in history at Michigan, I had a personal commitment and determination to finish in five years. I wanted to accomplish in reality a dream that began since 1995 when I first set foot in a university classroom for my undergraduate studies. I have met and interacted with many people along this journey, and without the support and collaboration of these individuals, my dream would be in abeyance. Of course, I can write ten pages here and still not be able to acknowledge all those individuals who are an integral part of my success story. But, the disservice of trying to acknowledge everybody and end up omitting some names is greater than the one of electing to acknowledge only a few by name. Those whose names are omitted must forgive my short memory and parsimony with words and names. To begin with, Professors Emmanuel Konde, Nicodemus Awasom, Drs Canute Ngwa, Mbu Ettangondop (deceased), wrote me outstanding references for my Ph.D.
