Charu ichi chili na mphaka na Nigeria kumanjiliro gha dazi na kumpoto, Chad kumpoto kwa kumafumiro gha dazi, Central African Republic kumafumiro gha dazi, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon na Republic of Congo kumwera. Mphepete mwa nyanja iyi pali nyanja ya Biafra, iyo yili mu nyanja ya Atlantic na Gulf of Guinea. Cifukwa ca malo ghake ghakutowa agho ghali pa mphambano pakati pa vyaru vya kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Africa na vya pakati pa Africa, ŵanthu ŵakughanaghana kuti charu ichi chili ku vigaŵa vyose viŵiri. Ŵanthu pafupifupi 27 miliyoni ŵakuyowoya viyowoyero vyakujumpha 250.Kouega, Jean-Paul. 'The Language Situation in Cameroon', Current Issues in Language Planning, vol. 8/no. 1, (2007), pp. 3–94.

Ŵanthu ŵakwambilira awo ŵakakhalanga mu chigaŵa ichi ŵakaŵa ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Sao awo ŵakakhalanga kufupi na Nyanja ya Chad, kweniso ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Baka awo ŵakakhalanga mu nkhorongo ya kumwera kwa charu ichi. Mu vyaka vya m'ma 1400, ŵanthu ŵa ku Portugal ŵakafika pa malo agha na kughathya Rio dos Camarões (Mlonga wa Shrimp). Ŵasilikari ŵa Fulani ŵakakhazikiska boma la Adamawa kumpoto kwa charu ichi mu ma 1800, ndipo mafuko ghakupambanapambana gha kumanjiliro gha dazi na kumpoto kwa charu ichi ghakakhazikiska vigaŵa vyawo. Mu 1884, charu cha Cameroon chikaŵa pasi pa Germany. Nkhondo Yakwamba ya Caru Cose yikati yamara, caru ici cikagaŵika pakati pa France na United Kingdom. Chipani cha Union des Populations du Cameroun (UPC) chikakhumbanga kuti charu ichi chiŵe na wanangwa, kweni mu ma 1950, charu cha France chikakanizga, ndipo ichi chikapangiska kuti ŵanthu ŵa ku France na UPC ŵambe kuwukira charu chawo m'paka mu 1971. Mu 1960, chigaŵa cha Cameroon icho chikaŵa pasi pa French chikamba kujiyimira paŵekha. Chigaŵa chakumwera cha British Cameroons chikakolerana na charu ichi mu 1961 ndipo chikazgoka Federal Republic of Cameroon. Wupu uwu ukamara mu 1972. Mu 1972, charu ichi chikachemekaso kuti United Republic of Cameroon, ndipo mu 1984 chikachemekaso kuti Republic of Cameroon. Paul Biya, uyo ni pulezidenti wa sono, ndiyo walaŵiliranga charu ichi kwamba mu 1982 pamanyuma pakuti Ahidjo wafumapo. Charu cha Cameroon chili na boma la pulezidenti.

Viyowoyero vya boma vya ku Cameroon ni Chifurenchi na Chingelezi. Ŵanthu ŵanandi awo ŵakukhala mu tawuni iyi Mbakhristu, ndipo ŵachoko waka ndiwo ŵakusopa Chisilamu. Chigaŵa ichi chili na ŵanthu awo ŵakuyowoya Chingelezi, awo ŵakukhumba kuti chigaŵa ichi chileke kuŵa na ŵanthu ŵanandi, kweniso kuti chipatukeko panji chiŵe na wanangwa (nga umo vikaŵira na South Cameroon National Council). Mu 2017, masuzgo agho ghakaŵapo chifukwa cha boma la Ambazonian mu vigaŵa ivyo ŵanthu ŵakuyowoya Chingelezi ghakafika paheni chomene.

Ŵanthu ŵanandi ku Cameroon ŵalimi. Kanandi ŵanthu ŵakuchema charu ichi kuti "Africa in miniature" chifukwa cha malo ghake ghakupambanapambana, viyowoyero, na mitheto.Highest Average Annual Precipitation Extremes.

Pakwamba, Ŵapwitikizi ŵakachemanga mlonga wa Wouri kuti Cameroon. Ŵakawuchemanga kuti Rio dos Camarões, kung'anamura "mulonga wa nkharamu".Cameroon (adj.) nation in West Africa, its name is taken from the Anglicized form of the former name of the River Wouri, which was called by the Portuguese Rio dos Camarões "river of prawns" (16c.) for the abundance of these they found in its broad estuary. camarões is from Latin cammarus "a crawfish, prawn." Mazuŵa ghano, charu ichi chikuchemeka Camarões mu Ciphwitikizi.

Charu icho sono chikuchemeka Cameroon, ŵanthu ŵakakhalanga mwenemumo mu nyengo ya Neolithic. Ŵanthu awo ŵakakhalanga mu charu ichi nyengo yitali chomene ni Baka (Pygmies). Ŵanthu ŵanyake ŵakugomezga kuti ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Bantu ŵakasamukira ku vigaŵa vya kumafumiro gha dazi, kumwera, na pakati pa Africa vyaka pafupifupi 2,000 ivyo vyajumpha. Ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Sao ŵakamba kukhala kufupi na Nyanja ya Chad, c. Mu 500 C.E., ufumu wa Kanem na ufumu unyake uwo ukamulondezganga ukababika. Maufumu, vyaru, na maufumu ghakawuka kumanjiliro gha dazi.

Mu 1472, ŵanthu ŵa ku Portugal ŵakafika pa dowoko ili. Ŵakawona kuti mu Mlonga wa Wouri mukaŵa shrimpu zinandi za mtundu wa Lepidophthalmus turneranus, ndipo ŵakazitcha kuti Rio dos Camarões. Mu vyaka vyakulondezgapo, ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe ŵakambiska malonda na ŵanthu ŵa mumphepete mwa nyanja.

Mu 1896, Sultani Ibrahim Njoya wakambiska ciyowoyero ca ciyowoyero ici. Mazuŵa ghano, mu Cameroon, ŵanthu ŵakusambira Baibolo ili kwizira mu pulojekiti ya Bamum Scripts and Archives.thumb|upright|Bamum script is a writing system developed by King Njoya in the late 19th century.

 Boma la Germany 

Mu 1868, kampani ya Woermann Company ya ku Hamburg yikazenga malo ghakusungiramo katundu. Wakazengeka pa mlonga wa Wouri. Nyengo yikati yajumphapo, Gustav Nachtigal wakacita phangano na yumoza wa mafumu gha mu cigaŵa ici kuti malo agha ghaŵe gha themba la Germany. Mu 1884, Ufumu wa Germany ukati charu ichi ntcha ku Cameroon ndipo ukamba kulimbana na ŵanthu ŵa mu charu ichi. Pa nyengo iyo boma la Germany likalamuliranga caru ici, maboma ghakawovwiranga makampani. Mu vyaru ivi ŵakagwiliskiranga ntchito ŵanthu awo ŵakaŵachichizganga kugwira ntchito mu minda ya banane, ghamayi, mafuta gha makuni, na koko. Nanga ni milimo ya kuzenga yikaŵa yakukhumbikwa. Boma linyake likasuska comene fundo iyi.DeLancey and DeLancey 125.

 Ufumu wa France na Britain 

Nkhondo Yakwamba ya Caru Cose yikati yamara, caru ca Cameroon cikaŵa pasi pa muwuso wa League of Nations ndipo cikagaŵika mu vyaru vya French Cameroon na British Cameroon mu 1919. Boma la France likawovwira kuti vinthu vyendenge makora mu Cameroon na kunozgaso vinthu vya mu charu ichi.

Ŵanandi ŵakakhalanga mu vigaŵa ivyo vikaŵa pafupi na Nigeria. Ŵanthu ŵa ku malo agha ŵakadandawura kuti ŵanthu ŵakaŵaleka waka. Ŵantchito ŵakufuma ku Nigeria ŵakiza ku Southern Cameroon, ndipo ŵakaŵakanizga kugwira nchito mwakucicizgika, kweni ŵakakwiyiska ŵanthu ŵa mu caru ici, awo ŵakajiwonanga nga ŵalije nchito.DeLancey and DeLancey 4. Mu 1946, mawupu gha League of Nations ghakazgoka United Nations Trusteeships, ndipo nkhani ya kujiyimira payekha yikaŵa yakuzirwa chomene mu France.

Pa Julayi 13, 1955, boma la France likakanizga chipani cha Union des Populations du Cameroun (UPC). Ivi vikapangiska kuti UPC yambe nkhondo ya ŵasilikari na kukoma ŵalongozgi ŵanandi ŵa chipani ichi, kusazgapo Ruben Um Nyobè, Félix-Roland Moumié na Ernest Ouandie. Mu vyaru vya Britain ivyo vikachemekanga Cameroon, ŵanthu ŵakakhumbanga kumanya usange ŵanganjilirapo mu vyaru vya France panji ku Nigeria.

Kujilamulila

Pa Janyuwale 1, 1960, charu cha French Cameroon chikamba kujiyimira paŵekha. Pa Okutobala 1, 1961, vyaru ivyo kale vikachemekanga British Southern Cameroons, vikajiyimira pavyake kufuma ku United Kingdom. Ahidjo wakagwiliskira nchito nkhondo iyo yikaŵa pakati pa iyo na UPC kuti wakhozge mazaza ghake, ndipo wakalutilira kucita nthena nanga ni apo UPC yikaparanyika mu 1971.

Chipani chake cha ndale, cha Cameroon National Union (CNU), chikaŵa chipani chimoza pera pa 1 Seputembala 1966 ndipo pa 20 Meyi 1972, chikaŵa na referendum yakuwuskapo boma la feduro na kwendera boma la United Republic of Cameroon. Zuŵa ili ni Zuŵa la Charu. Ahidjo wakendeskanga ndyali ya vyamalonda, ndipo wakadangizganga vyakurya vya ndalama na mafuta. Boma likagwiliskira nchito ndalama za mafuta kuti lipangire ndalama zakwendeskera vinthu, kulipira ŵalimi, na kupeleka ndalama zakwendeskera vinthu vikuruvikuru. Kweni vinthu vinandi vikenda makora yayi apo Ahidjo wakasankha ŵanthu ŵambura kuzomerezgeka kuti ŵaŵalongozge.DeLancey and DeLancey 7.

Mbendera ya caru yikasinthika pa 20 Meyi 1975. Ŵakawuskamo nyenyezi ziŵiri na kuŵikamo yinyake yikuru iyo yikwimira kukolerana.

Ahidjo wakafumapo pa udindo wake pa Novembala 4, 1982 ndipo wakapeleka mazaza kwa Paul Biya. Ndipouli, Ahidjo wakalutilira kuwusa CNU ndipo wakayezga kuwusa caru kufuma kumasinda mpaka apo Biya na ŵabwezi ŵake ŵakamucicizga kuti waleke. Biya wakamba kuwusa na boma la demokalase, kweni boma likati latondekapo, wakayamba kulongozga nga umo wakacitiranga mulara wake.

Mu vyaka vya m'ma 1980 m'paka m'ma 1990, kukaŵa suzgo la vyachuma chifukwa cha suzgo la vyachuma pa charu chose, chilangalanga, kukhira kwa mafuta, na vimbundi, kusuzgika na ŵabwezi. Cameroon wakathemba wovwiri wa vyaru vinyake, wakadumulizga ndalama za boma, na kupanga makampani ghanyake. Mu Disembala 1990, apo boma la Britain likambaso kwambiska vyaru vinandi, ŵanthu ŵa ku Southern Cameroons ŵakakhumbanga kuti charu ichi chiŵe na wanangwa wa kujilongozga. Dango la Ntchito la 1992 mu Cameroon likupeleka wanangwa ku ŵantchito wa kuŵa mu wupu wa ŵantchito panji kuleka kuŵa mu wupu uliwose. Wantchito wakusankha kunjira wupu uliwose wa ŵantchito mu nchito yake cifukwa pali wupu unyake wa ŵantchito mu nchito yiliyose.Ginna Violet Yella.

Mu Juni 2006, ŵakamazga mphindano za chigaŵa cha Bakassi. Pa ungano uwu pakaŵa Pulezidenti Paul Biya wa ku Cameroon, kweniso Pulezidenti Olusegun Obasanjo wa ku Nigeria na Secretary General wa UN Kofi Annan. Chigaŵa chakumpoto cha chigaŵa ichi chikapelekeka ku boma la Cameroon mu Ogasiti 2006, ndipo chigaŵa chinyake chikapelekeka ku Cameroon mu 2008. Ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵa ku Bakassi ŵakakana kuzomerezga boma la Cameroon. Nangauli ŵasilikari ŵanandi ŵakaleka nkhondo mu Novembala 2009, kweni ŵanyake ŵakalutilira kurwa nkhondo kwa vyaka vinandi.

Mu Febuluwale 2008, ku Cameroon kukacitika vivulupi vikuru comene mu vyaka 15, apo gulu la ŵanthu awo ŵakasuzgikanga na vigeŵenga ku Douala, likakura na kuŵa vigeŵenga mu matawuni 31.

Mu Meyi 2014, pamanyuma pa kukomeka kwa ŵasungwana ŵa sukulu ŵa Chibok, pulezidenti Paul Biya wa ku Cameroon na Idriss Déby wa ku Chad ŵakapharazga kuti ŵakurwa nkhondo na Boko Haram, ndipo ŵakatuma ŵasilikari ku mphaka ya Nigeria. Gulu la Boko Haram likawukira ku Cameroon kanandi waka, ndipo mu Disembala 2014, likakoma ŵanthu 84, kweni likathereskeka chomene mu Janyuwale 2015. Cameroon yalengeza kupambana pa Boko Haram pa gawo la Cameroon mu Seputembala 2018.Boko Haram has been repelled, Cameroon's leader declares, CBC News, 30 September 2018. Accessed 18 June 2019.

Kwambira mu Novembala 2016, ŵanthu ŵakuyowoya Chingelezi ŵakufuma ku vigaŵa vya kumpoto na kumwera kwa charu ichi ŵakuchitiska kampeni kuti chiyowoyero cha Chingelezi chikalutilire kugwiliskirika ntchito mu masukulu na makhoti. Ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakakomeka ndipo ŵanyake ŵakajalirika mu jele. Mu 2017, boma la Biya likakanizga ŵanthu kuchezga pa Intaneti kwa myezi yitatu. Mu Seputembala, ŵanthu ŵakugaluka ŵakamba nkhondo ya kuwukira boma kuti chigaŵa ichi chiŵe na wanangwa wakuyowoya Chingelezi. Boma likamba kuwukira boma, ndipo ŵanthu ŵakamba kuwukira mu vigaŵa vya kumpoto na kumwera kwa charu ichi. Kufumira mu 2019, nkhondo pakati pa ŵasilikari na ŵasilikari ŵa boma zikulutilira. Mu chaka cha 2020, ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakakomeka chifukwa cha vigeŵenga, ndipo boma likapeleka ndalama yayi. Kwambira mu 2016, ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 450,000 ŵachimbira mu vikaya vyawo. Nkhondo iyi yikapangiska kuti ŵanthu ŵa Boko Haram ŵambeso kuwukira charu cha Cameroon.

Ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 30,000 ŵa kumpoto kwa Cameroon ŵakachimbilira ku Chad pamanyuma pa kulimbana kwa mafuko pa nkhani ya maji pakati pa ŵalovi ŵa Musgum na ŵaliska ŵa mafuko gha Arab Choa mu Disembala 2021.

Ndale na boma

Pulezidenti wa charu cha Cameroon ndiyo wakusankhika na kupanga ndondomeko, wakulongozga maboma, wakulongozga ŵasilikari, wakuchita vyamalango, ndipo wakuŵikapo mtima kuti vinthu viŵe makora. Pulezidenti wakwimika ŵalara ŵa boma pa vigaŵa vyose, kwambira pa nduna yikuru (iyo yikuwoneka nga ni mulongozgi wa boma), m'paka ku ŵalongozgi ŵa vigaŵa na ŵalara ŵa vigaŵa. Pa vilimika vinkhondi na viŵiri vilivyose, pulezidenti wakusankhika na ŵanthu. Kufuma apo charu cha Cameroon chikapokera wanangwa, pakaŵa ŵalongozgi ŵaŵiri.

Nyumba ya Malango ndiyo yikupanga malango. Wupu uwu uli na mamembara 180, ndipo ŵakusankhika kwa vyaka vinkhondi.Malango ghakupokeka na ŵanthu ŵanandi.Ndondomeko ya malango ya mu 1996 yikupanga nyumba yachiŵiri ya boma, iyo ni Senate. Boma likuzomerezga mazaza gha ŵalongozgi ŵa ndyali, fons, na lamibe kuti ŵachitenge vinthu pa malo agha na kumazga mphindano usange malango agha ghakususkana yayi na malango gha charu.

Boma la Cameroon lili na malango gha boma, malango gha ŵanthu wose, na malango gha mitheto. Nangauli boma likujiyimira palekha, kweni boma la ŵeruzgi likulamulirika na Unduna wa vya Malango. Pulezidenti wakusora ŵeruzgi pa vigaŵa vyose. Ŵeruzgi ŵali kugaŵika mu makhoti ghaŵiri, khoti la apilu, na khoti likuru. Khoti Likuru la Vyamalango ilo lili na ŵanthu 9, likuŵa na ŵeruzgi awo ŵakweruzga ŵalaraŵalara ŵa boma para ŵapika mulandu wa kugalukira boma.

Political culture
Ŵanthu ŵanandi ku Cameroon ŵakuwona kuti vimbundi vili pa vigaŵa vyose vya boma. Mu 1997, charu cha Cameroon chikakhazikiska maofesi ghakwimikana na vimbundi mu maofesi 29, kweni 25 pera pa maofesi agha ndigho ghakamba kugwira ntchito, ndipo mu 2012, wupu wa Transparency International ukaŵika charu cha Cameroon pa nambara 144 pa maofesi 176 pa charu chose. Pa 18 January 2006, Biya wakambiska kampeni yakwimikana na vimbundi pasi pa ulongozgi wa National Anti-Corruption Observatory. Ku Cameroon kuli vigaŵa vinandi ivyo vingaŵa na vimbundi, nga ni misika, vyakupwelelera umoyo wa ŵanthu, na vyakupeleka vya boma. Ndipouli, vimbundi vyafika paheni chomene, nangauli pali mabungwe ghakwimikana na vimbundi, chifukwa mu 2018, Transparency International yikaŵika Cameroon pa malo 152.

Chipani cha Democratic Movement cha President Biya cha Cameroon People's Democratic Movement (CPDM) ndicho chikaŵa chipani pera icho chikaŵa na wanangwa wa ndyali m'paka mu Disembala 1990. Kufuma waka pa nyengo iyi, magulu ghanandi gha ndyali gha mu vigaŵa ivi ghapangika. Chipani cha Social Democratic Front (SDF) ndicho chikususka chomene ndipo chikulongozgeka na John Fru Ndi.

Biya na chipani cake ŵakalutilira kuwusa pa udindo wa pulezidenti na pa Nyumba ya Malango mu mavoti gha caru cose, agho ŵalwani ŵake ŵakuti ghakaŵa ghambura urunji. Wupu wakuvikilira wanangwa wa ŵanthu ukuti boma likukanizga wanangwa wa magulu ghakwimikana na boma mwa kukanizga vipharazgo, kunanga maungano, na kukora ŵalongozgi na ŵapharazgi. Ŵanthu awo ŵakuyowoya Cingelezi ndiwo ŵakutambuzgika comene; kanandi para ŵanthu ŵakususkana ŵakuŵa na vivulupi na kukoma ŵanthu. Mu 2017, Pulezidenti Biya wakajara Intaneti mu chigaŵa cha Chingelezi kwa mazuŵa 94, ndipo ŵanthu mamiliyoni ghankhondi ŵakasuzgika, kusazgapo mabungwe gha Silicon Mountain.

Bungwe la Freedom House likuti charu cha Cameroon "ntchakufwatuka yayi" pa nkhani ya wanangwa wa ŵanthu. Chisankho chatha cha nyumba yamalamulo chinachitika pa 9 February 2020.

Pulezidenti Biya wali mu nkhondo ya vilimika vinandi na boma la Nigeria cifukwa ca kutora malo gha Bakassi. Charu cha Cameroon na Nigeria vili na mphaka ya makilomita 1,600 ndipo vikususkana pa nkhani ya chigaŵa cha Bakassi. Mu 1994, caru ca Cameroon cikapempha Khoti la pa Caru Cose kuti limare suzgo ili. Mu 1996, vyaru viŵiri ivi vikayezga kuti vilekane nkhondo, kweni nkhondo yikalutilira kwa vyaka vinandi. Mu 2002, khoti la ICJ likadumura kuti phangano la Britain na Germany ilo likachitika mu 1913, likapeleka wanangwa ku Cameroon. Khoti likadumura kuti vyaru vyose viŵiri vifumemo mu caru ici ndipo likakana kupempha kwa Cameroon kuti wapeleke malipiro cifukwa ca kukhalamo kwa nyengo yitali kwa Nigeria. Mu 2004, Nigeria yikatondeka kufiska nyengo yakutemeka yakupelekera malo agha. Pa ungano uwo ukacitika mu Juni 2006, uwo ukacitiskika na wupu wa UN, pakaŵa phangano lakuti Nigeria yifumemo mu cigaŵa ici. Kuwuskako na kupeleka mazaza kukamara mu Ogasiti 2006.

Charu ichi chili pafupi na Nigeria na Nyanja ya Atlantic kumanjiliro gha dazi; Chad kumpoto kwa kumafumiro gha dazi; Central African Republic kumafumiro gha dazi; Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, na Republic of Congo kumwera.

Cameroon wali kugaŵika vigaŵa vinkhondi vikuruvikuru ivyo vikumanyikwa na malo ghake, nyengo yake, na vyakumera. Chigaŵa cha mumphepete mwa nyanja chili na mtunda wa makilomita 15 m'paka 150 (9 m'paka 93 mi) kufuma ku Gulf of Guinea ndipo chili na mtunda wa mamita 90.

Chuma na vyakuzenga

GDP ya ku Cameroon pa munthu yumoza (Purchasing power parity) yikayaniskika na US$3,700 mu 2017. Vigaŵa vikuruvikuru ivyo ŵanthu ŵakuguliska ni Netherlands, France, China, Belgium, Italy, Algeria, na Malaysia.

Cameroon wali na vyaka 10 [pawuli?] Vinthu vikwenda makora mu vyaru ivi, ndipo GDP yikukura pafupifupi 4% pa chaka. Mu nyengo ya 2004-2008, ngongoli ya boma yikakhira kufuma pa 60% ya GDP kufika pa 10% ndipo ndalama za boma zikasazgikira kanayi kufika pa US$ 3 biliyoni. Charu cha Cameroon chili mu wupu wa Central African States Bank (umo muli vyaru vinandi), Customs and Economic Union of Central Africa (UDEAC) na Organization for the Harmonization of Business Law in Africa (OHADA). Ndalama zake ni CFA franc.

Ŵanthu awo ŵakaŵavya nchito ŵakaŵa pa 3.38% mu 2019, ndipo 23.8% ya ŵanthu ŵakakhalanga pasi pa ukavu wa US$1.90 pa zuŵa mu 2014. Kwambira kuumaliro wa m'ma 1980, Cameroon wakulondezga mapulogiramu gha Banki ya Caru Cose na ya International Monetary Fund (IMF) ghakovwira kuchepeska ukavu, kupanga vyamahara, na kusazgirako cuma. Boma la Russia lachitapo kanthu kuti likhozge vyalo vya ŵanthu awo ŵakwendakwenda.

Pafupifupi 70% ya ŵanthu awo ŵakakhalanga mu minda iyi, ndipo mu 2017 ŵalimi ndiwo ŵakapanganga 16.7% ya GDP. Ŵalimi ŵa mu chigaŵa ichi ndiwo ŵakulima chomene.

Mu vigaŵa vya kumwera kwa Cameroon, ŵanthu ŵakupanda khofi, shuga, na hona. Mu vigaŵa vya kumanjiliro gha dazi, khofi ni vyakurya vyakuzirwa chomene, ndipo kumpoto, vyakumera nga ni thonje, phere, na mpunga vikupambika makora. Mu 2004, ku Cameroon ŵakamba kupanga thonje lakufuma ku vyakumera vya Fairtrade.Fairtrade International, University of Greenwich and Institute of Development Studies, Fairtrade Cotton: Assessing Impact in Mali, Senegal, Cameroon and India, published May 2011, accessed 31 August 2021left|thumb|Dutch bulls and cows at Wallya community during the rainy season in Cameroon
Viŵeto vikuŵikika mu caru cose. Ŵanthu 5,000 ŵakugwira nchito yaulovi ndipo chaka cilicose ŵakurya matani ghakujumpha 100,000 gha vyakurya vya mu nyanja.

Nkhorongo ya kumwera kwa caru ici yili na makuni ghanandi comene, agho ghakukwana 37% ya caru cose ca Cameroon. Kweni malo ghanandi gha mu nkhorongo agha ngakusuzga kufika. Kuzenga makuni, uko ŵanthu ŵakufuma ku vyaru vinyake ndiwo ŵakuchitako, kukovwira boma kusanga ndalama zakukwana madola 60 miliyoni pa chaka (kwambira mu 1998), ndipo malango ghakukhumba kuti makuni ghakhalenge makora. Ndipouli, nchito iyi njimoza mwa nchito izo zilije malango ghanandi mu Cameroon.

Mu 2017, makampani ghakupanga vinthu ghakapanga pafupifupi 26.5% ya GDP. Vigaŵa vyakujumpha 75 peresenti vya mafakitale gha ku Cameroon vili ku Douala na Bonabéri. Charu cha Cameroon chili na vinthu vinandi vyakututuŵa, kweni vikuguliskika viŵi yayi. Kufumira waka mu 1986, mulimo wa kunozga mafuta wachepa, kweni uwu ni msonkho ukuru comene mwakuti ukukhwaska comene cuma. Mlonga wa kumwera uli na majigha na maji ghakututuka, kweni malo agha ndigho ghakovwira kupanga magesi na kupeleka nkhongono ku vyaru vinandi. Mlonga wa Sanaga ndiwo ukupeleka nkhongono ku malo ghakurughakuru gha magesi agho ghali ku Edéa. Magesi ghanyake ghose agho Cameroon wakugwiliskira nchito ghakufuma ku mafuta. Vigaŵa vinandi mu caru ici vicali vyambura magesi.
