Ngambé

Ngambé lies in the forest country north of the Sanaga River, among communities of the Babimbi branch of the Bassa people. Bassa traditions remember families crossing the Sanaga and settling in different parts of the forest, while others moved toward the upper Nkam. Their histories are preserved through the stories of clans and villages, passed from one generation to the next. Forest and river form the setting of this part of the Bassa country.
