The Mundang of Cameroon

The Mundang of Cameroon, numbering approximately 192,000 people, are No Longer Unreached. They are an Adamawa-speaking people whose ancestors migrated from Cameroon into Chad's Mayo-Kebbi region, where they built a unified 18th-century kingdom centered on the town of Lere, with kin communities farming across the Cameroon-Chad-Nigeria borderlands. They mostly adhere to Ethnoreligion and Mundang is their primary language.
