Akua'a, Cameroon: a quiet town in the Southwest
Ako'a is a quiet town in southwestern Cameroon, belonging to the Southwest Region, situated in the transition zone between the tropical rainforest and the coastal plain, about 30 kilometers from the regional economic center of Buea. Agriculture is the mainstay of the town, with the inhabitants cultivating cash crops such as cocoa and oil palm, while small-scale fishing is also practiced thanks to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. The traditional Bamirek culture has been preserved in the area, and handicrafts and folklore festivals can still be seen in the villages and communities. Although Akwaia has faced challenges to its infrastructure and economic development in recent years as a result of the conflict in Cameroon's English-speaking region, its natural ecology is well preserved, and the surrounding rainforest and river landscapes offer potential for eco-tourism. As a microcosm of Cameroon's multiculturalism, Akwaia epitomizes the simplicity and resilience of rural life.
