Mbororo tribe

One of the most fascinating tribes in this region of Cameroon is undoubtedly the Mbororo, a nomadic cattle-breeding ethnic group that preserves its traditional culture. They also maintain the custom of decorating the face and part of the body with beautiful and complex tattoos that mark the social class and marital status of the wearer.
