Mafa people

The Mafahay, a Mafa tribe, migrated from Roua and Sulede (which is west of Durum (Mofu proper)), towards the northwest.

Together with many other languages of other African peoples (such as Mada, Wuzlam (Uldeme), Muyang and Ɗugwor (Dugur)), they form part of the Mafa-south sub-group.

In the dry season between December and May, livestock is allowed to roam free, so he can consume crop residues and leaves of wild bushes.

The intensity and ingenuity of Mafa nutrient management is illustrated by the fact that termites are used to digest harvest residues and then fed to the Chickens.
