Joeroland2222, please what village is this? I am from Manyu too but I really do not know the village in this clib.

i kno i cant cuz in igbo lol
ohhhh!!!! I can quit remember this sound when i was in the villageat upper bayang sometimes in the monthof March 2009. The soung is sooooooooooooooo nicccccccccccccccccccccce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Real obasinjom music. The obasinjom dancer could do much better.
Great cultural display guys. Well done. I felt so relaxed listening and watching the display and the sound. It took me right back home. Not from Manyu but similar to my clan’s traditional music (NW), close to Manyu.
You are encouraged to continue selling Cameroonian culture and reminding the diaspora about home. Will check on this when I return home in the course of this year.

Wa! Papa nice U are doing fine job out there…more courage
This music makes me remember my late wife.this was the last music i saw her dancing when i went on vacation december 2008.Baby i will always love u and your memories will live with me for ever.
The dance seems similar to the oroko dance where the shoulders are also used.
I am a bakundu hobby drummer and it is astounding how this reminds me of our songs. My uncle is married to a bayang lady for about 30yrs and the dance 25yrs ago was a little different. I heard a little was borrowed from Oroko who also borrowed the elephant dance from the Bakwernpeople. No intention to undermine this performance. Just stating how much we have in common and kudos to Bate Nico 4 his great performance.i
This is a great hit man. a perfect outlook of a typical African artistry where music, comedy and cultural practices most often are indistinguishable. good job Bate
best of the best…we thank you so much for this great obasinjom classic…we the manyu people have been longing for a classic like this…keep it up…Manyu Rising star…U are already risen and u shall rise more…peace!
ohhhhh i’m proud to b a manyu girl giv me more bate nico
Njum ekat was another thing in history as a testament to how men cheated women. In Ejagham in ancient times if a woman were to commit adultry she must do Njum ekat and tell the village of her wrong doing. If a man were to do it it is almost an honor
Wonderful!…Thanks for this piece …courage ma bros
courage my bros like is
when ever i listen to this song i cant resist the beatings, proud to come from this part of cameroon. good job i like this
