SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND GEOGRAPHICAL EFFECTS
Population movement refers to the widespread displacement of ethnic and tribal groups from one geographical region to another in the course of the 19th Century in Cameroon.
Before the 19th Century, migration was mainly voluntary but during the 19th century, most migrations were involuntary.
The general direction of movement was from the north to the south and movement was often in waves or groups.
The ethnic or tribal groups that often migrated included the Bantu, (These are people of the Coastal region of Cameroon and the include the Duala, the Bakweri, the Bafaw, the Balong etc They occupy the present day South West and Littoral regions of Cameroon.) .
Semi- Bantu (the semi-Bantu generally refers to as the Western Grassland that is the North West, West and part of the South West regions of present day Cameroon. It is inhabited by origin such as the Chamba, the Tikar, the Widikum, and the Aghem etc.) and the Fulani.
These migrations were caused by either push factors involuntary or forceful factors that compelled people to move) or pull factors (voluntary or attractive factors that encouraged people to move).
