local liquor being served at FEHACU 2021

On this first day of the Bamenda III Festival Heritage of Arts and Cultures organized by the Bamenda III council under mayor Fongu Cletus, it's not just the  display by cultural groups that captures ones attention. 

Mêlu'u ma Fu` which translates to local liquor or "white mimbo" as it's commonly called in grassfield culture is being served to visitors.


It's not just about the drink being served from the traditional Calabash that wets ones appetite but the manner and conversation that accompanies the pouring as well. 


A good number of visitors confessed at the end of day one that it's the drink that kept them company throughout the activities marking day one of the festival
