Local administrative authorities in the Far North Region of Cameroon have announced the closure of the cattle markets in Kalfou and Moulvoudaye, in the Mayo Kani Division of the Far North Region, following escalating tensions linked to disputes over grazing land between local farmers and herders.

The Divisional Officer of Kalfou, Nsue Ekwede Sylvain, announced the suspension of operations at the two major livestock markets following a high-level meeting chaired by the Governor of the Far North Region on April 8, 2025.

The move follows incidents that unfolded on April 5, when residents of Moulvoudaye staged a protest, blocking the road to prevent herders from returning from the Kalfou cattle market.

The protest stemmed from long-standing grievances by farmers who accuse transhumant herders of allowing their livestock to invade and destroy farmlands during seasonal migration, sparking repeated clashes and growing resentment.

According to the press release signed on April 9, 2025, the suspension will remain in effect until conflicting parties under the guidance of traditional authorities hold consultations and agree on a peaceful resolution.

DO Nsue emphasised that the decision takes effect immediately, and all relevant actors, including law enforcement, the Mayor, the Subdivisional Delegate of Livestock, Fisheries and Animal Industries, and traditional rulers, must ensure its strict implementation.

The closure will significantly impact the economy in a region where cattle trade acts as a major source of livelihood. Locals hope it resolves the grievances of the population and maintains order in the localities.
