The people of Limbe, under the leadership of their paramount chief, HRM Ikanea John Elufa Manga Williams, came together on Friday and Saturday to celebrate their rich culture and traditions in grand style.

The crowd-pulling event showcased the deep cultural heritage of Limbe, which, according to their chief, binds them together even stronger than family ties. The Royal Cultural Festival of Limbe (ROCULF 2025) marked a significant improvement from last year’s edition, offering a more vibrant and engaging experience.

A Celebration of Culture and Heritage

A variety of activities highlighted the festivities, including a sports walk, an ecumenical service, a canoe race, traditional wrestling, tug-of-war, traditional dances, and folklore performances, among others.

Limbe, located on Cameroon’s coastline, boasts natural landmarks like the Atlantic Ocean and the botanical garden. These features shape and define the customs and traditions of the town, known as the “Town of Friendship”.

As part of this year’s celebrations, now in its third edition, various quarters within Limbe participated in a canoe race, a significant cultural tradition tied to their maritime heritage. At the beachfront, spectators also enjoyed the traditional wrestling matches, which served as both a form of entertainment and a demonstration of cultural strength.

Showcasing Tradition and Community Spirit

Following the beachfront activities on the second day, the celebrations continued at the jungle village inside the botanical gardens. Here, several traditional dances were performed, and community members showcased their unique farm produce, traditional attire, and artistic creations to the paramount chief.

Upon arriving at the jungle village on Saturday, the paramount chief toured the different stands, offering words of encouragement to the exhibitors.

HRM John Elufa Manga Williams addressed the gathering and emphasised that ROCULF 2025’s uniqueness does not overshadow other cultural festivals in the Southwest Region or Cameroon as a whole.

“This difference is, I mean, one that showcases our uniqueness as a peaceful and loving people who are ready to accommodate all and sundry. That is why the city of Limbe and the royal chiefdom are always a first port of call for any diplomatic or government official who understands the importance of culture,” he stated.

The 3rd edition of ROCULF celebrated unity and progress with the theme “Cultural Diversity for Unity and Progress”. The event honoured culture and tradition while celebrating the people of Limbe and their achievements.

The festival drew the presence of several traditional dignitaries, invited guests, and Limbe sons and daughters from both within the country and abroad. To HRM, this year’s edition was a massive success, reinforcing the cultural pride and solidarity of the people of Limbe.
