Welcome,<\/p>

BABAMNA Conventions held every two years are our main signature events designed to showcase the richness of the Bassa Bati Mpo’o people of Cameroon cultures and traditions.<\/p>

Atlanta 2024 BBQ and\u00a0 Traditions Celebrations Day will feature a variety of interactive activities designed to bring you in a special discovery and initiation journey. We hope it will be a great moment of entertainment, relaxation and education for you, your family members and friends.<\/p>

Take the time to read our program. We encourage you to wear a traditional outfit if you are of African descent.<\/strong><\/p>

We look forward to\u00a0 celebrating with you.<\/p>

We are very grateful of your interest.<\/p>
