The first movement of refugees settled in Cameroonian communities, in rural villages and to a lesser extent in urban and peri-urban areas. This group largely comprised people from the Mbororo ethnic group, which shared historical and ethnic ties, cattle-trading links and pastoral migration routes with local Cameroonian communities, including for some family ties through marriage.[…]The second group of refugees was mainly from towns and cities, and settled in more urban or peri-urban areas, as well as in refugee camps. This group has a more diverse ethnic make-up, including Hausas and Bayas as well as Mbororos.
