On the plain of Mamfe is found a group of people who practice slavery and slave trade from 1900 to 2010. Examining the atmosphere and heritage, much could be seen to have control and contributed to the legacy. Decent of slaves remain victims of harmful prejudices. For instance, a man of a slave origin cannot marry nor have as spouse a girl from the free family. It is therefore interesting to know how people became slave in that area or in the society of Mamfe. This paper actually describes the circumstances in which free people lost their freedom and become slaves. Also, this paper explains methods that can be use to combats enslavement.
