According to the Association for the Social and Cultural Development of the Mbororo (Mboscuda), between 2015 and 2019, more than 300 Mbororo were taken hostage in Adamawa. Seventy of them were killed, about thirty were delivered by the army. For the rest, the payment of a ransom of nearly 2 billion made it possible to free them.
