His Royal Highness the 11th Fon of Bafut is a most gracious gentleman, who has various ceremonial duties. He is well respected by his subjects and when he makes a proclamation they take notice. I was received by him on my third day in Bafut and presented him with a gift of smoked salmon, which you see him holding here. The mayor is in the picture too. This Fon has 7 wives who generate their income from tourists visiting the palace.Apparently his father had about 50 wives.
