Roads in Bafut


This is a picture of the main highway that runs through Bafut. The rural roads are in worse shape and often impassable to cars. That means the farmers have to carry their produce to market on their heads - often walking 5 - 10 miles. Their income is limited by how much they can carry. Food goes to waste because they can't get it to market. The sick cannot get to health centres, children have to walk miles to school.
