Our Mission
Welcome to the Aghem Family and Development Association of the United States of America (AFADA-USA) website !! AFADA -USA was founded in the state of Maryland in 2001, with the vision of rallying the Aghem Community, friends and well wishers, to promote education, development, cultural and social well-being of the Wum Central Council Area. AFADA-USA is a nongovernmental, socio-cultural, nonprofit, and law-abiding Association of Sons and Daughters of the Wum Council Area, neighboring villages and those willing to abide by AFADA-USA's constitution.
The Aghem clan is composed of ten villages. Aghem is found in Wum central Sub-division in Menchum Division. Menchum Division is one of the oldest divisions of the North West Province of Cameroon, located some 85 km to the north western part of Bamenda. Authentic sources purport that the Aghem people originated from Munchi in the Tiv region of North Eastern Nigeria.
Since it's creation, AFADA-USA has embarked on a number of projects to alleviate suffering and improve the lives of the Wum Central Council Area indigenes.
