After honoring the memories of some in August 2023, today was the turn of Haman LAWAL.
This 6th Lamido of Kalfou, who reigned from 1894-1902, did not only resist the Germans for the freedom of his people but particularly for the preservation of the lamibe tradition and the Cameroonian cultural identity.

The great grand son Yerima IBRAHIM ABDOULAHI held back no word of appreciation to the government through the MINAC for the honor given to the memory of their father.
The Minister of Arts and Culture in his speech encouraged the community to continue in the legacy left behind by this great figure particularly in the preservation of the cultural heritage and the Lamibé culture.
