Medical usage
In Cameroon, women traditionally crushed cannabis leaves and applied them to the abdomen to relieve the pains of women in labor,[2] inserted cannabis into the vagina to maintain dry friction for their lover, and mixed cannabis with oil as a hair tonic to stimulate growth.[3]
In 2001, the BBC reported that Cameroon would legalize medicinal cannabis, but import its supply from Canada.[4]
Trafficking
Douala Airport and Yaoundé Airport in Cameroon served as transit hubs for cannabis export to Europe, both locally produced cannabis as well as product from DRC and Nigeria.[5]
