Sweet Banana Ham

Sweet Banana Ham.
Ladymelisse Nambangi wrote, "The 'ham' in this song is the Cameroonian equivalent of the American 'yum' said in appreciation of food :-). In fact, Cameroonians rarely use the word ham (nor bacon, for that matter) for any piece of pork, especially since we eat just the fresh pork."
Many thanks to Ango Fomuso Ekellem for contributing this song and to Ladymelisse Nambangi for her explanation of the meaning of the word "ham" in Cameroon.
