Fally Ipupa, the Congolese star, is scheduled to return to Cameroon in December 2026 for two concerts in Douala and Yaoundé, celebrating his twenty-year career. Over the past decade, he has made multiple visits to Cameroon, including performances in Douala, Yaoundé, Bafoussam, and Bamougoum, at public events, private shows, and during the Africa Cup of Nations.
