Safety

It is difficult to travel outside the country for any reason. Carjackers are continuously on the lookout for the next vehicle to hijack, particularly on the Maroua route north of the city. Rural police officers have been stationed between Maroua and the Chadian border to combat the carjackers' attacks. Because this is an African country, it's reasonable if there's insecurity, conflict, or robberies.

It is also critical to have a reliable method of communication with loved ones and security forces, such as mobile phones, radio, and satellite.
