Bangandu (Bàngàndò) is a Gbaya language of Cameroon and CAR.
There are two populations: Bangandu proper, in Cameroon, and Ngombe (Ba(n)gando-Ngombe, Ngombe-Kaka) clustered around Mambéré-Kadéï Prefecture across the border in the Central African Republic. There are several populations called Ngombe, and it is not clear to which the spurious ISO code for Ngombe belongs.[4]
