From Wikipedia
Akum is a Plateau language of Cameroon and across the border in Nigeria, where it is known as Shibong.
Phonology
Consonants
Many consonants also have palatalized and labialized variants, but due to a lack of documentation it is unknown whether or not these are phonemic. Only /r/, /b/, /g/, /m/, /n/, and /ŋ/ occur at the end of a syllable, and /ŋ/ only occurs in this position.
Vowels
/ə/ and /ɛ/ may be allophones.
Tone
Akum has three tones: high, mid, and low.
