Its headquarters is in Mundemba and other major towns include Ekondo Titi, Bamusso, Isangele, Toko, Bekora and Dikome Balue. A total of nine municipalities (Bamusso, Dikome Balue, Ekondo Titi, Idabato, Isangele, Kumbo Abedimo, Kumbo Itindi, Mundemba and Toko) make up the division and spread across an estimated surface area of about (25% of the region).
