      "question": "What is the country code for Cameroon?",

    },
    {
      "question": "Which prefixes are mobile numbers in Cameroon?",
      "answer": "Mobile numbers start with 24, 62, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68 or 69 in national form; the mobile regular expression on this page gives the exact ranges (example: 6 71 23 45 67). The carrier table shows which prefix blocks were allocated to which operator."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can a mobile number in Cameroon be ported to another carrier?",
      "answer": "Yes. Cameroon has mobile number portability, so a prefix tells you the carrier a number was originally allocated to, not necessarily the one serving it today. Only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) answers that."
