The Luo language (Kasabe) is an extinct language of Cameroon, formerly spoken around Mambila in the Nyalang area, spoken in a section of the Atta region of Cameroon. The last speaker, a man named Bogon, died on 5 November 1995; he was said to be "well over" 100 years old at the time of his death. One of Bogon's sisters survived him but she reportedly did not know the language.
