Elections to the French National Assembly were held in French Cameroons on 17 June 1951.^[1]

Electoral system

The four seats allocated to the constituency were elected on two separate electoral rolls; French citizens elected one MP from the first college, whilst non-citizens elected three MPs in the second college, an increase from two seats in November 1946.
