The southern bantoid language is spoken by a vanishing number of speakers in the province of Bandundu and belongs to the Niger-Congo language family . It is increasingly being supplanted as a mother tongue by French , which is the official language in the Congo.
It has certain relationships with the Boma language , although Boma is a single language from the Bantu language group.
