The Kadéï (sometimes also Kadey) is a river in central Africa .

course

It rises in the city of Garoua-Boulaï in Cameroon , right on the border with the Central African Republic . In its upper reaches, it also forms the border between the two countries over a length of about 100 km, where it receives the water of a large number of smaller rivers. It then flows about 250 km through the province of Est before crossing the border with the Central African Republic at Gamboula . After about 100 more kilometers it unites with the Mambéré at Nola and thereby forms the Sangha.
