What you will see
Ébolowa is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 10:43:44 local time, the Moon hides 0.6% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 10:21:31 and ends at 11:06:01, 45 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 62° above the horizon, towards the north-east, so you want a clear view in that direction from Ébolowa.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 3,230 km north-east of Ébolowa.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Az Zuwaytīnah, about 3,258 km north, where totality lasts 2 m 32 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
