Sango...
"Sango is spoken as a lingua franca by about a million people in
the Central African Republic, where Sango and French are the
national languages, and in adjacent areas of Congo.   It is primarily
the pidginized form of a Ngbandi tongue spoken by the Sango, a
tribe found in the Bondo area of northern Congo."
