Oblo is a poorly attested, unclassified, and possibly extinct language of northern Cameroon. It was assumed to be one of the Adamawa languages, but hasn't been included in recent classifications.

Oblo is, or was, spoken in a tiny area including Gobtikéré, Ouro Bé, and Ouro Badjouma, in Pitoa, Bénoué Department. (Note: the map in Ethnologue shows it in Mayo-Rey Department, possibly an error.)
