British Southern Cameroon for decades are been marginalized by the dominant Francophone population which has culminated to the feeling of been assimilated.

Again, British Southern Cameroon are technically not represented in decission making in the Country, they are relegated to the back. Self Conciousness and the search for identity have culminated to the formation of Anglophone Movements such as: Southern Cameroon Restoration Movement (SCARM), Anglophone Movement (AM), Southern Cameroon National Council (SCNC), Southern Cameroon Youth League (SCYL). The formation of these groups is to fight against marginalization and to come into a concession with the Cameroon Government, if this fails then seccesssion will be resorted to as the best option. In this research, the United Nation is blame for being the cause of Anglophone marginalization problem and thus the United Nations is call to visit the isssue for a lasting solution.
