dc.description.abstract |
The last 3 years have witnessed a period of substantial volatility in Cameroon. In 2016, protests
within the minority Anglophone regions against the obligatory use of French in schools
triggered a period of considerable unrest, in which hundreds of people have been incarcerated
and killed. Following an increased security presence in the English-speaking regions, armed
groups have surfaced calling for secession – the creation of an independent nation of
Ambazonia. In view of this escalating crisis, this article will investigate how the ‘Anglophone
problem’ in Cameroon might be brought to bear upon the African theological debate by
examining issues of violence, marginalisation and fragmentation within the two Englishspeaking
areas of Cameroon. |
