Abstract:Advocating for Anglophone secession in a predominantly Francophone country, the Southern Cameroons National Council (SCNC) purports to address Anglophone marginalization. The Cameroonian regime, however, views them as terrorists. What is the likelihood of a peaceful secession or resolution of Anglophone grievances? This article examines the role of the SCNC in the struggle for minority rights in Cameroon, in the context of a failed democratic State. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum. [Journal abstract]
