Abstract
The Republic of Cameroon today torn apart by a seemingly failing effort of integration was established by reunifying two former factors of German Kamerun in 1961. This created in the new republic two constitutional identities; the Anglophone and the Francophone each made of an area and a people having been governed by the United Kingdom and France respectively under international supervision since the end of the First World War. The ensuing reunifying constitution made integrating these factions capital. This integration, the Anglophone faction have recurrently blamed for being bias as it subjected them to marginalisation. In this paper, note is taken of the array of literature on marginalisation to make an analyses of the efforts made by government in response to the expressions of marginalisation as decried by Anglophones. The paper observes existing realness in Anglophone marginalisation and argues that since reunification, government has continuously made responses to the plight of Anglophones though most often, these efforts are half-baked and emerge largely as a result of resistances which are at times violent from the marginalised minority. To this extent, marginalisation has continued unabated making the achievement of national integration problematic.
