The Mbos are a large ethnic group in present day Cameroon and an
important and powerful group until the Anglo-French partition. Following
the defeat of the colonial power, Germany, in the First World War (WWI),
the League of Nations in a March 1916 Mandate, partitioned the territory
into two unequal halves among the victorious imperial powers of England
and France, to be governed in trust as from 1922. As a result of the
partition, the Mbos, who happened to find themselves right along the
lines of division, were thrust under French and English administration,
respectively Roughly two thirds of the Mbos found themselves in what had
then become French (East) Cameroon, while the remaining one third was
thrust under British (West) Cameroon rule. Today the Mbos, as a whole,
occupy parts of the Littoral and Western (Francophone) and Southwest
(Anglophone) regions of Cameroon. While the Francophone Mbos have,
over the decades, benefited from all aspects of economic, social, political,
and agricultural development, the Anglophone Mbos have been isolated and
deprived of all the outward and physical (tangible) aspects of socio-economic
and political progress. The persistence of such colonial divisions makes for
inequality among the Mbos, despite their common ancestiy, ethnicity and
cultural heritage. This book seeks to update on diverse aspects of the study
conducted on the British Mbos by J.W.C. Rutherfoord and others as a first
step toward a comprehensive publication on the Anglophone Mbos.
