In Africa, ethnic conflicts were the main forms of political instability in the multi‐ethnic societies during second half of twenty century and the beginning of the new century. The North West Region of Cameroon is a multi‐ethnic region and is one of the main  theatres  for  ethnic  tension  in  the  country.  The  ethnic  conflict  in  this  region  reflects  not  only  relations  between  the indigenous  peoples  in  the  region,  but  is  also  a  treat  to  national  unity.  The  relative  absence  of  industries  and  growing unemployment  has  thus  resulted  in  agrarian  overpopulation  and  underemployment.  This  situation  has  aggravated  the struggle  for  land and competition  for  the  limited number of privileged and  lucrative positions  in  the  local administrations between members  of  the  different  ethnic  groups.  From  this  perspective,  this  paper  appraises  the  root,  evolution,  and  the impact  of  boundary  conflict  between  Balikumbat  and  Bafanji  with  reference  to  the  T‐junction  perspective  as  key  site  of contestation, and thus an integral aspect of conflict among the local population. This paper also illustrates the social context of  ethnic  conflict  in  multi‐ethnic  societies  given  the  varied  nature  of  various  ethnic  conflicts  in  the  region  and  the  deep historical  roots.  Data  were  derived  from  primary,  secondary,  and  alternative  sources.  However,  the  author  adopted  the content analysis based on logical deduction and analysis of the available data. In sum, the study found out that the dominant causes of the conflict include ethnic differences, land grasping, and political power.
