President
Paul Biya of Cameroon has today declared his intention to run for the
Presidential election coming up in October in the country.
This would make it his seventh consecutive terms in office,
if he wins. The eighty five year old (85) Biya has been the President of
Cameroon since 6 November 1982.
Declaring today, Biya wrote on his tweeter handle, “Chers Compatriotes du Cameroun
et de la Diaspora Conscient des défis que nous devons ensemble relever pour un
Cameroun encore plus uni, stable et prospère, j’accepte de répondre
favorablement à vos appels pressants. Je serai Votre Candidat à la prochaine
élection présidentielle.”
If translated in English, it means, “Dear Compatriots in Cameroon
& the Diaspora, Aware of the challenges we must take up together to ensure
a more united, stable & prosperous Cameroon, I am willing to respond
positively to your overwhelming calls. I will stand as Your Candidate in the
upcoming presidential election.”
