Cameroon's President Paul Biya has announced his intention to run in the 2025 presidential elections. He made this statement via his social media account.
In his address, the head of state highlighted key issues facing the country and expressed readiness to continue serving, drawing on his vast experience.
Paul Biya has been leading Cameroon since 1982 and is currently 92 years old. This places him among the oldest and longest-serving presidents in the world.
The next presidential election in Cameroon is scheduled for October 12, 2025. The vote will be held in a single round, and the candidate with the most votes will be declared the winner. The presidential term lasts 7 years.
Notably, in 2008, Biya abolished constitutional term limits, allowing him to run for office an unlimited number of times.
He last ran in 2018, winning with 71.28% of the vote. However, the opposition and civil society representatives claimed there were widespread violations and questioned the legitimacy of the results.
Now, observers are curious about how influential the elderly Biya will remain on the political stage. Will there be change in Cameroon? Time will tell. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
