2027 Municipal and Legislative Elections: Opposition Seeks Alliance to End RDPC Majority

With municipal and legislative elections scheduled for February 2027, several Cameroonian opposition parties are discussing a joint strategy to challenge the RDPC’s dominance. In 2020, the ruling party won 152 of the National Assembly’s 180 seats and 9,098 of 10,625 municipal council seats. Hiram Samuel Iyodi, Patricia Tomaïno Ndam Njoya and Abdouraman Hamadou Babba support coordinating candidates and concentrating votes; Ndam Njoya has invited political and civil society representatives to Douala to present a proposal for pooling forces.
