Cameroon – Hugues Seumo’s Texticules: 44 Years of Paul Biya in Power, a Shameful Longevity

Hugues Seumo condemns Paul Biya’s 44 years in power, calling them a “shameful longevity.” He says Cameroonians have endured an authoritarian and tribalist government for many years, as living costs rise and poverty spreads in cities. In his view, misery, social injustice, lack of freedom and the denial of the rule of law ultimately fuel popular protest.
