Cameroon President Paul Biya has served as the President for 42 years since November 1982. He also served the country as the Prime Minister for 7 years from 1975 to 1982 before then.
Once again, Biya of Cameroon is set to contest the country’s next presidential election despite his current age at 91.
So far he has been coined “Africa’s longest serving president”.
He will contest in the 2026 Presidential Election to seek an eighth term, and by then would be 93 years old.
The report from the state authorities have revealed that opposition politicians may not be allowed to contest, leaving Biya free to win again and serve for another 7 years.
