Franck Biya a few steps from Etoudi [RETRO]

Franck Biya a few steps from Etoudi [RETRO] The display of which it is the object in recent days does not go unnoticed Paul Biya has been re-elected for the next 7 years at the helm of the state. But at age 85 and after 36 years of power, who would not think of the future with all the guarantees that this implies? There is the question. It has probably not escaped these days to different observers, the ride that revolves around the first son of Paul Biya, Franck Biya. Usually hidden, living almost incognito, almost never talked about, the 47-year-old is more and more the tip of his nose in the limelight. We have the impression that we put it little by little in orbit. On November 6, the importance given to him by his father during the oath did not escape the watchful eye of Cameroonians. Present with Paul Biya for the circumstance (which was normal), he especially enjoyed a certain proximity with it. On the red carpet, he was one step behind his father. When Paul Biya finishe

Cameroon Ranked World’s Second Worst Journalists’ Prosecuting Country

Cameroon Ranked World’s Second Worst Journalists’ Prosecuting Country The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), has placed the Republic of Cameroon as the second worst prosecutor of journalists in the world. The Central African country comes only behind Eritrea, ranked first. According to CPJ, Cameroon detained as many as seven journalists in 2018.

A political prisoner of Paul Biya forgotten in prison

In the aftermath of the "presidential election", the electoral heist, the blind repression of the resistance in Cameroon, let us not forget the political prisoners of Cameroon of Paul Biya, including Urbain Olanguena, former Minister of Health, who has been arbitrarily detained since March 31, 2008.
