Will Paul Biya, President of the Republic of Cameroon, be a candidate for his own succession in 2018? At the present time, the answer to this question seems still a real enigma.
Several compatriots decrypting the latest acts and speeches of the Head of State seem convinced that the one who runs the country since November 6, 1982 (35 years) should indeed apply for a new lease. The latter think that the Africa Cup of Nations 2019 that Cameroon insists on organizing despite the many skepticisms in the legs of the leaders of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) should constitute for the “homme lion“, an argument for a decisive campaign.
